Firebase Analytics Tutorial - How to track Mobile Apps

[@MaikBruns]

Fantastic overview over Firebase, Julian. It's not the most common topic today but a rising one for sure. Thanks a lot fur that video.

[@MeasureSchool]

thanks Mike, that means a lot. It was quite hard to take this topic apart, since I'm not too familiar with the App world

[@marielletan9108]

This is more helpful than Google's documentation, thanks for this video tutorial. :)

[@MounirDJEMA]

Yeah :)

[@deep_sojitra]

I need more videos of the Real App. This video is very easy to understand. Thank You.

[@AndyScott]

Great video Julian. Request: how about a video showing how to use Firebase GTM for mobile apps to convert Firebase to Legacy Mobile App Tracking

[@kishansinhparmar]

Thanks for showing your live analytics data.I like to implement your CRASHING USERS :)

[@MeasureSchool]

I think that's something Firebase will report on automatically, if you install it correctly

[@rayayanakieva1468]

I'm a fresh subscriber to your videos, great work! I haven't yet tested Firebase, still using the legacy google analytics mobile app tracking. My question is about it: Is setting up event tracking with GTM for mobile apps the same process as is for desktop websites? Can I use variables from datalayer and create events with them?

[@anwarbaniamer1941]

I'm really liked the video , content , also the welcoming music is great , thank you Julian

[@Olegatorslife]

We want to know how to set up "custom events", ie events that a user performs and then gets tracked We want to know how to make a marketing campaign in the form of banners (multiple) and then be able to track them (conversions) and also analyze which campaign performs better. We also have a web view where we accept payments, we would like to create a new conversion / event that tracks all payments, both in-app and web-view. For this purpose, we will provide you with JavaScript code examples and an explanation of how the path from event / conversion setup to code installation is. (since we can not see a Tioken or key at an event when we create it there)

[@MeasureSchool]

is there a question?

[@Olegatorslife]

forgive me my bad english)), yes that's a question.@@MeasureSchool

[@michaeltolsma7717]

What is this "Bundle" thing that we need to add to the code? It doesn't work and I don't know how it's supposed to be integrated into the code? Please help?

[@FaisalNatsir]

how to track data from our landing page to open playstore and instal app, i want to count how many user instal that from my landing page web?

[@iantremblay3113]

Great video. But to use Firebase + Google Tag Manager, do we still have to install using the process you described here and then simply use GTM to manage event tags? It seems like there would be no way to actually use GTM to add Firebase to your app as you can with Google Analytics. Is this correct? Sorry for the newbie question, as a non-developer it is tricky to get my mind around all this. Also, would love a video on how to install Firebase + GTM on hybrid apps (Ionic/Cordova/Phonegap) as it seems even more complicated!

[@MeasureSchool]

You need to install Firebase + Events first, to use GTM. Then you can use Firebase Events in GTM to fire other marketing tags / functions, but it's nothing like it is on the Web. Basically the convenience factor of GTM that you have on the web is almost gone.

[@ReyTezz]

Hi Don't we have an updated video with GA4 firebase tracking?

[@Ashuyadav-fj6lc]

Events are working but same events marked as conversions & not getting tracked in conversions firebase Any solution

[@zoeynguyen8710]

[@abdullaalshafi]

Then when i press the button in the fisrt app, in the other app appear one button, then when i press that button. the button from my app disapear. How can i do that, is possible?

[@IliyasPatel]

Do you have any updated video for GA4 for mobile Apps analytics.

[@mimou_bch7215]

in order to make firebase analytics collects all the data shoud i update my application in play store ?

[@indirimdunyas9189]

Hi, I added to json code in app, but I can not see source of our event(only direct). I saw direct and not set source in events. How can ı see google/organic and google/cpc in source of event? Thanks a lot!

[@dotsovertonesinging]

Thank you for your help with Google optimise. I have a app built with Cordova, do you have a guide for this?

[@nicolasvasquezrobledo6516]

Thanks a lot for the amazing content as always ! What analytic tool would you recommend for Mobile Apps that scales better? Firebase or Mixpanel (Or another) ?

[@MeasureSchool]

"scaling better" is relative. There is no one answer for every business.

[@mgstivig585]

Cool but i have question. What if i have two separate apps that are using same application id (for google play purposes) . One is android mobile, other one is android TV. How can i configure this to only show Firebase events from android TV app, without changing application-ID from build.gradle. I think i can use FirebaseApp and initialize it with some unique string that will be same as string i will input in Firebase console when creating new app (It won't be the same as the one in application-id). But i did not found a way to than connect that FirebaseApp with Firebase Analytics object which have method logEvent. Can you help me, do you have any idea?

[@googleanalytics1122]

Hi Julian, Is it possible to check how many conversions we got from different sources? I think this is vital information in developing apps. We can check everything in GA for web page, but how to do it if we have a mobile app? There is nothing like that in firebase so maybe we shoud integrate Google Analytics with firebase if it is possible?

[@MeasureSchool]

you need to collect that information. Connect your iTunes or Play account to Firebase. You can also install ad tracking

[@socero7616]

How do I remove an event in Firebase Analytics console? Also, I"m not sure where to view the ITEM_NAME under my events.

[@dirkb806]

Hi, awesome Tut! I just want to know if you could run over the GTM implementation of this. I am surprised that you directly implemented it in the code and not through GTM ?

[@MeasureSchool]

no, that's not how GTM works on mobile. You need to have Firebase Analytics Events installed first, before you can use GTM. It's a completely different process from what we are used to from GTM on the Web

[@dirkb806]

Measureschool I sent you an email yesterday to have a look at my Stack Overflow Post, could you share your thoughts there please ?

[@jessmarkpanadero7792]

Hi. It seems that you used custom event name like Button1Click etc. I' tried to create custom event but it doesn't appear to my Firebase Console Events list. Do I need to link it to BigQuery just to make it visible to my Event list?

[@djtyros]

I'm trying to do this in Unity, my set up is good because FirebaseAnalytics.LogEvent("Begin_New_Game"); works fine! However, in unity C#, I cant create a bundle? the ide doesnt recognise "Bundle" as anything. Am I missing a "using"? I feel like im so close! thanks for any help from anyone know knows what i've missed out. thanks

[@laurentiumarin1986]

Hi Julian! I had a issue about the importing the events/conversions to adwords from firebase. I linked accounts from firebase, i ve checked from adwords to see if it s linked, so it is! Then in adwords account, when I want to import the conversions from firebase....it s empty, nothing... Notice!! In firebase i have all the events/conversions, also I can see from Analytics. Why? Can you help me? Thanks!

[@kiankianloo4850]

Thanks, Julian :) How can track Apple search ads campaign in firebase???

[@srijithview]

Hi Julian...Your advise needed.. IS there any google certification program for GTM and do you have a comprehensive certification programe...also is there any dummy site where i can implement the GTM tags.

[@MeasureSchool]

I think you can certify your agency as a Google Partner. We certify our students if they complete our premium courses, we also provide a training website to go through some exercises.

[@syarifhidayatullah8054]

Hey Julian ! Great work on this one. Do you have a link for any demo app to test the Firebase SDK's implementation?

[@MeasureSchool]

no

[@mariusfall8466]

Measureschool any chance you will make a tutorial for it?

[@MeasureSchool]

yup

[@JuliusBangert]

Do you know if the analytics suite is available or web apps yet?

[@MeasureSchool]

no, it's not

[@JuliusBangert]

So really, my question should have been... can it be implemented in phonegap? I think of phonegap as being essentially a web app.

[@NattapongPUN]

Thanks for your VDO. And how to track Notification?

are you using the notification system that firebase provides?
