  • Patent number: 10645103
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a novel method for monitoring instances of an application operating on a set of mobile devices. In some embodiments, the method receives content data to be used by the application and injects monitoring code into the content data before providing it to a web view of the application. In some embodiments, the content data includes various types of content (e.g., multimedia files, scripts, data files, etc.) received from a content server managed by the developer of the application and may be used by the native code and/or the web view of the hybrid application. The content data of some embodiments also includes monitoring code that is inserted by the developer of the application to monitor developer-specified events in the native code and/or web view. The method of some embodiments gathers monitored data from both the native code and the web view.

  • Patent number: 10552852
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a service monitor that operates on a number of different mobile devices to track and monitor services that an application is using. An application may depend on a number of services, such as network services to access various cloud services. The service monitor operates in conjunction with the application to gather data relating to the services and send the gathered data to an API server. The gathering of the data can occur in many mobile devices that are of different types, that are from various different vendors, and/or that operate on different mobile operating systems.

  • Patent number: 10185611
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system that allows application developers to track and monitor crashes that are occurring with their applications on various mobile devices. In some embodiments, crash logs are received from the mobile devices. Hash codes are generated based on the crash logs. A report to summarize the crash logs is generated based on the hash codes.

  • Patent number: 9697545
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a service monitor that operates on a number of different mobile devices to track and monitor services that an application is using. The service monitor of some embodiments includes a service call wrapper to intercept a request made by the application to access the service and capture data relating to the service request. The service monitor then sends the captured data to a performance monitoring server in order to present, based on the captured data and other captured data from other mobile devices, a set of performance reports relating to the performance of the service as used by the same application across a number of mobile devices.

  • Patent number: 9639412
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide application performance management tools with a service monitor that operates on a number of different mobile devices to track and monitor services that an application is using. In some embodiments, the service monitor stores a log relating to the use of the service each time the application uses the service. The application performance tool also includes an error monitor to detect an application error and report the application error to a performance monitoring server along with one or more logs relating to the use of the service when the error is detected. The performance monitoring server then provides an error report with the one or more logs to assist a developer in diagnosing the cause of the error with the application.

  • Publication number: 20160350170
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system that allows application developers to track and monitor crashes that are occurring with their applications on various mobile devices. In some embodiments, the system includes an application programing interface (API) server that receives crash reports with raw crash data from the mobile devices and facilitates in assigning each crash report to one of several different crash processing servers. The crash processing server of some embodiments receives the raw crash data and translates obscure data in the raw crash data into a human or developer readable form.

  • Patent number: 9438491
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a network service monitor that operates on a number of different mobile devices to track and monitor network services that an application is using. The network service monitor of some embodiments includes a monitored connection object to capture data relating to the network service from a network connection each time the application uses the network connection to access the network service. The network service monitor then sends captured data to a performance monitoring server in order to present, based on the captured data and other captured data from other mobile devices, at least one performance report relating to the performance of the network service as used by the same application across a number of mobile devices. In some embodiments, the network connection is a socket connection.
