Host overrides

Host overrides let you map a hostname to a custom IP address (and optional port), similar to an on-device hosts file.

Common use cases

  • Point production domains to a staging server.
  • Test a new backend without changing client code.
  • Override DNS resolution for debugging.

Create a host entry

  1. Open Settings → Hosts.
  2. Tap Add Host.
  3. Enter the Hostname (wildcards supported).
  4. Enter the Target IP and optional Port.
  5. Save and enable the entry.

Notes

  • Host overrides apply only while capture is active.
  • Use distinct names to keep entries organized.
  • Disable or delete overrides when you are done to avoid confusion.
