App-store competition is on the rise and it's harder - and costlier - than ever to market your app and retain users over the long haul.

With competition in the iOS app store soaring, Android offers app marketers a good deal - the cost-per-install on Android is about 27% less than it is on iOS.

Holding on to users after they've installed an app is even more expensive than getting a user to install it in the first place. The majority of apps lose about half their peak audience after three months.

Acquiring a loyal user on iOS through paid means rose to $2.16 in October, according to Fiksu's Cost Per Loyal User Index
