>That puts the actual downloads for the month at 21.1 million, compared to 25.2 million for April 2016, back when the company was riding a user-growth hot streak.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the title is a bit misleading - these numbers are year-over-year, comparing April 2016 to April 2017. So it's not a loss of $1M in one month. It's more that this month last year, they had 4.1M more installs. Judging by the graph, it looks like they only dipped ~1M installs between March and April 2017.

That's not to say that this looks good, but it's not as disastrous as it seems.

It's not misleading, YoY is the standard way to do that comparison which is why it didn't need to be in the headline.
