Access the Obsidian console on iOS app

I need to know how to access the Obsidian console on iOS app. Thank you.

My plugin doesn’t work on my IPhone, so I need the console to debug.

You cannot, as far as I understand it. It is a limitation of iOS’s browser capabilities.

One workaround for this is to log errors to a file in the plugin data folder—you can then check this file manually.

Does this help?

How do I install this?

You might be able to do it via Xcode, that is how you debug websites and applications when working on software on iOS/iPadOS. Surprisingly I can’t find any actual Apple docs on it but there’s a menu in Xcode that lets you inspect any web view. You may have to turn developer mode on on your device and plug it into your computer with a cable (at least initially, for the pairing). Needless to say, this requires a Mac.

My plugin Plugin: Advanced Debug Mode has built-in DevTools with console support.
