Logcat Reader -

View, search and save your device's logs

Logcat Reader makes it easy to view and save the device logs. The source code is available at github.com/darshanparajuli/LogcatReader.

Features:

• Color coded logs based on log priority

• Search through log messages and tags (supports highlighting)

• Option to select from available log buffers*

• Save logs as a simple text file (as you would see via logcat)

• Material theme (includes dark mode and dynamic color options)

• Compact view option

*May not work on all devices, in which case, the option will simply not be present in Settings.

Permissions:

android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Needed for saving logs.

android.permission.READ_LOGS

Required for showing all of the logs, not just the ones produced by the Logcat Reader app itself; instructions to grant this permission will show every time the app is opened.

Tested on:

HTC One (m7)

HTC 10

Pixel 9 Pro
