Description
This is a feature of Xcode where you can enable wireless debugger to a device on the network. This would give a solution to use jit on the network if you're home. Ideally you wouldn't need to have to use such a thing for a android device but Apple doesn't allow jit for the life of them. It's possible with libimobiledevice according to its documentation.
Adding this feature is pretty simple idea. But there's also a still a problem of on windows 10 altserver crashes after a certain amount of time and also it would crash if it fails a few times.
Doing this jit solution would help make a path for a future where you have a raspberry pi and you connect to its WiFi connection and able to sign and do jit or tethered signing and jit on any version of iOS that supports wireless debugging.
