Open Source Android Debuggers

Flipper is a platform for debugging iOS, Android and React Native apps. Visualize, inspect, and control your apps from a simple desktop interface. Use Flipper as is or extend it using the plugin API. Flipper aims to be your number one companion for mobile app development on iOS and Android. Therefore, we provide a bunch of useful tools including a log viewer, interactive layout inspector, and network inspector. Flipper is built as a platform. In addition to using the tools already included, you can create your own plugins to visualize and debug data from your mobile apps. Flipper takes care of sending data back and forth, calling functions, and listening for events on the mobile app. Both Flipper's desktop app and native mobile SDKs are open-source and MIT licensed. This enables you to see and understand how we are building plugins, and of course join the community and help improve Flipper. We are excited to see what you will build on this platform.

RenderDoc is a free MIT licensed stand-alone graphics debugger that allows quick and easy single-frame capture and detailed introspection of any application using Vulkan, D3D11, OpenGL & OpenGL ES or D3D12 across Windows 7 - 10, Linux, Android, Stadia, or Nintendo Switch™. I work on RenderDoc myself and you can always contact me with any problems or comments. I'll respond to you directly and personally, and I'm used to helping people with private or NDA'd projects. RenderDoc is 100% open source and development all happens on github. Check out the source and see how any feature is implemented, report a bug you've found, or request a new feature or improvement. Usability matters. Tools should have a low barrier to entry and be easy to use and understand. RenderDoc makes the process of getting started as smooth as possible, and simplifies common workflows. Support is distributed separately for authorized developers as part of the NintendoSDK.

GT (Great Tit) is a portable debugging tool for bug hunting and performance tuning on smartphones anytime and anywhere just as listening music with Walkman. GT can act as the Integrated Debug Environment by directly running on smartphones. With the help of GT, you can carry out the following jobs only using one smartphone: quick performance tests (CPU, memory, flow, power, fluency tests etc.), viewing developer log and crash log, capturing the network packets, debugging the APP internal parameters and code time-consuming statistics. If the functions GT provides cannot meet your requirements, you can also develop your own GT plugins with special functions to help solving more complicated debugging issues. The IOS GT is a Framework package, which must be compiled into your APPs before being used. It can be supported by both iPhone and iPad APPs.

ACRA is a library enabling Android applications to automatically post their crash reports to a report server. It is targeted to android applications developers to help them get data from their applications when they crash or behave erroneously. 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.

Android Debug Database allows you to view databases and shared preferences directly in your browser in a very simple way. Android Debug Database is a powerful library for debugging databases and shared preferences in Android applications. Delete database rows and shared preferences. Search in your data. Sort data. Download database. Debug Room inMemory database. As this library is auto-initialize, if you want to get the address log, add the following method and call (we have to do like this to avoid build error in release build as this library will not be included in the release build) using reflection. Using the Android Debug Database with an encrypted database. See all the data in the shared preferences used in your application. Run any sql query on the given database to update and delete your data.

LeakCanary is a reliable memory leak detection library for Android. It effectively detects leaks and narrows down the cause of each leak through its in-depth knowledge of the internals of the Android Framework. This helps developers avoid and dramatically reduce OutOfMemoryError (OOM) crashes. A memory leak is a programming error that can cause an OutOfMemoryError crash. It’s often caused by bugs related to the lifecycle of objects, and can occur fairly often in Android applications. LeakCanary helps to find and fix those leaks during development so you never have to experience another OOM crash.

ELFIO is a header-only C++ library intended for reading and generating files in the ELF binary format

Shadowsocks-libev is a lightweight secured SOCKS5 proxy for embedded devices and low-end boxes. Shadowsocks-libev is written in pure C and depends on libev. It's designed to be a lightweight implementation of shadowsocks protocol, in order to keep the resource usage as low as possible. Snap is the recommended way to install the latest binaries. You can build shadowsocks-libev and all its dependencies by script. The latest shadowsocks-libev has provided a redir mode. You can configure your Linux-based box or router to proxy all TCP traffic transparently, which is handy if you use an OpenWRT-powered router. Although shadowsocks-libev can handle thousands of concurrent connections nicely, we still recommend setting up your server's firewall rules to limit connections from each user. We strongly encourage you to install shadowsocks-libev from jessie-backports-sloppy.

kodeWeave is a realtime coding playground for HTML, CSS and Javascript. Similar to JSFiddle and JSBin, but kodeWeave was made to work offline but also as a prototyping application to build applications for desktop operating systems while on mobile devices. (PhoneGap Build is recommended for mobile devices) kodeWeave similar to jsfiddle, jsbin, dabblet, liveweave, codepen, cssdeck, cssdesk, tinkerbin, d3 playground, plunker and pastebin, but allows you to export your web app as a desktop and/or chrome application.

When I got my first Android tablet; I realized how much web design and development were such a tedious process for a large majority of tablet and smart phone users. I found no applications available in Google Play that enabled live code debugging which gave me the incentive to develop one myself. After purchasing Google's developer fee, as well as AIDE I then released on Google Play for all to use.

CrashLog is a crash report platform for Android developer, helping developers to quickly locate problems.

Robust is an Android HotFix solution with high compatibility and high stability. Robust can fix bugs immediately without a reboot. Robust is an Android HotFix solution with high compatibility and high stability. Robust can fix bugs immediately without publishing apk. Support fixing at method level,including static methods. Support add classes and methods. Support ProGuard,including inline methods or changing methods' signature. AutoPatch will generate patch for Robust automatically. You should modify inner classes' private constructors to public modifier. Classes added in patch should be static nested classes or non-inner classes,and all fields and methods in added class should be public.

Stetho is a sophisticated debug bridge for Android applications. When enabled, developers have access to the Chrome Developer Tools feature natively part of the Chrome desktop browser. Developers can also choose to enable the optional dumpapp tool which offers a powerful command-line interface to application internals. Alternatively you can include Stetho from Maven Central via Gradle or Maven. Only the main stetho dependency is strictly required, however you may also wish to use one of the network helpers. The integration with the Chrome DevTools frontend is implemented using a client/server protocol which the Stetho software provides for your application. Once your application is integrated, simply navigate to chrome://inspect and click “Inspect” to get started! Network inspection is possible with the full spectrum of Chrome Developer Tools features, including image preview, JSON response helpers, and even exporting traces to the HAR format.
