Mobile onboarding analytics

Mobile onboarding analytics for finding the step that costs you activation

Measure every meaningful onboarding transition in a mobile app, see where people stop, and connect each drop-off to the platform, app version, acquisition source, and later retention that explain it.

What teams need from this workflow

A generic event dashboard can tell you that onboarding changed without showing which handoff lost users or whether a release, operating system, or traffic source caused it. Mobile onboarding analytics should make the next product decision clear: instrument the path to first value, rank losses by people affected, inspect the journey, and compare the fix against a consistent cohort.

  • Mobile teams measuring signup, permissions, verification, profile setup, or first-action friction.
  • Product teams that need to compare onboarding outcomes across iOS, Android, React Native, Expo, or Flutter.
  • Founders who want actionable onboarding evidence without stitching together event exports and session recordings.

From instrumentation to a decision

Track meaningful milestones

Record the actions that move a new user toward first value, rather than trying to infer intent from every screen view.

Explore funnels

Find the costly step

See completion, drop-off, and the number of people lost at every step so prioritisation is based on impact.

Learn drop-off analysis

Measure what changed

Compare onboarding outcomes by app version, platform, source, and later retention to validate a release.

Explore retention

Start with one measurable onboarding question

Which step loses the most users before they experience value? Instrument that path, inspect the people who stop, make one focused change, and compare the next release against the previous cohort.
