DebugSwift is an open-source, in-app debugging toolkit for iOS applications built in Swift. It provides a floating overlay inside the running app for inspecting network traffic, monitoring performance, detecting memory leaks, debugging UI hierarchies, and browsing app resources like UserDefaults, Keychain, and SQLite.

Use cases

• inspect HTTP and WebSocket requests and responses inside my iOS app
• monitor CPU, memory, and FPS of my Swift application in real time
• detect memory leaks and retained view controllers during development
• debug view hierarchy and UI layout issues on device
• browse UserDefaults, Keychain, and sandbox files from within the app
• mock or modify API responses without a proxy server
• capture crash reports and console logs during testing

When to choose

• you need an all-in-one in-app debugger for iOS without external proxy or certificate setup
• you want to inspect network traffic, performance, and resources directly on a physical device
• you are building UIKit or SwiftUI apps and want a shake-to-toggle debug overlay
• you need automatic decryption of encrypted API responses during debugging

When to avoid

• you need debugging for Android or cross-platform apps
• you only need a desktop proxy tool like Charles or Proxyman for network inspection
• you require debugging tools for production users rather than development builds
