FAQPage Schema

How do I collect MetricKit data for iOS crash and hang diagnostics?▼

MetricKit diagnostics are collected by implementing MXMetricManagerSubscriber to receive MXMetricPayload and MXDiagnosticPayload, process the diagnostic data, and persist results locally for later analysis.

What iOS version is required for MXDiagnosticPayload crash reporting?▼

MXDiagnosticPayload crash reporting requires iOS 14 or later, while MXMetricPayload for performance metrics is supported starting from iOS 13. Both are necessary for full MetricKit diagnostics.

How do I use custom signposts for iOS performance telemetry?▼

Custom signposts integrate with OSLog to provide structured, privacy-aware telemetry for specific operations like video encoding or camera operations, enabling precise performance measurement within iOS apps.

Can I store MetricKit payloads locally for offline diagnostics?▼

Yes, MetricKit payloads can be persisted in local storage to support offline diagnostics, allowing crash and hang data to be saved on the device for later upload and analysis.

What is the best way to measure video encoding performance in iOS?▼

The best way to measure video encoding performance is using custom signpost categories integrated with OSLog, which capture telemetry during specific operations and report them through MetricKit payloads.
