Mobile application crash reporting tools have become sophisticated and more developer-friendly over time. They are now easier to integrate and come with an array of features. While there a number of options out there, our aim is to highlight the pros and cons of the top iOS crash reporting tools. This list will be useful for businesses and developers in the process of deciding which crash reporting framework makes to implement.
1. Crashlytics
Crashlytics is one of the most popular, free and useful crash reporting tools in the market. Ideal for SMBs, it works beyond stack traces, analyzes each thread and assigns impact levels. This helps in prioritizing and working downwards from the most urgent crash reports. It is favored by developers due to its intuitive and clean design. One thing that could be addressed is the spotty Customer support!
2. Parse
Parse is a new entrant to this list. It arrived in late 2014 and adoption of Parse Crash Reporting is growing by leaps and bounds. Also great for freelancers and SMBs, Parse locates and fixes iOS crashes with simple console logs and alerts. With Facebook's backing, we can expect Parse getting pumped up with new features on a regular basis. Parse already has an analytics dashboard, a code library and cloud modules. Too early to find any faults with Parse.
3. Xcode
Currently, the Xcode 7.2 beta 4 is in pre-release. Xcode comes directly from Apple, so it has bundled symbolization and built-in integration. The only drawback is that users need to agree to share their data with Apple. So, there isn't going to be a large sample of crashes happening in your application.
