Appboy 1.6.2 is polluting the logcat. I get hundreds of lines with this.

Hi Carl,

Thank you for filing this issue. These messages are standard debugging messages that are logged upon interaction with our newsfeed. They've served a useful debugging function for our customers and we're hesitant to remove them entirely.

However, we'll review them again and consider potentially updating their frequency and/or removing some of these messages in our next release. In general, these messages should only appear during interaction with the newsfeed.

In the meantime, we recommend changing your logcat's log level to info+ or filtering these messages out.

Regards,
Appboy Android team

Thanks for your reply. An option you could consider is to allow developers to enable/disable your logcat output.

+1 to making logcat configurable. See: #27

Hi All,

We've enabled configurable log levels in 1.7.3 by setting the com.appboy.support.AppboyLogger.LogLevel value.

We're happy to hear any comments or questions regarding this solution.
