Your feedback through the App Store helps shape the future of HogLens! ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **Subscriptions** | Subscription | Price | Period | | --- | --- | --- | | Premium Updates - Monthly | $5.99 | per month | | Premium Updates - Yearly | $49.99 | per year | **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Premium Updates - Lifetime | $99.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-22 This update completes the localization plumbing of HogLens: the entire interface now follows your selected language, in all 13 supported languages. • New language: English (UK) • Correct plural forms in every language • Broken machine-translated strings removed — missing translations now fall back to clear English • News: in-app announcements in Settings • Privacy manifest added • Fixed a crash when opening Settings with the app language set to Japanese or Korean • Community links in Settings now point to the support page • Smaller fixes: dynamic copyright year, corrected savings badge ### 1.2.3.2603192140 — 2026-03-20 HogLens - Release Notes 1.2.3.2603192140 Summary • Redesigned toolbar layout on macOS for a cleaner, more native look and feel across dashboards and maximized insights. • Added Korean as a new supported language, bringing the total to 12 languages. • Fixed an issue where the maximized insight view could persist when switching between dashboards. • Extended the maximized insight toolbar with dedicated Refresh and Edit buttons for quicker access. • Updated open-source attribution section with all transitive dependencies. New Features • Korean Language Support: HogLens now supports Korean, expanding localization to 12 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified), and Chinese (Traditional). • Refresh Button in Maximized Insight View: You can now refresh chart data directly from the maximized insight toolbar without having to minimize first. • Edit Button in Maximized Insight View: Quickly open the Insight Builder to edit a maximized insight directly from its toolbar. Fixes • Dashboard Switch Reset: Fixed a bug where the maximized insight view would remain visible when navigating to a different dashboard. The maximized state now correctly resets on dashboard changes. Refactorings • Platform-Specific Toolbar Layout (macOS): The dashboard toolbar and maximized insight toolbar now use a compact HStack layout on macOS with zero spacing, providing a more native toolbar appearance. iOS retains its ToolbarItemGroup-based layout for optimal touch interaction. • Updated Open-Source Attributions: The Settings screen now includes attribution entries for PostHog iOS SDK, PLCrashReporter, swift-cmark, and NetworkImage, ensuring full transparency about all third-party libraries used in the app. • Improved Toolbar Code Structure: Toolbar rendering is now cleanly separated by platform using platform-specific conditional compilation, improving code maintainability and enabling platform-specific optimizations. ### 1.2.2.2603160929 — 2026-03-16 HogLens - Release Notes 1.2.2.2603160929 Summary • Insight cards now clearly distinguish between "still loading" and "no matching data," so you always know what's going on. • Line and area charts use smoother, more natural-looking curves. • The Restore Purchases flow is now handled entirely by the paywall screen with built-in result feedback. • Localization cleanup: the broken English (US) variant has been removed; all 11 supported languages now fall back cleanly to English. New Features • "No Matching Events" Empty State: When an insight query finishes but returns zero results, the card now shows a helpful message — "No matching events — Try changing the date range, or pick another action, event or breakdown." — instead of an endless loading spinner. This makes it much easier to tell whether data is still being fetched or simply doesn't exist for your current filters. Fixes • Restore Purchases Feedback: The separate restore-result alert dialog has been removed. Restore results are now shown inline by the paywall component itself, providing a smoother and more consistent experience. On a successful restore, your subscription status syncs automatically in the background. • Localization Fallback: The English (US) locale has been removed because it previously displayed raw translation keys instead of proper text. The app now supports 11 languages with a clean fallback chain to English, so you'll never see untranslated placeholder strings again. Refactorings • Monotone Chart Interpolation: Line and area charts have been switched from Catmull-Rom to monotone interpolation. This prevents the curves from overshooting data points, resulting in more accurate and visually trustworthy charts. • Data-Loaded Tracking Across Dashboard Views: A new data-loaded flag is now threaded through the entire dashboard view hierarchy — from the chart data store through the grid, individual insight cards, and the maximized view. This enables each card to precisely distinguish between "loading" and "empty result" states, eliminating unnecessary re-renders and improving overall dashboard performance. • StableChartView Equality Checks: The Equatable comparisons for chart wrapper views now include the data-loaded flag, ensuring that view updates only trigger when relevant data actually changes. ### 1.2.1.2603131638 — 2026-03-14 HogLens - Release Notes 1.2.1.2603131638 Summary • All chart types are now available to every user — Beta Mode has been removed. • Fresh installs now automatically reactivate an expired trial, giving you another 30 days of full access. • Improved subscription recovery ensures your purchases are recognized after device transfers or TestFlight updates. • The paywall has been redesigned with a clear feature overview and a new "Welcome Back" experience for returning users. New Features • All Chart Types Unlocked: Number, Pie, Table, Funnel, and Retention chart types are now available to all users without requiring Beta Mode. You can use every chart type when building Insights in the Insight Builder. • Trial Reactivation on Fresh Install: If your trial has expired and you reinstall HogLens on a new or reset device, your trial is automatically reactivated for another 30 days. This gives you a smooth re-entry experience without immediately hitting the paywall. • "Welcome Back" Paywall Screen: When your trial is reactivated, a friendly "Welcome Back!" screen lets you know