Report

Generates comprehensive device reports combining data from multiple tools.

Overview​

Report captures a snapshot of your device's information from many different tools and combines it into a single exportable file. You choose which data sources to include, optionally add real-time metrics, and then export the result in your preferred format.

Table Of Contents​

Hero Panel​

At the top of the screen, two prominent buttons let you start:

  • Capture -- gathers data from all selected sources and prepares the file.
  • Export -- opens the export options after capture is complete.

Options​

Before capturing, you can toggle:

  • Also capture ephemeral metrics -- when enabled, the output includes real-time readings such as current CPU usage, memory pressure, and thermal state. These values reflect what the device is doing at the moment of capture and will differ each time you run it.

When this option is off, only static device information is included (model, specs, storage capacity, and so on) that does not change between captures.

Sources Checklist​

Below the options, a checklist lets you choose which categories of data to include. By default, CPU, Memory, Storage, Battery, Thermals are selected (and GPS, Barometer, Sensors are also selected on iPhone/iPad). Device Info, Microphone, and NFC are off by default — tap them to include them:

  • Device Info -- model, name, OS version, and general hardware details.
  • CPU -- processor specifications and (if ephemeral metrics are enabled) current usage.
  • Memory -- RAM capacity and usage.
  • Storage -- disk capacity, available space, and storage details.
  • Battery -- battery level, charging state, and battery specs.
  • Thermals -- current thermal state.
  • GPS -- location-related information (if available).
  • Barometer -- atmospheric pressure and altitude readings (if available).
  • Sensors -- accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and proximity sensor data.
  • Microphone -- microphone availability and specifications.
  • NFC -- NFC capability and status.

Capture Progress​

After you tap Capture, the screen shows:

  • A progress bar that fills as each source is collected.
  • The current step being captured (for example, "Capturing Battery...").
  • A step count showing how many sources have been completed out of the total.
  • A Cancel button to stop the capture if needed.

Capture typically takes a few seconds, depending on how many sources are selected and whether ephemeral metrics are included.

Export​

Once capture is complete, tap Export to save or share your data:

  • Format selection -- choose the file format.
  • File name -- you can customize the file name.
  • Share dialog -- the standard share sheet appears so you can save the file, send it via email or messaging, AirDrop it, or copy it to another app.

Notes And Limitations​

  • Some data sources may not be available on every device or platform. Unavailable sources are skipped during capture.
  • Ephemeral metrics represent a single point in time and will vary between captures.
  • GPS data requires location permission. If permission has not been granted, GPS information will be omitted.
  • The file size depends on how many sources are selected.
