What's new
New updates and improvements to Kotzilla Platform
September 27th 2024
New dashboard component metrics
We’ve added a new section to the Dashboard page that highlights the Top components requested. This section provides useful insights into your components complexity and performance with the following key metrics:
- Component name
- Number of dependencies (both direct and total)
- Average duration time (for both creation and usage)
- Number of classes using the component
This allows you to better understand how individual components are performing within your app.
Instant user feedback
We’ve made it easier to provide feedback. The Slack button has been replaced with a dedicated User feedback link in the footer across all pages of Kotzilla Platform. Now, you can share instant feedback via a simple form, without needing to join a Slack channel.
Application consumption dashboard
A new Application Consumption dashboard has been introduced, offering a detailed analysis of application usage. This view provides weekly insights into the number of sessions and events processed over a particular duration, allowing you to monitor consumption patterns at a glance.
SDK compatibility with Koin 4.0
We’ve updated the Kotzilla SDK to support Koin 4.0, which is built on Kotlin 2.0. This update includes major improvements to the ViewModel API and embraces a fully multiplatform approach. Now, you can integrate Kotzilla Platform seamlessly with your apps that are using the latest version of Koin.

New sessions page analytics
You can now see the number of instances requested, the number of events processed, the maximum event duration, and visual analytics about the types of events (e.g., UI events, scope events, or others). This overview enables you to quickly identify which sessions may require further investigation based on these key metrics.
The new Sessions page also includes a chart view that allows you to visualize sessions created by date. You can click on a particular date to drill down into the sessions you want to investigate.
Dashboard redesign to improve user experience
The team has redesigned the Dashboard page to integrate the new sessions view and render the content in a more user-friendly manner. The current update includes three main sections:
- An overview with key highlights of a particular version of an app: sessions analyzed, events consumed, different devices, as well as # issues and crashes detected.
- A list of the latest user sessions. Updated information about user sessions management is available in the documentation.
- A list of the most recent issues. Issues view details also available here.
Performance and complexity charts have been removed as they were misleading and rarely used
Better support for Kotzilla Platform users
To encourage your feedback and ensure you quickly receive answers to any questions about usage or issues, we've integrated a Slack button in the footer of Kotzilla Platform. This button is visible on all pages of the product.
Simplified onboarding
We're continually enhancing every aspect of our app registration process. For instance, we've streamlined the process from 5 steps down to 4. Additionally, the initial registration page of the wizard has been simplified by removing the confusing "register" button.