how many days of access you have. If it's your last reactivation, you'll see a clear heads-up so you can plan ahead. • Subscription Entitlement Recovery: If HogLens detects that your settings show an active subscription or lifetime purchase but StoreKit can't confirm it (e.g. after a TestFlight update or device transfer), the app now automatically syncs with the App Store to recover your entitlement. • Redesigned Paywall Feature List: The paywall now shows a clear list of premium features including Dashboards, Custom Insights, Data Export, Event Monitor, iCloud Sync, and Family Sharing. • Yearly Savings Badge: The paywall now highlights "Save 25%" for the yearly subscription plan, making it easier to compare pricing options. Fixes • Grace Period Handling Improved: Subscription grace periods (when a payment issue occurs) are now properly recognized across the app. Previously, a grace period could be incorrectly treated as an inactive subscription, potentially locking you out temporarily. • CloudKit Trial Date Sync: When syncing trial data across multiple devices via iCloud, HogLens now keeps the most recent trial start date instead of the earliest. This ensures you always get the most favorable trial period after syncing. Refactorings • Beta Mode Removed: The Beta Mode feature flag and its associated toggle in Settings have been completely removed. All functionality that was previously gated behind Beta Mode is now available by default. • Import Compatibility Simplified: The dashboard import compatibility analyzer no longer checks for beta-only display types. Table-type insights can now be imported without restrictions. • CloudKit Deduplication Enhanced: The deduplication service now properly merges the new trial reset counter across devices, using the highest value to prevent abuse while keeping sync reliable. • Paywall Localization Updated: All paywall-related text strings have been updated and fully localized across all supported languages (English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese Simplified, and Chinese Traditional). ### 1.2.0.2603092258 — 2026-03-13 HogLens - Release Notes 1.2.0.2603092258 Summary - Import dashboards directly from PostHog with full compatibility analysis - New Funnel and Retention chart types for conversion and retention tracking - Re-Sync and Re-Analyze to keep imported dashboards up to date - Migrated In-App Purchases to CTInAppPurchaseKit with better restore feedback New Features - PostHog Dashboard Import: Import dashboards directly from your PostHog instance via API. A guided multi-step workflow covers dashboard selection, compatibility review, duplicate handling, and insight import -- supporting Trends, Funnels, Retention, Lifecycle, and Stickiness query types. - Funnel Chart Type: Visualize conversion funnels with a stepped chart showing step counts, conversion rates, and overall conversion. Configure steps, window intervals, units, and ordering. - Retention Chart Type: Analyze user retention with a cohort-based grid showing retention percentages over time with color-coded heatmap cells. Supports First Time and Recurring retention types. - Re-Sync: Keep imported dashboards synchronized with PostHog. Configure automatic intervals or trigger manual checks, then review added, removed, and unchanged insights before applying. - Re-Analyze: Automatically detects previously incompatible insights when HogLens adds new chart type support, so you can add them to your dashboard. - Compatibility & Duplicate Detection: Each insight is analyzed before import with clear status indicators. Existing imports are detected with options to overwrite or create a new copy. - Lifecycle & Stickiness Support: Lifecycle insights render as stacked bar charts, Stickiness insights as bar charts. Legacy filter-based insights (pre-2023) are auto-converted. - Improved Restore Feedback: Restore now distinguishes between found subscriptions, lifetime purchases, and no purchases found. Fixes - Replaced try? context.save() with context.saveWithLogging() across the app for better error tracking in AppSettings, CloudKit deduplication, project deduplication, and cache operations. - Added analytics tracking for cache read/write errors and API error status codes. Refactorings - StoreKit Migration: Migrated to CTInAppPurchaseKit. PaywallView wraps CTPaywallView with HogLens trial logic and CloudKit sync. - Language Manager: Replaced custom implementation with CTLanguageManager framework. - Query Builder: Routes to specialized builders for Funnel, Retention, Lifecycle, and Stickiness queries. - Dashboard Model: Now stores PostHog import metadata (source ID, import timestamp, original queries, re-sync interval, capability version). - Insight Model: Extended with optional FunnelConfig and RetentionConfig plus migration-safe Codable support. - Feature Flags: Beta mode now also gates Funnel and Retention chart types. ## Apps similar to HogLens | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [AppConsol: App Sales Analytics](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/appconsol-app-sales-analytics/id6761332241) | 5.0 (3) | Free | Developer Tools | | [PocketHog: All Your Projects](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/pockethog-all-your-projects/id6759969606) | 5.0 (3) | $4.99 | Developer Tools | | [Hogit - PostHog Analytics](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hogit-posthog-analytics/id6759482694) | 4.2 (5) | Free | Developer Tools | | [Posthog client app - Phog](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/posthog-client-app-phog/id6761744097) | — | Free | Developer Tools | | [Hogalytics](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hogalytics/id6741347952) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Developer Tools | | [Hog Stats - Track Your Events](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hog-stats-track-your-events/id6753864522) | — | Free | Developer Tools | ## More apps by Patrick Diezi - ["Pladio - My Internet Radio"](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/pladio-my-internet-radio/id6747711658) - [Vocapa - Aufnehmen & Teilen](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/vocapa-aufnehmen-and-teilen/id6789586072) All apps by Patrick Diezi: https://appshunter.io/developer/1499073152 ## Related topics [matomo](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/matomo) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
