I'm making a website that offers apk file. Is it possible to install the apk directly to phone from my website when clicking the install button without market like google play?
I already try to make this but once i clicked install button, it only download the file and place to filemanager and did not install. Is it possible? if yes, how can i do that with php? Thanks for the help!
You can Install any android application in your phone, it can be from any e-mail,website or any other medium it doesn't matter.
To Install the outside app you must change the settings first.
Swipe down from the top of the screen and tap the Settings button.
Tap the Security button beneath the Personal subheading.
Scroll down to the Device Administration subheading, tap Unknown Sources, and OK in the following warning pop-up.
Sorry I cant tell you about PHP
I have an IPA signed for ad-hoc distribution. I can install it fine with Flash Builder. I'd like to install a release version via iTunes 12, though. Dragging it onto:
The device name
The app section
The app list
The Home Screens section
...does not work? Does anyone have any idea how to do this with the new iTunes 12?
Note : If you are using iTunes 12.7.0 or above then use Solution 2 else use Solution 1. Solution 1 cannot be used with iTunes 12.7.0 or above since Apps section has been removed from iTunes by Apple
Solution 1 : Using iTunes 12.7 below
Tested on iTunes 12 with Mac OS X (Yosemite) 10.10.3
Also, tested on iTunes 12.3.2.35 with Mac OX X (El Capitan) 10.11.3
This process also applicable for iTunes 12.5.5 with Mac OS X (macOS Sierra) 10.12.3.
You can install IPA file using iTunes 12.x onto device using below steps :
Drag-and-drop IPA file into 'Apps' tab of iTunes BEFORE you connect the device.
Connect your device
Select your device on iTunes
Select 'Apps' tab
Search app that you want to install
Click on 'Install' button. This will change to 'Will Install'
Click on 'Apply' button on right corner. This will initiate process of app installation. You can see status on top of iTunes as well as app on device.
You can allow new apps to install automatically by enabling checkmark present at bottom.
Solution 2 : Using iTunes 12.7 and above
You can use diawi for this purpose.
Open https://www.diawi.com/ in desktop/system browser
Drag-and-drop IPA file in empty window. Make sure that last check mark are unselected (recommended due to security concern)
Once the upload is completed then press Send button
This will generate a link and QR code as well. (You can share this link and QR code with Client)
Now open Safari browser in iPhone device and enter this link (Note that link is case-sensitive) OR You can scan the QR using Bakodo iOS app
Once link is loaded you can see app details
Now select ‘Install application’
This will prompt an alert asking permission for installation. Press on Install.
Now you can see the app installation begins on screen.
iTunes 12.7 ( Xcode needed )
You cannot install a release ipa directly on your device. Ipa generated withAppStore Distribution Profile requires to be distributed from App Store or TestFlight. However, I found that app panel was removed even for installing ad hoc ipa from iTunes 12.7. I found a workaround to install ad-hoc apps which might help to them who cannot install even ad hoc ipa. Please follow the instructions below,
Connect your device
Open Xcode and go to Window -> Devices
Select the connected device from left panel
Brows the IPA from Installed Apps -> + button
Wait few seconds and its done!
From iTunes 12.7 apple removes App Store, So we unable to for find App option
We have another way to install iOS app using iTunes 12.7 as below
1)drag and drop your .app file to iTunes.
2)It will create .ipa file, you can find that at ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications/
3)connect the device you want to install that app.
4)drag .ipa file from finder to iTunes on my Device section as shown in below section.
I don't remember this being very difficult with iTunes 12, but at least for iTunes 12.8 (and likely for the previous couple of minor versions also) it's pretty straightforward even though the Apps button is not there, as demonstrated in the below two steps:
While your device is connected to your laptop/desktop click the device icon on iTunes 12.8:
Drag your .ipa file from Finder or Desktop and drop it into the "On My Device" area.
Wait for the sync to finish and the app is on your device!
