Description

Expected behaviour

I get the crash report.

Actual behaviour

I get a file with the file location and some trash:
"bplist00£_Ofile:///var/mobile/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/[appname]-2019-12-27-200453.ipsP– ^_����������������������������`"

Note: "[appname]" has been put in place instead of the actual app name.

Steps to reproduce
  • Go to iOS' settings, go to privacy
  • Scroll down to "Analysis", select it
  • Pick any crash report, select the share icon
  • Upload the file with Nextcloud

Research direction

Start with the iOS share flow described in the reproduction steps, using the Share icon action from the crash report as the entry point. Trace how the selected crash report is read and uploaded; done means Nextcloud receives the crash report contents rather than a file containing only its device location.
