In this paper, we explore the comprehensive study about different techniques proposed to perform Android applications analytics. In addition to this, various aspects of android applications analytics have been reviewed along with related technologies and their limitations. This gives enhanced recognition of the problem, existing explanation space, and potential research scope to analyze and investigate various Android device intrusions against such attacks efficiently.
