**Static Analysis**

Install the app on the iPhone via the App Store

Pull the `ipa` from the App Store via `AnyTrans` or `iMazing` tools (Apple ID login necessary)

Import the `.ipa` into MobSF and analyze it

Rename the `.ipa` file to `.zip`, unzip it and look at the content

* `iTunesMetadata.plist` - general information, app name, etc
* Open the `.app` and look for the application content
  * `Info.plist` - look for URLs, api keys, IDs, strings etc
  * `.plist`, `.json`, config files
  * `Manifest.plist`

**Dynamic Analysis**

Jailbreak the iPhone, run the app and try to intercept its traffic using a proxy (BurpSuite, Proxyman for MacOS, Zaproxy, etc)

Proceed with SSL Unpinning using `Objection` if necessary

Dynamically test the app by joining an account, signing in and navigating the entire app

* Two accounts to test with are suggested, to test auth tokens, access to the other account, and different parts of the app
