PWA Stats App¶

The PWA Stats App is a BimBeau Privacy Analytics Pro feature that provides a dedicated app-like interface for viewing your analytics.

Use it when you want a focused BimBeau Privacy Analytics experience separate from the standard WordPress admin layout.

What the PWA Stats App is for¶

The PWA Stats App is designed to make BimBeau Privacy Analytics feel more like a standalone analytics application.

Depending on your configuration, it can help you:

• access BimBeau Privacy Analytics from a dedicated app URL;
• view analytics in a more focused interface;
• reduce distractions from the standard WordPress admin layout;
• use app-like browser behavior when supported;
• give authorized users a dedicated analytics entry point.

When to use it¶

Use the PWA Stats App when:

• you check analytics frequently;
• you want a clean analytics-only workspace;
• you manage reports for a client or team;
• you prefer an app-like interface on desktop or mobile;
• you want a dedicated access path for BimBeau Privacy Analytics reporting.

Access requirements¶

To use the PWA Stats App, you generally need:

• BimBeau Privacy Analytics Pro active;
• a WordPress user account with permission to access BimBeau Privacy Analytics;
• a browser that supports the app experience you want to use;
• a working site configuration that does not block required BimBeau Privacy Analytics app assets;
• valid authentication when opening the app.

Opening the app¶

The app URL is available from App settings when the PWA Stats App is available for your plan and user permissions.

Depending on your site configuration and plugin version, the PWA Stats App may be available from a dedicated BimBeau Privacy Analytics app entry point.

A typical workflow is:

1. Confirm Pro is active

   Make sure BimBeau Privacy Analytics Pro is active and connected to the correct license or account.

2. Open BimBeau Privacy Analytics settings

   In WordPress, open BimBeau Privacy Analytics → Settings and review the app-related options.

3. Open the app link

   Use the available PWA Stats App link or entry point from BimBeau Privacy Analytics.

4. Sign in if required

   If the app asks you to authenticate, sign in with an authorized WordPress account.

5. Review your analytics

   Use the app interface to access supported BimBeau Privacy Analytics reports and workflows.

Installing the app experience¶

Some browsers may let you install the PWA Stats App or add it to your device home screen.

Authentication and sessions¶

The PWA Stats App uses an authenticated access flow. This helps ensure that only authorized users can view BimBeau Privacy Analytics analytics.

When the dedicated app login screen is available, the sign-in form is centered in the app viewport with a constrained width, a clear title, helper text, and vertically spaced fields. The login screen uses its own PWA shell styles and remains separate from the connected app and WordPress admin layout.

If you are signed out, your session expires, or your permissions change, you may need to sign in again.

App caching and updates¶

Because the PWA Stats App can behave like an app, browsers may cache some app assets.

This can improve loading behavior, but it also means that after updates you may occasionally need to refresh, close and reopen the app, or clear browser data if the interface appears outdated.

Common signs of a cache or update issue:

• the app shows an older interface after updating BimBeau Privacy Analytics;
• a button or screen behaves differently from the WordPress admin version;
• the app does not load correctly after a plugin update;
• the app works in a private window but not in your normal browser profile.

App and WordPress admin¶

The PWA Stats App is separate from the normal WordPress admin interface, but it still depends on your WordPress site, user permissions, and BimBeau Privacy Analytics configuration.

Privacy and access control¶

The PWA Stats App displays analytics data from your website. Treat access to the app the same way you treat access to BimBeau Privacy Analytics reports in WordPress.

Before giving someone access, consider:

• whether they need analytics access;
• which WordPress role or permission they have;
• whether they should be able to manage settings or only view reports;
• whether your internal privacy rules allow them to see visitor, referrer, search, or event data.

Troubleshooting app access¶

If the PWA Stats App does not open or does not behave as expected, check the following:

1. Confirm Pro is active

   The PWA Stats App is a Pro feature. Make sure your Pro license or account connection is active.

2. Check user permissions

   Make sure your WordPress user can access BimBeau Privacy Analytics and any required app features.

3. Sign in again

   If the app shows an authentication issue, sign out and sign back in with an authorized account.

4. Refresh app assets

   Close and reopen the app, refresh the browser, or clear site data if the app appears outdated after an update.

5. Check cache or security plugins

   Caching, optimization, firewall, or security plugins may interfere with app routes, PWA assets, queued WordPress assets, login flows, or service worker behavior.

6. Compare with WordPress admin

   Open the normal BimBeau Privacy Analytics admin screens to confirm whether the issue is specific to the PWA Stats App or affects BimBeau Privacy Analytics generally.
