How to organize the ability to listen to the requests that the Android application makes?

Question

Android

I just can’t send requests from one app through the PC to figure them out. Does anyone have such experience? Setting up a proxy (an option in smart to send requests to an address on the same network) on a wifi network (common for smart and laptop) did not work. I say right away the idea is not in hacking, I just need a format for how to communicate with the server because there are server addresses, but I can’t understand what to send to them to receive data.

Answer 2

For example via tcpdump or wireshark.
1. Run tcpdump or wireshark on your computer (on the interface with the Internet).
2. Distribute the Internet to the phone via the wifi of the company (so that the phone goes to the network via the computer).
3. True, it is necessary to mute all telegrams, slacks, skypes, chrome ... And if there are no viruses, then tcpdump will be empty.
4. Opens the application on the phone.
5. See the packages on the screen.
