Remote debugging on mobile

Sometimes, when intercepting in Burp does not work (and switching the user agent also does not help), you can use Chrome’s remote debugging features to at least see web requests.

On your mobile:

• Enable USB Debugging in the developer options
• Connect your phone via USB
• Open Chrome

On your workstation:

• Download the Android SDK Platform Tools: https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
• Extract it and run adb devices
• Confirm the debugging request on your mobile
• Open chrome://inspect/#devices
• Inspect your target tab