For newest iTunes 12.7 and above can easily install IPA by copy and paste
Select and copy your .ipa (cmd+c or ctrl+c)
Connect phone to laptop
Open iTunes and select your device tab on top left of iTunes
Select the music tab
Paste the ipa (cmd+v or ctrl+v) not drag
In my case Drag & Drop didn't work.
I had to first Sync iTunes with the iOS device (Sync button on the bottom right)
I had to add the IPA file through iTunes menu bar: File -> Add to Library...
I had to press the "Install" button for my app in the "Apps" screen
I had to press the "Apply" button on the bottom right
Edit: See Jayprakash Dubey's answer for iTunes 12.7
From the menu shown in the following screenshot, choose Apps. You can drag and drop you IPA file in the next view.
After that, go to your device's page, you'll see the list of apps, install your app and press Apply from the bottom bar.
Tested on iTunes 12.5.3.17
1.Open the iTunes select the “Apps” section with in that select the “Library”
2.Now drag and drop the file AppName.ipa in this Library section (Before connecting your iOS device to your computer machine)
3.Now connect your iOS device to your computer machine, we are able to see our device in iTunes…
4.Select your device go to “Apps” section of your device and search your App in the list of apps with "Install" button infront of it.
5.Now hit the “Install” button and then press the “Done” button in bottom right corner, The “Install” button will turn in to “Will Install” one alert will be shown to you with two options “Don’t Apply”, “Apply”, hit on option “Apply”.
6.The “App installation” will start on your device with progress….
7.Finally the app will be installed on your iOS device and you will be able to use it…
IPA file are generally executable file for iOS app.
Approach used to install IPA in iTunes 12 is different as compared to lower versions.
Simply, add IPA file into iTunes library and search for IPA in apps section of connected device.
Click on install and Apply.
I found a solution for Windows users. All the other solutions i tried didn't work for Windows.
I have been searching about the same problem for a few days. iTunes make obligation to update itself to iTunes newer version for ios 11 phones and iTunes 12.7 version doesn't have apps section so i couldn't download anymore my ad hoc app ipa file and provision files to iPhone.
I just found out that there is an iTunes version (12.6.3) Apple published which won’t be prompted to download new versions of iTunes and you can use this version to download your app. You can dowload it from this link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208079
Apple say if you have a newer version of iTunes you can just download this one over it but I couldn't do it like this. First, I removed iTunes from my computer, then I removed the iTunes folder from my musics folder (you probably don't need to do that) and I downloaded iTunes for 64 bit PC from the link I wrote above. And with this iTunes i can use Apps section again and it doesn't force me to update it. So it works like the good old times.
For iTunes 12.9.5.5 and above you can install the apps by Copying the IPA file and Paste it (Cmd+V or Edit -> Paste in iTunes) in any categories as Music/Films/TV Programmes etc. The app will be installed automatically on your iPhone screen.
Tested on 29 Nov 2019.
Demo:
Since iTunes 12.7 doesn't have "Application" section so it can't be done.
As a workaround I've found this answer.
I simply installed "Apple Configurator 2". Than:
Run application
Connect device
Unlock device
Drag IPA file to visualisation of device in "Apple Configurator 2"
Confirm action
I didn't had to "sign in" as described in on linked question answers
For iTunes 12.7.0 and above, you just need to Cmd+c your app and Cmd+v into your device on iTunes. Any tab works, including Summary, Music, Movies.
For the macOS Catalina 10.15.3 and onwards iTunes is no longer present in the system. all iTunes contents are added in Finder itself. So instead, open the Music app and drag-drop IPA as mentioned below.
installation itunes music ipa
Do not use any service similar to https://www.diawi.com/ as it can potentially have huge security implications. Using this kind of process and with some clever coding skills, a third party can inject extra stuff in you application. And they are basically charging you for something that you can do yourself.
