I am writing an ios app and would like my trial users to be able to tell me what version they are using.

I know that you can programmatically display the installed version of your app to a user as in these two posts:
[How can I check the bundle version of our application programmatically?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2657477/how-to-check-bundle-version-for-our-application-by-programming) and [How to display the current project version of my App to the user?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1492351/how-to-display-the-current-project-version-of-my-app-to-the-user)

But do I *have* to do it programmatically? How can I show ios app version number WITHOUT objective-c code? On android the version is automatically available under Manage Applications.

Answer: 
We're using the free version of [markedup](https://markedup.com/winrtanalytics) in our applications with great success. In addition to simple page views it shows you some app specific numbers like number of installs, exception details, etc.
I'd recommend using the [Google Analytics SDK for Windows 8 and Windows Phone](http://googleanalyticssdk.codeplex.com). It is built as a WinRT component and therefore supports both JS & Xaml Win8 apps.

Full disclosure: I am the author of this SDK; I built it for my own app and decided to open source it. There are other frameworks out there but AFAIK, none of them support the new GA universal analytics protocol so they only work with older GA properties and don't support all the cool new features GA recently added just for apps.
