Tracking Visual‑Level Interactions & Page Load Times in Power BI (iPad App Users)
Hi Manendra,
Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Fabric Community Forum. Also, thanks to GilbertQ , for those inputs on this thread.
I understand your requirement. Currently, the Power BI iPad app does not have any option to capture visual-level interactions like which chart is clicked or filtered.
The Usage Metrics (V2) report in the Power BI Service can show you which users are opening the report, how often they are using it, and from which region based on IP. But it does not give detailed interaction at visual level or per-user load time.
Performance Analyzer works only inside Power BI Desktop, so it cannot capture load times for end users on mobile. For detailed telemetry such as clicks and load timings, only Power BI Embedded with JavaScript SDK supports that, not the iPad app.
Some customers use a mixed approach most users stay on the app, and a smaller group access the same report through Embedded to collect detailed telemetry. But this requires additional setup.
So in short with the iPad app, you can only rely on Usage Metrics (V2) for high-level details and region. For advanced tracking, Embedded is the only supported method as of now.
Kindly refer to the below documentation links for better understanding:

Hope this helps if you have any queries we are happy to assist you further.
Best Regards,
Harshitha.
