Measure the Performance of your Android App with Sentry
summary
Sentry Android SDK captures app start times, frozen/slow frames, OkHTTP calls, SQLite/Room queries and Activity/Fragment render times automatically and links them to backend work via distributed tracing by propagating trace headers. Transactions break into spans (file I/O, DB, HTTP) so suspect spans surface the slowest calls; alerts can notify on P95 regressions. SDK offers automatic instrumentation for common libs and an experimental profiling (alpha) flame‑graph feature that runs in production to pinpoint costly CPU stacks.
