App crashes all the time

Wasted $50

Kostenpflichtig!!

Das App als Kostenlos zu listen mit inApp Käufen ist ein Witz.
Das einzige was man ohne Abo machen kann, ist das App öffnen feststellen das der Aboscreen alles überlagert und nur verschwinden würde, wenn man ein Abo abschließt, also nichts kostenlos nutzbar!,

Works (in an involved way)

Requests need to be saved and remember their name but on second edit; you click a lot - but in the end it works. Not the most friendly app but fair enough.

Some free options now Pro

HTTPBot is a rock solid app and performs as advertised. Recently, however, I returned to the app after just a few weeks and some of the features that I was counting on for my workflow had been moved to pro features.

Basically, many of my calls were saved as custom workflows. Now you need Pro to run custom work flows, as well as export as CURL, so I have to re-create these workflows manually.

This is a core usability change has left me stuck in the water, as purchasing Pro is now a considered purchase and I have to go back and compare HTTPBot to the other paid REST apps that are out there, especially if I’m going to have to re-create all of my calls manually anyway.

This is not a complaint, just an alert for those folks that have developed workflows in the app before those features went Pro.

It's a rock solid app. And the developer deserves to get paid for it. But if you previously chose HTTP bot specifically because of the features that are now only available in the Pro version, you now have other apps to consider before you buy.
