Charles Proxy alternative

Charles Proxy vs in-app debugging

Charles excels at system-wide HTTPS proxying on desktop. DebugSwift targets iOS developers who need in-app context: sandbox, UI, and performance alongside network logs.

Why DebugSwift

  • Zero proxy or certificate configuration
  • Captures traffic with full app context (process, sandbox)
  • UI debugging tools Charles cannot provide
  • MIT open source

FAQ

When use Charles instead?
When debugging traffic from non-instrumented apps or cross-device proxy scenarios.
