Squarespace App Analytics Guide: Metrics, Mobile vs Desktop Analysis
The Squarespace app's Analytics tab provides comprehensive insights into your site's performance through easy-to-read data cards. Available metrics include page views, subscribers, popular content, and for Core, Plus, Advanced, and Commerce plans, revenue data and sales analytics.
Key Differences Between Desktop and App Analytics:
- More preset date filter options in the app
- No search engine or on-site search query cards
- Separate cards for device type and top products
- No email campaign or Point of Sale analytics
- RSS subscribers show all feeds (no individual feed filtering)
- Line graphs include previous period comparisons

- View summary cards or tap individual cards for details
- Use the date selector to choose timeframes (default: last 30 days)
- Rearrange cards by tapping and holding
