App usage overview

To help you analyze how apps are used in your organization, Knox Asset Intelligence provides several insights related to which apps are in use, how long they’re in use, and the resources consumed by each app.

Available app usage insights

The following app-usage related insights are available in Knox Asset Intelligence:

• App type
• Total, Background, and Foreground app usage
• Apps with highest battery consumption
• Apps with highest network usage
• Apps with highest RAM usage

View app usage insights

There are two ways to view app usage related insights: on the main Dashboard, or on the dedicated Apps sub-dashboard.

Main Dashboard

The main Dashboard is where you can view all Knox Asset Intelligence insights. To view app-usage related insights, you must first select these insights in the Dashboard Settings > CUSTOMIZE tab. See Configure dashboard settings for more details.

Dedicated Apps sub-dashboard

The Apps sub-dashboard groups all app-related dashboard insight, including insights related to app usage, into a single page. This page doesn’t require you to select each insight in Dashboard Settings. To access this page, click Apps under Dashboard in the left navigation pane.

Create app usage reports

To help you further analyze data related to how apps are used in your fleet, you can generate an app usage report for a specific insight. To do this:

1. Go to the expanded view page for that insight, then in the APPLICATION LIST table, select up to 10 apps to view in the report.
2. Click CREATE APP USAGE REPORT.
3. In the pop-up dialog, select the reporting period, either Yesterday, or Last 7 days.
4. In the Data Type field, select the type of data you want to include in your usage report, then click DOWNLOAD USAGE REPORT. The report is sent to your email once ready.

Alternatively, you can generate an app usage report from the Devices page. To do so:

1. Go to the Devices page, then click a DEVICE ID to open the expanded device details panel.
2. In the APPS field, click CREATE APP USAGE REPORT, then follow the same procedure above to create your report.
