color coding scale in Heatmaps.

  • Red indicates hot areas where users interact more that's most popular.

  • Blue indicates cold areas where the users interact the least that is least popular.

View Recordings

You can also view the recordings of tapped data to understand and analyze user taps. Learn more on how to view recordings.

Heatmaps limitations

  • Heat maps data is retained for up to 13 months.

  • Clarity uses CSS element selectors to create a heat map and chooses a random playback to overlay the heat map on the top. The page state depends on the playback.
  • The left panel that displays the screens isn't 100% exhaustive. In addition, there might be some duplication in the screens.
  • Taps on the same element might not be aggregated together if the element is moved from its original place (when the first heatmap was generated) to a different place in the application UI (or to a different fragment/activity).
