MacDevCrashReporter

This free service for iPhone and Mac developers is based on the open source project CrashReporterDemo, which itself also includes other Open Source Software like PLCrashReporter.

When developing an iPhone or Mac OS X application there will always be bugs, and some of these bugs cause your app to crash. The earlier these problems can be identified, the better the stability of your app gets. When the app crashes the iPhone and Mac OS X will create a crash report file and these files are what the developer should be very interested in. Now for iPhone apps, Apple introduced a system which provides this data once the app is released. But there is always a time gap of days or weeks once that data is available for new releases, also beta releases cannot benefit from that. On Mac OS X these reports are also send to Apple, but there is currently no way to get them back.
This is where CrashReporterDemo and MacDevCrashReporter.com comes in. The project provides clients for iPhone apps and Mac OS X (currently in beta) which allows each developer to get these reports for any release and right away.
