logcat
Logcat is a command-line tool available on Unix-based systems, including Android. It enables developers and users to view and analyze logs generated by the Android operating system and applications. The tool captures log messages from various sources such as system services, kernel events, and applications. These logs provide valuable information for debugging, troubleshooting, and performance analysis purposes. Logcat shows different levels of log messages, including verbose, debug, info, warning, error, and fatal. It allows developers to filter logs based on tags, prioritize logs, and format the output according to their requirements. Additionally, logcat provides options to save logs to a file, stream logs to a remote system, or clear the current log buffer.
