RiPlay has an internal logging mechanism which records (once enabled) crashes. To get the crash log do the following steps:
- Go to
Settings > Miscellaneous > Debug. - Enable "Enable debug logs".
- Restart the app.
- Try to reproduce the bug.
- Return to the same position in settings and copy the crash log to clipboard with the corresponding button.
You cannot use this method to retrieve crash logs that occurred before the debug setting was activated.
This also means that for all version before the (currently upcoming) version 0.6.47, updating via in-app update check will fail, as the apk now has a new name. This means that updating to the latest version has to be done manually with all versions up until 0.6.46.
