I would like to see what kinds of data I can get and send to another device. If my computer and phone are connected to the same WiFi network, how can i find information about my phone, for example what webpages I am using on my phone | [reply] |
To do that, you would need to install an app on your phone which can listen to requests for information from your computer. And you would need to grant that app permission to view your browsing history. (Like how apps request permission to access your location data.) The bad news is, as far as I can tell, iOS doesn't even have a way for apps to request permission to view the browsing history.
If you want to be able to, say, keep a log of your phone's browsing history, a better option might be to install an HTTP proxy on your computer, and configure the browser on your phone to route all requests via that proxy. Given how much of the web uses HTTPS now, this is probably of limited value though.

If your iPhone is stock (not jail broken) I think your options are limited, the Apple walled garden business model and all that. I know that people have written scripts to access iPhone data from the iTunes backups (example sms-backups-iphone.pl). You can get Open_Sound_Control apps for the iOS, cpan has some OSC modules you could use if you were interested in that sort of thing.
