# LeakCanary 🐤 LeakCanary is a memory leak detection library for Android.

LeakCanary's knowledge of the internals of the Android Framework gives it a unique ability to narrow down the cause of each leak, helping developers dramatically reduce `Application Not Responding` freezes and `OutOfMemoryError` crashes.
