We're using TestFlight to send out pilots of our app.
There's a part of the app that is crashing, and we had a lot of trouble reproducing the crash. The code their is fairly simple.
It turns out that the users who got the App via TestFlight get the crash, while if you build the app and install it using the IDE it doesn't crash!
Anyone have ideas about what might be causing this?
Any ideas for workarounds? We don't want to stop using TestFlight.
Make sure to build your app in Release Mode not in Debug. The app may only crash when in Release.
The first thing I'd try is to map the crash stack trace to function names in your application. This may yield useful insight into the nature of the crash:
Manual symbolication: This will work as long as your builds have debug information.
Run the following command on the executable file (Payload/AppName.app/AppName):
otool -tv AppName.app | c++filt > listing.asm
Wait while the previous step completes (may take a while). The generated listing.asm file will be several megabytes long.
Of course, if you're able to symbolicate, you can skip this procedure.
Good luck debugging!
We had a similar problem. The issue with us was static libraries. When we built the app from scratch and went to testflight, it was crashing but from the IDE it wasn't. The crash was because the static libraries did not get included when doing a build, but was getting included if I connected the iPad direct and used XCode to install.
A simple test will prove this:-
1.) Instead of building from IDE, create a .app file and then load it via iTunes and check if you are getting the crash.
We worked around this by creating the .iPA manually, that is creating the .app then making a Payload folder and putting the .app in it along with the info.plist.
Then things began to work in Testflight as well.
