I would just like to take time out to say thanks to all those who have helped get us to this point as with out your feedback and support we would have been able to grow to this point.
Thank you.

We have just released the ability for admins to add multiple users to an account. This is the biggest functionally change since the complete recode of the core and we couldn’t be happier.
What does all this mean?
Adding the ability for multiple users allows each person on the team to have their own account instead of using and sharing one set of details.
Another feature of the new multiple persons on one accounts is the ability to assign a “User” or an “Administrator” role to a person. A “user” is person who can read all the information but is unable to add, edit or delete things. For example you may want to give access to a client but dont want them to accidentally delete anything the user role is perfect for them. An “Administrator” has free reign in the account.
How do I add new users to my account?
After selecting an account from the account list you will notice the top right menu now has a link called “Account Settings”.
In the “Account Setting” page you have will see that we have added a users panel. To add a new users just click the “Add Person to Account” link in the bottom of the panel and then just follow the steps. Simplez

Custom content types are supported by App Analytics… WOOT!
We here at App Analytics understand that no application is the same, so we are making App Analytics as flexible as possible. And that means you now create you own tracking types. We even create a short cut in the content area so you can get direct access to data.
A custom type is something specific to your application that you would like information on, like user preferences, selected options and anything else you wan to know. For example you might have a twitter application and you want to see how many tweets are being sent. Just add a custom type ‘tweetsent’ in the App Analytics web interface and every time a successfully tweet is sent in your AS3 code track your custom type “tweetsent”. You will now be able to see how many tweets you are sending. You can make any type you want and track it into our system.
Yes it has been a long time coming and we thank you for all you support along the way. But the day is finally here. We are still rolling out improvements and still have some more coming in the next few days. But we a excited to announce effective immediately App Analytics is in open beta.
Press Release:
For Immediate Release: App Analytics announces the open beta release of App Analytics
Location: http://www.appanalyticshq.com/
Date: 28th April 2010
App Analytics is the leading native Adobe AIR tracking & reporting solution for applications developed using Adobe’s AIR Development platform. With it’s simple integration, clean interface & powerfully rich insights App Analytics is now moving from closed Alpha testing into Open Beta testing.
App Analytics has been in invite only testing by over 200 top Adobe AIR developers, the move to an open beta allows anyone to register and begin to use App Analytics to monitor the usage of their Adobe AIR application. Closed testing of App Analytics over the past 6 months has seen the solution mature from a simple idea to a scalable robust solution tracking over 5 million items. Paul Sanderson, founder of App Analytics, said “We have learned a lot from the initial launch of App Analytics. We have steadily tired to improve App Analytics with the help of our users, we are very proud of the result” he also went onto say “unlike other analytics systems out there App Analytics has been built from the ground up with application tracking specifically in mind. So there features and reports in App Analytics that you cant get from a web analytics package”
Born out of frustration at the lack of reliable, robust tracking options for Adobe AIR applications, App Analytics is developed by a team of developers and product managers, for developers and product managers. This means all features of App Analytics are simple, quick and allow users to quickly and easily implement and start reporting on their Adobe AIR applications. “When we were developing App Analytics we asked ourselves what we wanted for our own AIR applications, what do we want to know about the App & the users interactions. The process then is very simple, if we wanted or needed it we built it into App Analytics”.
Adhering to an agile and rapid development methodology, App Analytics will continue to mature as more users interact with App Analytics, as requirements grow, the development team will continue to refine, polish and push the boundaries of Adobe AIR tracking and measuring. Beta users can expect to see new features rolled out on a regular basis.

App Analytics is now using Get Satisfaction as our new community forum, bug and idea tracking system. We feel that moving from uservoice to Get Satisfaction is the correct move as over the last few months we have more than doubled in size and is starting to get to a stage where we would benefit from such a system, we feel that introducing it now is alot easier than switching to it in the future.
So from here on in Get Satisfaction will now be our primary support, question and ideas channel. Do if you have any suggestions bugs, fixes, ideas or even give parse please drop us a line here: http://www.getsatisfaction.com/app_analytics, or click that feedback tab on the right.
Look forward to reading all your posts.
Thanks Paul
A few months ago Adobe asked us to change our name and URL so that it would no longer contain the term ‘AIR’, which is a registered trademark of Adobe. We were allowed a few months grace by Adobe(who have been fantastic) as we were trying to coincide the domain name change with finishing of the core rewrite. But the rewrite has taken a little more time than we would have liked. So we have decided to make the domain change now and get back to concentrating on the core rewrite. So here at Air Analytics we’ve been busy thinking up new names and we think we’ve found a great new home for us.
As of today Air Analytcs will be changing its name to App Analytics.
The new name amends the use of the word AIR , and it also opens up the App Analytics for the future. In the last 6 months we have built a great community that we hope to expand on and involve as we move forward into other areas. 
We realize some members may have concerns about this decision, and to be honest I know I am always going to feel a little wistful about our old name, but we feel strongly it’s the right choice for Air Analytics and will serve us in good stead for the future.
As of now, the URL AirAnalytics.net will redirect to the new AppAnalyticsHQ.com. Everything will stay just as it always has been, and your tracking will not be affected at all, – we’ll just have a nifty new name!
We also have a new twitter account and emails to go with our fancy new name.

So over the last few weeks we have been busy architecting, planning and developing the next version of Air Analytics. We posted a few sneaky screen shots here if you missed it.
The next release is still a few weeks away but don’t worry we will update you with release dates closer to the time. The new release is a huge leap in a new direction for Air Analytics and web applications in general.
We have also made some minor tweaks to the web interface over the last few weeks. A few bugs were fixed that you guys brought to us and also the caching issues that some of you reported have been fixed as well. Thanks again for your feedback and keep it coming.
P.S we are so really close to cracking the 1 million items tracked barrier. WOOT
On another note I also got engage to my lovely girl friend in Denmak last weekend. Which I have to say that I couldn’t be more stoked about. YAY Im glad she said yes…
