JWT Lens verifies HS256/384/512, RS256/384/512, PS256/384/512 and ES256/384/512 using a secret or PEM public key you provide ā all computed locally with the system's WebCrypto, never sent anywhere. Privacy by design: ⢠No network requests ā ever ⢠No analytics, no tracking, no accounts ⢠Nothing is stored: tokens and keys live only in the popup while you use it Whether you're debugging OAuth / OIDC flows, inspecting a bearer token, or learning how JWTs work, JWT Lens keeps it quick, clear, and completely on-device. Universal app: works in Safari on macOS, iOS and iPadOS.
Schemely

Schemely is a link tester for iOS developers and QA. Take any URL, generate a tappable link, and actually tap it to see how a URL scheme or Universal Link behaves ā the reliable way to reproduce real-world taps. Why tapping matters Universal Links behave differently depending on how they are opened. Schemely reproduces the real paths: ⢠External ā hands the URL to the system (opens the target app, or Safari). ⢠Web tap ā renders a real anchor in a web page and taps it, the most reliable way to trigger a Universal Link. Features ⢠AASA Inspector ā fetch a domain's apple-app-site-association and check whether a URL is a Universal Link, and which applinks rule it matches. ⢠Result diagnostics ā when a link doesn't open, see why and what to check next. ⢠Instant URL kind detection: web URL, custom scheme, or malformed. Unsafe schemes (javascript/data) are blocked. ⢠Clear result feedback: opened, no handler, opened from an anchor tap, or not a Universal Link. ⢠A QR code for every link ā scan to open and verify on another device. ⢠History and favorites, stored entirely on your device. ⢠Share from any app ā send a URL to Schemely via the share sheet to verify it. ⢠Copy as a rich link or a plain URL. ⢠English and Japanese. Privacy Schemely collects no data. Everything stays on your device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: JWT Lens at 3 against Schemely's 1. JWT Lens also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
