Is it possible to automate an app downloaded from the App Store using Appium?

问题

I am trying to automate my company's app, downloaded from App Store, on a real hardware device (iPhone) using Appium.

Looking for help. I have tried:

1. Download appium 12.2
2. installed ios-webkit-remote-debugger
3. Downloaded the app from app store
4. Connected the iPhone with Mac
5. Entered the UDID and BundeID and Forced Device as iPhone and click on Launch.
6. Server started successfully but not able to launch the apium inspector.

回答1:

You are not able to automate a build downloaded from the App Store.

For Instruments/Appium to connect to the application on a real device you need to....

1. Have the .ipa file signed with a "Development" certificate that includes the UDID of the target device

2. You can not use a "Distribution" certificate, which is what all App Store builds are signed with

Source: I spent the last two days on this. I need to update the Appium documentation.
