bitdrift Capture is a mobile observability platform that lets teams adjust telemetry collection remotely. Its SDK keeps telemetry on the device and selectively uploads it under real-time control. Capture detects and groups fatal issues, with session context that can include network activity, logs, feature flags and user interactions. Instant Insights provides real-time views of app health, user experience, resource use and network performance. The maker says the compiled SDK is under 1 MB and supports configurable memory, disk and CPU use. Native SDK layers are described for iOS and Android, and supported platforms include React Native. Logging integrations include Timber, CocoaLumberjack and SwiftyBeaver; other listed options include OpenTelemetry, AWS CloudWatch, Datadog On-Call, PagerDuty and Slack. Jira, Linear, Grafana and Runway are marked as coming soon. The free tier is free and includes five users, 100,000 crash reports per month, 50,000 active applications per month, 14-day data retention and three custom workflows.
