Smartlook

Session replay, heatmaps, and native mobile app analytics for web and iOS/Android

Smartlook provides session recording and analytics software for websites and mobile apps.

Smartlook records real user sessions and builds heatmaps across web plus native iOS and Android apps, so dev and cx teams can watch exactly what happened instead of guessing from bug reports. Best fit for mobile-app-first brands, since native app replay is the piece most session tools skip. Value is indirect: the tool surfaces friction in checkout, onboarding, or app flows, your team has to ship the fixes.

What Smartlook does for Shopify brands

  • Session replay & heatmaps surface checkout & onboarding friction to fix
  • Native iOS & Android app replay catches mobile bugs web-only tools miss
  • Pull the recording instead of asking customers to reproduce the issue
  • Dev & cx teams stop guessing, see the exact session behind each bug report

Overview

Smartlook sells session recording and event-based analytics software for websites and mobile apps, showing a team how users behave and where they drop off. Smartlook has joined Cisco and is winding down as a standalone product, with its session replay, heatmap and funnel tools moving into Digital Experience Analytics, part of the Splunk Observability Cloud.

For Shopify brands

  • Watch recordings of user sessions on a website or app, with filters that go to the key moment.
  • See where users drop off in funnels and get the recordings of those drop-offs.
  • See where users click and how far they scroll with heatmaps.

How it works

A team instruments its website or mobile app and then reviews recordings, events, funnels, heatmaps and behavior flows in the Smartlook account. Existing customers can keep using Smartlook until their paid plan ends, and can export data through reports and the REST API.
