Question

We’re trying out a new way of specifying version numbers for our app. I’d like to be able to check that the IPAs we’re building have the version numbers we want. How do I get the version number out of the IPA?

Note – I’m not asking for a way of finding it from code inside the app; I’ve got a terminal open and the IPA file is built, and I want to know what to look for inside the IPA file.

Answer 1

Do the below from your terminal

    //Unzip the file 
    unzip YourIPAFile.ipa

    //Open payload folder
    cd Payload

    //Open your .app file
    cd yourApp.app

    //Open the plist file
    open Info.plist

You can find the version under Bundle version key
