Getting Started with Ipaguard

Introduction

iOS hardening is a protection technology that directly targets iOS IPA binary files.
It performs deep obfuscation and encryption on the app executable to prevent reverse engineering and source code restoration.
At the same time, it provides integrity protection to prevent code and resource files from being tampered with.

Core features of Ipaguard:

  • Modifies Macho file binary data, no source code required
  • Cross-technology platform: supports Objective-C, Swift, Cocos2d-x, Unity3D, Quick-Cocos, HTML5, React Native
  • Comprehensive functions:
    • Code obfuscation (classes / methods / variables / parameters)
    • Resource file processing (name modification, compression, watermarking)
    • No source code required — safer
    • Debug information cleaning
    • Instant testing & installation

Code Obfuscation

Ipaguard can obfuscate the following in IPA files:

  • Class names
  • Method names
  • Method parameters
  • Variable names

Steps:

  1. Select the IPA file
  2. From the left menu → Code Module
  3. Configure the classes/methods you want to obfuscate (Objective-C / Swift)

Code Obfuscation

File Obfuscation

Supports name obfuscation for various resource files:

  • Images
  • JS / JSON
  • MP3
  • XIB / SB
  • HTML

After obfuscation, file names become meaningless, greatly increasing the difficulty of cracking.

IPA Re-signing & Installation Testing

Ipaguard provides signing and re-signing functions, available on Windows / macOS / Linux.
After obfuscation, you can directly sign and install the IPA onto test devices to quickly verify the protection effect.
