# Additional Default Events for Goals

Create a Goal based on a default event and track daily counts, counts per channel, frequency, and more. Then make adjustments to your marketing strategies for improvement.

Goals are selected events that generate a set of performance reports. They are also used for measurement in [Holdout Experiments](https://www.airship.com/docs/reference/glossary/#holdout_experiment). 

You can create goals based on predefined and custom events in your project, and [in August](https://www.airship.com/docs/whats-new/2023-08-30-app-open-goals/) we added support for a default event: App Open `app_open`. Today's release adds support for five more default events:

* **First Open** `first_open` — User opened your mobile app for the first time.
* **First Seen** `first_seen` — User opted in to notifications or opened your mobile app for the first time.
* **First Opt In** `first_opt_in` — User opted in to a channel for the first time. For  Email (commercial), SMS, and Open channels only.
* **Uninstall** `uninstall` — User uninstalled your mobile app in response to a push.
* **Web Session** `web_session` — User generated a [web session](https://www.airship.com/docs/reference/glossary/#web_session).

Unlike custom and predefined events, you do not need to add default events to your project before selecting them for goals.
