About METRICLOG files
The .metriclog file format is a proprietary data log generated by Apple devices, primarily within iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS environments. It stores technical telemetry regarding wireless connections, such as Wi-Fi drops, baseband crashes, and Bluetooth handshakes. The main disadvantage of this format is its closed, proprietary nature. Average users cannot easily read the data without specialized internal parsing tools utilized by Apple engineers. Standard online converters fail to process these files because the internal byte structure is not publicly documented. Often, these files are bundled within massive 'sysdiagnose' archives and consume valuable storage space without providing any user-facing benefits. Because it is highly specific to Apple's diagnostic ecosystem, native software to view it outside of macOS is practically non-existent. However, you can still extract value from it.
Convert.Guru analyzes your METRICLOG file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert METRICLOG file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use macOS Console or similar software from the "Wireless Diagnostic Logging" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

The METRICLOG Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our METRICLOG converter.
