PostHog error tracking for Android

This skill helps you add PostHog error tracking to Android applications.

Reference files

Consult the documentation for API details and framework-specific patterns.

Key principles

  • Environment variables: Always use environment variables for PostHog keys and host URLs. Never hardcode them.
  • Minimal changes: Add error tracking alongside existing error handling. Don't replace or restructure existing error handling code.
  • Autocapture first: Enable exception autocapture in the SDK initialization before adding manual captures.
  • Source maps: Upload source maps so stack traces resolve to original source code, not minified bundles.
  • Manual capture for boundaries: Use captureException() at error boundaries and catch blocks for errors that don't propagate to the global handler.

Framework guidelines

  • Adapt dependency configuration to the appropriate build.gradle(.kts) file according to the project gradle version
  • Call PostHogAndroid.setup() only once in the Application class's onCreate() method, so it's initialized as early as possible and only once.
  • Initialize PostHog in the Application class's onCreate() method
  • Ensure every activity has a android:label to accurately track screen views.
