Configure Fiddler for Android Emulator

You can use Fiddler to debug traffic on any Android emulators that support simulated Wi-Fi (WiredSSID). Tested on Nox Player and it works perfectly. Remember, some application might not connect or crash to prevent Fiddler from debugging.

5. Click OK, and restart Fiddler.

6. Hover over the Online indicator at the far right of the Fiddler toolbar to display the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the Fiddler server. If you are using multiple network and have more IP addresses, just pick one if them. In this example, i will use 192.168.87.101 because it is connected as ethernet.
