What you get
See what your app sends and receives to track down network bugs.
Proxyman lets you examine the requests and responses passing between your app and a server, so you can investigate unexpected behavior rather than guess what happened. You can read HTTP/HTTPS traffic in plain text and inspect headers, query parameters, cookies, and JSON responses. For HTTPS inspection, you’ll need to install and trust the Proxyman Certificate.
You can narrow a busy traffic log to the requests you care about with filters, organize sources by app or domain, and pin domains you’re investigating. That keeps relevant exchanges within reach while you debug traffic from your Mac, iOS Simulator, or remote devices.
When you need to test a possible cause, you can repeat a request with its existing parameters or edit them and try again. Breakpoints, WebSocket debugging, and local response mapping give you more ways to investigate behavior. You can also export a session so someone else can review the captured traffic.
-
