Gain deeper insights with data breakdowns
Understanding breakdowns
Breakdowns help you analyze data by dividing it into smaller groups. For instance, you can break down your data by platform to see how users on iOS compare to those on Android. Unlike filters, which limit the data shown, breakdowns let you see all the data but organized into categories for easier comparison.
Applying breakdowns
To add a metric breakdown, locate the Breakdown field at the bottom of your chart and select the metrics you want to break down. Please note that a maximum of five breakdowns can be displayed at once to avoid cluttering the chart.

Metrics can be broken down by:
- Platforms - applicable to all data.
- Attribute values - applicable only for events.
- Tag values - applicable only for tags.
Platforms
