SysLog

SysLog is an invaluable tool designed for tech-savvy users who require a straightforward solution to capture and share system logs. This open-source utility necessitates root access for its full range of functionality, offering the ability to fetch the main log, Logcat, through ADB commands. Logcat is essential for identifying and diagnosing system issues, with access granted via a simple ADB command.

The utility supports a variety of log types, including Kernel logs, Last kernel log, Pstore logs, Main log (Logcat), Modem log, Event logs, and SELinux audit logs. It doesn't just collect these logs; SysLog also conveniently compresses them into a single zip file for easy sharing or uploading, which is particularly useful for debugging system-related problems.

The latest version, 2.0.0, introduces a feature that allows users to view current system logs in near-real time, contributing significantly to the tool's utility for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting.

Additionally, the app includes the capability to add notes to the zip file for extra context and allows for appending a custom suffix, up to 10 characters, to the filename, which aids in the organization and recognition of logs.

This application stands out by employing reputable open-source libraries such as libsuperuser, AndroidX, the Material Design library, and the Android-Terminal-Emulator. It includes a log scrubbing feature inspired by the CyanogenMod bug report tool, emphasizing its effectiveness in log analysis.
