How to read crash log file for iPhone OS

Search in your "spotlight" for : symbolicatecrash
Or you can download it here

Run:

./symbolicatecrash log.crash test.app.dSYM

The output will transform the memory address to line number and file name.

This will help you a lot in debugging iPhone's Apps, especially when the crash log is from Apple App Review Team (who sucks!!).

Before symbolication, the crash log is like:
