What crash-only tools leave out: At a Glance
Traditional crash reporters capture the stack trace and device state at the moment of the crash. That's necessary but not sufficient: most debugging time goes into reconstructing what happened before the crash, and most production issues never crash at all. That's why Logtrics pairs crash reporting with standalone remote logging and a session timeline.
The crash
Symbolicated stack trace, device, OS, app version
The context
Logs and events from the whole session, not just the crash
The answer
AI root cause analysis that explains why it happened
Logtrics vs Crash-only tools: Feature Comparison
| Feature | Logtrics | Crash-only tools |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Mobile-first: crash reporting + remote logging + event analytics in one SDK | Crash capture at the moment of failure |
| Platforms | iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter | Varies by tool; React Native and Flutter are often second-class |
| Non-crash bugs | ✅ Standalone remote logging, searchable independently of crashes | ❌ Invisible — nothing is captured unless the app crashes |
| Root cause | ✅ AI root cause analysis + AI session summaries | A stack trace you interpret yourself |
| Session context | ✅ Logs, events, and crashes correlated in one session timeline | Breadcrumbs at best, tied to the crash event |
| Symbolication | ✅ iOS dSYM, Android ProGuard, React Native source maps, Flutter symbols | Usually supported for native; source-map workflows vary |
| Alerts | ✅ Slack, email, and webhooks | Varies by tool |
| Retention | 365-day retention on all paid plans (3-day on Free) | Commonly 30–90 days on entry plans |
| Getting started | ✅ Self-serve, ~15-minute onboarding | Varies from self-serve to sales-led |
“Crash-only tools” describes the typical capabilities of traditional crash reporters, not any specific vendor.
Why Teams Choose Logtrics
Symbolication for every mobile stack
iOS dSYM, Android ProGuard mappings, React Native source maps, and Flutter symbols — uploaded once, so every stack trace is readable.
See the whole session, not the last frame
Every crash links to the session timeline: the logs, events, and screens that led up to it. Debugging starts with context instead of guesswork.
AI that does the first pass for you
AI root cause analysis explains the likely cause in plain language, and AI session summaries condense long sessions — included on every plan, even Free.
Alerts where your team already lives
New and regressed issues go straight to Slack, email, or any webhook, so crashes get triaged in minutes, not at the next dashboard check.
Pricing
Logtrics is free forever at 10K events/month (no credit card). Paid plans start at $29/month with 100M events, unlimited team members, and 365-day retention.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is mobile crash reporting?
Mobile crash reporting captures crashes in production apps — the stack trace, device, OS, and app version — symbolicates them into readable traces, groups duplicates into issues, and alerts the team. Modern tools add session context, logs, and AI analysis so you can fix the cause, not just observe the symptom.
How do I add crash reporting to my app?
With Logtrics: create a free account, add the SDK for your platform (iOS, Android, React Native, or Flutter), upload your symbol files (dSYM, ProGuard mapping, or source maps), and ship. Setup takes about 15 minutes.
Do I need separate tools for crashes and logging?
Not with Logtrics — crash reporting, standalone remote logging, and event analytics ship in one SDK and correlate in one session timeline. With crash-only tools, you'd add a second logging vendor to cover non-crash bugs.
What does crash reporting cost?
Logtrics is free up to 10K events/month. Paid plans are priced by event volume — $29, $79, and $189 per month (less billed annually) — with unlimited team members, so cost doesn't grow with your team.
