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: 
In general, if a JavaScript library you want to use is on a CDN or a server external to your app, the answer is no, as Windows apps written with HTML/JavaScript cannot load external JavaScript libraries...if you try, a security exception will occur.

Many libraries will work fine if you copy the JS file into your project and run it locally. For example, jQuery works just fine this way. I have not tried the Google Analytics library, so you might just want to test it out and see if it will work with a local copy.

Something else to consider, however, is that unlike a web site, a Windows app written in HTML/JavaScript may occasionally be offline, in which case, a library written with the assumption of network connectivity would likely not work. So in this particular case, you might not get the data that you're hoping for.

Hope that helps.
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.
