Firebase Crashlytics with Gen-AI Powered Debugging using Gemini

Cover Image for Firebase Crashlytics with Gen-AI Powered Debugging using Gemini

Firebase Crashlytics has long been our go-to solution for monitoring crashes and errors in our mobile app (because of simple in nature), particularly in our React Native apps.

However, debugging these issues often proved challenging with the standard crash data. Firebase's new Gen-AI Assistant using Gemini AI feature addresses these limitations, offering a more comprehensive debugging experience.

The Gen-AI powered system provides four key capabilities:

Example: Gen-AI generated crash summary from one of our app.

1. Crash Summary:

This summary option provides clear & short summaries of crash events. Developers can quickly understand what users experienced. It also reveals the root causes behind each failure.

2. Potential Causes

With help of Gemini AI, It uses advanced pattern recognition to detect crash triggers. It identifies the conditions that caused the issue.This makes troubleshooting faster and more efficient.

3. Analysis and debugging recommendations:

The assistant powered by Gemini provides step-by-step recommendations for investigating and resolving each issue, drawing from established debugging best practices.

4. Preventive Steps:

By analyzing Firebase's extensive documentation and development resources, the Gemini AI suggests specific approaches to fortify your code against similar crashes in the future.

And this integration aims to streamline the debugging workflow, particularly beneficial for mobile app developers who previously struggled with limited crash insights.

You can follow this guidelines from official documentation to enable this feature in Firebase Crashlytics.

Note: AI assistance in Crashlytics is available as part of Gemini in Firebase, which is included at no-cost or as part of Gemini Code Assist. See Gemini in Firebase pricing for more information.
