Whether you're debugging your app, analyzing system performance or troubleshooting device issues, Logcat Extreme provides the features and flexibility you need.

"adb shell pm grant scd.lcexpro android.permission.READ_LOGS"

* Pause & Resume: Freeze the logcat stream whenever you need to examine specific entries without missing any crucial information.
* Background Recording: Capture logs even when the app is closed, ensuring you don't miss a single event.
* Powerful Filtering: Refine your logcat view with filters based on priority level, format, and keywords to isolate the information you need. Use the search box for quick filtering.
* Kernel Debugging (dmesg): Access kernel debug messages for advanced system-level analysis.
* Share Logs with Ease: Share log files or send logs via email on the fly.
* Floating Logcat (resizable & minimizable): Keep the logcat on top while using other apps, perfect for real-time monitoring during development and testing. Resize and minimize the floating window for optimal workflow.
* Intuitive design: Enjoy a clean, modern and user-friendly interface designed for efficient logcat management.

For developers:

Use intent actions and extras in order to launch the
logcat recorder directly from your apps:

"scd.lcexpro.ACTION_REC" start recording
"scd.lcexpro.ACTION_STOP" stop recording and associated service
"scd.lcexpro.EXTRA_FILTER" logcat filter (string, optional), use in conjunction with ACTION_REC

Basic features missing, e.g., select and copy text. Floating window missing some non-floating window options, such as saving. There's no way to return from the floating window to the non-floating state. The floating window's search bar should be placed at the top of the window to reduce the likelihood of it being covered by the keyboard. The search option is only available for the main log and not for the kernel or app logs. Need event type filters. Doesn't support native windowing (crashes).

Like the app's description says, you need either root access or to manually grant READ_LOGS via adb in order to see much of anything, so verify you can do so successfully with the non-paid version (Logcat Extreme) first. Hint: you should see thousands+ of messages, not like ten! But as long as you are rooted or can grant that right successfully, this app is extraordinarily useful. And remember, there are three buffers: default view is "Main," but there are also "Events" and "Radio."
