Performance

This MQTT Client is optimized to handle thousands of topics and at hundreds of thousands messages per minute.

Custom subscriptions can limit the amount of messages MQTT Explorer needs to process, subscriptions can be managed in the advanced connection settings.
In very large productive environments brokers may handle an extreme load of topics, subscribing with a wildcard topic is in this scenario not advised.

Telemetry

No personal data is processed, sent or stored.

The app sends telemetry and error reports, this enables me to quickly react on bugs/errors and understand what’s going on. Responding quickly to errors is one key element in producing a reliable software product.

It basically sends: app version, processor architecture, operating system, used memory, user interactions and error stacks.

Even though the data is purely technical, an option to disable telemetry is planned. #52
