How to get iPhone crash log from customers?

Is there a way to have our own app to upload its crash repot?

I want to implement "Report a problem" button in my app, which sends me the logs of the user's app as a text file (by email), so I can see what is the problem.
Is there any way to do so?
Thanks in advance!
I have used QuincyKit to capture and retrieve crash logs from customers. It takes a bit of time, but once you get it set up, it works very well.
Crashlytics is definitely the way to go with crash logs. It is by far the easiest to implement and provides excellent information for solving problems as well as allows remote logging. It also means you will get the crash logs even without your users emailing them to you.
I'd still include a report a problem button that simply allows the user to email you if they have a problem specifically, but generally they won't for crashes.

Detect iOS application about to delete?
(3 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I have a very specific need to handle some cases if my iOS app gets uninstalled. But I cannot find any method so far that gets called in case the app gets uninstalled. I have searched around with similar questions but cannot find anything usefull. Can anyone suggest something please.
No, its not possible.
But you can check if the application has re-installed by storing a key in iCloud using keychain.

Is it possible to reset the privacy settings in iOS?

I'm working on an app that requires requesting mail access. Since the simulator doesn't have a Mail app I've been using my physical device to test the app.
My problem is that I want to test the request to access Mail in relation to the welcome/intro screen that I've made but even if I delete the Xcode build version of the app from my device the settings for allowing the Mail access still persist.
I want to force those settings to delete when I delete my app from the device so that it requests Mail access after every fresh install for the sake of testing. So far the only solution that I've seen for doing this is to complete a fresh install of iOS each time, but that's much to much trouble when I'd be wanting to do it several times.
Does anybody have a solution for this?
The simulator does actually have a Calendar and I do plenty of testing on it. If you want to add more calendars via the simulator, open the calendar app, tap edit at the top and you can enter new calendars.
Here's the solution I found thanks to #Martin R's comment.
Go to General > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy
This reset accomplished what I needed for the problem.
I've myself run into the same problem when allowing photo access.
It's not a proper answer, but the workaround I found was effective: just change the bundle id when you want to test this behaviour. iOS will assume it's a different app and ask you again for all the authorisations granted before.
I'm still interested by the proper answer though — if there ever is one.

Programmatically lock and unlock iPhone screen
(8 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I've seen an app that activates the lock-screen after showing a local notification (so the user has to enter the passcode).
... and now I wonder how they did this, since I need this kind of functionality for one of my projects. It might even pass Apple's review process because it does make sense for this app... (and, yes, I'm aware that Apple might reject it, but I'd like to give it a shot).
How would I do this???
I don't believe it is possible as the framework that handles this is private.
iOS 8.1 does not offer API to do this. Most likely you have seen an App implementing its own lock screen. You will need to implement something similar.
You can find examples on GitHub, e.g. https://github.com/venmo/VENTouchLock

Is there a way to read the crash log of an app at runtime?
What I mean is this, have some method running at the first beginning of an app that will monitor if the app crashed last time. If so, it will read the crash log, attach it to an email and send it to me.
I know apple has that functionality on iTC but it just shows crashes for a large amount of users and I want to know about all crashes that may be happening without my knowledge. You know, users don't give a crap and will never warn you.
Is this possible?
You could try using the TestFlight SDK. If the app crashes a crash report can be read on the website.

Programmatically answer an incoming phone call on iPhone
(1 answer)
Closed 9 years ago.
Is it possible to programmatically answer a call in iPhone? I have already googled about this and found that iOS SDK does not support such feature. But I found an answering machine app in Appstore.
https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/prank-answering-machine-free/id508457142?mt=8
Please help me out.
No this is not possible, the iOS SDK does not allow any interaction with the phone.app.
Also the app you have found is a prank app, one that you start if you receive a call and the play back one the messages from the app.
No, that is not possible. The CoreTelephony framework lets your application receive notifications if there is any change in the call state, but there is no way to answer it.
The app that you mentioned does not say anything about answering a call, from what I can see.
I would say it depends. If you want to make a app and publish it in app store, its not possible. However if you want don't want to publish on app store and willing to use private api, then its possible. Refer this answer.
