For instance, I know that 0x46767f0 belongs to an NSString*, is there any way I can find out what NSString it is to help me find some bugs I'm after?

See Question&Answers more detail:osI believe you're looking for:
info symbol <addresss>
Print the name of a symbol which is stored at the address addr. If no symbol is stored exactly at addr, GDB prints the nearest symbol and an offset from it.
Example:
(gdb) info symbol 0x400225
_start + 5 in section .text of /tmp/a.out
(gdb) info symbol 0x2aaaac2811cf
__read_nocancel + 6 in section .text of /usr/lib64/libc.so.6
