Changelog

An overview of recent updates and improvements to Inspect.

πŸš€ Experimental Android support

android

This release adds experimental Android support, which has been a common user ask since we launched. Inspect will now detect and leverage adb on your local machine to connect to physical Android devices and emulators, so you can debug websites and web views on Android with Inspect.

It's still very early for Android support, so expect things to be a bit unstable, but give things a spin and let us know how it works for you!

See our docs https://inspect.dev/docs/guides/android on how to get started.

This release is a minor release focused on improving device troubleshooting when something goes wrong. Inspect can now understand the connected device better and read out whether the device is paired with the local computer and when the device is locked to the home screen. Inspect now also understands when another tool is debugging a target, and disable that target within Inspect.

Lastly, we are also fixing a blocking issue that broke debugging for Service Workers and JS Contexts.

This release is a semi-major release landing big improvements to account management, where you now can create your own team to manage multiple accounts under one subscription. Add your team and manage your subscription, all from within settings! Available to everyone using our Pro plan.

Lastly, we are also fixing a blocking issue that broke Inspect when trying to debug UIWebViews on iOS 14 and newer. We have landed several UI improvements within the app, such as a built-in changelog, dropdown menus for the account, and smaller UI tweaks to make it more clear when Inspect can't find any debuggable targets.

✨ Improved iOS Simulator detection

Screen Shot 2021-06-24 at 9 56 04 PM

This release is a minor update covering a few bug fixes and improvements. Most notably is the new detection of iOS simulators on macOS, which uses the xcrun simctl utility from XCode to get metadata about booted simulators. This change makes it possible for Inspect to detect the iOS version running in simulators properly. Unfortunately, this means that you will need to have Xcode Commandline Tools installed to use Inspect with iOS simulators, but we expect most of you to have Xcode installed anyways.
