At this moment though, if we log into the portal and try to look at our crash reports, App Center isn't able to show them to us. Those crash reports do not contain meaningful information. In other words, they don't map back to our original source code names. We need to create a debug symbols file, zip it up, and then send it to App Center. App Center will then use the information in the debug symbols file to basically decode the crash report and give us a nice, meaningful view of the data inside. To do this, we need to adjust the build options inside Xcode so it generates a debug symbols file on every build. One thing to keep in mind is that these debug symbols files are linked to the output of a build so it's kind of a one-to-one relationship. If you release a new version of your app and you…
