Repro Steps

How to automatically mask the screens reported in Repro Steps

Repro Steps is your go-to tool for understanding what led to a bug or crash in your app. This guide will help you make the most of Repro Steps.

What are "Repro Steps"?

Repro Steps capture and present all the actions a user takes in your app before encountering a bug or crash. These steps are grouped by the app view, and you can view user steps alongside relevant screenshots. It's like having a play-by-play visual and written record of the user's actions leading to the problem.

Understanding the Setup

Repro Steps are organized by the different screens in your app that users interact with. Each screen view visited by the user contains a set of chronological steps, giving you a clear picture of what led to the reported issue.

Understanding Logged Data and Captured Events

Logged data captures user interactions, such as swipes, scrolls, taps, and more. It provides insights into how users engage with your app. The captured events track app states, including background/foreground transitions, activity changes, and memory warnings.

Auto Masking

The default value is webViews. Starting from SDK version 19.2.0, WebViews are masked by default in screenshots to protect potentially sensitive content.
