Sentry for Android

Android crash reporting without the Firebase lock-in

One Gradle dependency captures crashes, errors, ANRs, and performance from your Kotlin app — with zero-code manifest setup, OkHttp tracing, and a Timber module, on the same platform as your backend errors and logs.

Why Android apps need real crash reporting

Android failure modes hide well. A crash on one manufacturer's Android skin never reproduces on your test devices; an ANR freezes the main thread until the system offers "Close app" — and the user takes the offer, uninstalls, and leaves a review about the app "not working". The Play Console shows you aggregates days later; it doesn't show you the stack trace, the release, or the request that caused it.

The official Sentry Android SDK sends supported crash events to AllStak through your project DSN. Add io.sentry:sentry-android, initialize SentryAndroid, and validate one handled failure and one test crash before rollout.

Full Android monitoring

From a crash on a device you've never seen to the ANR nobody reports and the API call behind it, AllStak covers your Android app across every layer.

Automatic crash reporting

Use the official Sentry Android crash integration and validate automatic uncaught-exception capture in a test build.

ANR capture

ANRs — the freezes that end with the system's "Close app" dialog and no crash report — are captured alongside your crashes, so they finally show up somewhere.

Zero-code setup

Initialize SentryAndroid with your AllStak DSN in the Application class or use the official manifest-based configuration.

Handled exceptions with metadata

Report handled errors via captureException with a metadata map — like the order ID in flight — and leave leveled messages via captureMessage.

OkHttp tracing

Use the official Sentry OkHttp integration for supported request spans and W3C trace propagation, subject to AllStak's compatibility matrix.

Timber integration

The optional Timber module plugs into the logging you already write — so the log lines around a crash travel with it instead of staying on the device.

Add AllStak in minutes

Add the Gradle dependency (with optional OkHttp and Timber modules) and initialize in your Application class — or use zero-code manifest meta-data instead.

App.kt
dependencies {
    implementation("io.sentry:sentry-android")
}

SentryAndroid.init(this) { options ->
    options.dsn = BuildConfig.ALLSTAK_DSN
    options.environment = "production"
}

Use the official Sentry Android manifest configuration if you prefer declarative setup, provide the AllStak DSN through a protected build-time resource, and verify a test event before rollout. full setup guide · SDK reference.

What you see in AllStak

Crash detail with full context

Open any crash to the stack trace, the metadata you attached, the environment, and the release it shipped in — reproduction without the guesswork.

ANRs next to crashes

The main-thread freezes that never generate a crash report show up as first-class events — so "the app stopped responding" becomes a ticket you can act on.

Network calls with trace headers

Supported OkHttp requests instrumented by the official Sentry integration carry W3C trace context so a slow mobile screen can connect to its backend trace.

Unified real-time dashboard

Android crashes next to the backend errors, logs, and uptime of the APIs behind them — one dashboard, in English or Arabic, for the whole team.

Why teams pick AllStak for Android

  • Mobile and backend on one platform — crashes, errors, logs, traces, and uptime with one bill.
  • One Gradle dependency — crashes captured automatically, with zero-code manifest setup if you prefer.
  • Not tied to Firebase — crash reporting without adopting a whole second vendor ecosystem.
  • ANRs captured alongside crashes — the failures the Play Console only shows you in aggregate.
  • Predictable SAR pricing with a genuine free tier — start without a credit card.
  • Data stays in Saudi Arabia, with an English and Arabic dashboard for the whole team.

Android crash reporting FAQ

How do I add crash reporting to an Android app?

Add the official io.sentry:sentry-android dependency and initialize SentryAndroid with the DSN from AllStak project setup. Verify one handled exception and one crash in a test build before rollout.

Does AllStak capture ANRs?

Yes. The Android SDK captures crashes, errors, ANRs, and performance — so the main-thread freezes that end with the system's "Close app" dialog reach your dashboard even though no crash report is ever written.

Is AllStak an alternative to Firebase Crashlytics for Android?

Yes. You get crash reporting and Kotlin error tracking without tying your app to Firebase — and unlike Crashlytics, the same platform also monitors your backend errors, logs, traces, and uptime. Add a bilingual English/Arabic dashboard, SAR pricing, and data stored in Saudi Arabia, and the whole stack lives in one place.

Can I set it up without writing any code?

Yes. Follow the official Sentry Android manifest configuration, supply the AllStak DSN through a protected build resource, and set stable environment and release values explicitly.

Is AllStak free for Android?

Yes. AllStak has a free tier you can start on without a credit card, and predictable SAR pricing as you grow. The Android SDK itself is free to use.
