### 4/5 — Blows GA out of the water.

*2022-09-09, version 2.5.0*

It’s really good, but lacks the ability to drill down to show relevant information that can otherwise be accessed via desktop web interface.
Would be nice to see multiple past visits per user and things of that nature.

### 5/5 — This App Works Great

*2022-04-01, version 2.5.0*

It is not very often to use an app as good as this one. Matomo analytics works great, and this app is tremendous.

### 5/5 — Ditch Google and take control of your tracking

*2021-11-28, version 2.5.0*

It’s nice to be able to track visitors without anyone else monetising them, something consumers will increasingly reject. This application gives you the insight you need without losing control of your customers data.

### 5/5 — Make the switch. Matomo is great

*2021-07-16, version 2.4.10*

Google analytics is the grand daddy of web and mobile app analytics, but it gives you little to no control over your own user data. Matomo is the open source alternative that doesn’t force you to sacrifice on features and gives you full control.

You will need to manage your own system to use Matomo completely free, but if you don’t have the skills or developer bandwidth to manage your own instance then they offer great service at an affordable price.

Cheers

### 5/5 — Nice easy way to check key stats

*2021-05-12, version 2.4.10*

Such a handy way to have a glance at stats, it’s doesn’t replace the desktop interface, but good for having a quick look while out and about. Thanks Matomo

### 5/5 — 🦾

*2020-06-16, version 2.4.7*

Работает без каких-либо проблем и нареканий. Удобная статистика всегда под рукой.

### 5/5 — Outstanding tool

*2020-03-02, version 2.4.5*

Love it. I was looking for Analytics alternatives from companies respectful of user privacy. 
Matomo is a great open source product. 
Highly recommended.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2020-01-26, version 2.4.5*

If only the Dashboard could be configured to show ‘Today’s stats’ automatically rather than having to manually set the date, this app would be completely perfect. As it is; the interface is clean, it’s fast and responsive and best of all, Matomo doesn’t spy on everyone like Google Analytics does.

### 5/5 — Супер

*2020-01-08, version 2.4.5*

Отличное приложение!

### 5/5 — Makes checking stats much easier

*2019-12-24, version 2.4.5*

I use the web interface for Matomo, so very pleased to find mobile app. Slick and reliable, just what I need

### 5/5 — Does what is says on the tin

*2019-04-14, version 2.4.5*

Fast, works as expected.

### 5/5 — A Great Complement to a Powerful Self-Hosted Analytics Platform

*2019-02-14, version 2.4.5*

I had just installed Matomo to manage analytics for a few projects I’m working on. I visited the admin panel on my phone, I was notified of the app and downloaded it.

At first it seemed it wasn’t pulling data, but by default metrics are set to pull from yesterday (a full day). I had no data yet. Changed the date and it was all good!

Solid app other than that.

### 1/5 — Calls for improvements

*2026-04-30, version 2.6.0*

Icon has been made worse. Some of the charts still don’t work or even throw errors due to incorrect queries.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with 2-factor auth

*2020-05-18, version 2.4.5*

Can’t properly try out the app as it doesn’t work when 2-factor auth is enabled.

### 1/5 — Forces SSL Connection

*2017-09-01, version 2.3.1*

Although SSL is a good idea, if you don't have it you can't login to your site!

### 2/5 — Nice analytics package. Really rough iOS app

*2022-11-18, version 2.5.0*

This is just not a good/usable/helpful iOS app. It needs a lot of thought and work. This is open source, but it’s not helpful to lower your expectations just because it’s “libre”. This leads to the death of systems.

### 2/5 — Множество мелких недочетов и багов

*2021-03-08, version 2.4.10*

В целом разочарован. Выглядит и работает как незрелый продукт. Почти ничего не настраивается, на стороне сервера периодически ломаются отчеты. Чего стоит только так и нерешенная проблема с правильной сортировкой денежных сумм (сортируются как текст, а не числа. Но не всегда, а только иногда, причём в одних и тех же отчётах несколько дней может быть нормально, а потом опять сломано, потом снова нормально, и так по кругу) - для продукта, существующего много лет это просто немыслимо. В общем, явно наблюдается недостаток у команды квалифицированных разработчиков. В целом, не вижу никакого смысла использовать. Рядом с бесплатной GA и рядом не лежало. Посмотрим ещё несколько месяцев и наверное снесём за ненадобностью.

