Can Somebody guide me that is it possible to integrate Google Analytics with already published Android apps on Google play?
Because I have tried creating an account on Google analytics and then I connected Google developer account with it. At Google analytics I
created an admin account.
created a property.
created a user view.
integrate it with one of my already published app.
But even after 24 hours I can see nothing on Google analytics.
So Is it really the only way to write trackers in code before launching it? But as I got to some point by connecting app to analytics I think there might be a way to do so with already published apps.
I have done with iOS app, I missed in first version and then later added. It works properly. Just check time graph, there it will display always a day you can change date and can check.
To enable Analytics in your app you need to link the app to Google Play Services and initialize Google Analytics following the developer guide:
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/android/v4/#setup-overview
Unfortunately, this can not be done after you have shipped your app. It requires app update.

I am new to Google Analytics.
I added Google Analytics to my hybrid app built with react native. I used "#react-native-firebase" to implement GA into my app.
When I added my app to internal testing release on "Google Play Store Console", immediately after some time there were more than 30 plus users showed up on Google Analytics console. This is highly unlikely considering I didn't share the link. Also all these users were in United States with the event first_open_time using wide range of os version and device model.
So my suspicion is Google is internally testing my app before actually rolling out the application.
Has anyone else faced this or something similar to this before? If yes, is there any workaround on how to identify these fake triggers and not log them to Google Analytics? (I assumed that for the proper workflow with the GA these fake triggers would be hindrance, right?)
I've been using Analytics to track my application usage since a couple of years. I was suggested by Google to change the tracking to Firebase as the Analytics API will be de-supported. I changed it and in Firebase console I was asked to link my app to Analytics and once I did it I got a new property in Analytics web. Everything is tracked correctly but I want to view my statistics in the Android app of Google Analytics. The problem is that the properties created by the link with Firebase are not visible in the app. Could you suggest a way to change that?
I have integrated firebase analytics into my android project but I am not able to understand how to manage campaign tracking with firebase analytics.
Right no we are seeing only 3 parameter
direct
Not set
google-play
but our promotion is going on at Facebook, Google, Whatsapp etc sites, unfortunately, we are not able to track how many installs from which campaign.
As I know we can track by google Campaign Measurement but it needs google analytics and I don't want to add Google analytics in my project again.
If anyone has a better solution for this problem kindly propose to me.
In order to track installs coming from google adwords you have to connect your adwords account to your firebase project by following the steps listed in here :
https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/6333536?co=ADWORDS.IsAWNCustomer%3Dfalse&hl=en
Once you do so a new 4th source would start appearing under the name "google" this will report back on installs coming specifically from your Adwords account campaigns connected to firebase.
Unfortunately for Facebook and Whatsapp you have to either use deep_links when available but you cannot track from firebase directly.
I hope this answer helps.
Good luck !
I searched the web for an answer but I don't find any information about if I can add in app purchase after I publish the app in play store in a new update for the application or should I added it from the beginning ?
You can add in app billing to an existing app and I've done so with a few of mine in the past.
A point to note is that you must upload an APK with billing permissions enabled at least into Alpha channel before you can test it.
I have setup my app analytics with google analytics, there the total new users it showing 105,500 and in developer console it showing 38,500. why is there so much difference?
I would say the real reason is that the develop console only shows apps obtained through legit means ie. the play store. If a user installs the apk directly (and unfortunately your app will be available for free via a quick google search) then analytics will pick it up but the dev console wont. I'd advise putting in some sort of licensing check. here is a good starter for 10: Google Play Licensing
