Device-type data is available in the Technology section of your link metrics. This section also shows your links' referrers.
You can view your link data by device type in two places in the Bitly web app:
The Links page shows data for individual links, while your Dashboard shows aggregate data for all of your links during a set date range.
Data for individual links
To view device-type data for a specific link, click Links in the left sidebar and select the link you're interested in. Scroll down to the Technology section. Select Devices.
Data from the dashboard
Select Dashboard in the left sidebar. By default, your dashboard shows data for the current day. To change your date range, click the date in the upper-right corner of the page.
The Technology section is in the lower-left corner of the dashboard. Select Devices to view your metrics by device type.
Click Export to download a CSV file with your data.

Some other things to know about this data:
- Mobile device — You'll see this when the data tells us the device is mobile, but not a tablet. An iPod Touch is an example of a mobile device.
- No device data — This data cannot be identified because the clicks occurred before January 13, 2019, when Bitly started capturing device information.
- Unknown — Some device types are unknown because the device is not transmitting identifiable information.
