Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a free forensic tool that can analyze a physical image in APFS format from a 5th generation iPad. I tried using Autopsy, but it throws an error when I try to load the image—it seems like it might not recognize APFS properly.

To acquire the disk image, I connected to a jailbroken iPad 5 from another Linux machine over SSH and used the dd command to copy rdisk1 to the Linux system. As far as I understand, rdisk1 represents the physical image of the iPad. The resulting file is about 30GB, and the file command identifies it as APFS, so I believe the image acquisition was successful.

Now I’m trying to find a tool that can actually parse or analyze this image. Ideally, I’m looking for something that’s good at carving files too. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
