Open and preview the raw content of any file instantly, even files the operating system can't open on its own. Before you open a suspicious email or file, you can safely look inside it with Open Any File. You can do it in three ways: ① Tap the large button and choose any file from the document picker. ② In another app, tap Share, then select Open Any File from the Share Sheet to preview the selected file here. ③ Drag a file from the Files app, Mail, or another app and drop it onto the large button. The app preview video shows how it works: an email is dragged straight from Mail and dropped onto the large button, and its raw content opens right away.

About

OSINT Toolbox

Features
Read full description

From the developer of the award-winning Network Toolbox comes a new standard for open-source intelligence on Apple platforms. OSINT — Open-Source Intelligence — is the practice of gathering and analysing information from publicly available sources: domain registrations, DNS records, IP reputation databases, breach data, certificate logs, and more. OSINT Toolbox makes these capabilities available natively on iPhone, iPad, and Mac — with no accounts, no data collection, and no active probing of target systems. REPLACE A DOZEN BROWSER TABS WITH ONE APP Security researchers, journalists, IT professionals, and privacy-conscious investigators have long relied on a patchwork of web tools — each requiring a separate account, each handling your data differently, many operating opaquely. OSINT Toolbox consolidates the most important of these into a single, transparent, and consistent interface that works the same on every Apple device. INTELLIGENCE MODULES Enter any indicator — domain, IP address, email address, URL, file hash, ASN, phone number, username, or company name — and OSINT Toolbox automatically runs every relevant module in parallel. Results stream in live. Discovered entities can pivot automatically into new investigation threads. Built-in intelligence sources include: • DNS resolution and reverse DNS • RDAP and WHOIS registration data • Certificate transparency logs • VirusTotal, Shodan, AbuseIPDB, GreyNoise • HaveIBeenPwned, ThreatFox, MalwareBazaar • Gravatar, LinkedIn, social account presence • BGP routing, ASN info, IP geolocation • And more — with new modules added regularly Bring your own API keys for services that support it. Free modules work without any key at all. APPLE INTELLIGENCE BUILT IN OSINT Toolbox integrates Apple's on-device AI so you can describe an investigation in plain language — no need to know which modules to pick or how to format the input. Just type what you're looking for: "Check if cloudflare.com has been flagged for malware and show its DNS records and registration details" The app understands your intent, selects the right indicator type, and activates the relevant modules — entirely on-device, privately, with no data sent to any cloud service. The feature is optional and requires a device with Apple Intelligence enabled. INVESTIGATION UTILITIES A growing catalog of standalone utilities covers hashing, encoding, network calculations, DNS lookups, IP geolocation, certificate inspection, JWT decoding, CIDR calculation, URL analysis, mail header analysis, and more — all available offline, all on-device. PRIVACY BY DESIGN OSINT Toolbox is built on a strict principle: your investigation data belongs to you. • No account required • Passive only — never touches target infrastructure; queries public APIs and open data sources only • No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting to third parties • App Store privacy label: Data Not Collected • API keys stored exclusively in iCloud Keychain — never logged, never exported, never sent anywhere except the one service they authenticate against • All DNS queries routed through DNS-over-HTTPS • Indicator values never written to logs • No third-party SDKs or libraries of any kind NATIVE. EVERYWHERE. OSINT Toolbox is a Universal Purchase — buy once, use on all your iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. Written entirely in Swift 6 with SwiftUI. No Electron shell. No web wrapper. No third-party frameworks. Just native Apple technology, done properly. Scan results, investigation notebooks, and settings sync automatically across all your devices via iCloud. API keys sync securely via iCloud Keychain.
