How can I add Yandex Metrika (Metrica) support on my iOS app?

Question

How can I add Yandex.Metrika support on my iOS app?

I've added static library libYandexMobileMetrica.a and libsqlite3.dylib but still get the following errors:

Answer 1

ProtobufObjC for iOS is available only via CocoaPods tool.

1. Run terminal and type: sudo gem install cocoapods.
2. Save your project as workspace on xCode.
3. Create on project's folder Podfile like this: https://github.com/yandexmobile/metrica-sample-ios/blob/master/Podfile
4. Run terminal and type: pod install.

P.S. Google Analytics is poor. But Yandex.Metrika is head-onanism and must die with API like this. Yandex.Metrika doesn't work with x64 processors and can't be published on the App Store.

I am currently supporting YandexMetrica. Thank you for sharing this with us. Version 1.2, which is available via CocoaPods supports both x86_64 and arm64 slices. And yes - CocoaPods is a preferable way of distributing our library because it is much easier than adding it manualy. What are the other problems you've encountered?

Altaveron, about your comment "Yandex.Metrika doesn't work with x64 processors and can't be published on the App Store"

I guess You are talking about first version of library. It should be noted that Yandex.Metrica 1.2 is available for arm64 as well.
