DTrace (and therefore dtruss too) apparently ported to iOS some time ago, but Apple did not release it outside of its own laboratories. The best link I can dig is a quote from one of the authors of DTrace: https://twitter.com/ahl/status/311866307115098112

Frida , which provides dynamic code coding using the Python API, may be useful. It allows you to enter JavaScript fragments into native applications on iOS (and Windows, Mac, Linux).

There's a good tutorial on using Frida on iOS .

There's also Saurik Cycript , which allows "developers to research and modify running applications on iOS or Mac OS X using the Objective-C ++ hybrid and JavaScript syntax through an interactive console."

And, of course, its Cydia Substrate allows you to change / enter the behavior of iOS applications.
