Once again, I have to remind you that debugging is the proper approach for figuring out what’s going on in your app at runtime. However, having information being output to Logcat is absolutely useful and will help with general diagnostics, even when your app is deployed to users.
Toast messages? They’re to inform users of something quickly, but can be handy for displaying a message for yourself when developing. Just make sure you don’t leave your testing Toasts in your production app!
If you want more info on each of these topics, the official documentation has articles on each one:
