@andreia-ferreira PTAL?

[andreia-ferreira]

i don't see any 'Fatal exception' in that stacktrace, which means it may not be directly related to a crash (unless maybe it's an OOM or ANR). The java.lang.SecurityException: Unknown calling package name 'com.google.android.gms' is a common internal warning from Play services, especially in debug builds or emulators, and usually appears in logcat without causing crashes or affecting app functionality. @gino-m can you provide a bit more details on this, specifically:

• by "force quit" do you mean a crash? If so could you find the event in Crashlytics?
• what does "Lacuna: dev project refer to, is it a separate firebase project?
• was that a 1 time crash or is it consistently happening. If consistent, can you share steps to reproduce? 🙏

by "force quit" do you mean a crash? If so could you find the event in Crashlytics?

Yes, a crash. I unfortunately don't see it reported in dev Crashlytics.

what does "Lacuna: dev project refer to, is it a separate firebase project?

I should have said "Lacuna survey". It's the public test survey on our dev server.

was that a 1 time crash or is it consistently happening. If consistent, can you share steps to reproduce? 🙏

It was a 1 time crash. The steps to reproduce:

• Sign into a dev build on local emu (Medium Phone API 36.1, Android 16.0 | arm64)
• Select "Lacuna" survey
• Click "+" to start collecting data

A few steps into the data collection flow the app crashed unexpectedly.

[andreia-ferreira]

thanks for the details, I'll look into it! I don't see that survey listed though, maybe I need to be added. Can you add andreia.pintoferreira@fao.org?
