Optimize user experience and drive engagement with Vexo & Expo
Key Points
- Session replays embedded in Expo
- One-click access to full Vexo analytics
- One-line integration with automatic tracking
Summary
This release describes the Expo ↔ Vexo integration that embeds Vexo Session Replays directly inside the Expo dashboard and provides one-click access to the full Vexo analytics suite. It enables engineers and product teams to see how users interact with each EAS Update (builds, channels, updates) without leaving Expo, while still allowing deeper analysis in Vexo.
Key Points
- Session replays appear inline in the Expo dashboard for each EAS Update (by Build, Channel, Update groups).
- One-click access from Expo opens the full Vexo dashboard for deeper analytics (heatmaps, funnels, custom events).
- Automatic tracking: integrate with a single step and Vexo populates core metrics, session replays, and heatmaps without manual event setup.
- Quick integration command:
npm install vexo-analytics. - Connect flow in Expo: Account Settings → Connect (authenticate with Vexo) → Project Settings → Connect (link Vexo project).
- Promo: Expo users who create a Vexo account via the integration get 50% off their first year with code
EXPO50.
How to integrate (practical steps)
- Add Vexo to your app: run
npm install vexo-analytics. - Ensure Vexo is running in your app so it starts capturing sessions automatically.
- In Expo: go to Account Settings → Click "Connect" → authenticate or create a Vexo account.
- In your Expo project settings: click "Connect" and link the Vexo project. Session replays will appear grouped by Build/Channel/Update.
- Click "View on Vexo" from any session to jump to the full dashboard for deeper analysis.
Why this matters
- Faster iteration: see real user behavior tied to releases without instrumenting custom events first.
- Better prioritization: identify where users get stuck or what drives engagement using replays and heatmaps.
- Low friction: minimal setup lets engineering teams focus on shipping features, not maintaining analytics.
