(In [4957]) refs #2529 added option to enable/disable anonymous tracking in settings

Great idea.

I'm thinking it would be nice to put a tracking requests limit, for example 200 requests max per "session" sent to demo.piwik.org to not overload it.

What events will be tracked? Will you use "Custom page titles" to track clicks/etc. ?

• I create an (anonymous) UUID for each user, similar to Tracker JS.
• I increase the visitcount each time the user opens the app
• I send the resolution via 'res' Url parameter

I track the following things:

• A pageview starting with '/window/...' each time the user navigates to another window. For example '/window/statistics/live'
• A pageview starting with '/event/settings/...' each time the user changes a specifc setting. For example '/event/settings/anonymous-tracking/disable'
• A pageview starting with '/event' each time the user changes the date or site. For example '/event/change-date'
• A pageview starting with '/event' each time the user presses the menu button on Android. For example '/event/build-option-menu'
• A pageview starting with '/exception' each time an error occurs. For example '/exception/$type/$file/$line/$description'
• A pageview starting with '/event/account' each time the user add/edit an account and all possible errors. For example '/event/account/create/successful' or '/event/account/edit/no-view-access'
• A outlink whenever we open an outlink (for example link to source code and so on)

I currently use the following (scope visit) custom variables:

• Exact OS + OS Version
• Piwik Mobile Version
• Default device locale + used locale in Piwik Mobile (if user has changed locale)
• Number of accounts the user has setup
• Number of sites the user has at least view access

Further possible "events":

• The used Piwik Server Version
• User opens the app (we also get the information via visit count)
• Which report the user has selected (currently I see only for example /statsitics/show) -> I'll use custom variables in page scope for this.

I've already created 2 goals

I appreciate your objections or ideas.

It all sounds really good :) I have no feedback at this stage, it will be easier to comment when seeing reports. Is there any "event/click" that is not tracked?

I think all events are tracked now. If not, I'll add them in future versions.

I currently do not track the number of sites the user has access to. Can't track this cause I do not really want to download the list of all site Id's the user has access to. Mainly if the user has access to thousands of websites... I'm very interested in the number of sites the users has access. So I think I have to request the list of all site id's or we have to add a further method to the API? Any other possibilities?

The User Agent Detection seems not to detect the browser when sending requests from a Titanium Mobile App. See our Piwik Mobile project. Browser is often "unknown". I think it works for Android, but not for iOS. Can someone have a look at it?
These are the user-agents:

iPhone Simulator
Appcelerator Titanium/1.8.0 (iPhone Simulator/4.3; iPhone OS; en_US;)

iPod Touch
Appcelerator Titanium/1.8.0 (iPod touch/4.3.1; iPhone OS; de_DE;)

iPad
Appcelerator Titanium/1.8.0 (iPad/4.3.3; iPhone OS; de_DE;)

Android Simulator
Dalvik/1.1.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.1; google_sdk Build/ERD79) Titanium/1.8.0

Android Device (Samsung GT I9100 Galaxy SII)
Dalvik/1.4.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.3.3; GT-I9100 Build/GINGERBREAD) Titanium/1.8.0
