If you have an app on iOS, Apple App Analytics, released this past year, is a great way to examine user visits to your app. Though it’s not as powerful as some other analytics software, you can see how many users view your app and other useful information like in-app purchases and how many installations your app had.

3. Mixpanel
Engagement is an important metric for determining how well your app is working, and Mixpanel helps answer questions about which aspects of your app users are actively engaging with and which ones they aren’t responding to. Mixpanel provides A/B testing, Retention analytics, notifications, and much more.

4. Amazon Mobile Analytics
If you are an AWS subscriber, Amazon Mobile Analytics parses all of the relevant data from your app and displays that data in usage summaries that are lightning fast.
