Email and in-app messaging play crucial roles in user retention strategies, serving as direct communication channels to keep users engaged and informed. These tools allow businesses to reach users at various stages of their journey, from onboarding to re-engagement of inactive users.

Key aspects of email and in-app messaging in retention include:

• Timely communication: Delivering the right message at the right moment
• Personalization: Tailoring content to individual user preferences and behaviors
• Segmentation: Targeting specific user groups with relevant information
• Feedback collection: Gathering user insights to improve products and services
