When we introduced ‘remote actions’ in 2012, i.e. the execution of IT automation tasks from your smartphone, we aimed at empowering the mobile (IT) workforce of the future. We aimed at relieving IT people from being bound to their desks, notebooks and PCs.
In this tutorial, we’ll debug an iOS application with Apple’s Xcode. Xcode is a robust environment for developing and troubleshooting iOS applications. We’ll see how we can use it, alongside Raygun’s iOS Crash Reporting, to quickly address an application deficiency.
About two years ago here at Mattermost, we decided to start building a prototype for our mobile apps in React Native (RN for short). We were so impressed with how easy it was to build our app for both platforms that we ultimately decided that RN was the way to go for mattermost-mobile apps. Thanks to RN, we can focus exclusively on ensuring feature parity between our mobile apps and our webapp.
You can now install our very own StatusCake app on any iOS or Android device. This means you can check your test status on the go wherever you are without needing to log into email or access the StatusCake site in a mobile view! At launch the app covers Uptime, SSL and PageSpeed type tests, and you can view all of the important information for each type at a glance. All you will need to make use of this is your StatusCake username and API key.
In mobile apps, it’s important to monitor errors so you can understand your user’s experience. Your team should know quickly when there are problems with the app itself or your backend services so you can fix the issue before more customers are affected. We’ll show you how to handle errors in iOS apps. We’ll then show you how Rollbar error monitoring can give you better visibility into errors and help you troubleshoot them faster.
On this episode of Exception Perceptions, Xamarin + Azure Cloud Developer Advocate Brandon Minnick stopped by to chat with Sentry’s Developer Evangelist(a) Chloe Condon about Visual Studio Tools for Xamarin the mobile development platform that lets developers use their C# and .NET skills to build fully native Android, iOS, and UWP apps.
The Raygun platform is designed to surface as much actionable information about errors so, as a developer, you not only fix them quickly but gain context into what causes errors in the first place. Today we’re announcing a new feature for both Crash Reporting and Real User Monitoring: Crash by device. This new feature helps mobile developers understand which devices cause the most crashes, so replicating errors becomes easier.
