I use flurry and distimo. They are for different purposes and work great together.
As for google analytics, I think it's still not so good as flurry (used it for two apps and decided to come back to flurry analytics).

Yep you're right, Google Analytics definitely isn't up to scratch with Flurry and Distimo. Flurry is free now as well. What's the cost for Distimo?
Hi, I use Unity3D. Does anyone know if it is difficult to integrate with Google Analytics / Flurry / Distimo? Also, do they work both on Android and iOS?
I found some tutorials teaching how to integrate Google Analytics and Flurry (this one just for Android) with Unity but I thought I'd ask what was everyone's experience.

Amplitude (add .com for their website) hands down. Real-time data and with a powerful and simple web interface. Flurry isn't reliable, seems to drop a ton of the events (and far from being real-time, making it even harder to verify whether all the events came through or not).

Btw, why isn't the poll open anymore? Only one response so far, which isn't useful...

This is a great topic, essential in my opinion.
It would be great if anyone can upload screenshots of the dashboards of the services that they're using to track their apps.

Is there anyone attempting to build your own custom analytics / operations back-end? We've built one for ourselves, it's robust and focused on F2P games but it took almost a year to get it done 
As for other analytic packages, GA is great, I'd also look at new companies like Applicasa, Countly, etc.

I like the simplicity of flurry so far. Its my first app I'm using it in though, so I'm not overly confident what to track except common things like when the app is started, how long in the app, how long on each level (my app is a game), which IAP items are looked at without purchasing, etc. I hope I have all the good points being tracked.

Hello there
When the OP mentioned "keeping track" of apps, he meant the use if analytics and other such tools which allow developers to see how much and how often their app is being used. What you're referring to is physical location tracking. They're entirely different things. You're asking in the wrong thread
That being said, there's no conventional way to just "track someone's location". It has to be built into the app in question, and you'll only know if they voluntarily share their location with you

We use Flurry, I am tempted to move back towards Google Analytics to track view impressions on the Google Play page.
I use Google Analytics but I can't or I don't know how to view the impressions on Google Play, it would be great to get that information, anyone knows how to see that?

1Hey!
I was wondering ... Which tool or tools do you prefer to keep a track of your app's sales/ads/profits/ ... blah blah?
I know a lot of devs use multiple tools at once. If so, please choose the one you use most. Thanks! :fingers-crossed:
Please let me know if I forgot an analytics tool I didn't know about so I can add it to the poll.
Can't see the poll.on the xda app

-Track my App1I tried viewing the posts from other browsers without logging in, but I could still view it
I am new here. Is there a visibility rule I am not aware of? I couldn't find any post on this topic.
What do u mean?1I mean I can see the poll from other browsers without logging in with my credentials as a xda-developer. Hence I can't figure out why you are unable to see the poll.
I'm using the xda app. Not a browser1So XDA app doesn't support polls or is there something wrong with my post?
(Please don't mind my chain of question .. I am a noob)
The app doesn't support polls1Google Analytics
I assume Action A and Action B are different activities.
Including Easytracker activityStart and activityStop on Each Activity is enough:
Code:[user=439709]@override[/user] public void onStart() { super.onStart(); EasyTracker.getInstance().activityStart(this); } [user=439709]@override[/user] public void onStop() { super.onStop(); EasyTracker.getInstance().activityStop(this); }
Then in Google Analytics select Engagement Flow:
If Action A and B are not Activities, you may want to track them as Events as explained in:
https://developers.google.com/mobile/articles/analytics_end_to_end#code
Code:public void sayHelloButtonPressed(View v) { welcomeView.setText("Welcome, user!"); tracker.trackEvent("FirstActivity", "sayHello", "", -1); }
