How to make .NET MAUI to show logs from native code

Question

I included custom native Android and iOS libraries in my .NET MAUI app. The native libraries are supposed to spit out log information when certain activities occur. I want to be able to see the log information in Visual Studio. Is it possible?

I also included the same libraries in Flutter and React Native apps. In Flutter, I can see the log information from the native libraries in VSCode. In React Native, although I cannot see native library logs in VSCode, I can load the native parts of the app in Xcode and Android. When running in Xcode and Android Studio, I can still see logs. .NET MAUI or Xamarin does not seem to provide such a facility. Is it so?

Hello,

You could refer to this documentation to get the details about how to get the logs on Android and iOS.

• Android Debug Log.
• Accessing the Console.

Crash logs and the output of the Console class will be sent to the iPhone console. You can access this console with Xcode using the "Organizer" and selecting your device from the organizer.

Best Regards,
