How Portland Engineers Reduce Mobile App ANRs and Crashes?
Alex Morgan didn’t need another crash report to know something was wrong. Crash-free session rates still looked acceptable on paper. Automated tests were green. QA sign-off came without resistance. Yet real users were telling a different story—one that didn’t fit neatly into dashboards.
