Sentry Unveils New Unified SDK and NDK for Application Error Monitoring on Android
Summary
The agentless error-tracking platform goes beyond system alerts and pinpoints exact errors with the depth and detail developers need to accurately identify, prioritize and fix crashes in real time. Application crashes can increase churn and damage brand reputation, so it is imperative that mobile developers have tools that help them to identify and remediate errors efficiently. “App crashes cause more than 70% of uninstalls, and Google ranking algorithms now downrank apps with stability problems, so uptime and performance are critical for companies to remain successful and competitive in the mobile world,” said David Cramer, co-founder and CEO of Sentry. And on Android, flaws in your native code, third-party dependencies or, in rare cases, even in the system libraries, can bring down the entire application.” Sentry for Mobile captures every crash and reports about them in real time. Unlike legacy application performance management, logging, and systems monitoring, Sentry points to the potential root cause, empowering developers to quickly and efficiently triage and prioritize issues for the best possible end-user experience.
