StikDebug is an on-device debugger and JIT (Just-In-Time) enabler for iOS 17.4+ that lets users enable JIT compilation for sideloaded apps directly on their iPhone or iPad without needing a computer. Built in Swift with SwiftUI and powered by the idevice library, it also provides live console logs, process inspection, app expiry tracking, and GPS location simulation.

Use cases

  • enable JIT for sideloaded apps on iOS without a computer
  • debug apps directly on my iPhone or iPad
  • view live console and system logs on device
  • simulate GPS location on iOS
  • inspect and terminate running processes on my iPhone
  • check when sideloaded apps expire and refresh profiles
  • launch any installed app on device

When to choose

  • you need JIT for sideloaded emulators or apps on iOS 17.4+
  • you want on-device debugging without connecting to a Mac or PC
  • you need live device logs, process management, or location simulation in one tool
  • you want a privacy-focused tool with no analytics or accounts

When to avoid

  • you run iOS 17.3 or earlier, which uses different connection protocols
  • you need to debug apps without the get-task-allow entitlement
  • you need a cross-platform desktop debugger rather than an on-device iOS tool
  • you rely on App Store distribution, since it is no longer available there
