Features

Sentry's Android SDK enables automatic reporting of errors and exceptions, and identifies performance issues in your application. The below, is a list of features that are available as part of this SDK.

• Native Development Kit (NDK), the set of tools that that allows you to use C and C++ with Android.
• Events enriched with device data.
• Offline caching. (If a device is offline, we'll send a report once the application has been restarted.)
• Automatic breadcrumbs for:
  • Android activity lifecycle events.
  • Application lifecycle events.
  • System events such as: low battery, low storage space, airplane mode started, shutdown, changes of the configuration, and so forth.
  • Application component callbacks.
  • User Interactions such as: view click, scroll, swipe, and so on.
  • Android fragment lifecycle events.
  • OkHttp requests.
  • Apollo requests.
  • Timber logs.
  • Navigation destination changes.
• Release health, tracking crash-free users and sessions.
• Attachments that can enrich your event by storing additional files, such as config or log files.
• User Feedback, providing the ability to collect user information when an event occurs.
• Tracing that can track:
  • Android activity transactions.
  • User interaction transactions such as: view click, scroll, swipe, and so on.
  • Navigation transactions.
  • Android fragment spans.
  • Cold and warm app starts.
  • Slow and frozen frames.

• View Hierarchy attachments for errors.
• Code samples provided in both Kotlin and Java (since the Android SDK uses both languages).
