GoBlue App Launches, Offering Comprehensive Analytics for Bluesky Users
A new app called GoBlue has been released, providing Bluesky users with a robust set of analytics tools previously unavailable on the platform. Developed by Sven van der Zee, GoBlue aims to fill the gap in third-party applications for the growing social media network.
The app offers a range of features designed to help users track their Bluesky metrics, including new followers, comments, likes, and reposts. These statistics are presented as bar charts on the app’s home screen, with options to view data by day, week, month, or year. This functionality allows users to gain insights into post engagement and follower growth, as well as identify optimal times for posting.
To use GoBlue, users sign in with their Bluesky handle and an app password, which can be created through Bluesky’s Settings. The app is available through both one-time fee and subscription models, with monthly and annual pricing options.
GoBlue also caters to social media managers by allowing monitoring of multiple Bluesky accounts. The app provides an ad-free experience with no daily usage limits. Future updates are planned, including iOS Home Screen widgets and post-specific analytics.
The launch of GoBlue comes at a time of increased interest in Bluesky, particularly following recent U.S. elections and controversies surrounding Elon Musk’s management of X (formerly Twitter). As users seek alternatives to X, the Bluesky ecosystem has seen growth in third-party apps and tools.
As Bluesky continues to gain traction, GoBlue positions itself as a valuable tool for users looking to optimize their presence on the platform. The app’s development reflects the evolving landscape of social media analytics and the demand for more sophisticated tracking tools in emerging networks.
