App crashes constantly but no crash log!

I have a certain app that keeps crashing recently. I reached out to the support team behind the app and was asked to send the crash log to try and figure out the issue.

Here's the weird part: I couldn't find any crash log related to the app in question! I even synced my iPhone twice just to make sure that the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice would have the updated logs but I couldn't find any crash log related to this app!

Thoughts? Thanks!

Sometimes, if an app runs the system very rapidly out of memory, an application will crash without leaving a crash log. That could be what's happening here. Only the developers would be able to sort this out, if that in fact is what's happening.

Thanks for the reply wjosten.

I had notified the devs but haven't heard from them yet. I will post back here an update just in case anyone else stumbles upon this post and is curious.
