The mobile app ecosystem is evolving rapidly, and conversion optimization has become the defining factor between apps that thrive and those that fade into obscurity. FastSpring is proud to sponsor and speak at App Growth Summit SF 2025, taking place Sept. 10 at The Midway in San Francisco, where the industry’s brightest minds will gather to decode the psychology behind successful app conversions.

Understanding User Psychology in the Mobile Era

Our Senior Product Marketing Manager Braden Steel will join an elite panel at 11:25 a.m. for the session Conversion Masterclass: User Psychology Across the Funnel. 

This isn’t just another marketing discussion — it’s a deep dive into the psychological triggers that drive users from first impression to final purchase decision.

The panel will address a critical challenge facing mobile app developers and publishers: how to create conversion experiences that resonate with user psychology while maintaining sustainable business growth. From app store optimization to paywall design, every touchpoint in the user journey presents an opportunity to either build trust or create friction.

Why Mobile App Conversion Psychology Matters

As users become more selective about which apps deserve their investment, developers must understand the deeper psychological factors influencing purchase decisions across different markets and demographics.
