Tested on: iOS 27.0.1 (iPhone 17 Pro Max). Other iOS 27 versions are untested.
Needs: a sideloading tool that keeps the App Group entitlement. If the Log says "No App Group", re-sign with one that does.

Worse Query Files 0.1

First release of WQ Files, a file browser, app data manager and cache cleaner for iOS 27. No jailbreak and no kernel exploit: it uses the worse_query sandbox technique ("WQ").

What it does

  • Browse every app's data container, app groups, extension and daemon containers, system groups and System Data, with real app names and icons.
  • Apps: back up, restore and clear an app's data, or share a backup as a ZIP over AirDrop.
  • Cache Cleaner: cache and temp size per app, Select Large Caches (50 MB+), crash logs, long-press to jump to an app's caches or tmp folder.
  • Edit text and plist files in place, import files, rename, delete. Overwritten and deleted files are backed up first and can be restored.

Be careful

Editing other apps' or system files can break them. Clearing data and cleaning caches cannot be undone without a backup, so back up first.
