Good alternatives to Google Analytics for Android?

I found the google analytics SDK very easy to integrate with some of my android apps, however the problem I have is with the web dashboard. It's not straightforward to use, and mobile analytics seems to be the poor cousin of the web analytics version. Even finding data on something as simple as user timings (which was very easy to code into the app) is difficult. I know it must be capturing a tonne of useful data but visualising it and actually getting some useful insights from it is another story...
Are there any good (ideally free) alternatives out there, where it's actually easy to interpret the data?
Cheers, Matt

There are some alternatives visualizations of the same data. Did you check out some apps for the same:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.e6bapps.ganalytics
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.co.madhur.ganalyticsdashclock
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.co.madhur.dashclock
You should really put a disclaimer: "I am the developer of this app". Your dashclock extension looks nice and simple though.
Those overview statistics like screen views and downloads are fine and a nice morale boost, but what I'm really interested in is actionable data that points to specific things in the app that need improvement.
E.g. If 80% of users leaving a certain screen after a few seconds it might point to the screen being confusing. Things like that.

Thanks for the suggestion, but there is not a function that can analyze the source of the downloading as Google PC analyze. Could you recommend another one?

If you are looking for website similar to Google Analytics you can try Flurry I don't know if you can use it on your smartphone as a Mobile App but for sure it's good alternative for google analytics!
Alternative to Google analytics
Flurry is a good option
Thank you for this, I think I'll try flurry because the analytics the google play console provides are just not enough.
just learned that Flurry has a very useful customer behavior analytics. I think we should also try this aside from Google Analytics.
Found a new analytics site that Appannie has implemented into their system, seems to be asia based, worth adding, just did with mine
https://dev.mobvista.com/user/showreg/?u=TVRVMU9RPT0=
What features do you think are missing from Google Analytics?
I know some tool for tracking your user the name
Admob Analytics:
The biggest ad provider for mobile devices, currently has an analytics platform for the mobile web in beta
App Clix
it offers developers an analytics product, not an analytics service. With App Clix, developers runs analytics through their own server environment, cutting out the ability for the middle man to review the analytics data without authorization
Bango
Bango provides identification for every user accessing the app, providing information like the user's carrier and connection speeds. You can also use Bango to drive mobile app campaigns and implement tracking for other application features
Pinch Media & Flurry Analytics
They provide a free specialized service for analytics in mobile apps. They allow you to tap into user info with the approval of the user, giving you location, age, time, session lengths and more.
Try Leanplum - they're affordable (monitoring up to 500 daily active users is for free), packed with analytics and A/B testing functionality, and their help section is amazing! Alternatively, I've also used Mixpanel, but it's more focused on doing A/B tests than on good ol' analytics.
Parse is cool platform
Check out mobile analytics toolkit - devtodev.
Relatively new to the market, has a really nice and responsive support, and own education center.
There's always Mixpanel.
Free for small amounts of data, but gets expensive at larger amounts. It's events concept is much better than GA, but the SDK can be a bit buggy.
Also, the new Facebook Analytics platform. Totally free, and has a similar events system to Mixpanel.

I think you are just not using the power of Analytics right. With a combination of custom events and custom dashboards you can track and visualize everything. I doubt that any other product can provide you anything that you couldn't easily setup in Analytics.
There is also fabric.
https://get.fabric.io/
It's totaly free, incredibly easy to include in your app and it's paired with crashlytics that is one of the best crash report solution.
The results it give are not extensive : you have daily and monthly users, new daily users, number of sessions and sessions lengths: a good resume.

You should use Gauss Analytics Widget on your Android desktop. Find it on Google Play

Offering non-exclusive distribution deals outside Playstore (paying flat-fee)

Hi there,
I am representing a European mobile publisher and we are currently searching for Android Apps, we could license non-exclusively for our own distribution channels.
We are typically paying a one-time flat-fee and we just need the rights for our own channels. So you could continue publishing your Apps on Google Play and any other App store by yourself.
Currently we are especially looking for the following type of Apps:
- Battery Optimization tool
- Motion detectors/alarms
- Fingerprint lock screens
- Walk and Text (App which makes the screen transparent by using the camera and you can continue typing e.g. messages or surfing on websites).
Besides we are also always open to any other good quality App.
If you are interested, please send me a PM.
Thx and cheers!

What Google Play is for apps, that’s Nativer for app localization

You upload your app to Google Play and the rest is done by GP: visibility and distribution to users in all the countries you want, collection of user feedback, statistics. You only have to watch the figures and focus on development.
With Nativer you build our SDK into your app, and everything else regarding localization is done by Nativer: translation and distribution of localized resources in all the languages you want, immediate user feedback, statistics. You only have to watch the figures and focus on development. The only difference that Nativer is free for app developers.
With Nativer SDk built in your app together with our localization backend your users can get your app in their own languages.
If you are a developer
We also prepared a plugin for Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA to provide automated integration of Nativer SDK. It is available on Github and in IntelliJ plugin repository.
In case you use Android Studio or IntellJ, you can make your app translated to 70+ languages and be ready for further translation by your users within a few minutes. Try it – you only risk only 5-10 minutes of your time to discover an exciting and suprisingly effective new technology.

E-bike with Android Auto - Google Play Store review

Hi,
I'm working for one company that makes eletric bikes. Currently we have an app which is used as extended dashboard for the bike and to control your bike when you are not using it. Now we are thinking of extending some of our functionality and one of our feature request would be to use Android Auto within our bike infotainment. My question is whether something like this is 'legit' (Can such an application be approved by Google) ?
Or to be more precise, here is user story request: "As a company that manufacturers e-bike solutions, we want to build bike infotainment that supports Android Auto, so that riders can run all apps that have Android Auto support on e-bike infotainment."
Thank you
If your e-bike application does not have a hidden collection of user information and sending packages to third parties, then you will be moderated by Google in the Play Market. Read about such applications on the thematic sites that are dedicated to e-bikes.
