Where can I print out logs to see immediately in Android Studio?

Question

I'm using Android studio and want to print out errors and warnings to somewhere like console for debugging. How can I do this? I know Logcat, but there is always full of logs and I cannot find mine.

Try filtering your log. See this answer [How to filter logcat in Android Studio?] [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19931987/how-to-filter-logcat-in-android-studio — Emil, Jun 24 '15 at 06:25

Use error log to print your stacktrace. Error log has less messages and you can easily find out your message. If you are using try/catch block:

try
{
    //your code
}
catch(Exception e)
{    
Log.e("error tag", Log.getStackTraceString(e));
}

Logcat is the way to go. It is possible to filter logcat based on just the output coming from your application, or just a specific tag to make it easier to see the output you want.
