![]() Map Remote: Change the request destination to different destinations.Map Local: Map a Response with a local file or local directory.Export HTTP(s) requests/responses to common files (HAR Format, Log, …).Repeat, Compose HTTP(s) requests/responses.Observe HTTP(s) requests/responses on mobile devices/simulators.Intercept and analyze the HTTP(s) network requests/responses.Features and PricingĪlmost all of the above tools offer full features to greatly facilitate debugging procedures There are a number of good options that can fill the role of a debugging proxy, including both highly-matured tools like Wireshark, Charles Proxy or Fiddler … and newly-developed tools like Debookee, or Proxyman.Įach of them has its own advantages/disadvantages so let’s take a quick look into all available options and find out which one that fits your needs. Easily Manipulating HTTP(s) Requests and Responses data with built-in tools, such as Map Local, Map Remote, Breakpoint, Scripting.Able to capture traffic from iOS physical devices (iPhone, iPad, AppleWatch, etc), iOS Simulator, Android physical devices, and Android Emulators.Sharing HTTP(s) Requests and Responses.Observing or analyzing HTTP(s) Requests and Responses.Capture and Inspect HTTP/HTTPS traffic in plain text.In general, those man-in-the-middle apps can be used by developers in many cases, including: In such situations, using suitable web debugging proxy tools could make our life much easier. As a developer, we might not need to pay much attention to this low level most of the time, but sometimes a problem might show up that needs us to drop to the level of the network and figure out what is going on. On the next post, I’ll compare some key features between Charles’s and Proxyman’s and what I think about the pros and cons of these 2 apps.Almost every application these days seem to communicate over HTTP/HTTPS protocol. Meanwhile, Proxyman is not fully-developed yet, but it seems to have many potentials. It is a powerful debugging app, but somehow it doesn’t fit me. If you are a tester or front-end developer, the odds are that you have been familiar with debugging tools like Charles. ![]() I can open my Response content to edit, which I found pretty convenient. When I click to that, the app reveals some Editing tools that I am currently using. There is a small button on the top right corner. However, to see content of a Response, you will need to Enable domain and Reload the request. If you double click a request, you would see the Request and Response on the right panel. ![]() I find it pretty useful to organize and focus, especially when I have to work with several applications, domains. I can Drag, Drop a specific domain into Pin section. This is one of interesting features of this app. I searched for app Unsplash with Command+Shift+F (You can also search the app using Search bar) It’s time to actually see HTTP requests/ responses coming from Unsplash app You can see that all my iPhone’s requests showed up after I finished configuring proxy Thus, final step is go to Setting App -> General -> About -> Certificate Trust Settings -> Turn ON “Enable full trust for root certificates” It is said that since the iOS 10.3+, we need to trust certificate manually. Then go to Setting -> General -> Profile -> Select Proxyman -> Install On my iPhone, I go to Safari -> -> Accept permission for installing Proxyman Certificate However, in order to see content of Responses, I will need to install Proxyman Certificate Then I used the same Server and Port on Guideline to configure Proxy on my iPhoneġ.4/ Allow permission to install ProxymanĪt this step, I saw all requests coming from my device on Proxyman app. Go to Setting -> Wifi -> (Select current Wifi) -> Configure Proxy -> Manual. There would be an instruction to guide you how to configure certificate on iPhone/ iOS Simulator Then go to Certificate -> Install Certificate on iPhone Device. The UI is pretty clean and I can see all the requests coming right after opening the app ![]() I downloaded the newest version from its website In this post, I used the app to see Response content from Unsplash app on my device. It is a native macOS app and its features are so handy for debugging that I really want to share with others. Last month, I’ve found a newly developed application called Proxyman.
