The Postman Alternative
for iPhone & iPad
Postman has no native iOS app. RestForge does — a full REST API client for iPhone and iPad that imports your Postman collections and runs the same pm.* test scripts, right from your pocket.
Why RestForge
The mobile Postman experience, done natively
If you searched for "Postman for iPhone" or "Postman iPad app" and came up empty, that's because Postman ships desktop and web only. RestForge is purpose-built for iOS so you can test APIs anywhere — on the train, on call, away from your laptop.
📱 Native iOS & iPadOS
Built with native frameworks for instant launch, smooth scrolling, low battery drain, and full iPad split-screen — not a browser tab pretending to be an app.
📥 Imports Postman collections
Bring your existing work with you. RestForge reads the Postman collection format (v2.0 and v2.1) — requests, folders, headers, and variables map across automatically.
📝 Runs your pm.* scripts
The full pm.* JavaScript API: pm.test, pm.expect, pm.sendRequest, pm.environment, and Chai-style assertions. Existing Postman tests run unchanged.
🔒 Encrypted, offline-first
Work with no signal and sync later. Cloud sync is end-to-end encrypted (AES-256-GCM) with a zero-knowledge design — we never see your keys or request data.
Feature Parity
Everything you used Postman for — on your iPhone
Requests & collections
All HTTP methods, every body type (JSON, raw, XML, form-data, file upload), saved collections and folders, full searchable history.
Environments & variables
Dev / staging / production environments with {{variable}} syntax in URLs, headers, bodies, and scripts — plus encrypted secret storage.
Auth & scripting
Basic Auth, Bearer Token, pre/post-request JavaScript, and a real console for logging — the same workflow you know from Postman.
Code export
Turn any request into ready-to-paste cURL (free) or JavaScript, Python, Dart, and Go (Premium).
