Believe it or not, but mobile apps do crash and crash logs can help us build higher quality software products and, above all, make our users happy. The purpose of this presentation is to help us understand why our apps crash in the first place, what is a crash log and what we have to know in order to take full advantage of these logs and the information they contain. The presentation is based on iOS environment examples, but the general principles apply to all mobile development platforms.

“Debugging is twice as hard as writing the
code in the first place. Therefore, if you

you are, by definition, not smart enough
to debug it.“
