    Sure, what your team is saying is indeed possible. When a mobile app is built with web tech, as described, it’s possible to use the same analytics setup as you would for a website. Debugging such an app typically involves using your computer’s browser, connecting your phone to your computer, and enabling certain settings that let your computer’s browser interact with the app. The exact details should be provided by your developers.

    The main challenge could be with using the GTM preview debugger due to the unconventional setup. However, you can work around that by publishing the container to a lower environment in GTM and then test by simply viewing raw network requests or using an extension like Adswerve’s datalayer inspector in the dev console. Keep experimenting and you should be able to see the results you’re looking for.
