How Panic Scan works

iOS does not let apps read system logs, so you open the panic-full log and bring it into Panic Scan in one of the ways below.

Find the panic-full log on the faulty phone

  1. Open Settings, then Privacy & Security.
  2. Scroll down to Analytics & Improvements, then Analytics Data.
  3. Find files starting with panic-full; the newest one first.
  4. No file means the phone has not logged a crash restart recently.

Bring the log into Panic Scan

  1. Camera: open Panic Scan on another phone, point it at the log and move slowly from the panic(cpu ...) line.
  2. Share: in the panic-full file tap Share, then Panic Scan.
  3. Screenshots: capture the log, then pick the images under Screenshots.
  4. .ips file: send it with AirDrop or Files, then open it with Panic Scan.

Read the result

  1. The main verdict names the suspected part and the confidence.
  2. Repair steps list the checks in the order to try them.
  3. The log excerpt is the evidence you can check yourself.
  4. After repairing, tap Record the real part so the app gets better next time.

Tips

  • A panic exactly every 3 minutes almost always means a sensor or flex cable.
  • Analyze several logs together: the part that shows up most is usually the cause.
  • Software panic: restore iOS before touching the hardware.
  • Always test with a known-good part before blaming the logic board.
