Quicklytics is the go-to Google analytics app for monitoring your website traffic
Since its launch in 2011, Quicklytics has grown to become one of the best website traffic tools for Google Analytics users. A recent update brings a refreshed design and a handful of new features that makes the website-monitoring tool even more robust. Quicklytics, if you've never used it, allows you to track multiple websites as well as multiple Google analytics accounts. Once the account information is entered into the app via OAuth, you can use a swiping gesture to navigate between all your websites. The app provides the basic metrics like the number of visitors, pageviews, average pageviews and bounce rate right on the main screen. You can view these metrics for the day, week, month or a custom range. The layout is perfect for someone like me who has a few websites, but is not a power user. Power users can dig deeper and pull up customer reports for visitor data like browser type, source reports like referring sites and more. If your site makes money, you can track some of your incoming revenues in Quicklytics as well. There's even a real-time tracker that'll show you the number of visitors on your site at that moment in time. It's powerful and arranged to make it easy to dig deep into your website numbers. For those keeping track, the full change log for version 9.0 of Quicklytics is as follows: New design makes your data much more beautiful! Real Time counter lets you see how many visitors you have on your site right now. Simply double-tap on a report to filter by a row, much easier. Custom reports gives you unlimited possibilities! Many, many bug fixes, thanks to everybody who reported them! Lots of performance updates make the app even faster to download the data! You can download Quicklytics for US$9.99 from the iOS App Store. It's a universal app and requires iOS 7.
Daily iPad App: Quicklytics is the Analytics client that Google should have made
If you obsess over your website traffic and bemoan the fact that Google doesn't have a decent iOS Analytics client, then you should take a moment to check out Quicklytics. Quicklytics pulls your Google Analytics data and gives you a detailed look at your almost realtime** website traffic in just a few taps. The iPad version of the app has an attractive, split-pane layout that places the most commonly checked statistics at the top of the screen in portrait view or on the left in landscape. This section includes a graph and six smaller panes that show metrics like pageviews, visits, goals value and more. Tapping on the pane changes the graph, which now shows the data for the metric you just selected. Tap and hold on one of these panes, and you can change the metric. It's an intuitive layout that packs a lot of information into a relatively compact space. The other section of Quicklytics contains the bulk of your metrics. You can view your audience information, sources of your traffic, content information and ad conversions. Each one of these sections has between 10 and 30 variables that you can pour over. Quicklytics also supports multiple Google analytics accounts, and you can easily switch between each one with a swipe to the left or to the right. It's a staggering amount of data that you can carry around with you in your bag. There are several smaller features that make Quicklytics useful for anyone who is involved in running a website. With a single tap, you can compile a report and share the metrics for a variable like visit duration, device information and others. There is support for filters so you can curb the firehose of data when you need to look at the little picture instead of the big one. A series of tabs let you view your traffic data for today, yesterday, the month, or a custom time frame. Quicklytics is available in the iOS App Store for US$1.99, down from the regular $4.99. This sale price is available through Friday. **How quickly you will see your data change is dependent on your site's traffic. Smaller sites, like the ones I tested with, will see changes hit the app faster, while larger sites may take longer to update. In general, the developer says most sites will see traffic updates every 5-10 minutes.
