Quick answer
A simple app to view logs
F-Droid repository metadata
Logcat Reader makes it easy to view and save the device logs.
Features:
* Color coded logs based on log priority
* Search through log messages and tags
* Option to select from available log buffers¹
* Save the logs as a simple text file (as you would see via logcat)
* Dark UI theme (switches on at night automatically by default)
¹ May not work on all devices, in which case, the option will simply not be
present in Settings.
How to install
- Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
- Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
- Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
- If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
Data safety
- Every file is checked against its published SHA-256 before it is listed.
- Files are scanned for malware on every update.
- The permissions each app requests are listed on its own page.
- Read the full safety policy for how we test, flag, and delist files.
