Add comparison charts to your reports

You can use a comparison chart to compare a single metric across all your apps, ad units, ad formats or the countries your users are in.

Each comparison chart can display up to eleven lines. The first five lines represent the top five items within the selected comparison dimension. The top five are selected by default. Click See more to view the top 10 items and remaining Other items. The Other line represents the total of all other items within the dimension.

The meaning of each line is displayed in the legend below the chart. Hover over the lines to view the values that they represent.

• Comparison dimension: The dimension used to divide the data in the chart, represented by multi-coloured lines that correspond to the legend at the bottom of the chart.
• Sort order: The order the data in the chart is presented in; currently "Top" is the only option and is selected by default.
• Sort metric: The value being measured, represented by the points on the lines and the numbers on the left-hand side of the chart.
