Viewing Keychain content in iOS simulator #134

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is it possible to see the Keychain file when using it with a simulator?

Hi, sorry what do you mean by 'Keychain file'?

crhee94 commented 4 years ago

Hello! After storing some values into the Keychain, I want to see the content in the Keychain (which I believe is a db file?) by accessing the iOS simulator folders.

Edit: From what I've seen from other resources, they say to navigate to the devices folder and find the UUID of the simulator and I should find a "Keychain" folder, but I haven't been able to do so.

I have no idea, sorry, I've never had a need to access a raw keychain file. I suspect it should be encrypted anyway (this is the whole point of Keychain), so what's the point? :)

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41862997/ios-simulator-view-content-of-keychain This was something that I was hoping to do. Just checking that the helper functions are putting in the values into the keychain db when using the simulator.

Thank you for replying!

Ok, fair enough, good luck with your research. :)

yes, you can poke around in the keychain database and see if your simulator run is in fact writing values to it https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41862997/ios-simulator-view-content-of-keychain

@oriyentel Hi Josh, I saw that post too! However, for some reason, I am not able to find the Keychain folder after navigating to the correct simulator folder... Do you happened to know what the issue is?
