The default City tag is populated from the device's IP address (via GeoIP) at the moment the app was last launched on that device — it does not require location services to be enabled. While the dashboard may display this data aggregated, you can export the raw data to see the breakdown by individual cities.
There are two main ways to do this:
Use tag statistics: In the Control Panel you can view statistics for tag values as a pie chart, bar chart or table. Open the statistics for the City tag to see the list of cities and the number of devices per city. The same data is available programmatically via the
getTagStatsmethod of the Statistics API, which returns a CSV report.Create and export a segment: If you are interested in the users from a few specific cities, create a segment based on the City tag for those cities (e.g. City is 'New York' OR City is 'London'), then export the list of users belonging to that segment.
Note: because the value comes from GeoIP, it reflects the network the device was on at last app open (VPNs, carrier NAT and corporate proxies can skew it), and it is only as fresh as the last app launch.
