An iOS library by Facebook that provides in-app memory profiling tools, letting developers browse objects in memory over time using FBAllocationTracker and detect retain cycles with FBRetainCycleDetector. It presents a floating button UI that opens a full-screen profiler with generation tracking and plugin support.

Use cases

  • profile memory usage in an iOS app
  • find retain cycles causing memory leaks
  • browse objects in memory over time
  • track allocations between generations
  • debug memory leaks in Objective-C apps
  • clean caches automatically when memory grows

When to avoid

  • you need profiling for Swift-only projects with modern tooling like Instruments or Xcode memory graph
  • you need an actively maintained tool - the repo is archived
  • you target Android or non-Apple platforms
