These SDKs extend Medialets analytics offerings beyond the iPhone, reflecting the strong growth in Blackberry and Android development.

Our analytics SDKs provide developers with a single dashboard that allows for the measurement and tracking of basic metrics as well as complex custom events within all of their Blackberry and Android apps (and iPhone of course).

More exciting announcements and product releases across our analytics and rich media ad platforms to come! Stay tuned.

Developers can now define and measure complex custom events within apps

New York, NY: March 1, 2010 – Medialets, the most widely deployed rich media ad and analytics platform for mobile, today extended its Medialytics offering by releasing a new Analytics Software Developers Kit (SDK) for Android and Blackberry applications. The new SDKs allow developers to track standard application metrics (unique users, sessions, average run-time, run-time frequency, etc) as well as define and measure complex custom user events within Blackberry and Android applications.

These custom events provide a great deal of insight and flexibility to the application publisher. Developers can instrument their application to capture the metrics that are most meaningful to their application and unique to the Medialets platform, developers can store a practically limitless amount of data with their custom events. For example, a game application developer can not only track what level a user has achieved in a game, but also all of the pieces and associated objects the user collected in that level. A content app developer can look beyond simply what article a user is reading and learn how they got to the page, how long the user spent on it, and if they scrolled to the bottom.

Integration of the new Analytics SDKs is a simple and rapid process – taking just a few hours to complete. Data captured through these events is then available in a comprehensive dashboard that also provides standard reporting metrics. Developers and publishers can make educated improvements to their Blackberry and Android apps based on these measurable insights into user behavior.

“Medialets offers analytics that support the high level of innovation that’s going into to Blackberry and Android apps, and go well beyond the basic metrics of simply counting downloads.” said Medialets CEO Eric Litman. “These insights help developers to deeply understand what users do and don’t do with their applications and empower them to make critical decisions about where to focus their valuable development resources.”

Developers can download Medialets’ BlackBerry and Android Analytics SDKs, along with our iPhone Analytics SDK, by signing up at www.Medialytics.com.

Medialytics measures behaviors in many of the top 20 highest downloaded applications on the iPhone platform based upon data released by Apple last week. Medialets works with developers and media publishers who look to Medialytics as a business intelligence tool to help them make informed decisions around improving app strategy and performance.

“Knowing and tracking key metrics are an important part of any successful business’ operations.

“It is still a young market, but developers and publishers alike on the platform are quickly learning what to track and how to adapt to the data they see.” remarks Litman. “Analytics are a competitive tool. Knowing more about your audience than your competitors do in this exceptionally competitive space is an important part of staying ahead.”
