Better alternative to Charles Proxy

Charles Proxy is a popular HTTP traffic debugging tool, but it has limitations such as a steep learning curve, lack of collaboration features, VPN incompatibility, and the need to switch between browser & Charles. Requestly is a modern, user-friendly alternative that provides the power of Charles Proxy within the browser. It provides a browser extension and desktop application for debugging HTTP traffic on all platforms – Web browsers, Mobile browsers, Android & iOS apps. Requestly also provides an in-built mock server and session recording for recording & sharing http sessions with teammates for faster debugging.

This means that no proxy is applied at the browser level, ensuring smooth and reliable performance.

Simple & Powerful UI

Requestly brings the power of Charles proxy with improved user experience and collaboration features. You can use Requestly to modify any part of HTTPs request and response, including:
