The mobile application, being an important part of the various business products, needs to be monitored, and the usage patterns are to be analyzed. Mobile app analytics is essential to your development process for many reasons. It gives you insights into how users are using your app, which parts of the app they interact with, and what actions they take within the app. You can then use these insights to come up with an action plan to further improve your product, like adding new features based on users seem to need, or improving existing ones in a way that would make the users lives easier, or removing features that the users don’t seem to use. 2. Available tools for Mobile App Analytics There are lots of tools on the market that can help you make your app better by getting valuable insights about return on investment, user traffic, your audience, and your app in general. Let’s make some mobile application analytics comparison and see which tools are the most valuable and which mobile analytics platforms you might want to use: -2Firebase | P a g e by Google - Mixpanel - Apsee Analytics Tools Features Platforms Supported Price Crash reporting Deep linking performance Firebase by Google In-app purchase data iOS, Android Free/Paid Attribution Segments Engagement Funnels Mixpanel iOS, Android Free/Paid Retention A/B Testing Touch Heatmaps User Session Recordings Appsee Crash Reporting iOS, Android 14-day free trial/Paid Action Cohorts Retention Analytics Sessions and Events Retention iOS, Android, Windows Localytics Free/Paid Attribution Mobile, BlackBerry Uninstall Tracking Segmentation Notifications iOS, Android, Windows Countly User Profiles Free/Paid Mobile, BlackBerry Engagement Funnels 3 | P a g e 3. Firebase Analytics Google acquired Firebase in 2014 and quickly integrated it into its Google Cloud platform. Firebase is Google’s new unified mobile app platform that includes a whole suite of mobile app tools to get any app developer quickly up and running. Firebase Analytics is specifically designed for mobile applications, it is like Google Analytics, but it does not focus on-screen views and page views. Instead, Firebase Analytics informs developers how users are engaging with applications. At the heart of Firebase is Google Analytics, a free and unlimited analytics solution. Analytics integrates across Firebase features and provides you with unlimited reporting for up to 500 distinct events that you can define using the Firebase SDK. 4 | P a g e 3.1 Why Firebase Analytic? • Built into Firebase, Google’s platform for mobile developers • Free and unlimited solution for mobile app analytics • Integrated feature of Firebase, Google’s mobile development platform • Automatic measurement of “first-open” and other key events • Event-based data model • Out of the box Notification Solution 4. Does it work? Google Analytics helps you understand how people use a mobile application. The SDK automatically captures several events and user properties and allows you to define your own custom events to measure the things that uniquely matter to your business. Once the data is captured, it's available in a dashboard through the Firebase console. Analytics helps you understand how your users behave, so you can make informed decisions about how to market your app. If you need to perform custom analysis or join your data with other sources, you can link your Analytics data to BigQuery, which allows for more complex analysis like querying large data sets and joining multiple data sources. 5 | P a g e Below are few events, which are captured by default: 1. App open — when the user opens the app for the first time 2. user_engagement 3. App_clear_data — you can know when the user clears their app data 4. app_remove — UNINSTALL analysis!!! Now know which users removed the app, reach out to them for feedback and more 5. notification_foreground — when a user receives a notification when the app is in the foreground and a lot more push related data 5. More on Firebase Analytics With Firebase Analytics, a mobile app will be equipped to capture the user’s footprints in the application. Based on the captured data from Firebase analytics, below can be measured: - Granular level analysis of User’s area of interest for the available features in the app - Events and impressions analysis on different sections of the mobile application 6 | P a g e - User’s session-based analysis - Number of hits in a section, which will let us know the favourite area of a User - Detailed analysis of Demographic data and app usage pattern - User’s location-based logging 5. Conclusion App growth on the playstore without advanced data segmentation & analysis is impossible. The new segmentation & funnels seem like a step in the right direction. Overall, it seems that Google has paid attention to the needs of app developers and Firebase is a good mixture of the right ingredients. 7 | P a g e 6.

Social Networking (Jan. 29, 2016 - present) Many people feel uncomfortable about social networking and find it challenging for several reasons. Typically, they are unsure of how to start a conversation with people they have just met and fear rejection. Members of minority groups face an even higher challenge due to the lack of professional networking opportunities. We set out to foster an environment where we celebrate diversity in technology while at the same time providing networking opportunities. The mission was to conquer fear and teach the benefits of networking. With the help of Google Developer Groups, O’Reilly book publishing, and other technical organizations in the community the Innovation Lab hosted several networking events. Four tech-oriented networking events were organized. In all, over 350 people have attended and fully participated in those networking 4 events. A “group field trip” on 18th March 2016 to an external networking event, the Launchpad Day Latino, was hosted at Google's NYC offices. At each of these events, we instill the benefits of meeting and interacting with like-minded individuals. Each event was unique and had its own focus and agenda. The opportunity to learn from or work with others, create meaningful relationships as well as grow personally and professionally was at the core objective of all the networking events.

    SecureIT using Firebase, Google map and Node.Js Shanta Khatun1[0000-0002-9810-5761], Fahim Hossain Saiki2[0000-0002-1416-460X] and Milon Biswas3[0000-0002-2825-8308] 1 Bangladesh University of Business and Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh [email protected] 2 Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh [email protected] 3 Bangladesh University of Business and Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh [email protected] Abstract. This paper is about describing the features of a software that was de- veloped for its user’s safety which we called “SecureIT” is a android based soft- ware using Android SDK along with Firebase and Google map SDK along with Node.Js. The aim of developing this project was to make sure and taking its users safety to a next level. Actually now a days some crime incidents like rapes, fire accidents and snatchings are very common and we believe many of those can be prevented if victim got support at the right time. According to the well known daily news paper of Bangladesh “The Daily Star” there were about 1413 women was rapped where 76 women were dead in 2019. On the same pa-per it also said that in 2018 and 2017 the number of rapes were 732 and 818 where we can easily get that the number increases to almost double in 2019. Where we get a point that if those girls get support or get people known about their location at the right time they might get rid of the situation and the number of rapes could be reduced a lot because we all know that now a days using mo-bile smartphone is too easy for people.
