No FunFactsActivity log entry?

I followed the steps shown, saved, ran the app and even clicked through a few Fun Facts. When I search the log as shown, there is no entry matching FunFactsActivity. Any ideas?

In the Devices | logcat tab did you check and make sure your device/emulator was selected? Without the funfactactivity filter on are you seeing any other log messages that look like they're coming from your device/emulator? What Log level is your filter set to?

Thanks Andrew, those are good suggestions. I definitely got other log messages from the FunFactsActivity. I couldn't seem to find anything wrong, so I restarted Android Studio and cleaned the project. The problem resolved itself. I don't know what the issue actually was.

I had the same issue as Nisha, and I had checked to make sure I had the emulator selected like Andrew suggested. So I tried restarting android studio and cleaning the app since it worked for Nisha, and boom, it was right there.
