What methods can be used to detect memory leaks in an application?

To detect memory leaks in an iOS application, the following methods can be used:

• Instruments (Leaks and Allocations): a built-in Xcode profiling tool for memory. It helps identify objects that are not released.
• Xcode Memory Graph Debugger: visualizes the object graph in memory, helping to find cyclic references and retained objects.
• Static code analysis: Xcode warns about potential memory issues, such as retain cycles.
• Logging and testing: manually track the creation and destruction of objects to ensure they are released.

Using these tools, you can effectively find and fix memory leaks.
