Google Analytics is showing message "Bad Event Tracking Code" for several my projects. Even for mobile app profile too.
"The message: "The Landing Pages report has a (not set) entry. Verify that tracking code for property (my app name) sends a _trackPageview hit and that it does this before sending any events."
Has somebody got similar issue?
and how to solve this issue because I read about this and can't figure out what is wrong.
I think an issue with you tracking code that have to generate with you google analytics account Here it is step by step description about how to Setting Up Google analytics for Your App
step:1
Go to www.google.com/analytics. The homepage should appear like so:
step:2:
If you do not have a Google account, you will need to create one now by selecting Create an Account on the top-right side of the page.
or sign in in this page.
Once you have logged in, you simply need to click the Access Google Analytics button on the top right.
Step:3
The first screen you see lists all of your accounts.
If you have clients, typically you will have one account set up for each.
If you are new to Google Analytics you will only have the first account you set up.
step:4
Select the Admin view on the top right.
To see the main dashboard area for managing your Accounts, Properties, and Views.
step:5
Select the Property drop-down and click on the Create new property item, like so:
step:6
Google then asks you to submit the details for the app you want to track.
Make sure to choose Mobile app at the top and enter the information as required.
In the Setting up your property section, enter "Cloud App" for the App Name.
step:7
After accepting the terms of service, the website takes you to a page with your tracking ID and the download link for the SDK.
Before you do anything else, write down your app’s Tracking ID, which will be of the form ID UA-XXXXXXXX-Y.
Keep the ID handy, because you will need it soon. For full of description please visit raywenderlich blog
I have received similar errors. However, after testing and checking all the tags, all seem to be in order. I read on PBS that these are false positive alerts, where the errors in fact in correct.

Our Action has worked as expected for years on iPhone, but something changed and now access is blocked for our customers.
How to reproduce the issue: Simply go to Assistant on iPhone and say "Hey Google, talk to the mobile concierge" (our Action). Instead of launching the Action, Assistant says "I need permission before I can use your personal info for anything. To change your settings, just open the Google Home app on your phone. Once that's done, ask me again!".
My question: Can Google confirm that this is a bug and not expected behavior? (Specifically, that a user must have 'Personal Results' turned on in order to access an Action on iPhone.)
I truly hope this is not expected behavior, but even if it is there are 2 issues:
instructions that are provided to users when Personal Results are turned off are wrong. Pointing users to the Google Home app is incorrect. Many iPhone users won't even have the Google Home app installed. But if you do have it installed, launching it and then following Assistant's directions does not lead to being able to open the Action. The correct instructions are to stay in the Google Assistant app, click on your profile pic, go to Devices, and then select your iphone. There, you can turn Personal Results on/off.
The additional problem is that upon testing, I already had Personal Results turned ON. In order to get access to our Action, I had to turn it off, and then turn it back on again. So this pretty clearly seems like a bug.
As an aside, we don't collect any personal information as part of our Action so I am unclear why Google implemented a change involving the Personal Results option as it relates to the ability to launch Actions like ours. All it has done is made it so that our customers can't use it from a huge percentage of phones out there (iPhones), and phones are the only device we are targeting for use with this Action.
Looking to integrate the branch.io in such a way that the admin gets the deep link at web end where he adds the content. And then he manually post the link to some social media say Twitter,Facebook etc. then user clicks on that link and it will take the user to app or app store.
Is it possible, please guide how to handle this. I am quite confused about branch.io. As far i understood branch.io creates the link send via sms and user clicks and gets redirected to app or app store. Is my requirement valid? How to achieve this please guide. Already spent more than a half day on it.
(Full disclosure: I am on the Branch.io team)
This is actually a very common Branch use case, so it's fairly straight forward to implement.
1. Sign up for Branch
Easy step!
2. Integrate the SDK into your app
This is a fairly simple process that should take less than half an hour, and the latest step-by-step docs for doing this are always at the link above. I won't include the full instructions in this answer because Apple creates new roadblocks fairly regularly, and we often have to make small tweaks to the guide.
