Final Page View Duration

The amount of time a visitor spends on the final page of their visit is unknown.

This is VERY frustrating!

Is there no way to gauge this?

I know next to nothing about Javascript. But in many other GUI systems there’s an Unload event. Is there one available in browsers that Piwik could be used?

Or, would it be terrible if a timer was set to ping Piwik every n seconds to give us an approximation? If we could control n, we would get to control the load on our servers.

Hello,

I created a new FAQ to answer your question: How do I accurately measure the time spent by visitors on my pages, including the time spent on the last page of their visit? (using the heart beat timer) - Analytics Platform - Matomo
