Works as advertised. Captured pcap trace from the phone that I could download and analyze which helped find the networking issues right away. Much easier than the path I was on trying to capture the network trace from the router. RE the comment about needing VPN: that's how it works, RTM. Stock Android doesn't allow root networking access that would be needed to snoop, so the app, per google own recommendations, uses a local loopback VPN to intercept the network traffic. It's only on while the capture is running, then turns itself off. You can confirm it in the phone's network settings.

Really like this app it just works without much issue and is able to narrow down the packet capture that of one app which is extremely useful. I was able to see an app I was using is having some issues with some json calls so that's pretty handy! Thanks for the app!

I have just started using this app. It would be nice to have a preference specifying a default pcap save path (like sdcard). Maybe a circular buffer size would be useful. I am looking forward to using the app. As a Wireshark and (Riverbed) Transaction Analyzer user I am glad there is remote capture and storage.

Why does it request to connect to a VPN server. hhhhmmm something is phishi here. I cancelled it right away. This tool should only be doing local traffic sniff and the data that was sniffed should not leave my mobile phone. thus, connecting to a VPN server is not necessary.
