[DEPRECATED] iOS VNC Server

We are no longer maintaining this repository.

This project provides a VNC endpoint which streams the device's screen to your VNC client. Any keyboard and mouse events your VNC client sends will be sent to the iOS device. This does not require the device to be jailbroken.

Setup

  • Clone this repository

  • Install dependencies:

    • brew install libimobiledevice
    • brew install libpng
    • brew install libvncserver
    • brew install carthage
  • Now you can build the project:

    • cd iOSVNCServer && make build

Dependencies

To control the device, you will need to set up WebdriverAgent This project exposes a couple of endpoints to take control of the device. Once you've set this up correctly (signing and ./Scripts/bootstrap.sh), you can run the WebDriverAgent project to expose the endpoint.

Getting Started

The WebDriverAgent project will output a response ServerURLHere->http://[SOME_IP]:8100<-ServerURLHere These values are required and need to be passed to our iosvncserver, together with the udid of the device:

  • To get the udid: idevice_id -l
  • Start a WebDriverAgent session: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d "{\"desiredCapabilities\":{\"bundleId\":\"com.apple.preferences\"}}" \ [SOME_IP]:8100/session
  • Copy the sessionID from this response and pass it to our VNC server:

You can now run the VNC server: ./iosvncserver -u [udid] -H [SOME-IP] -P 8100 -S [session-id]

Point your favorite VNC client to localhost:5901 and you will be able to take control of the real iOS device.
