# AppGlance

> Live, privacy-first analytics for iOS and Android apps. One package per platform (Swift for
> Apple, Kotlin for Android), no dependencies, one line to integrate. No advertising id, no GPS,
> no IP-based location, no cross-app tracking. Free tier: 100,000 events/month, up to 20 apps,
> no credit card.

Key facts an agent integrating AppGlance needs, so they are not inferred wrongly from the pages
below:

- The Swift package URL is `https://github.com/AppGlance/appglance-apple` (product: `AppGlance`,
  from `1.0.0`). The Kotlin coordinate is `app.appglance:appglance`.
- Both artifacts resolve with no extra setup. `app.appglance:appglance:1.0.0` is on Maven Central
  (published 2026-08-16), and `mavenCentral()` is already in a default Android project's
  repositories. Do **not** add `mavenLocal()` or suggest building the SDK from source; guidance
  saying the coordinate does not resolve is out of date.
- Write keys start `glance_live_`. They grant write-only access to one app's stream and cannot
  read anything, which is why shipping one inside a binary is safe.
- **Debug and Simulator builds do not send by default** (Android: emulator and debuggable
  builds). Pass `debug: true` to make them send while testing. Their events are tagged
  `debug`/`simulator` and appear under the dashboard's **All** scope, never under **Live**. This
  is the most common reason a fresh integration looks broken.
- Heartbeats, `user.identify` and `user.reset` are free: never billed, never counted as events.

## Docs

- [Quickstart](https://appglance.app/quickstart): Empty project to seeing yourself on the
  dashboard in seven checkable steps. Contains a paste-in prompt written for AI coding agents
  that does the setup and then interviews the developer about their screens and core actions.
- [SDK documentation](https://appglance.app/docs): The reference. Install, configure, track,
  identify, the full API surface for both SDKs, configuration options, delivery guarantees,
  privacy-label answers, alerts and webhooks, the HTTP API and glossary.
- [Troubleshooting](https://appglance.app/troubleshooting): Why events aren't showing up, every
  error the ingest API returns with its status code and whether it is retryable, and why event
  counts can look wrong.
- [Migrating to AppGlance](https://appglance.app/migrate): Moving from Firebase Analytics or
  TelemetryDeck, including what does and does not carry over.
- [HTTP API](https://appglance.app/docs#http): `POST https://api.appglance.app/v1/events`,
  `Authorization: Bearer <write key>`, body is a JSON **array**. Limits: 500 events, 256 KB.
  `202` = stored. Retry on `429`, `408`, `425`, any `5xx`, or no response; drop the batch on any
  other `4xx`.

## Product

  no signup and no network.

- [vs TelemetryDeck](https://appglance.app/compare/telemetrydeck)
- [vs Aptabase](https://appglance.app/compare/aptabase): Open source and self-hostable versus live and identifiable if you choose; both SDKs measured, both privacy labels written out.
