Stetho is a debug bridge for Android applications that exposes app internals to Chrome Developer Tools via chrome://inspect. It supports network inspection, SQLite database browsing, view hierarchy inspection, and an optional dumpapp CLI plus a JavaScript console.

Use cases

  • inspect android app network requests in chrome devtools
  • browse and edit sqlite database of an android app
  • debug android view hierarchy from desktop browser
  • run command-line commands against app internals with dumpapp
  • export android network traces to HAR
  • add a javascript console to an android app

When to choose

  • you develop Android apps and want Chrome DevTools-based inspection
  • you need to debug OkHttp/HttpURLConnection network traffic on device
  • you want to inspect or modify app SQLite databases interactively

When to avoid

  • you need a debugger for non-Android Java applications
  • you want actively developed tooling with modern Android Studio integration
  • you need iOS or cross-platform mobile debugging
