ntfy server

If you host your own ntfy server, and you're having issues with any component, it is always helpful to enable debugging/tracing in the server. You can find detailed instructions in the Logging & Debugging section, but it ultimately boils down to setting log-level: debug or log-level: trace in the server.yml file:

=== "server.yml (debug)" yaml log-level: debug

=== "server.yml (trace)" yaml log-level: trace

If you're using environment variables, set NTFY_LOG_LEVEL=debug (or trace) instead. You can also pass --debug or --trace to the ntfy serve command, e.g. ntfy serve --trace. If you're using systemd (i.e. systemctl) to run ntfy, you can look at the logs using journalctl -u ntfy -f. The logs will look something like this:

Android app

On Android, you can turn on logging in the settings under Settings → Record logs. This will store up to 1,000 log entries, which you can then copy or upload.

Recording logs on Android

When you copy or upload the logs, you can censor them to make it easier to share them with others. ntfy will replace all topics and hostnames with fruits. Here's an example:

This is a log of the ntfy Android app. The log shows up to 1,000 entries.
Server URLs (aside from ntfy.sh) and topics have been replaced with fruits 🍌🥝🍋🥥🥑🍊🍎🍑.

To get live logs, or to get more advanced access to an Android phone, you can use adb. After you install and enable adb debugging, you can get detailed logs like so:

# Connect to phone (enable Wireless debugging first)
adb connect 192.168.1.137:39539

# Print all logs; you may have to pass the -s option
adb logcat
adb -s 192.168.1.137:39539 logcat

# Only list ntfy logs
adb logcat --pid=$(adb shell pidof -s io.heckel.ntfy)
adb -s 192.168.1.137:39539 logcat --pid=$(adb -s 192.168.1.137:39539 shell pidof -s io.heckel.ntfy)

Web app

The web app logs everything to the developer console, which you can open by pressing the F12 key on your keyboard.

iOS app

Sorry, there is no way to debug or get the logs from the iOS app (yet), outside of running the app in Xcode.
