Getting to Know Google Analytics SDK
If you make mobile apps or if you plan to have an app made for your business, you need to incorporate metrics. Google’s Analytics SDK gives you ways to do that for iOS (Apple’s iPhone and iPad) and Google’s Android platforms (see Figure 17-1) right from the beginning of your app process.
Some features you may find useful in Google Analytics SDK:
Easy Tracker Library: This is where activity tracking comes in. I mention needing several lines of code to track activity of your users, but Google understands how difficult that can be and is working to make this feature easier to implement.
