Google Analytics on your Mobile Phone
June 26th, 2009 | Published in Google Analytics
With recent launch of the Google Analytics Data Export API, Google Analytics data is starting to show up in some new places. One of the most exciting places is on your mobile phone.
In the past it was challenging to keep up with your performance data while on the go. Using the new API, a number of developers have created mobile solutions to tackle this challenge. Note, it still takes our system some time to process your data, so if you're checking today's data, proceed with caution.
For the Android OS:
Check out Mobile GA from Actual Metrics.
This app is great since it allows me to quickly identify what metrics are changing on my site.
I reached out to Mike and Kirk from Actual Metrics to get a sense of how difficult this application was to build. "The GA API was very easy to use, Mike mentioned, "it is extremely flexible and allows us to get the data we want. What may require multiple calls in other product APIs can be done with just one with the GA API, allowing for higher product performance. "
For the iPhone:
Analytics App is great for accessing all your GA Data. The Google Analytics for iPhone app also has some great reporting. Finally, Ego App allows you to consolidate reporting from different services, such as FeedBurner and Twitter, all in one simple dashboard.
Note, these apps were developed by third parties, so if you encounter any bugs or issues, you should reach out to those developers directly.
That's it! Do you have a cool app you want to share? Post a comment and let us know!
