Google Analytics 4 can be confusing. In my experience, business owners and managers often have a hard time understanding that.
Here are three third-party Google Chrome extensions for creating GA4 reports, annotating them, and quickly accessing your data.
Create a report
GA4 fixer is a free extension that helps you create useful GA4 reports. We provide the following pre-built reports that can be launched with one click:
- Conversions: Comparison of key events.
- Comparison of new users and repeat users.
- Exit page: The page where users most often leave your site.
- landing page (Organic search): The page that users land on after searching Google.
This extension enhances GA4 reporting by adding:
- % of total.
- Fixed header (to display the header above the numbers when scrolling).
- Click-to-copy functionality: Click on any value in the report to copy it.

quick on page data
Page analysis is a free Chrome extension for quick access to traffic data for any page within your browser view. The report on the page includes:
- Page views.
- Scrolled users (users who scrolled down the page).
- Average session time.
- bounce rate.
- conversion rate.
- traffic source.
- Source of referral traffic.
- Outbound click.
Page analysis helps you save time because getting a single page of data in GA4 requires multiple clicks and navigating the interface.
