Pinterest Sites. Introducing Google Tag Manager for Mobile Apps & New Google Analytics Services SDK. Mobile Apps pose a unique set of challenges for marketers and developers. On the web, you can iterate on content and features in near-real-time and deploy conversion tracking, Remarketing, analytics and other tags to measure the effects on your users. Apps, on the other hand, are effectively frozen at the point of user install. Making even the slightest change means waiting until your next update makes its way through the various app stores and even then, you can’t be sure that all of your users will update quickly, if at all. The surprisingly static nature of Mobile Apps creates significant problems. Forget to add an event to a key button press? With Google Tag Manager for Mobile Apps, you instrument your app once and from then on, you can change configurations and add analytics, remarketing and conversion tracking later – without updating your app.

Include the new Google Analytics Services SDK (Android, iOS) in your app. Going to market.
