App crashes all the time

Wasted $50

Subscription-forcing trash

Requires starting a trial with auto-billing afterwards to even get into the app. Instantly deleted.

No free version

You can’t even test out the app without signing up for a $5 weekly subscription. Most apps at least have a free tier. Junk

Absolute garbage.

App Store simply says “in store purchases”. Upon opening it first time, you have NO OPTION to use-before-buy. You are forced to select a subscription. Sorry - not paying monthly/yearly for something that should be a one-time purchase. Especially when I don’t even have the option to test-drive it first.

Waste of time

What’s the point of making the app free on the App Store if I can't use anything at all without a subscription?

Postman integration broken

Blank collection waste of money

Scam!

Forces you to get pro wish i coup give it 0 stars but i like the concept of the app

Do not update

After the update I lost all my collection’s rendering this app useless 😭

Postman Integration Fails

I purchased this app and now the Postman integration is failing what a mess. Please get this fixed.

No longer feels like a Mac app

The new Mac Catalyst version is workflow breaking for me. Main issues for me are: 1. No pretty-printing of JSON responses. This makes the long single-line responses I work with daily impossible to read easily. 2. Cannot move requests between folders. Drag and drop, edit, and right clicking show no way to reorganize existing requests. 3. Removing the third column means I have lots of wasted space both when viewing saved requests and while running requests. 4. Request sizes keep coming back as -1 byte. HTTP Bot with the Pro unlock was my daily driver, but the productivity losses are not sustainable for me.

Good and then turns Bad

Initially works great and soon becomes slow and almost takes 2-3GB of data just for basic requests, and no option clean, except deleting entire app!

The worst app on the App Store

Amongst all the apps that exist on the App Store, HTTPBot is the worst of them all. It looks deceptively beautiful on the outside. It looks like precisely what you need. But on the inside, it is the largest mess that you could ever imagine. The integration with Shortcuts doesn’t work at all. Variables don’t work at all. You will waste hours of frustration on this app and will have nothing at all to show for it. Absolutely nothing whatsoever is documented. The dev ignores every email he is sent. I’m surprised Apple hasn’t delisted it yet.

Showing signs of age

I once rated this app quite highly. Unfortunately my experience using it with the latest iOS hasn't been great. Requests will often refuse to save, URLs in an imported Postman collection have their domain stripped and navigating the app reveals various small UI quirks and parts that don't work as they should (e.g. adding requests to favourites). Unless an update/overhaul is forthcoming, I wouldn't recommend this app going forward.

Nice functionality but the documentation is poor

Almost impossible to find what ‘variable’ parameter means when running HTTPBot through iOS shortcuts. Documentation in app or on website is non-existent (not as in there’s very little documentation, but as in there’s literally zero documentation pages nor sections). Googling does not help. Support and user community is small. Finally, even on their website where they say environmental variables can be saved (maybe a hint at what variables might mean), there’s no clear way to do that in the iOS app.

Bad implementation

1. Laggy UI [most important issue] 2. Can't adjust the width of the output panel [another UI issue] bad UI in overall 3. POST request with file body has bugs [working fine in other application] 4. Can't set up request headers automatically from the file type (jpg/png etc.)

Reasonably cool but crushingly expensive

This is generally a well done tool. But it is SERIOUSLY overpriced!

Bought this to work with Postman, but the whole postman relating section just keep crashing

I it did let me login my Postman account but whenever I tried to import my collection from Postman the app just crashed and quit by itself. The app is now at its’ newest version so I’d try if updating my iPad os to a higher version would work or not

$30 and abandoned

Doesn’t even have iCloud sync like another $5 app has.

App crashes 100% of the time

Do not use

Extremely limited functionality, mediocre UI

Not enough to justify using.

Your app keeps freezing the UI

It looks like your app is blocking the main thread. Not sure how you can justify charging for an that can’t get that part right.

Useful but needs support for uncoding URLs

I use a URL which includes space and semicolon characters to delimit parameters. These need to be encoded as %20 and %3b respectively. If I enter a string I can type these % sequences manually; this is tedious but it works - the first time. But then I “save” the escaped URL and my escaped characters revert back to space and semicolon. In this condition the URL no longer works (rejected by the server). Would be good if the app had an option to perform the escaping and it should preserve the escaping during a ‘save’

Too buggy for offering in-app purchases

The app is too buggy for offering in-app purchases. I have paid the subscription for using Postman but I can't link the account on my mac but I did linked it on my iPad. From the iPad, when I try to import the collections from Postman, it fails. Definitely, not ready yet.

Crashes constantly

I’m glad I haven’t paid for pro, as it constantly crashes

SCAM - DOES NOT WORK

Just a waste of money that the apple cartel witholds money for an app that doesn’t work. When issuing requests nothing shows in the response. waste of money. scam

Okay app, happy with the Postman integration, but very costly for what it does.

I needed to buy it for work, but I really wish it was either cheaper, or at least had a better UI. Very expensive for what it is, but does the essentials.

CANT DO NOTHING IN FREE VERSION

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME DOWNLOADING THIS APP UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY £12.99

Pretty useless

For everything it requires to upgrade to pro.

Broken usability IPhone X

Guys could be great but is unusable due to not being able to zoom out to fit text on screen.