### 2/5 — Multiple websites not working

*2016-02-05, version 2.2.0*

I have two websites in a single Piwik account. Works great in Piwik desktop version, Piwik Mobile stubbornly ignores the second website and shows just one. The menu structure of the mobile app is completely confusing and totally different from the desktop version.

### 3/5 — Good but keep getting network timeout errors when making large requests

*2020-11-22, version 2.4.9*

It is a good small app but I keep getting network timeout requests when showing data from a week or month.

### 3/5 — The picture data is not very good

*2020-02-08, version 2.4.5*

I don’t know how it works,but it works like print a picture,I think it’s not a good idea.

### 4/5 — A great GA alternative

*2024-07-07, version 2.5.2*

I’ve used a handful of analytics tools over the years and have generally avoided GA due to privacy concerns of my end users. However, I recently found Matomo and for the first time feel like we’ve got a solid solution that’s not sacrificing features compared to GA whole still having fantastic privacy preserving tools.

The app itself honestly lacks a bit in polish and features, but it’s *pretty good* for checking on the go. It also makes some very strange decisions like asking if you want to send your login in clear text 😂 I really have to recommend the web interface over the app but it does the job for a Quick Look at yesterday’s stats of the visit log (like the web portal though, you need to keep in mind that it shows data from YESTERDAY by default for statistical reasons but this may not be obvious to a first time user.

### 4/5 — Really nice, but needs UX improvements

*2023-02-20, version 2.5.0*

I’ve used Matomo for a long time, it’s a great project!  You get all your analytics data, instead of sampled data like GA.   

The mobile pp is fairly nice, but some aspects are awkward to use.  The date picker UI isn’t intuitive, I can’t select a date range or compare metrics for date ranges (w/w, m/m, y/y, etc).  

Hope the maintainers could devote some effort to improving this.  It’s something I miss from Google Analytics.

### 5/5 — Excepcional app

*2026-03-01, version 2.5.5*

La app está muy bien diseñada. Me gusta incluso más que la parte web de Matomo. Es cómoda de usar y te muestra la información fácilmente y de forma detallada

### 5/5 — Monitor website traffic on the go

*2025-11-09, version 2.5.5*

Matomo Mobile 2 is an excellent companion for analysts who already use Matomo on the web.

### 5/5 — Útil, auto-alojado

*2025-07-21, version 2.5.5*

Pues aunque estoy empezando a usarlo, ver todo su potencial y opciones, por el momento me parece una herramienta muy útil y que me da mucha más tranquilidad de que los usuarios de mi web no tengan que mandar sus datos a otro país.

### 5/5 — GA Alternative

*2024-04-20, version 2.5.2*

I don’t like handing Google all my clients’ data; with Matomo I run the software on my servers and choose what I need to see and what I don’t. A great bit of software and the mobile app makes it easy to keep an eye on your analytics.

### 5/5 — Matomo is Fantastic!

*2024-01-14, version 2.5.2*

I had been using Google Analytics for years across multiple of my own personal sites and several client sites. With my hatred of Google only continuing to grow, I started by switching a couple of my personal sites over to Matomo and finally ripped the last of all Google products out of all my personal sites at the end of 2023.

I’m now working with my clients to make the migration to Matomo from Google Analytics and it’s looking like they’ll all be on Matomo by the end of 2024!

### 5/5 — Très bon

*2023-12-24, version 2.5.2*

Super facile à utiliser super facile à installer 
5* bien mérité Tout est en Francais

### 5/5 — Matomo all the way!

*2023-07-20, version 2.5.2*

I’ve been using Matomo since Piwik days, much better than Google analytics. I use it with all my websites. The app lets me easily check everything I need from my phone

### 5/5 — High Quality Product

*2023-02-24, version 2.5.0*

Firstly, you own your data. This is great for PII advocates. 

Secondly, you have more visibility in your users and their behavior. Great for marketing teams. 

Thirdly, Matomo does not sample data. Every hit is a real hit. This is great for data analysts who prefer to start with population data instead of sampled data.

### 5/5 — Funcional, estable e independiente

*2023-02-04, version 2.5.0*

En la obligación que creo tenemos todos de dejar de alimentar el monstruo Google está es una solución muy buena. La recomiendo al 100%

### 5/5 — Valuable App for On the Go Data

*2022-07-10, version 2.5.0*

Rarely do you find an app, especially one that’s in addition to a open source application, that is as useful and fluid as this one is. I already love the Matomo analytics software, and this app is flawless for keeping track of my web data analytics on the go with no issues.
