  • PCAPdroid

    No-root network monitor, firewall and PCAP dumper for Android

  • https://github.com/emanuele-f/PCAPdroid is very good, shows content too (for http)

  • httptoolkit

    HTTP Toolkit is a beautiful & open-source tool for debugging, testing and building with HTTP(S) on Windows, Linux & Mac :tada: Open an issue here to give feedback or ask for help.

  • Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but if you could side-load on windows this app should work. https://httptoolkit.com/

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • mitmproxy

    An interactive TLS-capable intercepting HTTP proxy for penetration testers and software developers.

  • mitmproxy is another great option on desktops and available on all platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux). But I had a hard time sniffing on Android apps with it, even with apps virtualized on the system itself.
