## What it is
Aptabase is an open-source, privacy-first analytics platform for mobile, desktop, and web apps, serving as an alternative to Firebase/Google Analytics. It collects no personal data, cookies, or device identifiers, and offers SDKs for many frameworks plus a managed cloud or self-hosted deployment.

## Use cases
- track app usage events without collecting personal data
- self-host a privacy-friendly analytics server for my mobile app
- add analytics to a Flutter app without a consent banner
- replace Firebase Analytics with a GDPR-compliant alternative
- monitor sessions and app versions in real time for my Electron app
- add event tracking to a Tauri or React Native app
- export app analytics data to CSV while keeping full data ownership

## When to choose
- you need app analytics that is GDPR/CCPA/PECR compliant without cookies or fingerprinting
- you want an open-source Firebase Analytics alternative you can self-host
- you build apps with Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native, Electron, Tauri, Unity, or Unreal and need an SDK
- you want real-time dashboards with anonymous session tracking and CSV export

## When to avoid
- you need user-level identification, funnels, or cohort analysis tied to individual identities
- you need free unlimited hosting with no event limits
- you require advanced marketing attribution or ad-platform integrations
- you need automatic tracking of every user interaction without manual event instrumentation
