New Reveil app for TrollStore reincarnates pwn20wnd’s Unveil security analysis & system information app

Some time ago, iOS developer and unc0ver jailbreak lead developer pwn20wnd released an app in the App Store called Unveil that could display device information and check for software modifications on said device.

Unfortunately, Unveil is no longer available on the App Store for users to purchase, so iOS developer 82flex is reincarnating the concept with their own version of the app called Reveil.

While the original Unveil app never received any updates after its release, Reveil will be more actively maintained. The app has been written in Swift, and it can do many of the same things that Unveil could.

According to the depiction page, Reveil can give users the following things:

– State-of-the-art Security Analysis
– Visualizes CPU usage (Total/User/Idle), displays CPU specifications, and average load information.
– Visualizes memory usage, displays memory specifications, and classifies memory allocations.
– Displays system version, BootROM version, kernel version, system uptime, and other kernel information.
– Visualizes storage usage and displays the technical storage usage information.
– Lists mounted file systems and displays detailed statistical information such as type/attributes.
– Visualizes internet usage and attributes internet usage to data sources such as WiFi/Ethernet, Cellular connection, or Personal Hotspot.
– Visualizes and displays internet usage information of numerous data sources.
– Displays available network interfaces (e.g. Wired/Wireless, Cellular connection, Access Point, IPSec tunnel) with detailed statistical information (e.g. MTU, Linespeed, Downloaded bytes, Uploaded bytes).

But as Reveil is a sandboxed app, it doesn’t break any sandboxed rules. That means it’s incapable of providing the following information that users may want:

– CPU frequency
– CPU temperature
– Battery temperature
– Installed applications
– Installed tweaks
– And more…

Reveil isn’t much of a “security” app as it is a device information app, but it can certainly provide some insight into the hardware of your device and whether or not its software has been tampered with. I don’t like to call it a security app because it doesn’t offer any kind of anti-virus or anti-malware properties like true PC security software does. And honestly, Apple would never let such a thing into the App Store because it would require specific entitlements.

One important note here is that Reveil isn’t a simple copy and past job of the original Unveil app. Instead, the developer has created a SwiftUI-based replication of Unveil in what is essentially its own unique app. While the apps are very similar to one another, they are not the same.

You don’t need to be jailbroken to use the Reveil app. It’s being hosted for free in the Havoc repository for all TrollStore users to take advantage of, and it’s also open source on the developer’s GitHub repository.
