Once a recording has been uploaded, watching it back doesn't require any setup beyond signing in to the dashboard.
Opening a replay#
Select an organization, then a client app, and its recordings appear in a list — newest first. Each row shows the platform, app version, duration, size, and any
hadError/label tags (see Tags). Click Watch replay
to open the viewer in a new tab.
Reading the timeline#
The viewer has a scrub bar and an event list beneath the replayed screen:
- Colored tick marks on the scrub bar mark notable moments — errors (most prominent), pointer input, environment changes (lifecycle, metrics, focus), and your own custom events, each in a distinct color.
- Clicking a row in the event list seeks the replay to that exact moment.
-
Errors are the tallest, most prominent marks — if a session
hadError, this is the fastest way to find where it happened.
Images in a replay#
Two kinds of images can appear:
-
Assets from your app's bundle (
Image.asset) resolve automatically if you've run the asset upload script for this client app — otherwise they show as placeholders. -
Explicitly captured real images (anything your app wrapped in
CaptureRealImages) are embedded directly in the recording and always render, no separate upload needed.
What you won't see#
The recording never captures typed text content (only that a field gained/lost focus, and its widget type), nor the literal glyphs a paragraph laid out (only each line's bounding box, drawn as a placeholder bar). This is a deliberate no-PII policy in the recorder itself, not a viewer limitation.
