Taking down Obsessed App from the App Store due to changes in Google Analytics. Anyone who wants a refund get in touch with peteloaf@mac.com
I will give out refunds on proof of purchase until the end of March 2013 as a gesture of goodwill
Thanks everyone for your support - the app was really useful but I can no longer support Google’s changes.
In order for Obsessed to access your Google Analytics data the app needs to store your username and password on your iphone. We take privacy very seriously and ensure that your username and password are encrypted so that no one else could access them, even if they stole your phone.
Additionally the app is read-only so that if your phone was stolen they would not be able to make any changes to your Google Analytics account or access your account from another computer.
Obsessed uses your username and password to login to Google Analytics as you and obtain the required realtime analytics data from your account - the key aim of the app was to make a really simple and fun way to access this amazing resource on your iphone. The app does not poll google for data - it simply presents the existing data that Google supply in an app-friendly manner.
Thanks for listening!
If you have any support questions or issues please use our Twitter account @obsessedapp
We are happy to help and would love to make this app as good as it can possibly be - so please let us know if you have any questions or problems
Thanks
Pete

Thanks everyone for all your hard work!
Screenshots of Obsessed when I was riding high on a Hacker News post about the Raspberry Pi.
My post got to number one on Hacker News which led to over 13.5k hits over a couple of days.
It was great to have Obsessed running so I could check out the stats while I was out!
We are still awaiting our app store feedback but just wanted to ensure that everyone knows what the app will do. Basically there are currently no apps on the app store that allow access to Google’s amazing Real-time analytics. If you have used these in the browser then you will love our new iPhone app that will allow you to see instant analytics on the go.
We are very excited and will post here as soon as it’s live on the App Store!
The first version of Obsessed is now in for review with the app store. Because it’s doing some pretty revolutionary stuff we really hope it’s going to get through without amendments.
The app is going to offer the first iphone app offering of Google’s real-time analytics for people that can’t be without their statistics wherever they are.
We are launching with English, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, French, German and Portugese version of the app.
We will keep you updated!
