- 27. Why Mobile Application Performance Monitoring (APM) is necessary ? According to a report by Dimensional Research, 49% of users expect apps to start in two seconds or less, and 80% would give a poorly performing app three chances or less before uninstalling it. The research also found that 69% of users say that poor app experiences lower their opinions of the company that created it. Moreover, research from Willowtree reveals that 49% of users say that positive app experiences increase their loyalty to the brand. 27
