ByteSniffer is a professional network debugging tool designed for iOS developers, QA engineers, and networking professionals. It supports real-time capture and analysis of HTTP/HTTPS, SSE, WebSocket, TCP, and UDP traffic. You can inspect request headers, response content, real-time messages, bidirectional raw data, and data in multiple formats including Hex, Text, and JSON. ByteSniffer also provides useful tools such as Host filtering, capture history, full-text search, sharing and export, request replay, content rewriting, breakpoints, and JavaScript scripting.

HtpSniffer 是一款面向开发者、测试人员和接口联调场景的 HTTP/HTTPS 网络调试工具,帮助你在 iPhone 上查看、分析、过滤和复现网络请求。 你可以在本机开启抓包,查看请求方法、URL、状态码、请求头、响应头、请求体、响应体、Cookie、Set-Cookie 和详细耗时。对于接口开发、移动端联调、测试环境验证、问题复现和代理链路排查,HtpSniffer 可以让网络请求变得更清楚、更容易定位。 主要功能: HTTP/HTTPS 抓包记录:按会话保存请求,便于区分每次测试过程。 请求与响应详情:分 Tab 查看总览、请求、响应、Cookie 和耗时。 HTTPS 调试:通过本地证书和 Network Extension,在你授权后查看 HTTPS 明文内容。 规则过滤:支持完整域名、域名后缀、关键字和正则表达式匹配。 流量动作:支持记录、直连和拒绝,减少系统服务、广告域名或无关请求干扰。 域名映射:将测试域名映射到指定主机,方便本地服务联调。 外部代理:将流量转发到上游代理工具,适合与桌面代理、网关或团队调试环境组合使用。 脚本扩展:使用 JavaScript 自动处理请求事件。 重写与重发:基于当前请求修改 URL、方法、Header 和 Body 后重新发送,复现接口问题更直接。 Cookie 与耗时分析:查看请求 Cookie、响应 Cookie,以及排队、连接、TLS、发送、等待、接收等耗时信息。 数据导出与清理:选择会话后批量导出或清除抓包记录,便于归档和协作。 隐私与安全: HtpSniffer 的抓包数据默认保存在你的设备本地,不会自动上传请求内容、Cookie、Header、请求体或响应体。你可以随时清理记录,也可以主动导出数据用于问题归档或团队协作。 请仅在你有权调试的 App、网站、接口或测试环境中使用本工具。HTTPS 抓包需要你主动安装并信任本地证书,调试完成后可以停止抓包并移除证书。
