/Applications/iOS Diagnostics.app
This hidden app was introduced in iOS 4.1. When run, the user is prompted for a ticket number.
It has links to iosdiags.apple.com, which you can go to. It also seemingly submits logs to Apple through https://iosdiags.apple.com/MR3Server/MR3Post. It also has references to "Mobile BehaviorScan" and utilizes the diags://
URL schema. Adding a number to the end (i.e.- diags://1
) causes it to show an agreement.
Its principal class is MobileBehaviorScanAppDelegate.
Localization strings
Extracting its English localization strings yields these:

Based on these strings, it appears to be something like CrashReporter on the Mac, allowing you to submit logs to Apple on-the-go. Interestingly, ticket numbers are used, implying someone at Apple would respond to you regarding the issue.
