News Plus’s founder Srini Koppolu is an eminent personality in Indian tech circles. After working with Microsoft for 20+ years, Srini went on to become the first President of Hyderabad Angels Network.
Srini was instantly attracted to KK’s vision about building a product which will help in improving product experiences. Apxor was integrated with News Plus and the team of News Plus used Apxor to get a number actionable insights into how users are using their app.
As a content based app, engagement is one of the top KPIs of the app. News Plus experimented with improving article recommendations to get users to read more and stay engaged within the app.
It was identified that the users who discovered similar news articles using the 360° feature were spending more time on the app. Based on this, News Plus decided to make their 360° feature more discoverable.
News Plus launched a Smart Nudge to guide users towards discovering the 360° feature. This was launched right when the user finished reading a news article from their feed, prompting the user to read more.
By nudging users to the 360° feature, News Plus achieved longer session lengths which translated to higher user engagement.
