pymobiledevice3 pcap

Sniff device traffic.

pymobiledevice3 pcap [OPTIONS]

Options:

Option Description
--native macOS only: reach the iOS 17+ tunnel by piggybacking Apple's own remoted tunnel via the remotepairingd service. NO root, no entitlement, no Xcode, and remoted is left running (so it coexists with Xcode/devicectl). Rides Apple's kernel-routable tunnel, so throughput matches the kernel tunnel. Mutually exclusive with --rsd/--tunnel/--userspace. [env var: PYMOBILEDEVICE3_NATIVE]
--out <path>
-c, --count <int> Number of packets to sniff. Omit to endless sniff. [default: -1]
--process <str> Process to filter. Omit for all.
-i, --interface <str> Interface name to filter. Omit for all.
--install-completion Install completion for the current shell.
--show-completion Show completion for the current shell, to copy it or customize the installation.

Accepts the connection options: --rsd, --tunnel, --userspace, --mobdev2, --usbmux, --udid.
