Is there a way to automatically include the console output with the crash log on ios

Question

The crash log returned when your app has an error on iOS is wonderful however it would be 100 times better if it contained the console output from when your app started as part of the log. Is there a way to automatically have that information in the crash log, or have a semi-automatic system that testers could use when sending in crash logs?

Answer 1

I think you might want to take a look at http://apphance.com. It's exactly what you are looking for - including capability of sending problem reports from device by testers, including screenshots, you can track history of session including full console logs, you can even see crashes from out-of-memory problems which are otherwise difficult to get without physical access to the device. It's closed beta for now but soon it will be open for everyone. You can request access directly at the page.

@Medran i am not sure if this will help but if you can get the Brad Larsons videos on Advance iPhone App Development than there he says some thing about .dSYM file that will help you find the places where crash occurs. .dSYM file is made when you build your app using Xcode. See if you can find that file in your project folder its named something like this MYapp.app.dSYM
