radare2

[XVilka]

It's strange, IMHO, you've mentioned Hopper, but not a slightest word about radare2 :(
And its iOS support is constantly improving, including debugging capabilities: http://radare.today/posts/radare-0-10-0/

@XVilka I think I've totally missed this tool. Will take a look later and get back to you if I have any questions. Thanks for the tips ;)

@XVilka Just installed radare2 and took a little peek at it, seems to be really powerful. Will take a look at it when the Chinese Spring festival comes. Can you suggest any tutorial to follow?

[XVilka]

@iosre there are:

1. a book https://radare.gitbooks.io/radare2book/content/
2. a training https://github.com/XVilka/hacklu - see pdf in the repository
3. a blog http://radare.today/
4. and of course an embedded help - "?" and add it to any command to get some help

And last advice - since r2 is very fluent, sleek and actively developed moving target, better to use it from git.

@XVilka seems the author of radare2 wants the users to reverse right inside Terminal, and all operations are a little bit more complicated than Hopper. Anything more powerful than Hopper?

It works.
And it's open-sauce.

You can batch analysis and patching with r2 more easily than in a graphical application, commandline have lot of benefits compared to the GUIs, but it requires some time to get used, anyway, r2 have web interfaces that are wip but easy to improve, i personally prefer to use the shell than clicking stuff in a window.

If you have any specific need for iOS to be supported in r2 just let me know in the github issues page. Everything can be improved. ANd yes, there are native GUIs, i wrote two closed source ones, but as long as nobody cared at all ive never released them. writing guis is boring, users tend to complain about silly issues and are harder to distribute/deploy/maintain, when the real interest of the tool is in the core APIs, commandline interface and scripting.
