Ask for a description

On the first app launch after the crash, you decide whether or not you want Shake to ask your user to describe the crash.

Introduction​

This option is disabled by default. If you keep it this way, the crash report will be sent to you instantly and silently.

Enable​

If you enable it, a sheet will be shown to your user, giving them an opportunity to describe what they were doing before the crash, potentially providing you with additional helpful information.

Ask for description sheet

To enable it:

  1. First, set the isAskForCrashDescriptionEnabled flag to true.
  2. Then, call the Shake.start method.
AppDelegate.swift
Shake.configuration.isAskForCrashDescriptionEnabled = true

What happens next​

If the user decides they don't want to add their own description (they tap outside the sheet) → the crash report will be sent to you silently anyway.

If the user decides they do want to add their own description (they tap the confirmation button) but then discards their ticket on the New ticket screen → the crash report will be discarded.
