So my question is: can I directly put my <

Answer 1

You can go to the browser in Iphone/Ipad and type the URl where the IPA has been uploaded and can directly download it to your Iphone or Ipad and install and run it.... simple and sweet ;)

Answer 2

I try to face with these problems and I use : https://www.installonair.com . It's free and not have limit like diawi.

1. You need to add device UDID to apple developer account devices part.
2. Build your project and archieve it ad hoc with your certificate
3. Open that link and upload your ad hoc ipa file to website
4. Get qr code and link to download.

Answer 3

Use iFunBox. It's free, Mac/Win compatible. Just make an ad hoc build and save somewhere. Install from iFunBox. I load all my test ad hoc release builds on my devices for testing before release using this method. Who has time to fiddle around with iTunes?

Answer 4

No need to bother with iTunesConnect for sharing your adhoc builds. Just upload your ipa file to diawi and after successful uploading you will get a link open the link in safari and you will be asked to install app. Tap on install and enjoy

Answer 5

There are four ways, all of which I tested:

• Test flight

• Install from iTunes - Create .ipa as ad-hoc and normal sync with ipad & itunes.

• Or best way you can create a URL for install while creating ipa select as enterprise and create index file with plist. This will work with individual developer account too.

• Diawi

Answer 6

You can also use HockeyApp to distribute your .ipa, it will send a link to the app to the testers, then the tester will be ableto install the ipa directly from their browser on the device once clicking on the link.
