[Clay_P]

1. Collects data from both the website and the app in order to better understand the customer journey.
2. One of the more notable changes is that there is no more need for tracking codes in your site's HTML source code. The new Universal Analytics and the JavaScript library (ga.js) will track visitors automatically even without the traditional tracking code - provided that you have at least one page tag on every page
3. Combine data from mobile apps and websites for unified reporting and analysis.
4. GA4 now has a new feature that allows you to segment users into audiences based on their likelihood of making a purchase or churning within the next 7 days.
5. The new data model allows for more flexible reporting, which will benefit you over time.
