Way to see crash logs for an iOS app outside of an Xcode debugging session?

I have an app where the user needs to login before using it .

to enhance the user experience , the user needs only to login at the first time and each other time the app will not show the login screen but it will show the app [ I am using user default to store his id ] now I have achieved this but I ran into a bug and the app crashes when I open it after a succeeded login ..

The problem is : to mimic the scenario where I open the app without the need to login , I had to stop the app [ which means there will be no debugging session ] and then reopen the app ..

What I am asking for : is there a way to see what causes the bug knowing that I am not running the app in a debugging session ?

Thanks in advance

Can you run your app on a device? If so, you might be able to get the crash data you need from the Devices window, from Xcode.

Xcode -> Window -> Devices.

Select your device, then select View Device Logs.

Here's Apple's page on the subject.

For running in the simulator, you may be able to get the crash data you need from the Console (I've just tried this and seen at least one crash log from my current development).

Here is Apple's page on Testing with the Simulator. From the menu on the left, check out Viewing Crash Logs. Extract from that page...

To view a crash log

  1. Open Console by going to Applications/Utilities/Console in the Finder.
  2. Look for the line in Console that reads “Saved Crash Report for.”
  3. Expand this item using the arrow at the left.
  4. Click Open Report.

check plcrashreporter : https://code.google.com/p/plcrashreporter/downloads/list http://plcrashreporter.googlecode.com/svn/tags/plcrashreporter-1.1-beta1/Documentation/API/functions.html

it's very easy to use and If your application crashes, a crash report will be written. When the application is next run, you may check for a pending crash report, and submit the report to your own HTTP server, send an e-mail, or even introspect the report locally
