As a cybersecurity engineer, this is an excellent tool! One of my malware detection tools (only 1 of them, sadly) said it was blocking an app contacting a malicious site but didn't say which app it was or what it was sending. I downloaded this app, and it told me the exact app, the data that was sent, and a lot more info. Great app!

Very useful and helpful. A small feature request-right now when I export the log, only request url and some related info is included in the file, not possible to save the entire request and response data for every request into single file. Saving each request and response takes too much effort since the app that I'm inspecting makes too many requests and It's very hard to open each and save the request and response. If you need more info, I'll write an email once you respond.

Grate apk love to see you make 2 more for the usb Bluetooth monitor devices like the ubertooth one and one for sub gigahertz monitor for the years stick that would be fun to test out as well.

Love the app. Wish you could grip search through all the packets in order to find a particular string. Also, how come there's sometimes unknown applications sending traffic? You know you could do to improve this app significantly? Make it so that the viewable interface of the list of connections can be sorted like a spreadsheet. So you'd have a column for the amount of data or packets that you could tap at the top, and it would sort connections by which app is sending the most data.

App stops abruptly. Once the app stops abruptly no logs are generated then what's the use of this app then? Please fix the abrupt or sudden app shut down.

Useless. It doesn't even log the url params or the methods . If its get post and the params. So stupid.

I don't understand anything because I have read your user guide but nothing important matches to my expectations, .make it to be used by begginers of ethical hacking issues. Poor app🙄🙄

Hey can I can sip request data like incoming call log request.

Does not leverage root access. Requires a fake VPN to intercept traffic-making it useless for troubleshooting VPN issues.