After you complete this step, any time a user opens a Branch link associated with your app, either your app will launch (if installed) or that user will be sent to the App Store page to download it.
3. Create your marketing link
The link above takes you to the Branch dashboard. From that page, you can create a new Marketing Link, and use the Deep Link Data section to specify a key/value pair. For example, you can set a key of content and assign it the value mycustomvalue:
When your app launches after a user opens this link, the content : mycustomvalue pair will be magically returned to you.
4. Configure Deep Link Routing and Universal Links.
These methods are what actually call back to the Branch API every time your app opens, returning the content : mycustomvalue pair that you encoded in the link. You can do whatever you like with these values, but here are two common approaches:
Route the user to the content that you specify corresponds to mycustomvalue.
Use the values directly to display something customized (for example, if you encoded content : You've been sent a special invitation!
5. Share the link wherever you like!
The link you created can be put anywhere. Email, Twitter, Facebook, paid Google Ads, etc.
I have integrated facebook SDK in ios,and now want to use like action. For this, I have used like logo of facebook but this is rejected with following message-
"Please address the following feedback from our review team. Once you have made the changes listed below you may resubmit for review.
Thanks for making changes to your submission. This action type still doesn’t meet our criteria to become available to users. Here are the remaining changes that you need to make to your action type: Your button branding doesn’t follow Section 5.6 of the Facebook Terms and Section I.8 of the Platform Policy: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/policy/examples_and_explanations/branding/ The graphics must reflect your own branding and the user experience of your site.

If I will use like button as my application theme, then how user will know that he is going to like on facebook.
According to facebook
You can use the Built-in Like action to create custom buttons in your
app, but the button must not emulate or otherwise copy the design of
Facebook’s Like buttons. For example, you may not use a “thumbs up”
image with the word “like” in your Open Graph actions without prior
written permission from Facebook, and any custom like button you
create must not confuse users into thinking that your Open Graph
action will result in a connection to a Facebook Page.
They have clearly stated that "you may not use a “thumbs up” image with the word “like”"
So what's best thing which you can do ??
just a thumbs Up button.
You may not be allowed to use same button as Facebook has, as per Apple's guidlines.
So, in that case, you can put the same button but with different color OR you can even change the sign of fingers and make a little change in the icon. It will create an impression of Facebook like button but it is not exactly same as it.
I am new in handling apps that will be connecting with Facebook.
I want to let my user log in my app with Facebook account and be able to send something, for example, a gift to their Facebook friends.
I want to get the user's friends list and which is very easy by using FBFriendPickerViewController. However, I want to have an effect that if their Facebook friend(s) is/are also using my app, the app icon will be shown at the right hand side of the user table cell (Just like some Phone Contact lists will show if the contact has Whatsapp/ Google+)
I have been searching through sites but still find nothing about this.
So my question is, is there any "official" way (using Facebook SDK method) to show the icon?
Or I have been thinking of another approach is that, I first get the friend list and then saved it, with the information that whether the "friend" is using my app or not. Then I create a custom friend picker view and check the condition to enable/disable the visibility of the app icon.
I can get the information by using approached of using GraphAPI fields or using external database, for which are mentioned in this , this and this .....
Anybody help?
Ok I end up with customizing my own table view... : )
How do I trigger a programmatic post to a specific person's Facebook wall so that it looks like this (but replace GO TRY IT ON with my app):
I do not want this to be a generic post to the world. I want this targeted to the specific user's wall whom I specify. I want to include a specific message. I already have social discovery for my app enabled (meaning that I can see my app when I search facebook on my iPhone, and I see it in my list of apps such that I can tap the row and launch my app from facebook).
Looks like you want to familiarize yourself with the concept of the Open Graph -> https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
product is obviously an object defined in that apps open graph settings, and suggesting is an action that can be undertaken with products.
So what you've shown us in this picture is not a normal post, it's the publication message of an Open Graph action.
But I'm not aware of any simple way to make this publication visible only to one user. The general visibility is set by the user in the auth dialog for your app. I don't know if there's a way to further restrict visibility for a single action publication, maybe by dynamically creating a friendlist with only that one user in it or something …
