## What it is
QuincyKit is an Objective-C crash reporting SDK for iOS and Mac apps that sends crash reports to a self-hosted PHP/MySQL backend with an admin interface for grouping and symbolication. It is deprecated following HockeyApp's retirement, with Microsoft App Center recommended as the replacement.

## Use cases
- collect crash reports from iOS apps
- let users choose whether to send crash data
- self-host a crash reporting server with PHP and MySQL
- automatically group and symbolicate crash logs
- give users feedback when a crash fix is available

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy iOS app already integrated with QuincyKit
- studying historical crash reporting SDK implementations
- needing a fully self-hosted crash reporting pipeline on old PHP/MySQL stacks

## When to avoid
- starting a new iOS or macOS project
- wanting a maintained crash reporting solution
- targeting modern Apple platforms like tvOS or visionOS
- avoiding deprecated SDKs that may break with new Xcode releases

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: monitoring, sdk
- domain: mobile-development, developer-tools
- platform: php, self-hosted
- tags: crash-reporting, objective-c, deprecated, hockeyapp, apple, ios, macos
