IOS-Diagnostics.png

This (hidden) application is an iOS version of an internal Apple OS X application named "Behavior Scan", used at the Genius Bar to detect and test different aspects of the device. The iOS version was added so that users could be better helped over the phone instead of making them come in to an Apple Store for support.

It sends data about the device to https://iosdiags.apple.com/MR3Server/MR3Post. The URL schema that it utilizes is diags://<ticket number>, where <ticket number> is the support ticket number given to them by Apple over the phone to allow them to send their device's data over to Apple.
