Pendo Mobile SDK

The Pendo Mobile SDK is a codeless library that collects analytics retroactively across all versions of your app. The SDK also provides the ability to display in-app messages, tooltips and multi-step walkthrough guides built using Pendo's Visual Design Studio. The SDK starts collecting analytics as soon as it is integrated. The integration requires minimal effort with a few lines of code.

Integration instructions

[!WARNING] CocoaPods Deprecation Notice: CocoaPods registry will become read-only in December 2026. Pendo will stop publishing new SDK versions to CocoaPods. We highly recommend migrating your iOS projects to Swift Package Manager (SPM) as soon as possible. See our CocoaPods to SPM Migration Guide for step-by-step instructions.

[!NOTE] The following integration instructions are relevant for SDK 3.0 or higher. Follow our migration instructions to upgrade from SDK 2.x to 3.0 or refer to our 2.x integration instruction.

• Native: Android | iOS
• Kotlin Multiplatform: Native UI | Compose Multiplatform (Beta)
• React Native:
  • Using React Navigation: Android | iOS
  • Using React Native Navigation: Android | iOS
  • Using Expo with Expo Router: Android | iOS
  • Using Expo with React Navigation: Android | iOS
  • Using Expo with React Native Navigation Android | iOS

Install via Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex (Beta)

Prefer to have an AI coding assistant do the integration for you? A skill covering every platform above (native iOS/Android, React Native, Expo, Flutter, MAUI) ships from this repo. This integration is new — please open an issue if you hit problems or have feedback.

Claude Code (no clone needed):

/plugin marketplace add pendo-io/pendo-mobile-sdk
/plugin install pendo-mobile-sdk-tools@pendo-mobile-sdk

Then, from your own app's repo, ask it to install Pendo. If Pendo is already in your app, ask it to check your Pendo integration instead: its doctor mode reports problems by severity and fixes only the ones you pick, on a new branch. To open a Pendo support ticket, ask it for a report for Pendo support: it writes up your app's Pendo setup with keys and user values masked.

For modes, arguments, example prompts and troubleshooting, see the plugin guide.

Keeping it up to date. Claude Code doesn't update plugins from this marketplace automatically unless you turn it on: run /plugin, open Marketplaces, select pendo-mobile-sdk and choose Enable auto-update. To update by hand instead:

claude plugin update pendo-mobile-sdk-tools@pendo-mobile-sdk

Then run /reload-plugins. See what changed in each version.

Cursor / Codex (one-time setup — pulls just the skill, not this whole repo):

git clone --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/pendo-io/pendo-mobile-sdk.git
cd pendo-mobile-sdk
git sparse-checkout set plugin
git checkout master

mkdir -p ~/.cursor/skills ~/.agents/skills

# Cursor
ln -s "$(pwd)/plugin/skills/install-pendo-mobile" ~/.cursor/skills/install-pendo-mobile
# Codex
ln -s "$(pwd)/plugin/skills/install-pendo-mobile" ~/.agents/skills/install-pendo-mobile

git pull inside that clone picks up future updates to the skill for both tools.
