Meet a superb Web Debugging Proxy that can act like a middleman, aka Proxyman.  ### Features - Directly Capture & Inspect HTTP/HTTPS from your iOS/iPad Devices without using MacBooks. - Decrypt and View HTTP/HTTPS Request/Response in plain text - JSON Syntax Highlighting - Exclusively designed for iPhone and iPad (Landscape and Two Columns) - Share traffic to Proxyman macOS - a native macOS app for better inspection - Pin working domains - Quick filter with URL, Header Body, and Type of Request/Response (e.g., JSON, Form, HTML, CSS, Document, etc) - Better Request/Response Previewer: Multiple columns, JSON Preview, JSON TreeView, etc - Safe Lock: Protect your sensitive data with FaceID / TouchID / Passcode - Advanced Debugging Tools: SSL Proxying, Block List, Map Local, Breakpoint, etc - Rewrite & Scripting ### Proxyman macOS Proxyman for iOS works perfectly with Proxyman for macOS (native macOS app, supports macOS 26 and M4 Chip) ### How it works Proxyman iOS creates a local VPN on your device and then forwards all traffic to a Local Man-in-The-Middle Server. As long as the VPN is active, Proxyman iOS can capture all traffic over Wi-Fi and cellular Data. ### How about my sensitive data? - Proxyman Root Certificate is a self-signed certificate that is generated on your local machine. Thus, all requests and responses are captured and stored on your devices and Proxyman does not have access to your data. - There are no remote servers involved. What’s in your devices, it’s in your devices. ************* - Support: https://proxyman.com/support - Privacy Policy: https://proxyman.com/privacy - Terms of Services: https://proxyman.com/terms-of-use

Keep your coding agents moving when you are away. FalconDeck lets you follow live work, answer questions, approve actions, review changes, and send the next instruction from your phone. Pick up the same session on your Mac whenever you are ready. FalconDeck is not affiliated with Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google. Want to see the interface first? Tap "Explore demo workspace" on the welcome screen. It opens a sample workspace with no pairing, no account, and no network. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Keep coding-agent sessions running on your own Mac within reach from your phone - Pick up live sessions from Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, or other ACP-compatible agents you already use - Get a push the moment an agent needs you — a permission request, a question, or a finished turn - Approve or decline a tool call before anything runs on your machine - Read changes as a proper file-by-file diff, not a wall of terminal output - Dictate a prompt by voice, on-device or through the transcription provider you configure - Attach a screenshot or photo to a prompt - Have long responses read aloud, including when the screen is off - Change agent, model, and reasoning effort per turn - Queue follow-ups and steer a turn while it is still running - Move between projects and threads from one sidebar, and pin, rename, or archive as you go HOW IT WORKS 1. Run FalconDeck on your Mac and open a project 2. Scan the pairing QR code with your phone 3. Your phone joins the same live session — same repository, tools, and context 4. Continue from your Mac or phone whenever you want PRIVACY Session content is end-to-end encrypted between your own devices. The relay that connects them moves sealed ciphertext and holds the keys to none of it, so your prompts, code, and agent output are unreadable to us in transit and at rest. Nothing is used for advertising or model training. If you would rather not use our relay at all, the whole thing is self-hostable. OPEN SOURCE The app, the desktop daemon, and the relay are all public and MIT licensed. Read the encryption, audit the protocol, or run your own: https://github.com/jamesblackwell/falcondeck BUILT FOR - Developers running long agent tasks who do not want to sit and watch them - Anyone who has lost twenty minutes because an agent stopped on a permission prompt two minutes in - People who care where their code goes Privacy Policy: https://falcondeck.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://falcondeck.com/terms

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FalconDeck at none against Proxyman's 5. FalconDeck also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Proxyman's advantage is chart position (#9 vs unranked) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
