Description
Problem Description
I have 2 ios clients that connect through the proxy. I already installed the certs and everything works fine for the sites allowed.
The issue is that on one of the two ios client (same configuration) facebook and tik tok app doesn't download data. I'm expect to works fine because is out of https inspection. If i try to check on logs, nothing there because is not in allowed host.
mitmdump --allow-hosts google.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- mitmdump --allow-hosts google.
- start ios facebook app or tik tok.
- The app doesn't work as expected

Research direction
Start by running the provided mitmdump --allow-hosts google. command with the described iOS Facebook or TikTok client, then compare its behavior with an allowed host and inspect the proxy logs. Trace the --allow-hosts handling and the path for hosts excluded from HTTPS inspection. Done means excluded sites behave as expected and the relevant behavior is covered by a reproducible check.
