App Usage
Introduction
Nylo allows you to monitor your app usage out of the box but first you need to enable the feature in one of your app providers.
Currently, Nylo can monitor the following:
- App launches
- First launch date
After reading this documentation, you will learn how to monitor your app usage.
Setup
Open your app/providers/app_provider.dart
file.
Then, add the following code to your boot
method.
class AppProvider implements NyProvider {
@override
boot(Nylo nylo) async {
...
nylo.monitorAppUsage(); // Add this line to monitor app usage
This will enable app usage monitoring in your app. If you ever need to check if app usage monitoring is enabled, you can use the Nylo.instance.shouldMonitorAppUsage()
method.
Monitoring App Launches
You can monitor the number of times your app has been launched using the Nylo.appLaunchCount
method.
App launches are counted each time the app is opened from a closed state.
A simple example of how to use this method:
int? launchCount = await Nylo.appLaunchCount();
print('App has been launched $launchCount times');
Monitoring App First Launch Date
You can monitor the date your app was first launched using the Nylo.appFirstLaunchDate
method.
Here's an example of how to use this method:
DateTime? firstLaunchDate = await Nylo.appFirstLaunchDate();
print("App was first launched on $firstLaunchDate");
Monitoring App Total Days Since First Launch
You can monitor the total days since your app was first launched using the Nylo.appTotalDaysSinceFirstLaunch
method.
Here's an example of how to use this method:
int totalDaysSinceFirstLaunch = await Nylo.appTotalDaysSinceFirstLaunch();
print("It's been $totalDaysSinceFirstLaunch days since the app was first launched");
