Shows nothing

Don't know why it don't show anything at all and there is no settings

Hello, I assume you’ve got iOS 9 or newer. Quoting from the app’s description: *** Please note that iSyslog no longer works on iOS9 and newer versions. Get the app only if your device is running prior versions of iOS. ***

Shows nothing at all.

When I open this app, I am greeted with a graphic header saying "showing all processes and logs" and a blank gray screen. Somewhat underwhelmed.

Very nice application for iPhone users.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like the app.

Helps figure out what is misbehaving

Wonderful - one of a kind on the AppStore. Helped me quickly determine and isolate cause of my iPhone's failure to back up even when Apple Support could not.

Update: iOS 9 prevents this app from working. So sad, because iSysLog was very very helpful.

Response from developer

I'm glad it helped you find the issue with your backup back then. Indeed, iSyslog no longer works on iOS9 and newer versions. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to fix it yet.

Waste of time

A big waste of money didn't see where this done anything for me.

App Ver 1.4 Crashes at Startup

On IOS 6.1.6 on an iPod Touch 4th generation the updated app ver 1.4.1 no longer crashes and the App is working as well as can be expected, considering Apple's restrictions with App Log information. iSyslog is providing all the information that I need.

Response from developer

Cool, I'm happy the update fixed the crash. Would you please update the review's subject? Thanks!

Thank you!

I know nothing about crash logs but I needed one and I got it no problem on the first try.I recommend!

Phone hacked

Lots of background noise and voices

Was a useful app but AVOID now

This was a pretty useful app under iOS 6, but it cannot show sys logs under iOS 7. The developer updated the app comments to say it doesn't work for iOS 7, but doesn't say he's working on an iOS 7 update. I suspect that means he's not. There are other apps that show system logs (like Sys Status, which was updated almost immediately) so look elsewhere.

Response from developer

I had fixed the app and it worked until iOS9 came out. Unfortunately, iSyslog no longer works on iOS9 and newer versions. And there's no way to fix this. No other developer can solve this either.

No iOS7 support

No iOS 7 support... Boo...

Works as Advertised

This app shows the syslog or basically a log of all the processes that go on in the iPhone. I found it to work very well with informative graphics. I used this to see why my hostapd process was flipping out. Don't be persuaded by the reviewer who called the app "shady". It is not shady in anyway and is very well designed. A word of advice, don't get the app unless you know what you are doing. Have fun

Waste

Shaddyyyyy

Good

Is a good app for developers not for a normal user

Wonderful App

It would be nice if when sending error reports via email, the support email addy of the app is automatically added to the email without the need for the end user to hunt it down.

Beautifully done

For those that want to know more about how their phones are running, this app does so in a manner that is both informative and beautiful. Now just make it universal :-)
