How is this showing anything? It's a landing page with an email capture form and a 47 second video of the same screen shot.

I was trying to figure out how it's different from inspecting from within Safari on a Mac, but I don't see the answer there. I just tried and it works fine over Wi-Fi as well. Maybe Windows support?

Any plan for Linux support in the future?
auchenberg · 6 years ago
:wave Kenneth here. Linux support is on the roadmap, and can be supported via https://libimobiledevice.org/ but not all functionality might be possible, as libimobiledevice isn't 100% on pair with Apple's own driver that's provided via iTunes on MacOS and Windows.

Would love to get some help testing this as I'm not a Linux user myself. Shoot me an email at kenneth@auchenberg.dk if you are interested!

Seconded. I've been working on a webapp that's meant to work on iOS and I haven't figured out any way to debug it from my Linux machine, even with my phone being jailbroken.

Side note, if you just want to test with WebKit: GNOME Web (sudo apt install epiphany) uses WebKit internally. It doesn't have a responsive design mode or even a way to change the user agent, but it does have the exact same rendering and JS engine.

Which is it? Also minor typo, "off" should be "of".

But looks great, congrats on launching. Excited to try it out!

I was actually hoping this ran on iPad OS/iOS

I use https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/inspect-browser/id1203594958 but would like a more fully featured environment. Not sure if anyone has found a better developer browser for iPad?

I could see how this is useful. I indeed had to buy a Mac for the not so niche use case of web testing in iOS. Interestingly it’s so easy to debug chrome on iOS by just heading to chrome://inspect over http

Does this use the existing iOS Chrome proxy or is it built from scratch?

This is a new pure JavaScript implementation. No native dependencies. See more on https://inspect.dev/why

Does it support websockets... as in, can I view/debug the data sent/received on the websocket that the web app is using to connect to its backend?

What are the advantages over the app web tools?

Hi! Kenneth, the creator here. Inspect have several advantages over Safari Inspector. I've outlined them here: https://inspect.dev/why
