A macOS GUI application for viewing and exploring Mach-O binary files, revived as a maintained fork with a universal x86_64/arm64 build. It parses Mach-O headers, load commands, and related structures for binary analysis.

Use cases

  • inspect mach-o binary structure on mac
  • view load commands in an ios binary
  • analyze a mach-o executable header
  • reverse engineer an apple silicon binary
  • explore objective-c metadata in a mach-o file
  • debug malformed mach-o parsing

When to choose

  • you need a visual GUI explorer for Mach-O binaries on macOS
  • you work with Apple Silicon or iOS binaries and need arm64 support
  • you want a free open-source alternative to paid Mach-O inspection tools

When to avoid

  • you need a scriptable or library-based Mach-O parser (consider go-macho or LIEF)
  • you need a cross-platform tool on Linux or Windows
  • you require fully hardened parsing of hostile binaries, which the author notes is still a work in progress
