Hi,
Google analytics gives cohort view day-by-day. So we can see how much each day we lose players.
Unity Analytics only shows 1-7-30 days as total. We can’t see the retention percentage in the day 4 for example.
If unity analytics doesn’t support that built-in, can we create this ourselves in the dashboard somehow? Or will you consider to update built-in retention data like this.
As you’ve found, currently, Unity Analytics only supports D1, D7, D30 retention percentages. When building our dashboard, we tried to focus on the metrics that provide the most value without overwhelming people with data. We have discussed including more retention metrics (as well as different types of retention), but we are still discussing the best way to offer these.
If you’d like, you can make a suggestion on our feedback request page:

We use the feedback from these pages to determine what features developers are most interested in, so we can best focus our resources on providing those features.
How do we see retention metrics for users that triggered a specific event?
You can create a custom segment and then see the core metrics (like retention and DAU) filtered by that segment. You can find more information about creating custom segments here:
