Test app performance on App Live

Identify and troubleshoot app performance issues early in the development cycle.

App performance directly impacts the end-user experience and adoption of the app. App Live integrates with the App Performance Testing tool that helps you identify performance issues in your app early in the app development cycle.

This feature is available only under Team Pro and Enterprise Pro plans. For more details check out our pricing page.

App Performance Testing analyzes the app performance against several industry-standard metrics such as Frames Per Second (FPS), Application Not Responding (ANR) rate, app & page loading times, device resource usage, and more. Once you have identified these issues, you can fix them and release a performant app, ensuring better user experience and adoption.

Supported OS versions

App Performance is supported on the following OS versions:

Android: version 10.0 to 13.0
iOS: version 14.0 to 16.0
