what is the best Way to save the Debug Log in File, if the user it switch on (i will it enabel/disable with a switch)?
my idea is to call a sub instead of Log(...)
B4X: 
Sub WriteLogToFile(txt As String)
    Log(txt)
    Dim txtWriter As TextWriter
    txtWriter.Initialize(File.OpenOutput(File.DirData("MyApp"),"Logfile.txt",True))
    txtWriter.WriteLine(txt)
    txtWriter.Close
End Sub

Is this the best way or is there a better way?

If NOT(production) then

' when developing - dont enable it. This way your logs tab will show everything in debug and release...
(where production is a global public boolean var)
