School’s back in session, and we have lots of upgrades and enhancements for you.

Last month, we launched group support for Beta by Crashlytics and improved plugin support on Android. This month (while many of you were no doubt waiting in line for your new iPhone), we shipped enhanced features for Answers by Crashlytics and Beta by Crashlytics, launching Swift support and improved version tracking. Oh, and we also unveiled our participation in Twitter’s first mobile developer conference, Flight. Will we see you there?

Improved alerts

When we launched Answers by Crashlytics, we set out to create a mobile analytics tool that required zero analysis. We wanted the alerts to be so intuitive that you could understand the pulse of your app with just a glance. Now with email alerts, it’s even easier for you.

Our daily digest offers a summary of your app’s performance from the previous day. With these top-level metrics, you easily get a sense for how your apps are performing without you needing to do any analysis – delivered right to your inbox. With our real-time stability alert email, you know immediately if the stability of your apps has changed. No need to sit and watch your dashboard all day, we’ll deliver the information to you, with the ability to easily jump back into the stability page of your Answers dashboard. And as with all of our email notifications, you can easily manage your preferences in your settings dashboard.

The more the merrier

Last month, we launched group support for Beta by Crashlytics, giving you the ability to send specific builds to a specific set of testers based on their development cycle. This month, we added the ability to upload .csv files. Now you can easily import lists and add testers to groups to get even more of them up and running.

Gone, but not forgotten

We know many you have very active release cycles; older versions of your app quickly become outdated. We heard you loud and clear when you asked for the ability to archive old versions so you can declutter your version list. Now, your dashboard shows a quick view of the versions that matter most.

We love when you share ideas of how we can make app development easier, and are always eager to learn how we can help. Make sure you keeping sending along feedback, product requests or just say hi to our team at [email protected].

Build how you want, where you want

When Apple promoted Swift as a language that was easier to read and maintain, we wanted to get on board. So this month, we launched support for Swift apps, providing developers with the flexibility you need to build inside existing workflows and streamline the overall development process. We developed a customized onboarding experience with our Mac app letting you choose between building with Objective-C or Swift. Whether you’re new to Crashlytics or migrating to this new language, you’ll experience the same powerful features, combined with native support for Swift-based builds.

Join us at Flight
