Charles Proxy1.7.1

Charles Proxy for iOS lets you capture, inspect and modify network requests and responses on your iOS device. You can view metadata, headers and bodies in the app, so you can finally debug your app’s networking issues without a computer.

Charles Proxy for iOS is an app from the creator of Charles Proxy for desktop.

HOW IT WORKS
Turn Charles on when you want to start capturing. Charles captures your network requests and responses in the background while you test your app or website. Return to Charles to inspect the requests and responses.

If you also have Charles on your desktop, you can transfer recorded sessions to your desktop to explore them on the big screen.

Charles creates a local VPN on your device. All of your network traffic passes through Charles on your device, and then out to the internet as usual over either WiFi or Mobile / Cellular data. There is no remote server involved, and your data always remains private to you.

Charles on iOS is under constant development, with a focus on fixing issues and then adding new capabilities. 1.1.1 04/09/2018 Thank you for all the great feedback on Charles for iOS. We have made a number of important improvements in this minor update release, including:

* New icon and splash screen (while we dearly love our icon, we felt the new icon fit better on iOS)
* Brotli support
* Opt-out for Fabric in Charles Settings
* Bug fixes including crashes, and Charles can now start correctly after you've used another VPN app.

Charles currently uses Fabric for crash reporting and usage stats. We will be removing Fabric in a future release, once we have been able to replace its crash reporting function. 1.1 04/04/2018 1.0 03/27/2018
