Integrations

Sensor Tower and Slack

Our Slack integration makes it even easier to monitor app stores for events that are relevant to you!

• Empower your entire team by sending custom alerts to private group Slack channels

• Alerts are grouped to improve readability

• Custom alerts are now delivered via the Sensor Tower app for Slack app instead of Slackbot

• Mute the Sensor Tower app for Slack if you’re getting too many notifications

Sensor Tower's App Performance Insights supports custom alerts to help you keep track of significant events in both the Apple and Google app stores.

If you are new to Custom Alerts, please review the help pages found here to see how this powerful feature can help you stay on top of App Store changes. If you are already using Custom Alerts and/or want to integrate them more deeply into your daily messaging operations, you can integrate them directly with Slack via slack.com.

You can set up the Slack integration to message you directly, a private channel, or a public channel within your organization's Slack group for any Custom Alert you set up within your account.

Please see our Privacy Policy for details on how the Sensor Tower app for Slack will collect, manage and store your data.
