Additional Debugging Info
The developers sometimes need additional info about your problem because they cannot reproduce it. This happens, for example, when a problem is restricted to certain countries or caused by network / proxy settings. Hence the developers may get different responses from a service than you.
You'll be asked by a developer to generate additional information and send it to a developer's email address. Please do not post the additional info on GitHub, because it might contain sensitive information about your NewPipe usage.
A HAR contains the network traffic you caused while using NewPipe. Logging this information is not possible with the "normal" NewPipe version. To get this sensitive information, you will need to install a debugging version of NewPipe. When asking you to generate a HAR, the dev should provide you a debugging version. If this is not the case, don't hesitate to ask for one!
- Enable USB debugging.
- Connect your phone to your PC through USB.
- Open Chrome, type
