For the latest, full-featured Code Analyzer experience, download Code Analyzer from the Mac App Store. Code Analyzer turns opaque software into a workspace you can navigate. Analyze APK, JAR, and JMOD archives, inspect Mach-O and ELF binaries and font files, and move naturally from package structure to readable code, functions, symbols, assembly, and raw bytes. Code Analyzer combines an APK analyzer, JAR/JMOD decompiler, native disassembler, font glyph viewer, bytecode viewer, and hex viewer in one focused iPhone and iPad workspace. There is no command-line setup and nothing to upload. PACKAGE AND BYTECODE ANALYSIS • Open APK packages and browse files, compiled classes, decoded resources, and manifest data • Decompile supported class files from JAR and JMOD archives into readable high-level output • Fall back to low-level bytecode automatically when a higher-level result is unavailable • Follow nested ZIP, APK, and JAR containers in place without manually unpacking them NATIVE BINARY ANALYSIS • Inspect Mach-O universal binaries, dynamic libraries, application bundles, and frameworks • Explore ELF executables and shared libraries across multiple CPU architectures • Browse architecture slices, headers, segments, sections, symbols, and discovered functions • Explore ELF and Mach-O machine code in a continuous, architecture-aware disassembly view • Jump directly to discovered functions and symbols, including useful results from stripped binaries FIND THE SIGNAL • Open TrueType, OpenType, and font collections in a searchable glyph viewer with metadata and outline inspection • Use Quick Open to find files, classes, methods, resources, and symbols with responsive fuzzy matching • Filter Project Explorer by filename to find files quickly • Search raw data as text or hex and step through every match • Jump to decimal or hexadecimal offsets without losing context • Copy any byte selection as hex, text, or Base64 • Keep syntax highlighting and symbol outlines beside the content you are reading ANALYZE ON THE GO • Native SwiftUI interface adapted for iPhone and iPad • Responsive background processing for large, multi-part files • Runs entirely offline, so your files stay on your device Built for developers, security professionals, and students who need clear answers from software they are authorized to inspect.

Simple Server is a small web server in your pocket. - Share your folders/files from your iPhone/iPad to other devices in the same local network. - Browse your shared folders and files via browsers easily. - Manage your folders/files on your iPhone/iPad via browsers. - Set a username/password for sharing/managing files. - Support Access Logs displaying HTTP method, URL, remote IP address, and access time of requests and responses. - On iPad, you can preview your static HTML files in Safari with Split View while the web server runs on the same iPad. Two steps to share your folder: 1. In the app, tap "Select folder" and select a folder to be shared. You can choose a folder on your device or iCloud. 2. Tap the "Start Server" button. It's done! Then, connect to the address in a browser on any device in the same network. (e.g., A device that uses the same WiFi router.) Also, you can allow remote users can manage folders and files if you want. Caution: - Simple HTTP Server should be running in the foreground. It cannot be run in the background. If you change to another app or turn off the screen, the web server will stop. - On iPad, you can browse files/folders via Safari with running the web server on the same device, thanks to multitasking. - However, if you switch to another app on your iPhone, the web server will stop. The server status will be automatically recovered when you return to the app. On iPhone, browsing files from other devices is only meaningful. - It works only in a local WiFi network or local wired network. You cannot connect to the web server via a cellular network.

Verdict

The call
