Is OpenTelemetry the foundation for mobile observability? Not really. 🔍

OTel standardizes backend telemetry, but mobile has different constraints. Instead of streaming telemetry constantly, bitdrift stores it on-device and retrieves what you need, when you need it.

The workflow: Users in a region report slow checkouts → query affected sessions → enable tracing for that cohort → correlate with backend. No app release required. ⚡
