<h1>How to enable debugging<a name="how-to-enable-debugging" href="#how-to-enable-debugging" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h1>
<p>It is possible to get the apps to display or log more information that might help debug various issues.</p>
<h2>Desktop application<a name="desktop-application" href="#desktop-application" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h2>
<p>If the application starts with a white screen, open <strong>View &gt; Toggle Developer Tools</strong> in the menu. Then check in the console if there is any error or warning and please let us know about it.</p>
<p>Otherwise, follow these instructions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Click on menu <strong>Help &gt; Open Profile Directory</strong> and add a file named &quot;flags.txt&quot; in your directory with the following content: <code>--open-dev-tools --debug --log-level debug</code></li>
<li>Restart the application</li>
<li>The development tools should now be opened. Click the &quot;Console&quot; tab</li>
<li>Now repeat the action that was causing problem. The console might output warnings or errors - please add them to the GitHub issue. Also open log.txt in the config folder and if there is any error or warning, please also add them to the issue.</li>
</ul>
<h2>CLI application<a name="cli-application" href="#cli-application" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>Start the app with <code>joplin --debug --log-level debug</code></li>
<li>Check log.txt as specified above for the desktop application and attach the log to the GitHub issue (or just the warnings/errors if any). The profile directory would be in <code>~/.config/joplin</code>.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Mobile application<a name="mobile-application" href="#mobile-application" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>In the Configuration screen, press on the <strong>Log button</strong> and post a screenshot of any error/warning.</li>
</ul>
<h1>Creating a low-level bug report on Android<a name="creating-a-low-level-bug-report-on-android" href="#creating-a-low-level-bug-report-on-android" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h1>
<p><a href="https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/bug-report">https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/bug-report</a></p>
<p>To get a bug report directly from your device, do the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Be sure you have <a href="https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options">Developer Options</a> enabled.</li>
<li>In Developer options, tap Take bug report.</li>
<li>Select the type of bug report you want and tap Report.</li>
</ul>
<p>After a moment you get a notification that the bug report is ready. To share the bug report, tap the notification.</p>
<h1>Creating a low-level bug report on iOS<a name="creating-a-low-level-bug-report-on-ios" href="#creating-a-low-level-bug-report-on-ios" class="heading-anchor">🔗</a></h1>
<p>Some crashes cannot be investigated using Joplin's own tools. In that case, it can be very helpful to provide a native iOS crash report.</p>
<p>For this, please follow these instructions:</p>
<p>You can send it to this address <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/dev/Assets/AdresseSupport.png">https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/dev/Assets/AdresseSupport.png</a></p>
<p><a href="https://developer.apple.com/library/content/qa/qa1747/_index.html">https://developer.apple.com/library/content/qa/qa1747/_index.html</a></p>
<p>Getting Crash Logs Directly From a Device Without Xcode</p>
<p>Your users can retrieve crash reports from their device and send them to you via email by following these instructions.</p>
<p>(It is not possible to get device console logs directly from a device)</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Open Settings app</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Go to Privacy, then Diagnostics &amp; Usage</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select Diagnostics &amp; Usage Data</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Locate the log for the crashed app. The logs will be named in the format: <code>&lt;AppName&gt;_&lt;DateTime&gt;_&lt;DeviceName&gt;</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select the desired log. Then, using the text selection UI select the entire text of the log. Once the text is selected, tap Copy</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Paste the copied text to Mail and send to an email address as desired</p>
</li>
</ol>
