WOVN Debug Mode Feature

The Debug Mode feature in WOVN streamlines app development and testing by enabling App Operator Mode. This mode provides faster reporting/translation updates while ensuring user privacy when combined with the Limit reporting to only app operator setting.

Key Benefits

• Accelerated Feedback Cycle: Enables rapid reporting and re-translation during development (updates every ~10 seconds).
• Privacy Protection: Prevents end-user data transmission to WOVN when used with privacy restrictions.

Feature Overview

Enabling Debug Mode activates App Operator Mode with:

1. Frequent Updates
   Content re-translation and data reporting every 10 seconds for real-time feedback.

2. Privacy Safeguards
   Restricts data reporting exclusively to app operators in debug environments.

Activation Methods

Method 1: Programmatic Activation

Enable Debug Mode through code using the start method. Pass true to isDebugMode to enable Debug Mode. Common approaches include:

Option A: Using Build Configuration Check _isDebugAssertConfiguration()

Wovn.start(isDebugMode: _isDebugAssertConfiguration())

Example Implementation (Swift):

class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        // ...
        // Using internal configuration check
        Wovn.start(isDebugMode: _isDebugAssertConfiguration())
        // ...
    }
}

Option B: Using Standard #if DEBUG Directive

class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        // ...
        #if DEBUG
            Wovn.start(isDebugMode: true)  // Debug builds
        #else
            Wovn.start(isDebugMode: false) // Production builds
        #endif
        // ...
    }
}

Build Configuration Notes

1. _isDebugAssertConfiguration() internally checks Xcode's DEBUG flag configuration
2. #if DEBUG is the standard Swift preprocessor directive for:
   • true in debug builds (development/testing)
   • false in production releases

Both methods automatically separate environments without manual configuration.
Ensure DEBUG flag is set in your target's build settings for debug schemes.

Method 2: WOVN Settings Screen

Enable through the app interface after initial setup:

1. Navigate to Settings → your application
2. Enter your WOVN token in Validation Token
3. Toggle Debug Mode switch ON

For setup details, see WOVN Settings Integration Guide.

Verification (From v3.5.0)

Check activation status programmatically:

let debugStatus = Wovn.getDebugStatus()
// Returns human-readable status including Debug Mode state
