But why not just use the browser's dev tools? Both Android and iOS support connecting a phone to a computer and debugging using the browser's native tools.

  What if you're on the go and only have a phone available? I reckon this is intended for quick experiments, not in depth debugging.

    Yeah that makes the most sense to me. I could see a full blown desktop style inspector being useful on a 11”+ tablet (which is really just a laptop sans keyboard) but it’d be too frustrating for extended usage on anything smaller.

    Use an extension. It will work on any site. Example for iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/web-inspector/id1584825745 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/web-inspector/id1584825745

    Oh! I really didn't realise (young?) people don't use computers even for developing purposes. I'm indeed out of touch

      Yeah: it really is a different world now: kids--who absolutely should not be locked out of access to development tools--pretty universally only have access to phones and tables, or, at best, a highly locked-down Chromebook; but like, it goes much further than even that: even lawyers I work with--people who you'd think MUST have a full computer--sometimes only work on an iPad!! :(

    They do. It's just one that's locked down and user-hostile, designed as a consumption device.
