We are thinking about using Google Analytics to a free and basic way to get info on our mobile Apps. We are looking at the Analytics Measurement Protocol - which uses http post to their server. This way they can also see what usage they are getting between web App vs real app.

Has anyone done mobile analytics or have any suggestions [or concerns] on using Google Analytics??

Hi Todd,
By using Google Analytics, you first and foremost help Google to gather data. Apart from that, the instructions for developers seem quite straightforward. Besides using the API, you could also embed the GA syntax provided by Google in HTML websites on a server and call these sites from the mobile app. This avoids having to use the API and is much easier and quicker. I did this for a project that mostly used data from a server anyway.
Kind regards,
Markk

Wouldn't that be true for any third-party data collection service?

Doesn't this mean there is a market for a liveCode plugin?
