## What it is
OOMDetector is an iOS memory monitoring component that detects out-of-memory events, monitors large memory allocations, and detects memory leaks for Objective-C objects and malloc heap memory, dumping the responsible stack traces. It integrates via CocoaPods and includes a Python tool for translating stack logs with dSYM symbol files.

## Use cases
- detect out-of-memory crashes in my iOS app
- find which code caused an OOM by dumping stack traces
- monitor large single memory allocations in iOS
- detect memory leaks of Objective-C objects and malloc heap memory
- profile memory allocation stacks in an iOS app
- symbolicate OOM log files with dSYM files

## When to choose
- you need OOM monitoring and leak detection on iOS
- you want stack traces for large memory allocations
- you ship an Objective-C/CocoaPods-based iOS app and need memory diagnostics

## When to avoid
- you target Android or non-Apple platforms
- you need actively maintained tooling with recent updates
- you cannot accept private API usage risks (VMStackMonitor) in App Store builds
