Hey this is actually pretty useful!

I understand the need for installing a certificate to capture SSL, but it would be nice if you could just roll your own root CA cert. The documentation is not clear wether this is possible...

The link to the user guide on the itunes page is 404. (https://peek.tools/ios/guide)

Is it possible to view the requests on the mac instead of the phone as well?

Other than that, looks really useful, I'll try it out next time the need arises.

Developer here, thanks for your kind note :)

Makes sense that you would want to use your own root CA--especially when public key pinning is used. Added to the feature list!

The ability to view interception data on the Mac is on the roadmap. In fact, Peek for macOS (https://peek.tools) uses the same internal framework as Peek Tools for iOS, and sharing can be as easy as AirDrop.

Sorry about the 404 link, I'll fix that in the next update
