Logging Improvements
- Power up your log searching capabilities with filtering by log level, tags, regular expressions. This helps you find offending log lines faster than ever. Works for both Android and Real-Time products.

Memfault now supports serving firmware update payloads for Android devices using our Bort SDK. These payloads can be large, coming in between 1-3GB.
Because of this, serving these files out AWS S3 directly was too slow. So we now have support for serving these files through a global CDN!
In our tests, devices can see 50MB/s download speeds from the CDN, so your customers should experience quick firmware updates.
For more information, check out our Android OTA documentation.
Memfault captures Heartbeat metrics from devices. These metrics can then be viewed on a per-device basis. Customers have been asking for the ability to perform aggregates on these metrics over a Fleet of devices.
We are happy to say this feature is now available! Once a metric chart is created, you can aggregate over the devices within a Cohort or across a software version.
Many firmware projects have complex firmware upgrade paths. This might be to enable binary differential updates to save bandwidth or maybe to allow for a project to remove backwards-incompatible code.
For example, when upgrading a firmware from a 1.x to a 2.x release, the device might need to go through a migration firmware as shown below.
Memfault will now show an overview of why devices in your Fleet are rebooting. If a project implements the Reboot Reason Tracking module, Memfault will show this information in the main dashboard.
This functionality is coming soon for Android.
The default landing page is now a Project Dashboard! Here, you'll find information such as:
These dashboards are filterable by Cohort. This gives you the ability to filter the data to only internal or external devices, or to a particular customer.
Memfault Changelog for April
The changelog is now separated into 3 sections: Embedded, Android, and General.
You can now filter by multiple Issue reasons at once. The filtering will persist in the browser's localStorage and will propagate to the URL so that you can send links to your co-workers of your favorite queries.
We have added a zoom feature for the Device Metrics, as well as the ability to normalize the Y-axis units. This is useful for digging into a particular moment in time and comparing similar metrics.
