From the developer:
AdiOS detects apps that access your entire address book, by using a binary grep to look for use of the ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople API call. AdiOS quickly and easily finds all the apps that have the potential to violate your privacy.
It could also be used to see if your apps are complying with the new policies Apple is rolling out around protection of Address book information.
