Marlvel takeaways
- Review ad delivery logic to ensure advertisements do not trigger during offline sessions, as users report this behavior persists post-update.
- Monitor the rating delta as the post-update sample size increases to determine if the 0.35 point decline stabilizes or reverses.
- Evaluate the impact of the interface redesign on user retention once the feedback volume reaches statistical significance.
