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.

Features

  • Effectively and automatically finds and fixes memory leaks in various objects (destroyed activity/fragment/fragment view instances, cleared viewmodel instances)
  • Easy to install and use
