Web Proxy iOS

The tool validates proxy configurations by routing a test request from an iOS device through a user-selected proxy and returning core metrics. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxies, and can optionally include per-request headers and a request body for POST methods. This enables developers and QA engineers to verify that a target URL is reachable via a given proxy, and to compare performance across proxies without integrating a full proxy client into an app. The implementation relies on standard proxy negotiation—HTTP CONNECT for HTTPS and direct HTTP for HTTP proxies, with SOCKS5 tunneling where selected. Results surface timing, status codes, content size, and response metadata for quick debugging. The tool is designed for ephemeral use during debugging sessions and does not retain payload data. It is particularly useful when evaluating geo-blocked endpoints, testing header behavior under proxy routing, or benchmarking latency on iOS devices. Advanced users can adjust TLS verification, supply custom headers, and send POST bodies to validate server behavior through proxies. The focus is on domain logic, data correctness, and clear signal on proxies’ impact, not on UI presentation or UX.
