If you use Pidcat, there might be issues running the tool if your device is on M+. The issue has been fixed on master but hasn’t been released yet.
The readme says to fix the issue, get the latest off master:
12:46 $ brew unlink pidcat
Unlinking /usr/local/Cellar/pidcat/HEAD... 1 symlinks removed
✔ ~/Android
12:48 $ brew install --HEAD pidcat
Warning: pidcat-HEAD already installed, it's just not linked
✔ ~/Android
That didn’t quite work, so let’s link it:
12:48 $ brew link pidcat
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/pidcat/HEAD... 1 symlinks created
✔ ~/Android
I tried re-running pidcat, but it’s still not displaying anything. Which probably means we really don’t have the latest code off the repo. The --force switch has been deprecated, so to force an update we would have to call reinstall instead:
12:49 $ brew reinstall --HEAD pidcat

Or, if do not want to do all that, you can also do:
shell
$ adb logcat -v brief | pidcat my.package.name
