Support for Uni-App and WeChat Mini Programs #2223

Hi PostHog team 👋

I would like to request official support for Uni-App and WeChat Mini Programs.

Current situation

• Currently, PostHog SDKs do not support Uni-App or WeChat Mini Programs.
• Developers working with these ecosystems cannot easily integrate PostHog for analytics and user behavior tracking.
• We can only try using the HTTP API, but this misses important features such as automatic event capture, session tracking, and visual heatmaps.

Why this matters

• Uni-App is widely used in China and other regions to build cross-platform apps (including WeChat Mini Programs, H5, iOS, Android).
• WeChat Mini Programs have a huge developer and user base, especially in the Chinese market. Adding support would open up PostHog to a significant number of new developers and companies.

Feature request

• Provide an official PostHog SDK for Uni-App.
• Provide an official PostHog SDK for WeChat Mini Programs.
• At least support: event capture, user identification, super properties, and session tracking.

Alternatives

Right now, the only workaround is using the HTTP API, but this is not practical because:

• No automatic capture.
• No visual heatmap support.
• Higher integration cost for developers.

Additional context

Adding support for these platforms would make PostHog more competitive in markets where WeChat Mini Programs and Uni-App are widely used.

Thanks for considering this! 🙏
