I’d like to be able to pass around the version of my iphone application that was compiled for the simulator. The idea here is to be able to give copies of the app to different vms where they would deploy the app to the iOS simulator and run some tests.
But after I compile the app for the iOS simulator, I can’t find the darn *.ipa. Does anyone know where it resides?
There’s no .ipa—Xcode copies the
.appbundle by itself into the simulator. You can check:(swap Debug for Release if you’re looking to distribute a release build, obviously), or, alternately, get the version that’s actually installed in the simulator from:
You can copy that app bundle into another simulator by creating an arbitrarily-named folder in the above
Applicationsdirectory and placing the.appinside it.
