Enable automatic tracking of lifecycle events (`Application Opened`, `Application Installed`, `Application Updated`) using initialization config parameters ([iOS](/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/mobile/ios/#application-lifecycle-tracking), [Android](/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/mobile/android/#step-2-initialize-the-client)) to track installs and sessions in Singular. The Singular "**session**" will be sent automatically by the integration as long as you are including the events above.


## Apple Search Ads Attribution

> note "Note"
> If you are using the Device-Based Destination, there's no need to implement the code below, as the data is already collected automatically.

To get attribution data into Singular, you must include the [analytics-ios-iads-attribution](https://github.com/segmentio/analytics-ios-iads-attribution){:target="_blank"} dependency and version 3.6.0 or higher of the [Analytics SDK](https://github.com/segmentio/analytics-ios){:target="_blank"}.

To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:
`pod "Analytics"`
`pod "Analytics-iAds-Attribution"`

Then import the header and initialize the configuration:
```
#import <Analytics-iAds-Attribution/SEGADTracker.h>

// Initialize the configuration as you would normally.
SEGAnalyticsConfiguration *configuration = [SEGAnalyticsConfiguration configurationWithWriteKey:@"YOUR_WRITE_KEY"];
...

// Configure the client with the iAD middleware to attach iAd properties.
configuration.middlewares = @[ [SEGADTracker middleware] ];

[SEGAnalytics setupWithConfiguration:configuration];

```
When iAd information is available, the attribution information is transformed to Segment context this way:
```
[analytics track:@"Application Installed",
properties: nil,
options: @{
@"context" : @{
@"campaign" : @{
@"provider" : @"Apple",
@"click_date" : attributionInfo[@"iad-click-date"],
@"conversion_date" : attributionInfo[@"iad-conversion-date"],
@"source" : @"iAd",
@"name" : attributionInfo[@"iad-campaign-name"],
@"content" : attributionInfo[@"iad-keyword"],
@"ad_creative" : attributionInfo[@"iad-org-name"],
@"ad_group" : attributionInfo[@"iad-adgroup-name"],
@"id" : attributionInfo[@"iad-campaign-id"],
@"ad_group_id" : attributionInfo[@"iad-adgroup-id"]
}
}
}];

```
Singular has explicitly mapped the `Application Installed` lifecycle event to provide the iAd Information.


## Tracking Custom Events

If you're not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the [Track method](/docs/connections/spec/track/) does. An example call (in Android) would look like:
