Debug iOS crashes efficiently with Datadog RUM

What's this blog post about?

Recent research indicates that approximately 20% of iOS app uninstalls are due to crashes or other code errors. To manage this potential churn, developers can use Datadog's RUM iOS SDK to collect crash data and correlate it with user metadata and app interactions. This helps determine the scope of application errors, allowing for effective triaging and debugging. The SDK enables collection of logs, traces, and RUM data from mobile applications, as well as crash reports. Datadog's CLI can be used to symbolicate iOS crash data by replacing memory addresses with meaningful symbols in stacktraces. Error Tracking monitors iOS crash reports, groups similar errors together into issues, and enriches each error with key metadata for root-cause analysis. Alerts can be set up using Datadog's event monitors to inform developers of new issues in specific environments or view paths.
