How Do I view if the Burp CA is installed in iOS 8?

Hi, How do I view if the Burp CA is installed in iOS 8? In iOS 7 I could do it under General -> Profiles but in iOS 8 this screen has gone. Thank you

This article describes installing the Burp CA cert on iOS, and was written based on iOS 8: https://support.portswigger.net/customer/portal/articles/1841109-installing-burp-s-ca-certificate-in-an-ios-device

Yes I know. But this is my scenario: I don't remember if I have already installed the Burp CA or not and I want to know it. And not because I want to install it, just to know if it is already installed or not. In iOS 7 I had just to look under General -> Profiles, but in iOS 8 this is not available anymore. How could I do? Thanks

Hi Carl You could try browsing through Burp and checking whether you get an SSL warning? Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Thanks. But If I would like to uninstall the burp CA on my device with iOS 8, how should I do?

Hi Carl We have just checked the settings on iOS version 8.1.2. When the certificate exists on the device, the "Profile" section in "General" settings is visible and gives you the option to delete the Burp CA Certificate. When we have tested this and deleted the CA Certificate, the profile section was no longer viewable. It sounds like you have already removed the CA Certificate from your device. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
