Frequently asked questions
Does DebugSwift ship to production?
Wrap all usage in #if DEBUG. The debugger should never be included in App Store release builds.
How is traffic captured?
URLSession and WebSocket methods are swizzled in-process. No system proxy or certificate trust required.
Does it work on Apple Silicon simulators?
Yes. Native arm64 simulator builds. Remove legacy EXCLUDED_ARCHS settings if you had them.
Flipper vs DebugSwift?
Flipper was deprecated by Meta in 2024. DebugSwift is an active MIT alternative with in-app UI.
Can I present the debugger without the floating ball?
Yes. Call DebugSwift.debugViewController() and present it modally or push it.
Is there a paid tier?
No. DebugSwift is fully MIT open source with no account or license key.
