What is Detector?
Detector is a fast tool allowing you to verify if something suspicious is happening on your device. Use this simple app to detect Malware installed on your iPhone or iPad running iOS 9 and never. Michel Barnich created the tool for modern jailbreaks and non-jailbroken devices.
After installing the Malware detection tool, you can access the Detector app from the Home Screen. The tool doesn't offer any option to configure and when you launch it you will see some basic information about the device such as model and iOS version, and start detection button.
Michel Barnich, the developer behind Detector, designed it to keep your device and your Privacy safe from any malware, or otherwise malicious apps. It was created with simplicity in mind, with the one-click Malware Detection, anyone will know if something is wrong with the device.
When you tap on the “Start Detection” button, the tool will immediately display some information about access to the system by sandbox violation, injected Dylib, connected Debugger, fork() succeeded, host file was modified, and possible access to system files.
The Detector app also checks if it can detect installed package managers. With this tool, you can easily find out if your iDevice is jailbroken. But, the main feature of the tool is scanning installed apps for potential malicious components installed with the sideloaded apps.
Note: Green dot displayed next to vulnerability means that everything is fine. Red dot means exactly the opposite and you should be worried. Be aware that if you jailbreak your device for obvious reasons, some detected vulnerability will display a red dot.
Detector uses a database to detect Malware software on your device. This tool will only inform you about potential harming software. It will not remove unwanted malware from your iDevice. This free malware scanner works with iPhones, iPads, and watchOS devices.
