Description

Logcat Extreme is an enhanced Logcat/Dmesg reader and Logcat recorder which comes with a rich set of features and handy user interface.

Please note: Logcat Extreme requires root access or READ_LOGS permission to show logs properly. For non-rooted devices, in order to grant the READ_LOGS permission connect to a computer & copy/paste the following ADB command:
"adb shell pm grant scd.lcex android.permission.READ_LOGS"

Please note: From Android 4.1 onwards ANY logcat app needs root access in order to show logs properly.

New user interface (update 1.5):
the UI has been dramatically improved, again. Now more polished, user friendly, pure material design. All with the aim to bring a top quality app for your logcats.

Introducing "Floating Logcat" (update 1.1):
a new wonderful feature powered by StandOut, it allows you to keep the logcat on top right while you're working on your device, perfect for your tests! the logcat is shown inside a window you can move, resize and even minimize, just like a desktop one.

* Read live logcat
* Pause and resume
* Record (even in background)
* Send logs via mail
* Apply filters (priority level, format, etc.)
* Search box for quick filtering
* Many options to configure the logcat
* Read the kernel's debug messages (dmesg)
* Intuitive controls to access all the features with easy
* New "Per-app Logcat" feature!
* Revolutionary "Floating Logcat" feature!
* Floating window resizable even with pintch-to-zoom

Notes:
- In order to start a new Floating Logcat session tap the last button on the right (bottom bar).
- In order to resize the Floating Logcat drag the bottom-right corner of the window.

Devs corner:

Starting from version 1.3, devs can use intent actions and extras in order to launch the
logcat recorder directly from their apps:

"scd.lcex.ACTION_REC" start recording

"scd.lcex.ACTION_STOP" stop recording and service associated

"scd.lcex.EXTRA_FILTER" logcat filter (string, optional), use in conjunction with ACTION_REC

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

2 ★Floating logs opens, then closes instantly on my galaxy s7 edge

4 ★Cannot copy individual messages.

5 ★Does what it says.

5 ★Well designed app.

5 ★A+

5 ★Amazing

5 ★Neat interface, floating window with necessary controls, logs manageable from within the app... What more could possibly one ask for? A debugging must-have. Why is this not on top of logcat search results?

5 ★After deleting 55 system apps android settings would force close, I used logcat extreme, to find out what was causing settings to crash and it was the NFC.apk.

5 ★The per-app logging feature is a lifesaver. I found out specifically why some of my system apps were force closing. Apparently, I disabled something important in Titanium Backup. Great UI. Smooth and comprehensive logging.

4 ★Most system/power-user focused apps are often lacking a good-looking UI, which isn't the case here.

5 ★This logcat reader is the best out of the 3 I've tried. I read the last 10 one star reviews and they didn't disappoint! I'd give these people one star except they know how to breathe so they deserve two.

3 ★not saving file in case of suddenly boot (show 0 lines). can you please fix? on lg g4
