WhyDidItClose for macOS
Your app closed. WhyDidItClose tells you why in plain English.
WhyDidItClose is a local-first macOS utility that translates termination signals into actionable explanations so support, QA, and engineering can move from guesswork to resolution faster.
What You Get
- Cause clarity in seconds: distinguish crash, force quit, external kill, and policy/system-initiated termination paths.
- Actionable guidance: each diagnosis includes a recommended next step instead of raw signal noise.
- Shareable output: export JSON and CSV when you need to hand off evidence.
- Confidence transparency: see how sure the diagnosis is before you escalate.
Built for Real Workflows
- Support teams handling "the app just disappeared" reports.
- QA teams validating release behavior under failure pressure.
- Developers triaging flaky close events across environments.
- Mac power users who need practical answers quickly.
Why Teams Install It
Most tools expose fragments of logs. WhyDidItClose answers the user-facing question directly:
- What happened?
- Why did it happen?
- What should I do next?
Pro Unlock
Core diagnosis stays accessible. Pro unlock adds advanced workflow value:
- Export and reporting capabilities for team handoff.
- Faster analysis workflows for recurring incidents.
- Restore purchases support when reinstalling.
