I think I just fixed it. Once I ran brew doctor I saw the below warnings. So after I link it the iproxy command shows the "iproxy LOCAL_TCP_PORT DEVICE_TCP_PORT [UDID] "as mentioned. Now I will check if the initial error “Unable to start iproxy. Is it installed?” remains when I run the code on real device.

Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run brew link on these: libplist libtasn1 libusb libzip usbmuxd

Yeah…finally got solution for this…you need to install libimobiledevice package dependencies first… then it will work 😃 @imurchie thanks for the support !
