Proxyman is a native macOS HTTP(S) debugging proxy application that captures, inspects, and mocks HTTP/HTTPS and WebSocket traffic from browsers, iOS simulators, and Android devices. It includes advanced tools like SSL proxying, breakpoints, Map Local/Remote, scripting, and network condition simulation, with companion iOS/Android apps and a commercial license model.

Use cases

  • debug http requests from ios app
  • capture https traffic on macos
  • inspect api responses from android device
  • mock api responses during development
  • debug websocket traffic
  • intercept nodejs python ruby http traffic
  • charles proxy alternative for mac
  • throttle network conditions to test app

When to choose

  • you develop on macOS and want a polished native GUI debugger for HTTP/HTTPS traffic
  • you need to capture traffic from iOS simulators or Android devices with minimal setup
  • you want built-in mocking tools like breakpoints, Map Local, and scripting without writing custom proxies

When to avoid

  • you need a fully free open-source tool - Proxyman is commercial with paid licenses for advanced features
  • you primarily debug on Linux/Windows where the macOS-native experience is not the focus
  • you need headless or CI-automated traffic capture rather than interactive GUI debugging
