## Usage

To mount the media partition from the device run:
To pair the iPhone device to your computer, plug in your iPhone to your computer, and return to your iPhone. Unlock your iPhone, and when prompted, trust your computer and enter your passcode.

Then, use the following command to pair your device to your computer
```shell
idevice pair
```

To mount the media partition from the device, run the following command:
```shell
ifuse <mountpoint>
```

Example command that allows you to create a related directory and then mount the iPhone's file system to it.
```shell
mkdir ~/temp/iphone

ifuse ~/temp/iphone
```

**HINT:** *If you mount your device as regular user, the system might complain that
the file `/etc/fuse.conf` is not readable. It means you do not belong to the
`fuse` group (see below).*
