Drill Into Problems with Xamarin Insights

You've completed the initial version of your mobile app. You've deployed it. And now, you've started to get reports of exceptions in your app. It doesn't happen all of the time, and it doesn't happen to all users, only some of them. What's worse is that the errors aren't often repeatable. For some reason, the issues some users are having can't be repeated in your office.

Perhaps the issue is the version of the OS the user is running. You're stuck and you don't know what's causing the errors.
