The metric itself is connected when the platform is ready

this.platform.ready().then(async () => {
            this._yandexMetricaService.onDeviceReady();
.....

`onDeviceReady() {
// @ts-ignore
window.appMetrica.activate(yandexConfig.yandexAppMetrika);

    this.forEach(document.getElementsByTagName('button'), function (button) {
        // Workaround for buttons click animation.
        button.addEventListener("touchstart", function () { return true; });
        button.addEventListener("click", this.actions[button.id]);
    });
    this.forEach(document.getElementsByTagName('input'), function (checkbox) {
        if (checkbox.getAttribute('type') == 'checkbox') {
            checkbox.addEventListener("click", this.actions[checkbox.id]);
        }
    });
}`
