Pry JSON Viewer

Here's the iOS version: Pry โ€” Native JSON Viewer for iPhone & iPad Pry is a fast, lightweight JSON viewer built natively for iOS. No web views, no compromises โ€” just a native binary that launches instantly and handles your JSON with zero overhead. Paste and Explore Paste any JSON from your clipboard and immediately see it rendered as a collapsible tree. Keys are bold, values are color-coded by type: strings in green, numbers in blue, booleans in orange, and null in gray. Arrays and objects show their item count at a glance. Navigate with Ease Tap any node to expand or collapse it. Pinch-to-zoom and smooth scrolling make it easy to work through deeply nested structures. Nested objects and arrays display with clear indentation and matching closing brackets. Expand all or collapse all with a single tap from the toolbar. Search Across Keys and Values Tap the search icon to instantly filter across all keys and values. Match count updates in real time as you type, and previous/next buttons let you jump between results. Built for Developers Pry shows node count, byte size, and parse time at a glance. Long-press context menus let you copy keys, values, and paths. JSONPath display (e.g. $.data.users[0].name) gives you precise navigation. Long strings are truncated to keep the view clean. Open JSON files directly from the Files app, Safari, or any app that shares .json files. Fast by Design Pry is compiled to a native binary using the Perry framework โ€” TypeScript compiled directly to machine code. It launches instantly, parses JSON in under 1ms, and uses minimal memory. No runtime, no interpreter, no garbage collector.

Scan a QR code and you've probably had this moment: Alipay, WeChat, or just the browser? Lenskip skips that step for you. Point your camera at a code, and it works out where to go and jumps straight there, no picking required. One Press to Scan Bind Lenskip to your iPhone's Camera Control button and a single press starts a scan, even from the Lock Screen, with no unlocking and no digging through apps to find whichever one has a "Scan" feature. No Camera Control button? Add Lenskip to the Lock Screen instead; it's still one press to scan. You can also put it in Control Center or assign it to the Action button. One catch: opening a link or another app from a code you scanned on the Lock Screen still requires unlocking your device first. Figuring Out Where to Go Lenskip looks at what's in the code and which apps you have installed, then decides how to open it: a bike-share code goes to the bike-share app, a mini program code goes to WeChat, an Alipay code goes to Alipay, a regular web link opens in the browser, and plain text can just be copied. The developer keeps these rules updated behind the scenes, so a new kind of code doesn't have to wait for an app update. That said, whether a jump actually works still depends on the code's format and on whether the target app is installed and supports it. Your Call When Lenskip Isn't Sure For a code with no matching rule yet, Lenskip falls back to whatever you've chosen: the browser, WeChat, or Alipay. A lot of codes are only readable inside those last two anyway. No sign-up, no ads. Camera frames are processed entirely on your device, and the only thing ever sent to the developer is the feedback you choose to submit.
