TL;DR
You can find an installed iOS app’s Bundle ID on iOS 10.2.1 using the Settings app or, for more technical users, through a third-party file manager like Filza.
Finding the Bundle ID
- Using Settings (Easier Method):
- Open Settings on your iOS device.
- Scroll down and tap on the app you want to find the Bundle ID for.
- Look under the App Information section. The Bundle Identifier is listed there. It will look something like
com.example.appname. - Using Filza File Manager (More Technical):
- You’ll need a jailbroken iOS device with Filza installed. If you don’t have it, you will need to jailbreak your device and install Filza from Cydia or Sileo.
- Open Filza File Manager.
- Navigate to
/var/mobile/Applications. - You’ll see a list of folders, each representing an installed app. Each folder name is the app’s Bundle ID. For example, you might see a folder named
com.example.appname.
Alternative Method (If Settings doesn’t show it)
Sometimes, the Settings app may not display the full Bundle Identifier. In this case, Filza is more reliable.
Important Notes
- The Bundle ID is a unique identifier for each application.
- You need to know the app’s name to find it in Settings.
- Filza requires a jailbroken device, which voids your warranty and carries security risks. Use with caution.
