Logcat Extreme: Your Comprehensive Log Management Solution
Logcat Extreme by SCDevs offers a powerful and user-friendly interface for monitoring and managing Android system logs, making it an essential tool for developers and advanced users alike.
Logcat Extreme is a Logcat/Dmesg reader and Logcat recorder that offers a variety of features and a convenient user interface.
Please be informed that Logcat Extreme requires root access or READ_LOGS permission to display logs correctly. For devices without root access, you may grant the READ_LOGS permission by connecting to a computer and executing the following ADB command: "adb shell pm grant scd.lcex android.permission.READ_LOGS".
It's worth noting that starting from Android 4.1, any logcat app needs root access to display logs accurately.
New user interface (update 1.5): The user interface has undergone significant enhancements, once again. It is now more refined, user-friendly, and adheres to Material Design principles, all geared towards delivering a premium logcat experience.
Introducing "Floating Logcat" (update 1.1): This new feature, powered by StandOut, enables users to keep the logcat display in the top-right corner while working on their device, making it ideal for testing purposes. The logcat is presented in a movable window that can be resized and minimized, resembling desktop functionality.

Notes:

Developers' corner:
Starting from version 1.3, developers can utilize intent actions and extras to launch the logcat recorder directly from their applications:
- "scd.lcex.ACTION_REC": Start recording
- "scd.lcex.ACTION_STOP": Stop recording and associated service
- "scd.lcex.EXTRA_FILTER": Logcat filter (string, optional), use together with ACTION_REC
