How to get WiFi IP? about libimobiledevice

@juhlila If your iOS device is in the same local network as your computer (connected to the same Wi-Fi or iOS device is connected to your Mac's shared network as example) then device name (returned by 'ideviceinfo -k DeviceName' command or in device's Settings->General->About) is resolved to ip. Resolving can be done by 'nslookup $(ideviceinfo -k DeviceName)' command (as example). Device name must contain only characters that are correct for url ('my-i-device' as example).

No, you just used the device name and construct a host name from it (as used by Bonjour).
Then you can resolve that to an IP.

@FunkyM and how to do that?

If the device and the pc are not in the same network, is there a way to find the IP address?

if it has unicode characters, how could i use it to lookup? url-encoding does not work
