I’d like to see the request / responses that an iphone app makes.
I mostly work on web apps, and I can use firebug / fiddler to see them. But how can I see incoming/outgoing traffic of an iOS app, if im running it on my wireless?
The Charles Web Proxy (and I believe Fiddler as well) allow connections from external hosts, when configured properly. In Charles, you will need to make sure your iPhone is added to the Access Control List in Proxy -> Access Control Settings.
After that, you can simply set your iPhone’s proxy to your computer’s Charles or Fiddler instance. In my case, my local desktop is at 192.168.10.1, thus my iPhone’s proxy is set to:
One problem, however, may be if you want to decrypt SSL traffic. It may be difficult to get the iPhone to add Fiddler or Charles’ certificate to the keychain.
