I need urgent help, i use appwrite as a chat function for my website and my mobile android application, but recently, for the past 3 months, my database reaches limits for reads and I cannot figure out why. I need to solve that issue because I suspect my mobile app is getting some request leaks and making more reads, I have done so much optimizations and caching on my websites chat, I need someone from admins or developers of appwrite to tell me if possible how much of that usage is from web and how much is from the android app, if needed I will provide database id or any sort of info, please this is really important for me

TL;DR
It is not possible to separate usage by platform type. One thing to consider is checking the amount of data fetching on each call and screen refresh, ensuring data caching is efficient. Remember that calling an API endpoint once does not necessarily equal one read count. Additionally, having relations could impact usage. Consider how messages are received on the client side.

no it is not possible to separate usage via platform type. one thing you can look at is check how much document are you fetching on each call and on screen refresh are you caching the data well?

I suppose so, I think web is optimized pretty good, 90% of my users are from web but I think it is more optimized than the mobile app

btw some people mistake calling api endpoint once as one read count . but its the amount of rows fetched also if you have relations that might also cause this .
