Mobile Recordings in VWO offer the following details:
- Location of the visitor
- Number of screens recorded on your mobile application
- Duration of the recording along with the date and time at which the recording has been created
- The device used by the visitor to access the application
- The operating system of your visitor’s device
Using these data, you can target and study the patterns of different cohorts in different time frames. That’s why VWO offers you the filtering option for your mobile session recordings, with which you can filter the list for the data subject to definite dates and segmentation criteria.
Filter Recordings by Date and Time
To filter reports within a specific date range, click on the Date Filter and select the date range for which you want to view the recordings. By default, the session recordings report displays data within the last 30 days from the current day. You can choose from one of the following preset options, as required:
| Last 30 Days | View reports of the last 30 days from today |
| Last 7 Days | View reports of the last 7 days from today |
| Yesterday |
View yesterday's recording data |
| Today |
View today's recording data |
To specify a custom date range, just choose the start date and the end date from the calendar. You can also specify the time in hours and minutes to draw results accurately within the time frame. For defining the time period, use the Start and the End options to select the appropriate numbers for the hours and minutes.
Once done, click the Filter button to filter the recordings for your specified time period.
Filter Recordings by User Segments
The Visitor Segments filter allows you to apply predefined segmentation criteria or create a custom one for your mobile session recordings list. To apply the segmentation criteria, click on the Visitor Segments filter. To learn more about configuring conditions in a segment, refer to Segmentation in VWO.
Use the Standard Segments to apply one of the following predefined segmentation criteria to your mobile session recordings list:

| New Visitors | To fetch the recordings of the visitors who use your app for the first time |
