An overview of analytics services


Some basic analytics are most likely provided by a beta distribution service (as Ubertesters in our case). When you have a paid app in the Apple App Store, it is often necessary to have detailed information, such as how many in-app purchases there were and accurate details about play sessions.

Analytics are usually a paid service; in most cases, there is either a free or a trial version. Let's take a look at two analytics services.

Flurry analytics

Flurry is a service that has been around for a few years and provides support for multiple platforms. It provides the following features:

  • Geographical data of users

  • Crash analytics

  • Play session statistics

Flox

Flox is a service made by Gamua, the guys behind the Sparrow framework. Flox is a relatively new service which is available at http://gamua.com/flox/.

Flox provides the following features:

  • Remote logging

  • Leaderboards

  • Save games

  • Session and user statistics
