About This App

Crash Reporter is a utility that handles the capture and reporting of application crash data on macOS. The app sits in the background and automatically collects detailed crash logs when other applications encounter errors, making that information available to developers for troubleshooting and bug fixes. It has been part of macOS for many years and is particularly useful for developers, testers, and power users who need to diagnose application failures and send diagnostic information to developers. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

A native Apple Silicon build of Crash Reporter exists and has been confirmed in use. Since this is a component of the Breakpad crash reporting framework, the best way to get the native version depends on how it is installed on your Mac. If Crash Reporter was installed as part of another application's installer or update, simply update that parent application to its latest version — the native Crash Reporter build will come along with it. If you have a standalone installation, visit the Breakpad project repository on GitHub or the vendor's official distribution channel to download the latest release, which includes native Apple Silicon support. After installing the native build, your crash logging will run more efficiently on M-series Macs with lower CPU overhead.
