About Panoptes -- App Privacy
Panoptes helps you understand your iPhone and iPad's built-in **App Privacy Report**. Apple records which apps access sensitive resources and which domains they contact — but it's buried in Settings and hard to read. Export it, open it in Panoptes, and see the whole picture. WHAT YOU GET * A clear summary of every app: the resources it used (location, microphone, camera, contacts, photos) and the domains it contacted. * Highlights worth a second look — known tracker and ad-SDK domains, and direct connections to raw IP addresses in overseas cloud ranges that skip DNS. * Week-over-week changes: newly seen apps, new domains, and jumps in activity compared with your previous report. * A per-app breakdown with domains, owners, and how often each was contacted. STAY IN CONTROL * Mark findings as resolved or accepted, with a note — they stay out of your way on future imports. * Keep a "trusted" list for your own apps and expected behavior. * Export a summary as PDF or CSV. PRIVATE BY DESIGN * Everything is analyzed on your device. There's no account and no sign-up, and Panoptes has no server of its own. * Panoptes can't read the App Privacy Report directly (no app can) — you export it yourself and import the file. New to it? Tap "Try a sample report" on the first screen to explore Panoptes with example data before importing your own. PANOPTES PRO (one-time purchase, no subscription) * Unlimited reports (the free version keeps your 3 most recent). * Multiple devices — track each iPhone and iPad separately. * iCloud Sync — your reports and findings on all your devices, through your own private iCloud. Nothing is stored on our servers.
What’s new
Version 1.3 · Updated September 3, 2026
Findings now come with dates and evidence. Every finding says when it was first seen, when it was last seen, and how many of your reports raised it — so you can tell a one-off from something that has been going on for months. Anything the newest report raised for the first time is marked New, on the app's page and on the dashboard. “New domains since last report” now lists the domains, and tags them in the app's domain list, instead of leaving you to work out which ones it meant. Permission findings say when and for how long: an app that held the microphone for nine hours in one session reads very differently from one that used it nine times. The resource list on each app's page shows the same detail. An app with nothing flagged now says so, rather than showing a page with no findings section at all. You can also rate Panoptes from Settings, and the App Store's rating prompt appears once after you've imported a few reports — never during an import.
