About

PrismKit

Features
Read full description

PrismKit is a developer's Swiss Army knife: a collection of fast tools that run entirely on your iPhone and iPad — offline, with nothing ever sent to a server. Paste a production token, a private config, or any sensitive data with confidence. Everything is processed locally on your device. TOOLS INCLUDED • JSON ↔ YAML — Convert between both formats in either direction. • JSON ↔ TOON — Convert to and from TOON, the compact format that saves tokens when working with AI models. • JSON Format — Format, validate, and minify with error detection. • Base64 — Encode and decode text. • URL Encode — Encode and decode URL strings. • JWT Decoder — Inspect the header and payload, see the expiry, and verify the HMAC signature (HS256, HS384, and HS512). • Hash — Generate SHA-256, SHA-512, and MD5. • QR Code — Generate and customize QR codes with colors, a logo, and PNG export. • UUID — Generate unique identifiers in batches. • Regex Tester — Test regular expressions and see matches and their groups. • Diff — Compare two versions of text line by line and spot the differences. BUILT TO BE FAST • Command palette (⌘K) to jump to any tool in seconds. • Mark your favorite tools to keep them within reach. • Copy any result with a tap. • Optimized for iPhone and iPad, with a two-column layout on larger screens. • Light, dark, and automatic themes. PRIVACY FIRST • 100% offline: no tool needs an internet connection. • No accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. • We collect absolutely no data. Made by developers, for developers.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PrismKit at none against Developer Tools's 1. Developer Tools's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
