Amazon has long offered reports for how your app is doing with sales and earnings, and we’re working on improving that experience all the time, with new reports on acquisition and engagement. But did you know that we also offer reports on how your app is performing on a technical level?
Meet the App Health Insights dashboard!
To access it, all you need to have is a live app. To get started:
When you open the dashboard, the App Latency tab on the Performance dashboard will automatically show.
This is where you can see how long it takes your app to launch and how long it takes to perform a desired activity (for example, starting a video).
The Latency tab features these key performance indicators (KPIs):
*Ready To Use will be unavailable if you haven't implemented the RTU metric. Check out our guide on How to measure and improve app startup times in Fire OS to set this up.
The next tab will tell you the average daily instances of foreground low memory events that led to the app being killed on the device. A foreground LME occurs if the system is short on memory after killing all non-persistent background apps or services.
The next performance tab is Fluidity, which measures Frame Drop Rate. This is the percentage of UI frames that were dropped, out of the total UI frames generated by the app.
The other dashboard available is Stability, which you can access from the left sidebar. The Stability dashboard will give you reports on your app’s crashes and App Not Responding (ANR) events.
The stability dashboard features these KPIs:
Below the trend graph on the stability dashboard are tables for crash events and ANR events, including full logs you can view.
By making use of these reports, you’ll always know if your app is running smoothly and providing a great experience for your customers. Check them often! You never know if a new update (app or OS) or a new device release might affect how your app is performing.
