Apps Usage: Report Overview and All Tabs
The Apps Usage report in Workalizer shows usage and activity for Gmail, Drive, Meet, Chat, and Gemini in one place. Each app has its own tab with charts, stats, and (where available) AI Insights and search. This report is part of the Reports area and is the main source for app-level metrics.
Report Access
Go to /apps/. Use the top-level tabs to switch between Gmail, Drive, Meet, Chat, and Gemini. Use Org Unit and Period filters at the top to scope all tabs. Additional entries under Apps include Drive Advanced Search (document search) and Search Meetings for finding specific meetings. Related: Performance Review for Employee and Work Patterns for per-person and team views.
