Dimensions

Dimensions are a type of data collected about a session. This session-level data is relevant for all other data recorded during the session.

Dimensions include data such as the current date, the country the device is in, or what version of the OS the device is running. Many of these dimensions are collected automatically.

Localyticscollects some dimensions by default.

Most screens in Localytics can be split or filtered by dimension data. Some examples of things you can do with dimensions are:

View session counts split by any dimensions such as new vs returning or device type.
Filter a screen by a dimension, so you only see data from users on a specific Android Phone.
Create charts of usage by day, week or month.

Custom dimensions

Localytics collects many dimensions out of the box. These are dimensions that are relevant to almost any application and help with application analysis. However most users will wish to collect dimensions relevant to their application. Localytics provides APIs within the SDK to define up to 10 dimensions custom to the application. These dimensions will be treated the same as any other dimensions in Localytics.

See the guide on Using Custom Dimensions for more details.
