Synopsis

idevicedevmodectl COMMAND [Options]

Description

Enable Developer Mode on iOS 16+ devices or print the current status.

Note

Passcode-protected devices will NOT allow enabling of Developer Mode from the command line. It has to be enabled on the device itself under Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Developer Mode. The enable command will try to enable it, and tell you if that's the case. If the menu is not shown, you may use the reveal command to reveal it.
