PocketPlatform Analytics

Want to know how many people are using your app? Want to know which screens they're viewing or actions they're taking? You can do that! And because PocketPlatform is controlled by MinistryPlatform, you can quickly see how users are engaging with your app, right in the Platform. This means you can also leverage views, charts, and reports to track engagements however you want!

In the Platform, go to PocketPlatform > PocketPlatform Analytics. Here, you can see screen views and other selected actions (like event registrations). When users interact with your app, you'll be able to identify where they spend most of their time.
Note: Analytics events in the app are batched and sent to MinistryPlatform every few minutes. You should see analytical information in nearly real-time, but be aware that there is a slight delay.
