Hey HN.

Long-time lurker (2017) here, but finally something to post about.

I've been building an iOS companion app for Plausible over the past few months. There are some great ones out there already, but I have always wanted to try building an app first-hand. I'm quite proud of the end result, so I wanted to share it online to see if people would be interested in using it.

In case you don't know: Plausible Analytics (https://plausible.io/) is a privacy-friendly alternative to Google Analytics. You can self-host it or choose to use their SaaS platform.

I chose Plausible Analytics because of their business philosophy: Privacy should come first. Arbory is built to connect directly to Plausible (either SaaS or self-hosted).

Features include:

- iOS Liquid Glass-native dashboard displaying most of your website analytics.

- Tap to filter data, just like Plausible itself.

- Notifications for traffic spikes and drops, the algorithm lives fully on your phone. (I'm quite proud of this one in particular)

- Full suite of widgets for your lock & home screen.

There are no subscriptions involved. You'll get the full dashboard and filtering for one site for free. There's a one-time unlock for $14.99 for the rest, if desired.

I'll lurk around here to answer any questions you might have. Any feedback is appreciated.

Full disclosure (some people find this important): AI helped me build parts of this, but I've been a software engineer for 15+ years. Happy to answer any technical questions.
