ReqKit is a fast, lightweight native HTTP client for testing and debugging REST APIs on macOS.
Built directly with Cocoa and macOS system frameworks, no third-party libraries. ReqKit starts instantly and uses a fraction of the memory of browser-based alternatives.
KEY FEATURES
- Fully native macOS application, built with Cocoa
- No third-party libraries, built exclusively on macOS system frameworks
- Instant startup and low memory usage
- Send GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE and HEAD requests
- Organize requests into collections and browse full request history
- Custom headers, query parameters, and request body (JSON, XML, form)
- Basic and Bearer authentication support

- Response body download to file
- Dark, Light, and Auto theme, follows macOS system appearance

WHY REQKIT?
Most API clients rely on embedded browsers or heavy runtimes that consume hundreds of megabytes just to show a text field. ReqKit takes a different approach: a pure native implementation that is fast, efficient, and reliable.
Because it uses only what is already built into macOS, ReqKit:
- Starts instantly, every time
- Uses minimal system resources
- Requires no setup or additional installations
PERFECT FOR
- Developers who value performance and simplicity
- Anyone tired of heavyweight API tools
- Corporate or restricted environments
- Machines where you just want a tool that works
ReqKit stays out of your way. Just open it and start testing your APIs.

This update fixes two crashes related to sending requests: one involving variables resolving to longer values, and one that could occur when a request failed to connect. Recommended update for improved stability.
