I was getting this error:
Start the target app XXXXX
'unable to launch iOS app: The operation couldn't be completed. Application "" is unknown to FrontBoard.'

I tried the -l and noticed the list was empty (null records returned). Frida (frida-ps -Ua) is showing an empty application list as well.

The solution is to target the process and get the pid that way.

Use frida-ps -U and find the process name, then use device.get_process(target_name) instead.
