Way to get a logcat from app crash like ACRA does

I am a new user of Sentry on Android. I have integrated your SDk into my app and can get logs from throwables by means of

Sentry.capture(throwable);

Is there a way to get all app crashes without a capturing of throwable like ACRA do that being initialized in Application class and catching crashes in all code without specifying the place to catch?

The SDK hooks to Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler. Do you have a repro where you throw without any catch blocks to see if it gets captured so we can take a look?

 */
public static SentryUncaughtExceptionHandler setup() {
    logger.debug("Configuring uncaught exception handler.");


    Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler currentHandler = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler();
    if (currentHandler != null) {
        logger.debug("default UncaughtExceptionHandler class='" + currentHandler.getClass().getName() + "'");
    }


    SentryUncaughtExceptionHandler handler = new SentryUncaughtExceptionHandler(currentHandler);
    Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(handler);
    return handler;
}


/**
 * Disable this instance and attempt to remove it as the default {@link Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler}.
 */
public void disable() {
    enabled = false;


    // It's possible that another uncaught exception handler was installed 'over' us.

Sorry, it seems all is OK with initialization

Sentry.init(“dsn”, new AndroidSentryClientFactory(getApplicationContext()));

in onCreate method of Application class.
