Most recently gaining notoriety over its SecureUDID standard, mobile tech company Crashlytics has raised $5 million in its Series A funding round.
The cash came from Flybridge Capital Partners and Baseline Ventures (which also invested in Twitter, OMGPOP and Instagram).
Both were also involved in the company's $1 million seed round in 2011.
Crash test, no dummies
As its name suggests, Crashlytics' main claim to fame is its crash reporting software for mobile apps.
It says over 500 companies integrate its code - currently available in a fashionable beta - into their releases.
As for SecureUDID, that's the company's response to Apple deprecating UDIDs.
The controversy arose because it had been involved in the OpenUDID project, decided at the last minute to go down its own path, raising the hackles of OpenUDID creators.
SecureUDID has also run into issues with some commentators suggesting it doesn't provide cross-app functionality on a global level, only for apps that use its SDK.
