    Hello, I want to track the usage of the features of my installed desktop Qt application. I mean I want a log file that contains the frequency of the tool used by user and how long they use it. Is there any qt library to generate reports like I mention? I want to track which part of our software is used most often and how we can make it more user friendly. In short, I am searching for tools like Google Analytics, but I want it offline (just dumps the data in the report file and we ask the user to send that report to us every month).
    NOTE: All this will be done with the consent of the user. For this I will give a popup on first launch of software.

      Unless someone else answers better, I suspect the answer is "no, you must write whatever you want yourself".

        There is no Qt library, but there is a KDE library called KUserFeedback: https://api.kde.org/frameworks/kuserfeedback/html/index.html It is designed to transmit the data to a server (say, once a week) but you might be able to set it up to store the data locally instead.

        KUserFeeback is used by Qt Creator to track feature usage: https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-telemetry.html
