Description

In the previous bug reporting system (where it just sent an email), a user could see the logs they were sending in but with this new system I can't see a way to see the logs I am sending. Privacy conscious users are going to be reluctant to send in bug reports if they can't view the logs before sending them in.

Research direction

Start by locating the new bug-reporting flow in the iOS app and identify where debug logs are collected before the report is sent. Trace how the logs are included in the outgoing report, then make the collected content viewable to users before submission and verify that the preview matches what will be sent.
