See every request your apps make โ from your iPhone, with no Mac and no cable. HTTPGlass is a full HTTP(S) debugging proxy that runs entirely on-device. It installs a local VPN profile and its own root certificate, then captures and decrypts traffic from the apps on your phone the way a desktop proxy would. Nothing is relayed through a server and there is no account to create. CAPTURE โข Every request and response, with status, method, host, timing and size โข HTTPS decryption through an on-device root CA you install and trust yourself โข HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2, gzip, deflate, Brotli and chunked bodies decoded for you โข Full-text search across URLs, headers and bodies โข Sessions: browse, scope, rename, share and delete each capture run READ โข Body viewers: pretty JSON, tree, field list, raw and hex โข GraphQL inspector โ operations and variables, not a wall of escaped text โข WebSocket frame viewer โข Image and form-body previews โข Export to HAR, or generate a cURL / Swift / Python / JavaScript / Kotlin snippet CHANGE โข Breakpoints โ pause a request or a response, edit any header or the body, then send it โข Map Local โ answer a request with a mocked response, no backend needed โข Map Remote โ send a request to a different host or path โข Rewrite โ rules that add, replace or remove headers, query items and body text โข Scripting โ onRequest and onResponse hooks in JavaScript, run on-device against live traffic โข Compose and replay any request โข Network Condition โ throttle bandwidth and add latency to test on a bad connection CONTROL โข Block, Allow and SSL Proxying lists so you only capture what you care about โข No-Cache rules โข Face ID / Touch ID app lock over captured traffic โข iPad split view: the traffic list and the detail side by side PRIVACY Captured traffic never leaves your device. No cloud relay, no account, no advertising identifier. Optional, opt-in usage analytics and crash reports can be turned on or off at any time in Settings, and they never include captured traffic โ no hostnames, URLs, headers, bodies or certificates. FREE AND PRO Free includes capture, decryption, every body viewer, search, sessions, export, code generation, one Block pattern, one Allow pattern, one SSL Proxying pattern and one request + one response breakpoint pattern. HTTPGlass Pro unlocks unlimited Block / Allow / SSL Proxying patterns, Decrypt all, No-Cache, Map Local and unlimited breakpoints. $8.99/month or $39.99/year with a 3-day free trial.

Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://httpglass.com/privacy/ Requires iOS 18.
