What is Google Analytics 4 (GA4)?

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) originally known as “App+ Web,” is the latest version of Google Analytics after Universal Analytics. The Google Analytics 4 property is a single platform you can use for both your website and App, unlike Universal Analytics which only supports websites.

Previously there was no option to check for mobile App and website usage data simultaneously for unified reporting and analysis. Google Analytics 4 resolves the same issue with a huge list of newly added features.

New AI-Powered insights

GA4 is power-packed with new AI-powered insights that prove to be a firm step in the promising future of predictive marketing. It holds the ability to feed marketers and analysts with the correct information. You can make great use of information like that.
GA4 empowers you to strategize better. It helps you understand which product will make more sales depending upon the location, customers, higher search volumes, and multiple attributes within each option.

Google Analytics 4 eliminates the need for you to always keep a check and it automatically alerts marketers of data trends to change your strategy in time. Not just the planning aspect, but also outcomes such as churn rates and the total revenue a business could make can also be predicted.

Smarter options with Google Ads

GA4 helps you maintain and enrich your audience and visitor list from both App and website. For example, if a visitor turns into an audience user due to some action that was completed on the web, then the visitor is automatically moved to the audience list so that he is not bothered with unnecessary ads and is fed with apt information based on the updated visitor/audience user list.

GA4 has added a consent mode for websites that have to collect end-user consent to gather analytics data. It provides separate consent options for analytics and Google Ads.
