Its also free without ads popping everywhere. Definitely not as good as working on a computer. That said, thank you for creating and looking forward to many more updates. Definitely useful. ### 2/5 — No cookies , no authentication available *2020-08-23, version 7.4* You can’t authenticate for webpages and well you can’t import cookies for that matter ### 4/5 — Very good but laggy ... *2020-04-06, version 7.4* As the title says ... great effort btw, very useful in my ipad pro ! ### 3/5 — User Agent Switcher *2018-12-21, version 7.4* There aren’t many apps like this that can switch the UA String. This one does, but only to strings of known UA’s from a list. It doesn’t let you paste in a custom string, which is really what I needed. ### 4/5 — Eh.... *2017-10-11, version 7.2* I don't know how to Actually deputy the things, Don't reply and say "Everything is on the website" Just tell me what to press! -.- ### 1/5 — I couldn't figure out *2017-06-02, version 7.1* Couldn't get the debug console to show uninstalled ### 3/5 — Split screen for iPad Pro *2016-08-27, version 6.1* It would be great to split screen this with my code editor. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your time *2016-05-05, version 6.1* App looks like it hasn't been updated since 2008, and it doesn't do anything except load the developer's website. ### 2/5 — Won't load secured websites *2016-03-20, version 6.1* I can't get any site that requires a login to display it. It looks like it's got potential, but with no updates in the last year or so, I wouldn't bother keeping(downloading). **Developer response:** I have a a rough time of the pass two years, but now I have time to update the App, MIHTool 7 brings many new updates, it brings a Chrome like Devtools to the iOS Safari. I believe you gonna love it. Please go https://mihtool.com to learn more. ### 1/5 — Does not work as advertised *2016-02-03, version 6.1* I was trying to "inspect an element" on a website and it did not work. Was not easy to use and the UI looks like iOS 4... Get with the times man... ### 1/5 — Does not capture JS *2015-12-12, version 6.1* On pages that are clearly running JavaScript you cannot even see it, let alone edit it. Glad I didn't jump right in to buying the pro. ### 4/5 — Noob *2014-04-18, version 5.9* I am impressed with the professional design and ease of use. The first app that did what it claimed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Mad *2021-11-04, version 7.4* Every single time I try to activate it it only shows the 3 buttons and that’s it ### 1/5 — Broken? *2021-04-04, version 7.4* I wanted so much for this to work as it’s deplorable Apple requires you to buy a Mac just to debug a web page. Sharing the page with MIHTool brings up three small icons but the rendering area for the inspector is blank and does not get drawn. There is mention of “ MIHTool Remote control(With HTTP Server). “ in case of trouble but it is not clear what/where this is or how to activate it. ### 1/5 — Dosnt work at all *2021-03-27, version 7.4* This app dosnt work it's just a web browser you can't edit or inspect on websites 😡 ### 1/5 — Very buggy *2020-03-25, version 7.4* Most of the time it ends up with a white screen instead of the webpage it was just loading overall not good ### 1/5 — Couldn’t download *2018-10-19, version 7.4* The app just takes you back to the App Store. It didn’t let me install the program. ### 1/5 — The App is Broken *2017-12-21, version 7.2* Unlike a lot of the negative reviews, I know the purpose of this app and how to use it. I have a small marketing company and do a bit of WordPress web design with it. I rely heavily on a web inspector on my iMac and since I picked up my iPad Pro for remote work, I’ve missed it very much. I tried this app and it’s just bad on the new hardware. I watched the videos on the site and even the app itself doesn’t function like those videos - let alone the overlay in safari. I imagine a lot of hard work went into it but development needs to continue for it to be useful. In the meantime, I discovered that you can use firebug lite as a bookmark to create an inspector. It’s a little buggy but usable. Google “Firebug iOS” and you’ll find it if interested. **Developer response:** Thanks, MIHTool does includes firebug bookmark. If you have trouble with remote inspector, you can switch to your local weinre server with MIHTool remote HTTP server. More features please see https://www.mihtool.com ### 1/5 — Fake *2017-08-25, version 7.2* Install and open the app, it takes you to a page asking you to install the app. **Developer response:** There is a full docs and videos on the website https://mihtool.com/, if you have problem please file a issue, thanks. ### 1/5 — Couldn't get it to work. *2017-06-28, version 7.1* I tried everything to inspect an element in the browser. I don't think this works. I went to the website but I couldn't find any clear documentation or tutorials to actually use this on my iPhone. **Developer response:** There is a full docs and videos on the website https://mihtool.com/, if you have problem please file a issue, thanks. ### 1/5 — Just a crappy browser w no features *2017-06-18, version 7.1* No point ### 1/5 — Can't get it to work *2017-06-12, version 7.1* I spent a lot of time trying to find instructions on the site for how to use this. I can't figure it out. Nothing seems to work properly. I would love an app like this. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — If it helps me hack games and give me infinite currencies, It’s good by me *2020-10-25, version 7.4* This is the app that I use to hack games like, cookie clicker Adventure Idle Clicker hero’s? Pretty much every browser idle game also useful for coding games made by you! The Creator totally recommend ignore the one starts they don’t know about how much this app has to offer! ### 5/5 — Easy ‘view source’ for iOS *2019-12-23, version 7.4* It is disturbingly hard to view a web page source on iOS, but this app is incredibly easy to use and does exactly what I need it to do. I’m very pleased with it. It works exactly as described, and no, it’s not a newbie tool, but the dev is very clear up front that it isn’t so that shouldn’t be surprising to anyone. ### 5/5 — Although UI and functionality needs some improvement but it definitely works! *2019-11-02, version 7.4* DevTools in browser is a must for any programmer! ### 5/5 — Works as described, thank you! *2019-10-03, version 7.4* Leaving a 5-star rating as other reviewers clearly seem confused about either the purpose of this web inspector tool, or what are reasonable expectations towards a free developer tool. This has helped me inspect css styling and Dom hierarchies directly on an iPad; very useful when you’re not near a traditional computer. ### 5/5 — Best app! *2016-09-17, version 6.1* This is a very needy app. It is a must! I use it almost everyday. Thanks to the developer! ### 5/5 — great real time debugging *2015-06-24, version 6.1* like an F12 but displayed in your PC browser ### 5/5 — 支持 *2014-05-13, version 5.9* 一看就知道好东西，支持！ ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-02-06, version 5.8* This app is essential, if you build mobile webapps. It lets you see exactly what's happening, right in your web browser. Excellent job. ### 5/5 — Exceptional *2013-08-13, version 5.6* Well thought out and implemented. It will definitely improve my web building skills. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2013-06-25, version 5.4* Simple and easy to use --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
