I'm trying to install a Charles Certificate on an Android emulator and I noticed that there are two Credential use options: "VPN and apps" and "Wi-Fi".
I've tried looking around for explanations regarding to the two options, but the one I've found simply say "pick one that fits your use case."
What is the difference between the two options? Which one should a developer pick?
The
WiFi
option is for authentication WiFi networks, whileVPN and apps
is for authenticating certificates for SSL/TLS communication for apps including the browser.I can also confirm that
VPN and apps
is the right choice for proxying HTTPS requests for an Android device in Charles.Source: https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/2844832?hl=en
