        is this a privacy issue ?

        Indeed, even if someone need accessing the phone physically to do that.

        Other thing, if logs are never deleted, it's a matter of time before storage fulfilled, no ?

        Are logs deleted after rebooting?

          Thanks for your reply.

          No, they are not deleted.

            I've noticed overall there are a lot of logs (and the Logviewer is flooded). It might be good for debugging but how good is it for the ssd's on the phone actually?

              I think you found a serious issue here.
              You should open one on Gitlab for that.

                I'm struggling to find the proper place for that issue. Somewhere at https://gitlab.com/ubports/development I suppose. Can you help?

                  I guess it is in core components https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core?page=1

                  But can't tell wich one handle log records.

                  So, i'm quite useless here 😅

                  Did you search "journalctl" in repo ? (Edit : ok i did, no result...)

                      I put it there even though it seems to be a general problem of systemd/journald.

                      Thanks for your replies, guys.

                        @muskist Thank you for that catch, just wanted to add a small note the Logs should be cleared on reboot if devel mode is not enabled.
