I have noticed that some exceptions, like NSGenericException or NSManagedObject Exceptions do not contain a lot of details in output when app crashes on iOS 11. But in the same time if I run and make it crashed on iOS 9 or 10, it will contain a lot of useful details.
For example. Same app, same crash, on iOS 11:
libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException (lldb)
On iOS 9-10:
2018-01-02 23:51:22.967 CafeManager[3726:130232] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSGenericException', reason: 'Your application has presented a UIAlertController (<UIAlertController: 0x7f959a7634c0>) of style UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet.

As you can see, it really makes the difference. What have I missed? Any debugger settings or is it iOS 11-related issue?
Issue was resolved by enabling OS_ACTIVITY_MODE variable. I believe I disabled it in XCode 8 to prevent unwanted output.
Select from Xcode menu Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme.. Select the Run scheme and look under Arguments. If you see the OS_ACTIVITY_MODE variable checked, deselect it.
