If it sounds like I am defending them, it is only because your response sounded like a snap judgment quick dismissal, which is at odds with my experience with iMazing. But the disclaimer is intended to avoid over-promising. iMazing makes it easy for those known ones.

The spyware detection in iMazing is, at its root, a friendly GUI on top of what are normally complicated and (to beginners) intimidating instructions and steps for how to use programmer utilities and command line tools to locate signature files that spyware has buried deep in the system. If a new threat emerges that is not yet known or documented, it won’t pick that up, of course. When there is a known threat, security professionals note the telltale files they install.
”Known signatures” is the reason the disclaimer talks about those. From the follow-up post by wklee, my guess is now that Pegasus is probably patched by Apple, they now look for other emergent threats with known signatures. Originally, it was primarily built to look for Pegasus. They’re just saying it isn’t a comprehensive scanner. But we're going to sell it anyway, hoping you're paranoid enough to buy the app from us, even though we tell you not to trust it." We've no idea if the result is accurate or not. So that disclaimer means basically: "This app will give you a result. stix files you can test them in iMazing by launching the Spyware detection and you will have the choice to either use the default STIX files or choose some stored on your computer." If you find some, please tell us and we'll add them to iMazing. stix files, for instance there is in our knowledge no public stix file for the Quadream attacks. iMazing needs IOCs (.stix files) to be able to detect attacks. "So iMazing is capable of checking known compromise indicators for Pegasus and Cytrox spywares. IMazing only checks for Pegasus from NSO and Cytrox. They currently don't check for QuaDream spyware.
They use Amnesty International for their spyware feature. This tool does not replace expert assistance." It is especially important for high risk individuals to understand the scope and limitations of iMazing's spyware analyzer so as not to develop a false sense of security – see 1.3 Scope and Limitations below. Please read the documentation carefully before proceeding. Results may be difficult to interpret and may contain false positives. A clean scan does not guarantee that your device is not infected. It can only detect signs of current or past infections by looking for known malicious file names, links, process names and emails. "⚠ Important disclaimer: iMazing cannot prevent spyware infection.

It's a manual scan, there's no auto detect for scanning spyware from iMazing.
