What happens when a app crashes and you send a report to apple?

What happens when a app crashes and you send a report to apple? when a app crashes you get a popup saying "(app name) quit unexpectedly" and below it it says "This report will be sent to apple automatically." and I don't know where it sends to apple and if the app is by a 3rd party developer than how can the 3rd party developer know about the problem if it sent to apple? by the way, this is happening on a mid 2014 Macbook Pro 15" Running MacOS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

It goes to Apple engineers or product team... you can expect no reply.


You can file a bug report directly—using this same link:

submit your Apple Feedback Product Feedback - Apple




Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support

Are these rhetorical questions or you want help with the issue at hand...?
