Charles Proxy for iOS lets you capture and inspect 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 from the creators 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.

FEATURES * SSL Proxying to view SSL requests in plain text * View and share request and responses bodies * Syntax highlighting for text request and response bodies * Measure network performance over WiFi or Mobile / Cellular networks * Block requests to nominated hosts * DNS spoofing

App is great. But I would like to see the desktop feature “external proxy”. It would be amazing. Thanks.

Doesn’t work
     
by GordonChil · October 11, 2025

Not sure why, but this doesn’t work with our app. You’d think this would be a simple thing to proxy, but somehow they’ve mucked this up. I get a whole lot of failed requests when I try to proxy. I’m disappointed that I spent money on this.

Long history of a great product, lately buggy
     
by TonyGreenThumb · January 10, 2022

So many bugs lately. I hope it can get fixed. I have been a huge fan over the past years.

Was working. Now keeps crashing on startup
     
by oohwill · January 27, 2022

App was working well when it works. Lately I can’t even get it to start. It gets stuck on the splash screen and get stuck. If I wait long enough it’ll crash. Sad to see a paid app get neglected. It’s been a year since an update.
