Feedback-Assistent
Feedback Assistant is Apple’s macOS app for submitting bug reports, diagnostics, and feature feedback during developer and beta testing.
What is Feedback-Assistent?
Feedback Assistant is a built-in macOS utility from Apple for reporting bugs, sharing diagnostic information, and suggesting improvements during Apple developer and beta software testing. It is intended for registered Apple developers and people enrolled in Apple Beta Software Program or AppleSeed for IT programs. On Mac, the app lets you create and track feedback reports, respond to Apple’s follow-up questions, and manage drafts and submitted items in a mailbox-style interface. It can automatically gather relevant diagnostics for the issue you are reporting, which helps provide technical details such as crash data and environment information. Users typically encounter it when testing prerelease versions of macOS or other Apple platforms, or when using developer workflows that involve reporting issues with Apple software, hardware, APIs, tools, or documentation.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
This is a legitimate Apple system app included with macOS. Its access to diagnostics and system details is consistent with its purpose of helping users report bugs and test prerelease software. Because reports can include device, crash, and environment information, review what you submit if you are handling sensitive work or confidential data.
Recommendation: Keep Feedback Assistant if you use Apple beta software, developer previews, or AppleSeed programs. If you never file reports to Apple, you can simply ignore it; removing or modifying built-in system components is not recommended.
