Network Monitor

Inspect Network Requests in realtime

Explore JSON responses, request headers, metrics, copy cURL requests, and much more.

Network Monitoring is made possible by Pulse, an open-source project created by Alex Grebenyuk.

Network Speed Control

Simulate slow networking conditions like 3G, Edge, and 100% loss without affecting your Mac’s connectivity.

RocketSim panel that shows a dropdown for network speed control. A popup is shown that gives more information about the network speed control feature.

Simulator Airplane Mode

How does your app work without a connection? Only your Simulator app gets disconnected. You can still use your Mac’s connection to search Stack Overflow, use ChatGPT, or share your progress via Slack.

Compare designs

Use overlays or slide comparisons to spot differences between the implementation and the design.

Pixel-perfect implementations of delivered designs. Add your designs in the compare tool and verify your implementation, right in the Simulator.

Grids

Use the grid overlay to perfectly align elements across the screen. Change the color and spacing to match your needs.

RocketSim Insights

Increase the productivity of your whole team

Keep track of Xcode Build Durations

Unlike Xcode, RocketSim will cache all your builds for months to follow. You'll be able to compare build times and get notified when compilation times increase.
RocketSim panel that shows an overview of build insights of a scheme in an app. It shows build counts and build durations split up in mutliple ways.

Team Insights

Build Apps Faster with your whole team

What's the build duration across the team? Does an M3 Max make a difference in terms of compilation time? With team insights, you'll be able to optimize productivity based on real build data

Everything you need, right from the statusbar

RocketSim keeps things simple. Access all actions right from the statusbar, without any disturbing windows.

Trigger deeplinks

Directly launch universal links that you just copied or select one from your stored groups.

Recent builds

Grant, revoke, or reset permissions. Open common folders or edit user defaults.

RocketSim opened from the MacOS menu bar. It shows a dropdown with navigation towards: deeplinks, screen recordings, screen captures, recent builds, deleting derived data, permissions, sandbox user data and more.

Capture recordings & screenshots

Create MP4 and GIF recordings or capture a screenshot.
