The stack trace is good... I need to implement that.

The easy and quickest thing to do is to ask your customers to send you the crash logs if your application crashes. They will be generated automatically by CrashReporter and easily located by customers. ...in other words nothing to implement.


Review... <http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2004/tn2123.html>

Well.... it can be worthwhile to scan for a crash report when the application launches, and if some are found, to ask the user whether they can be sent home (and if he approves, do that programmatically). Although it is really easy to send the reports, in my experience, *lotta* users don't care. (Well in a sense they are right: they are *users* after all, not betatesters ;))


There is also a problem in case your software is a plug-in (instead of a stand-alone application), since (without an extra support) there is no way to know whether is was the plug-in which crashed the app or not.
