# iOS WebKit Debug Proxy
22

3-
The ios_webkit_debug_proxy (aka _iwdp_) allows developers to inspect MobileSafari and UIWebViews on real and simulated iOS devices via the [Chrome DevTools UI](https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/) and [Chrome Remote Debugging Protocol](https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/debugger-protocol). DevTools requests are translated into Apple's [Remote Web Inspector service](https://developer.apple.com/technologies/safari/developer-tools.html) calls.

#### DevTools note

In recent version of Chrome and Webkit there're major discrepancies in dev tools protocols, this is why latest Chrome tools are not very functional with this utility. Maintaining the compatibility is out of the scope of the current project, in this regard you could find [RemoteDebug/remotedebug-ios-webkit-adapter](https://github.com/RemoteDebug/remotedebug-ios-webkit-adapter) project useful. Another option is Webkit devtools extracted from Webkit sources, e.g. [artygus/webkit-webinspector](https://github.com/artygus/webkit-webinspector).
