Screen tracking
UpdatedScreen views are events that record the pages that your audience visits in your app. They have a type
property set to screen
, and a title
representing the title of the screen or page that a person visited in your app.
Screen view events let you trigger campaignsCampaigns are automated workflows you set up to send people messages and perform other actions when they meet your criteria. or add people to segmentsA group of people who match a series of conditions. People enter and exit the segment automatically when they match or stop matching conditions. based on the parts of your app your they use. Screen events also update your audience’s “Last Visited” attribute, which can help you track how recently people used your app.
Enable automatic screen tracking
We’ve provided some example code below using Route observer for automatic screen tracking.
If you want to send more data with screen events, or you don’t want to send events for every individual screen that people view in your app, you send screen events manually.
class MyRouteObserver extends RouteObserver<PageRoute<dynamic>> {
void _sendScreenView(PageRoute<dynamic> route) {
var screenName = route.settings.name;
// track screen manually
CustomerIO.screen(name: screenName ?? "N/A");
}
@override
void didPush(Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic>? previousRoute) {
super.didPush(route, previousRoute);
if (route is PageRoute) {
_sendScreenView(route);
}
}
@override
void didReplace({Route<dynamic>? newRoute, Route<dynamic>? oldRoute}) {
super.didReplace(newRoute: newRoute, oldRoute: oldRoute);
if (newRoute is PageRoute) {
_sendScreenView(newRoute);
}
}
@override
void didPop(Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic>? previousRoute) {
super.didPop(route, previousRoute);
if (previousRoute is PageRoute && route is PageRoute) {
_sendScreenView(previousRoute);
}
}
}
// Usage
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
theme: ThemeData(),
navigatorObservers: [MyRouteObserver()],
home: Screen1(),
routes: {
'screen2': (context) => Screen2(),
'screen3': (context) => Screen3(),
},
);
}
}
Send your own screen events
Screen events use the .screen
method. Like other event types, you can add a properties
object containing additional information about the screen or the user.
CustomerIO.instance.screen(title: "screen-name", properties: {"property": "value"});
