Watchdog is a small Swift library that monitors the main thread and logs when it is blocked longer than a configurable threshold. It supports a strict mode that pauses execution so developers can inspect which code is blocking the main thread.
Use cases
- detect main thread hangs in an iOS app
- log when the UI thread is blocked for too long
- find which code is blocking the main thread during development
- debug janky or unresponsive interfaces on iOS or macOS
- enforce main thread responsiveness thresholds in strict mode
When to choose
- you are building an iOS, tvOS, or macOS app in Swift and want lightweight main-thread hang detection during development
- you need a tiny drop-in debugging aid rather than a full profiling suite
When to avoid
- you need production-grade performance monitoring or crash reporting rather than a development-time debugger
- your project is not on the Apple/Swift platform
