Android APK HTTPS user certificates how-to

Starting with Android Nougat, Google changed the way apps handle user certificates:

Apps that target API Level 24 and above no longer trust user or admin-added CAs for secure connections, by default.

This means that certificates issued by applications like [Charles][charles] or [mitmproxy][mitmproxy] are no longer accepted, so these proxies won't work for HTTPS traffic.

This tutorial explains what needs to be done to overcome that restriction and be able to sniff any Android app's HTTPS requests.

Things I learned while playing with Cordova

• use Webstorm to develop your app
• deploy via Webstorm (it has a Cordova configuration template)
• try your app in Chrome by clicking the Chrome button in Webstorm
• configure JetBrains IDE plugin in Chrome to allow for cross-origin requests
• your Android app will complain about cross-origin requests as well
• you can debug your deployed Android app via Chrome through chrome://inspect
• if you're previewing your page in Chrome, you may need to disable web security in order to use fetch() pointing to other domains. See this
