TelemetryDeck

I was very anti-analytics for my apps for many years, but I've come round again after discovering that I can use Telemetry Deck and not have the same trade-offs I was used to. Respect for the users' privacy is by far the best thing about it, but not bloating the app binary, nor slowing compile times in any noticeable way puts it far ahead of other analytics tools from a developer experience perspective. And it turns out, it's kinda nice to have high-level usage stats to make informed decisions about which features people actually use, what % of people are on older OS versions, etc. Telemetry Deck is clearly designed to be a win-win for developers and their users! I'm planning to launch a new product shortly, and I'm very excited to be able to use TD to gain insight, and to help improve that product from day 1!

I LOVE TelemetryDeck! I’ve been using it since it was in beta in my apps, and it’s been fantastic throughout. It’s very simple to use and the support (which I very rarely need!) is great too. My favourite thing is the iOS widgets. I have a stack set up so I can see graphs of my daily active users across all my apps. I also love the company ethos of being privacy first. Until TelemetryDeck I didn’t have any analytics at all for fear of invading my users’ privacy with a big black box package like Firebase. TelemetryDeck is a tiny package that doesn’t do anything creepy in the background.

I've been using TelemetryDeck's beta on my personal app (RPGen) for quite a while now, and it's been a great way for me to get a quick glimpse of my usage analytics. I wanted something lightweight (ideally just hitting an endpoint) without needing to bring in a huge plugin/package. They have plugins for a number of stacks, but being able to use HTTP requests is honestly the best. When I was running into a problem setting it up, their founder was more than happy to help me, and their Slack channel is always active. I'm very excited to have finally found a great lightweight (and privacy concerned!) analytics package, big thank you to the devs <3 If you need anything from at-a-glance insights to customizable groupings, TelemetryDeck is a great tool to use.
