@chockenberry Logging is turned off on customer builds of watchOS unless you have a logging profile installed (this is why we often ask developers to install sysdiagnose—or sometimes more specific—profiles when filing feedback for watchOS).
@chockenberry @lorihc We should put it in the log(1) man page that way someone else can say that it needs to be documented somewhere.
@chockenberry Not unnecessary if you think of it as a feature request.
@chockenberry @lorihc will look into a good place to document (of if needed a reference to existing docs.)
@timtr @chockenberry @lorihc what if Console dot app, when you select a watch without the profile installed, had a “This device needs a profile to show additional log messages” banner at the top?
@lorihc @chockenberry Perhaps add the profile here or a reference to it elsewhere so developers can download it if they need this logging during development?

@GeekAndDad @chockenberry That is the list of profiles. Which one is missing?
@lorihc @chockenberry One to make oslog in apps under development by third party devs work on watchOS devices. Perhaps I misunderstood the issue under discussion; apologies if so.
@GeekAndDad @chockenberry I would expect that to work with the sysdiagnose profile. If you don’t see your oslogs when that profile is installed, it be helpful to know.
@lorihc @chockenberry Thanks!
@lorihc This needs to be documented somewhere.
I spent a fair amount of time thinking I was doing something wrong. And submitted a unnecessary FB…
