Question

Is there an optimized mobile version of Postman?

I work with Postman all the time, but sometimes I have to test some requests urgently without my laptop at hand. Does anyone know if there is something like a postman for mobile phones?

Download the API Tester application, it can fully replace your desktop analogues. It has the most understandable and functional interface which is optimized for a mobile phone screen, and most importantly, it’s free. I’ve been working for a long time with it.

Hello @bubblytealurchin

There seems to be an android application for using Postman, but it doesn’t seem like it is published and supported officially by Postman, but rather developed by a third party.

Another thing that might come in handy is to RDP to your laptop via your mobile device as well, if access via the mobile device browser is not available (due to logins and etc)

Hi @bubblytealurchin,

There are a lot of other tools like Postman you can use however I can’t say there are more or less mobile-optimized. Apigee is an excellent alternative to Postman if you want to try an API tool. This platform helps develop and manage APIs by later fronting services with a proxy. It does seem to be mobile-friendly by the looks of it however I’ve never extensively tested it.

Please do let me know once you find something that suits your need as I’m eager to see what it is!
