Configure User Feedback
Learn about general User Feedback configuration fields.
The User Feedback Widget offers many customization options, and if the available options are insufficient, you can use your own UI.
The following options can be configured for the integration in SentryUserFeedbackConfiguration
:
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
animations | Bool | true | Whether or not to show animations, like for presenting and dismissing the form. |
useShakeGesture | Bool | false | Use a shake gesture to display the form. |
showFormForScreenshots | Bool | false | Any time a user takes a screenshot, bring up the form with the screenshot attached. |
tags | [String: Any] | nil | Tags to set on the feedback event. This is a dictionary where keys are strings and values can be different data types such as NSNumber , NSString , etc. |
Some hooks are available so you can react to the user opening and closing the form, when the user successfully submits the form or when there is an error:
Hook | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
onFormOpen | () -> Void | Called when the feedback form is opened. |
onFormClose | () -> Void | Called when the feedback form is closed. |
onSubmitSuccess | ([String: Any]) -> Void | Called when feedback is successfully submitted via the prepared form. |
onSubmitError | (Error) -> Void | Called when there is an error submitting feedback via the prepared form. |
onSubmitSuccess
provides a dictionary with the following keys:
message
: The message the user entered in the feedback form.name
: The name the user entered in the feedback form.email
: The email the user entered in the feedback form.attachments
: An array of attachments to be included with the feedback; currently only one screenshot is supported.
Example:
SentrySDK.start { options in
options.showFormForScreenshots = true
options.configureUserFeedback { config in
config.onSubmitSuccess = { data in
print("Feedback submitted successfully from \(data["name"]) at \(data["email"]): \(data["message"])")
}
}
}
The following options can be configured for the integration in SentryUserFeedbackWidgetConfiguration
:
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
location | [NSDirectionalRectEdge] | [.bottom, .trailing] | The location of the widget on the screen. |
autoInject | Bool | true | Injects the Feedback widget into the application when the integration is added. Set autoInject: false if you want to call feedback.attachTo() or feedback.openDialog() directly, or only want to show the widget on certain views. |
windowLevel | UIWindow.Level | UIWindow.Level.normal + 1 | The window level of the widget. |
showIcon | Bool | true | Whether to show the widget icon. |
labelText | String? | "Report a Bug" | The text of the widget label. If nil , then only the icon is shown. It is an error to set both labelText to nil and showIcon to false . |
layoutUIOffset | UIOffset | UIOffset.zero | The offset of the widget from edge(s) of the screen specified in location . |

config.configureForm { form in

form.useSentryUser = false
}
}
}
Colors can be customized via the top-level config object, configuring for both light and dark themes.
Option | Light | Dark | Description |
---|---|---|---|
background | rgb(255, 255, 255) | rgb(41, 35, 47) | Background color of the widget and form. |
foreground | rgb(43, 34, 51) | rgb(235, 230, 239) | Foreground text color of the widget and form. |
submitForeground | rgb(255, 255, 255) | rgb(255, 255, 255) | Foreground color for the form submit button. |
submitBackground | rgb(88, 74, 192) | rgb(88, 74, 192) | Background color for the form submit button. |
buttonForeground | Same as foreground | Same as foreground | Foreground color for the cancel and screenshot buttons. |
buttonBackground | UIColor.clear | UIColor.clear | Background color for the form cancel and screenshot buttons. |
errorColor | rgb(223, 51, 56) | rgb(245, 84, 89) | Color used for error-related components. |
inputBackground | UIColor. secondarySystemBackground | UIColor. secondarySystemBackground | Background color for form inputs. |
inputForeground | UIColor.darkText | UIColor.lightText | Foreground color for form inputs. |
Form element outlines can be configured via the outlineStyle
property. By default, the color is rgb(204, 204, 204)
, the width is 0.5
, and the corner radius is 5.0
.
Fonts can be directly customized, but by default they will scale with the user's preferred text size using predefined font styles:
Option | Default Text Style | Description |
---|---|---|
font | "UIFontTextStyleCallout" | The font family to use for form input elements and the widget button label. |
headerFont | "UIFontTextStyleTitle1" | The font family to use for the main header title of the feedback form. |
titleFont | "UIFontTextStyleHeadline" | The font family to use for titles of text fields and buttons in the form. |
You can still configure the fontFamily
setting and we will request an appropriately scaled font from the system.
Here is an example of customizing only the background color for the light theme using the Feedback constructor configuration:
SentrySDK.start { options in
options.configureUserFeedback { config in
// configureTheme is used for light themes on iOS versions that support dark mode, and as the sole theme configuration for earlier iOS versions that don't support dark mode
config.theme { theme in
theme.background = .init(color: .yellow)
}
config.darkTheme { theme in
theme.background = .init(color: .darkGray)
}
}
}
The Feedback widget is designed to be accessible, with a set of default accessibility labels that can be overriden. The following attributes are set to ensure the widget is accessible:
Configuration Key | Default Value |
---|---|
widgetAccessibilityLabel | labelText or, if that is nil , "Report a Bug" |
Configuration Key | Default Value |
---|---|
messageTextViewAccessibilityLabel | messagePlaceholder |
removeScreenshotButtonAccessibilityLabel | removeScreenshotButtonLabel |
nameTextFieldAccessibilityLabel | namePlaceholder |
emailTextFieldAccessibilityLabel | "Your email address" |
submitButtonAccessibilityLabel | submitButtonLabel |
cancelButtonAccessibilityLabel | cancelButtonLabel |
Example:
SentrySDK.start { options in
options.configureUserFeedback { config in
config.configureWidget { widget in
widget.widgetAccessibilityLabel = "Report an Issue" // default: "Report a Bug"
}
config.configureForm { form in
form.messageTextViewAccessibilityLabel = "What happened?" // default: "What's the bug? What did you expect?"
}
}
}
You can also use your own UI components to gather feedback and pass the feedback data object to the SentrySDK.capture(feedback: SentryFeedback)
function.
SentrySDK.capture(feedback: .init(
message: "This is an example feedback", // required
name: "Jane Doe", // optional
email: "email@example.org", // optional
source: .custom,
screenshot: somePngImageData // optional
));
