Reposted from your duplicate of this posting, though this thread has more details:


These are device logs. Statistics, crashes, that sort of detail. The Apple Developer information has generic info of interest to app developers contending with their own app device logs and crash logs, but the contents of these logs tend to be app-specific, and quite often undocumented. Overview:

I’d suggest starting with securing your iPhone and Apple ID, if this question is a continuation of the themes of some of your previous question here; around your statements of the potential for iPhone security compromises, and call-monitoring with your iPhone. This as rummaging device and crash and performance logs seeking evidence of possible compromises is unlikely to be effective, where improving end-user iPhone and iPad and Apple ID security is a more direct path. Finding any needles in ever-larger haystacks is not easy. This security would include backing up, wiping, reinstalling apps as malware persistence over a reload is quite rare), as well as better device physical security (keeping your devices close, and preventing untrusted others from accessing them), as would be changing passwords on critical accounts, enabling two-factor authentication and related steps.

Yes, those are diagnostic logs. If you contact Apple with a problem they can ask you to send them the logs for analysis. When you sync the phone to your computer they are copied to it if you have enabled sending diagnostics to Apple in iTunes. There is no personally identifiable information in them.
