Description
This library enables you to simulate touch events on iOS 11.0 - 14 with just one line of code! Currently, the repository is mainly for programmers. In the future, I will make it suitable for people who do not understand how to code.
Notice
I am a Computer Science student in University of Pittsburgh, and my spring 2021 term has started. My workload for this semester is pretty heavy. Although this semester is extremely boring because I didn't enroll in any of the CS courses this semester, I still have to focus on studying. So, I have to reduce the amount of time spending on updating ZXTouch. But I will still update it when I am free.
Features
- Touch Simulation
- Multitouch supported (no other library you can find supports multi touching).
- Programmable. Control scripts can be programmed with all the programming languages you desire.
- Instant controlling supported. The ios device can be controlled with no latency from other devices/computers.
- System-level touch simulation (will not inject to any process).
- Touch recording. Record your touch event and play back.
- GUI Application
- Others
- Application running.
- System wide alert box displaying.
- Shell accessing.
- Color picker. Get the color of a specified pixel.
- Image matching.
- Device information
- Battery information
- Toast
- Activator support
- OCR
- Touch indicator

Installation
Through Cydia:
- Open Cydia - Sources - Edit - Add - https://zxtouch.net (backup server: http://47.114.83.227 ("http" instead of "https"!!! Please double check this.))
- Install "ZXTouch" tweak
- Done
Through Github:
- Download com.zjx.ioscontrol_0.0.6_iphoneos-arm.deb from release
- Copy the deb file to your iOS device
- SSH to your iOS device and install the deb file by typing "dpkg -i /PATH/TO/om.zjx.pccontrol_0.0.2_iphoneos-arm.deb"
Demo Usage
Remote Controlling: You can control your iOS device from local scripts, computers, or even other iOS devices!
Instant Controlling: Here is a demo of PUBG Mobile.
Recording & Playback: Record touch events and playback
Demo #4: Activator Support
Demo #5: OCR
Demo #6: Touch Indicator
Demo #7: Text Input
Demo #8: Color Picker
Usage
See python version of documentation below. But you can also use ANY language to control your iOS device as long as the language supports socket. Here is how it works:
-
After installation, the tweak starts listening at port 6000.
-
To control your device, send data in certain format to port 6000 on your device. I will not list the detail format of data here, but you can read my python module source code to figure it out.
Documentation (Python)
Installation
-
On Your iOS Device: ZXTouch python module will be automatically installed on your iOS device.
-
On Computers: If you want to install ZXTouch python module on your computer for remote controlling, download the source code from github and copy the zxtouch folder to your "site-packages" folder of your python on your computer.
Create A ZXTouch Instance
To create a instance, use zxtouch(ip) where ip is the ip address of your device. If you want to run the script locally on your iOS device, just input "127.0.0.1".
from zxtouch.client import zxtouch # import module
device = zxtouch("127.0.0.1") # create instance
Instance Methods

Touch:
There are two methods you can use to send touch events.
For a single touch event:
def touch(type, finger_index, x, y):
"""Perform a touch event
Args:
type: touch event type. For touch event types, please insert "from zxtouch.touchtypes import *" at top of your script.
finger_index: the finger index of the touch event. The range should be 1-19
x: x coordinate of the screen
y: y coordinate of the screen
Returns:
None
"""
For sending multiple touch events at the same time:
def touch_with_list(self, touch_list: list):
"""Perform touch events with a list of events
touch list should be type of list. Inside the list, there must be dictionaries with the following format
Args:
touch_list: format example: [{"type": ?, "finger_index": ?, "x": ?, "y": ?}]
Returns:
None
"""
