GetHog is an independent, open-source client for PostHog. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or maintained by PostHog. The PostHog companion for when you are away from your laptop. Check whether the dashboard is moving, what a session actually did, or whether a flag is on. TRY IT WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Tap "Explore the demo" on the welcome screen. The whole app runs on bundled, hand-written fictional data with no account, no API key, and no network requests. Every screen below is explorable before you connect anything. WHAT IT DOES • Dashboards — browse your saved dashboards and the insights they contain. • Events and people — inspect events with their full property lists, and the people and groups behind them. • Sessions and replay — walk a session timeline and watch web replay in a native, offline player. • Feature flags — review flags and change one only after an explicit confirmation. • The long tail — errors, SQL, web analytics, logs, warehouse, pipelines, experiments, surveys, notebooks, and more. • Widgets — home screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus Control Center controls, backed by a cached snapshot. BUILT FOR A NATIVE EXPERIENCE Real iPad split views and multitasking, App Intents and Shortcuts, Handoff, Dynamic Type through the largest accessibility sizes, and VoiceOver support that is tested rather than assumed. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE GetHog has no backend. There is no telemetry, no analytics, no crash reporting, and no advertising. Your PostHog personal API key is stored in the device Keychain and is sent only to the PostHog host you chose. Nothing passes through anyone else, because there is no one else. Signing out deletes the key and every cache the app has written. Connect to PostHog Cloud US, PostHog Cloud EU, or your own self-hosted deployment. HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS GetHog is not a replacement for the PostHog web app, and it does not pretend to be. When it meets an insight type it cannot draw yet, it says so instead of inventing a chart. Rate limits, missing key scopes, and stale caches are explained on screen in plain language. OPEN SOURCE GetHog is MIT licensed and developed in the open at https://github.com/abhitekula/GetHog. Issues and contributions are welcome. You need your own PostHog account and a personal API key to connect to real data.
