MTD SafeBrowsing Tester is a lightweight diagnostic tool that evaluates how a mobile device responds when accessing different web URLs. The app performs standard HTTPS requests using Apple's networking APIs and records the outcome of each request. This allows developers, IT administrators, and security professionals to better understand how network policies and mobile security solutions respond to different types of URLs. Key Features • Test batches of URLs using standard HTTPS requests • View results showing Allowed, Blocked, or Error outcomes • Monitor response timing and request status • Simple dashboard with scan statistics and recent results • Export test results for analysis or documentation How It Works The application performs normal HTTPS requests using Apple’s URLSession networking framework and records the connection result. No traffic interception, packet capture, or network manipulation occurs. Privacy MTD SafeBrowsing Tester does not collect, store, or transmit personal data. All testing results remain on the device during the active session and are cleared when the app closes. Intended Use This tool is designed for security testing, network diagnostics, and demonstration purposes.
JSON Pilot
Read full descriptionHide full description
A native JSON viewer and editor for iPhone and iPad, with an on-device AI assistant that explains your data without sending a byte to the cloud. JSON Pilot opens any JSON — from Files, the share sheet, AirDrop, your clipboard, or an HTTP request you fire from inside the app — and gives you three ways to read it: a syntax-highlighted Tree, a tap-to-edit Fields drilldown, and a Text view with line numbers. Edit at any level, prettify or minify, validate with a precise line:col error, and save the edits back to the original file. Multi-megabyte files open, search and edit smoothly. — FREE FOREVER — The whole viewer and editor is free with no account, no nags, no cloud sync. View, edit, validate, format, minify, search, Save, Save to Files, Share, Copy. We never gate the basics. — ON-DEVICE AI ASSISTANT — Ask "What is this JSON?", "Find issues" or "Extract all emails" and JSON Pilot answers locally, in your language, using Apple Foundation Models. Your JSON, your prompts and the model's replies never leave your device. No server, no API key, no cloud fallback. (The AI assistant requires Apple Intelligence: iPhone 15 Pro or later, or an iPad with M1 or A17 Pro or later, in a language Apple Intelligence supports. On other devices the assistant is turned off automatically; everything else in the app still works.) — POWER TOOLS (PRO) — • JSON Diff — compare two payloads by structure. Reformatting is never a change, and array items are lined up. Summary view groups Changed / Added / Removed; Unified view shows a GitHub-style line diff. • JSONPath queries — $, ., [i], [*], .. and more. Matches highlight right on the Tree. • Format conversion — export to YAML, CSV or XML. • HTTP request tool — send GET / POST / PUT / PATCH / DELETE with custom headers and a JSON body, then open the response in the same workspace. • Auto-fix — repair broken JSON: trailing commas, single quotes, unquoted keys, comments, smart quotes. • Themes — accent color and three syntax palettes. — PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY — Zero analytics SDKs. Zero telemetry. Zero crash reporters. The only network traffic the app initiates is StoreKit (your purchases) and HTTP requests you send yourself — and their responses are never cached on disk. Recents are stored locally, CloudKit is explicitly disabled, and Clear Recents erases your history together with every local copy of your documents. JSON Pilot does not request Camera, Photos, Contacts, Microphone, Location or any other iOS permission. — UPGRADE TO PRO — Two ways to unlock the same Pro features: • Monthly subscription — billed monthly, cancel anytime. • Lifetime — one-time purchase, keep Pro forever. Both options unlock the same features. See the App Store listing for current pricing in your region. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions. — REQUIREMENTS — iPhone or iPad with iOS or iPadOS 26.4 or later. AI features require Apple Intelligence. Available in English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português (Brasil), Русский, 日本語, 한국어 and 简体中文. — SUPPORT — Questions, bugs, ideas?
