Crash Report Content for React Native

This page covers the content found in crash reports in the Instabug dashboard for your React Native app.

When using Instabug Crash Reporting, each crash report reaches your dashboard with all the information you need to resolve it.

Crash Overview

The crashes page in your dashboard lists all of your crash reports. When you select one, it opens the crash overview page where you can find more details about that crash.

The graph above depicts the number of crashing sessions caused by this particular crash against the days of the previous month. Each line color represents a different app version.

Here are what the details in the crash page cover:

  • Exception & Crash Cause: The main application frame that caused the crash.
  • Occurrences: The number of times this crash occurred.
  • Affected Users: The number of unique users that experienced this crash.
  • Occurrences over time: Shows the number of occurrences over time for each app version.
  • Max App Version: The highest version of the app this crash occurred on.
  • App Versions: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by app version.
  • Devices: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by device model.
  • OS version: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by OS version.
  • App status: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by background or foreground state.
  • Current view: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by the app view they occurred on.
  • Experiments: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by different feature flags (if any are specified).
  • User attributes: A breakdown of the crash occurrences by custom user attributes (if any are specified).

Stack Trace

In each crash report, you can find the stack trace of the crash with the most important frames highlighted in blue. These highlighted frames are your application's frames. In order for these crashes to be readable, symbolication is required. More information on symbolication can be found here. A stack trace is captured and shown per app version within the crash itself.
