The Snowplow iOS Tracker lets you add analytics to your iOS ios-based applications.

The Tracker should be relatively straightforward to setup if you are familiar with iOS development using CocoaPods.

Ready? Let's get started.

With iOS backward compatibility is limited to a small range which it makes it easy to support. Hence, our goal was to make the iOS Tracker compatible with iOS 6+ with easy availability via CocoaPods.

The tracker has dependencies limited to the AFNetworking and FMDB libraries for networking and database management respectively. Both of which have iOS 6+ support as well. If you're installing via CocoaPods, these dependencies are recursively downloaded for your project so you don't have to worry about it.

1. Install CocoaPods using gem install cocoapods

3. Add the followinling line into it:
