If the US started doing this (scanning phones for islamic terrorism files) to foreigners at the border, would you care? If it was just a scan and no data was harvested?

Unless they are a journalist or something, obviously.
You may not know this, but the Constitution guarantees the same rights to foreigners on US soil as it does to US citizens.

Would you classify the US treatment of Japanese citizens during WW2 as inhumane? Back then, they were called war relocation centers. Right now, we call them concentration camps. Same thing will happen with the current camps, both in the US and China. In both cases, it's only the citizens of those countries that object to the usage of the term "concentration camps", while everyone else classifies them properly. Nobody…
Those Japanese-American detainees had legal residential status when they were illegally rounded up without due process. The detainees in the current border camps have no such status. Some of them are eventually admitted as refugees but there is no obligation to allow any of them to simply enter the country. Presumably they would be permitted to leave the camps if they decided to go to a different country. If not, the…

iOS is probably looked at as well, but has to be done manually since there's no way to just do it with a simple app.
I'd wager that they have a enterprise certificate to sign the iOS app with. Then it's a matter of sending the spy victims to a URL, installing the app and granting access to photos/ location/ whatever.

And what if it was a scene from saw or something?

What I don't understand is why they leave the app installed on the person's phone after the scan if it does not do any further scanning in the background.

It's just pathetic to see this kind of whataboutism keeps coming up on this website. The US and China have very different political systems, the former is democratic republic, the later is authoritarian. It is not a close comparison.
