## What it is
A Python/JavaScript CLI tool that wraps Frida to make it easy to trace classes and functions, hook methods, and modify return values on iOS apps. It bundles ready-made scripts for tasks like jailbreak detection bypass, SSL pinning bypass, and decrypting IPA dumps.

## Use cases
- trace objective-c classes and methods in an ios app
- bypass jailbreak detection in an ios application
- bypass ssl pinning to intercept https traffic
- modify return values of ios methods at runtime
- dump a decrypted ipa from a jailbroken device
- intercept crypto and url requests in ios apps
- list installed apps and frida devices on an iphone

## When to choose
- you do dynamic analysis or pentesting of iOS apps with Frida and want prebuilt hook scripts
- you need quick jailbreak or SSL pinning bypasses without writing Frida scripts from scratch
- you want a CLI wrapper to spawn/attach Frida scripts to iOS processes

## When to avoid
- you target Android or other platforms (use frida-android-hook instead)
- you need a GUI-based reverse engineering tool rather than a CLI
- you work on Windows, which is explicitly unsupported/unstable

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: reverse-engineering, penetration-testing, security, developer-tools
- domain: security, reverse-engineering, penetration-testing, mobile-development
