Short answer
A reattribution window is the period after which a returning user who reinstalls or re-engages with an app can be credited to a new ad source rather than the original one. Within the window, the original attribution stands. Mobile measurement partners let advertisers set this period, which affects how retargeting and reacquisition campaigns are measured.
