Crash Reporting

Crash by API

Crashes are something we know a thing or two about. We see a lot of reasons why apps crash, but we also see when a lot of popular mobile apps crash at once, that’s something we notice. Crashes across many mobile apps at the same time is not typically a result of an app-specific code update. I mean, there’s a non zero chance that hundreds of developers published broken apps… but these widespread issues are likely a result of two things.

Customer Story: How App Nouveau Canada Creates Specialized Software with Sentry Error Monitoring

Learning from Failures: Better Crash Reporting for Better Incident Response

Crash events are one of the more serious problems that can occur when operating a service. Crashing components often cause cascading failures and service outages. To reveal the magnitude of damage and help prevent future occurrences, visibility into crash events is critical. Unfortunately, debugging crashes is one of the more complicated endeavors. The state of a crashed process is often compromised and the process can’t be trusted to collect debugging information on its own.

Crash-free sessions, carefree users with Release Health

Week after week, developers work tirelessly to publish updates that improve the stability of their mobile applications, so people like me can rely on our phones for work, play, and even occasional childcare. So to all those on a bug fix rotation right now: thank you. Unfortunately, my appreciation isn’t actually a great indicator of a release’s success. Developers are looking to Sentry to provide insights like version adoption, crash-free sessions, crash-free users, etc.
