Is there a way to get an iOS device battery level from terminal when it's plugged into the computer? I've looked into ioreg and that only displays my macbook's battery.

I was able to get this information as recently as macOS 10.14.1 using the libimobiledevice formula from Homebrew. You need to use the most recent version of the library, hence the --HEAD appended to the install command:

$ brew install --HEAD libimobiledevice

After that, try these commands:

$ idevice_id --list

<UDID>



$ ideviceinfo -u <UDID> --simple

DeviceName: foo's phone

HardwareModel: D22AP

ProductName: iPhone OS

ProductType: iPhone10,3

ProductVersion: 12.0



$ ideviceinfo -u <UDID> --domain com.apple.mobile.battery

BatteryCurrentCapacity: 43

BatteryIsCharging: true

ExternalChargeCapable: true

ExternalConnected: true

FullyCharged: false

GasGaugeCapability: true

HasBattery: true

More information is available. Try ideviceinfo --help to list the additional domains you can query.

You can use the command "cfgutil get batteryCurrentCapacity", you can get cfgutil by installing the command line tools for Apple Configurator.

This doesn't work unless the phone is physically connected via USB unfortunately. Also, the command takes a long time to complete (about 6 seconds on my system). I know this information is exposed somehow via WiFi (iTunes Sync protocol) because it shows up in coconutBattery. Anyone know how this is done?
