What is All Quiet?
All Quiet moves from enterprise integrations to the on-call engineer's own day.
All Quiet is an incident management and on-call tool. Three releases on 28 September rebuilt the on-call calendar with effective and detailed views and overrides from any cell, added recurring snooze windows per integration plus detection of incidents that resolve themselves quickly, and introduced a personal on-call dashboard with shift summaries and noise metrics. Before that, August and early September added scoped API keys, Salesforce and Jira two-way sync and webhook rate-limit alerts.
What is Bugsnag?
Bugsnag names GraphQL operations and lets iOS teams attach context to app hangs.
September's release is narrow and practical. The iOS SDK's new appHangCallback adds diagnostic context the moment a hang is detected, aimed at SwiftUI hangs where the stack trace alone doesn't show the cause, and GraphQL requests now appear by operation in Network performance views rather than under a single POST /graphql. It follows source-side discard enforcement in August and the Correlated Events work earlier in the year.

All Quiet moves from enterprise integrations to the on-call engineer's own day.
◆ Current state
All Quiet is an incident management and on-call tool. Three releases on 28 September rebuilt the on-call calendar with effective and detailed views and overrides from any cell, added recurring snooze windows per integration plus detection of incidents that resolve themselves quickly, and introduced a personal on-call dashboard with shift summaries and noise metrics. Before that, August and early September added scoped API keys, Salesforce and Jira two-way sync and webhook rate-limit alerts.
◆ Where it's heading
The summer work targeted buyers: access control and integrations that larger organisations require. The September work targets responders: less noise, clearer schedules and a view of one's own shifts. Noise detection for auto-resolving incidents is the most consequential piece, since it turns alert fatigue into a metric teams can act on.
◆ Prediction
Expect noise metrics to feed into suppression or routing rules, since detection without action is the obvious next gap. The feed has no entries after 28 September.
Bugsnag
2.5INFRA · APIS
Bugsnag names GraphQL operations and lets iOS teams attach context to app hangs.
◆ Current state
September's release is narrow and practical. The iOS SDK's new appHangCallback adds diagnostic context the moment a hang is detected, aimed at SwiftUI hangs where the stack trace alone doesn't show the cause, and GraphQL requests now appear by operation in Network performance views rather than under a single POST /graphql. It follows source-side discard enforcement in August and the Correlated Events work earlier in the year.
◆ Where it's heading
Bugsnag is moving from single-service error tracking toward cross-service observability: Correlated Events, trace correlation, and the MCP server all point at workflows where an error in one service is causally linked to events in others. The Flutter SDK parity work (CPU, memory, rendering metrics) reflects a deliberate effort to close the feature gap between mobile and web monitoring. SDK Source-Side Discard Enforcement (remote rule push to SDK) reduces bandwidth and processing overhead at scale — a signal that larger enterprise deployments are a growth priority.
◆ Prediction
Correlated Events will likely expand to support more correlation dimensions — custom attributes, error clusters — and the MCP server toolset will grow to include mutation tools (creating alerts, snoozing errors) rather than just read-only access. The Performance Score metric will gain more visibility and dashboard integrations.
