What is ACRA ?

ACRA is an open-source library for Android developers to easily integrate crash reporting into their applications. It provides a comprehensive set of features, including customizable reporting, support for multiple different senders, and flexible data collection options, enabling developers to quickly identify and diagnose issues in their apps.

ACRA is used in 1.57% (See AppBrain/stats) of all apps on Google Play as of June 2020. That's over 13 thousand apps and over 5 billion downloads including ACRA.

A crash reporting feature for android apps is native since Android 2.2 (FroYo) but only available through the official Android Market (and with limited data). ACRA is a great help for Android developers:

ACRA's notification systems are clean. If a crash occurs, your application does not add user notifications over existing system's crash notifications or reporting features. By default, the "force close" dialog is not displayed anymore, to enable it set alsoReportToAndroidFramework to true.

The user is notified of an error only once, and you might enhance the perceived quality of your application by defining your own texts in the notifications/dialogs.

Please do not hesitate to open defects/enhancements requests in the issue tracker.

Backends

Acrarium is the official backend for report storage and analysis. Acrarium is still in active development.

Acralyzer was the official backend before that. It runs on CouchDB, for which free hosting solutions exist. It is feature complete, but currently unmaintained. Anybody picking this project up is very welcome.

A lot of other solutions have been provided by the community, just check which one you like most.
