What is Remote Debugging?

Remote Debugging lets you inspect a page running on an Android device from your development machine.

How to run it

When to use it

• If we need to check the behaviour of the app in the real device and at the same time be able to debug a feature.
• If we need to check a different behaviour when the user uses the application in a computer browser or in a portable device browser.
• Easy and fast alternative to Android Studio for debugging.
• Even if we need to show a screencast of the application in a real device instead of a simulator.

Limitations

Only for Android devices.
