public class App extends Application {
private static FirebaseAnalytics mFirebaseAnalytics;
@Override
public void onCreate() {

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import com.google.firebase.analytics.FirebaseAnalytics;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private Button btn_click;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
btn_click = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_click);
btn_click.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//Here Add Firebase LogEvent
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.ITEM_ID, "btn_click");
bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.ITEM_NAME, "Next Activity");
bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.CONTENT_TYPE, "Button");
App.getFirebaseAnalytics().logEvent(FirebaseAnalytics.Event.SELECT_CONTENT, bundle);
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, SecondActivity.class));
}
});
}
}
* activity_main.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Button
android:id="@+id/btn_click"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Next Activity" />
</RelativeLayout<
* Create SeconActivity.java class and activity_second.xml filepackage com.limbani.firebaseanalyticsdemo;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);
}
}
* activity_second.xml file