In iTunes 12.7.x, it is still possible to install an ipa directly on a device with a simple drag-n-drop. Look at #ganesh ubale' solution here or the other answers at https://stackoverflow.com/a/46520816/609862 or https://stackoverflow.com/a/46229114/609862.
The Apple developer web site also have detailed information about how to configure a web site for installing an IPA wirelessly (by simply sharing the download link).
I just reset the device (erase all settings) and sync up with iTunes and now I can drag the app over to the phone library on iTunes (even though there is no apps tab). Once you sync. the app is then on the phone.
I just downloaded XCode_6_beta_6.dmg from the official apple website. However, when prompted to drag the installation to the application folder, it just unarchived the installation but does not install XCode_6_beta_6. When i try to open xcode_6_beta_6 from the applications folder, the new xcode6 beta icon just keeps popping in the application dock and does nothing. How do i overcome this situation so that the new xcode6 beta is installed on my machine?
For some weird reason, apple does not trust this installation and hence does not continue.
Please follow the below instructions to continue with the installation.
Open System Preferences
Open Security and Privacy
Unlock the settings screen if it is not already unlocked.
select "Anywhere" from the "Allow apps downloaded from:" section.
lock and close the preferences screen.
Your installation shall start in a moment!!
Also happened to me. Used Deepak's fix but had an additional strange problem where the Icon would still stay bouncing in the dock. Be patient & wait (for me it took a good 10 minutes!) for a dialogue box to eventually appear saying 'This is an application downloaded from the internet, do you want to open?' Obviously click 'Open'. Odd, considering it's Apple's own app.
I have just bought an iPhone 4 for development.
Unfortunately, I forgot to register my phone to my development account before I tried installing the iOS 4.3 beta 2 software.
Now I can't restore my iPhone because I haven't got my UDID in my developer account, and I cannot get the UDID in iTunes because my phone is stuck in recovery mode.
Does anyone know how to restore my phone, or how to get the UDID into the developer account so it can be restored?
Thank you
Try this online service — http://get.udid.io
You should open the site on your mobile, tap the button and follow instructions, I've been described in my blog. It's easy as taping "Next" every time. Hope it helps.
You should be able to just click "Restore" in recovery mode in iTunes and it'll restore the current 4.2.1 firmware.
Perhaps you need to put it in DFU mode first.
Can't you downgrade the firmware by downloading the older version from the internet and hold shift and click restore and select the firmware file?
I have XCode 3.2.2 and am trying to build an app to my jailbroken iPad. I have followed the tutorial to Fake Code Sign Apps here on Multi-Touch forums. On the iPad, I installed AppSync. Still, when I tried to build my app, I got
Error Starting Executable
No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected.
I think next, I'll try Cydia's tutorial....which probably woulda made sense to do first anyway. I'll post progress here. But in the meanwhile, any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!

OK so clearly, I'm just an idiot. I'm using XCode 3.2.2, which only supports iPad 3.2. My iPad has 3.2.1 installed. Updating my XCode will probably fix this (non) issue lol.
There are three ways to do this:
Self-Signing (from Xcode)
Pseudo-Signing (from device)
Disable Signing
All are detailed and explained here on Saurik's site.
I went with self-signing. Here's the process for those interested.
Self-Signing
Edit Info.plist file
Located at /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/.
Find three occurrences of "XCiPhoneOSCodeSignContext" and replace with "XCCodeSignContext"
Create certificate.
Open Keychain Access >> Click Keychain Access >> Certificate Assistant >> Create a Certificate
give it any name
Self-signed Root
Change type to "Code Signing"
Check "Override defaults"
Click "Continue" until done
Build the app in Xcode.
Edit Project Settings >> Set "Code Signing Identity" to the name of the certificate you just created.
Select the device you want to build to from the dropdown menu (not simulator)
Cmd + B to build
Copy to Device
Get the .app file from the build directory (/build/Debug-iphoneos/AppName.app)
SSH the file over to /Applications directory on the device
Respring/ reboot
In xcode's menu bar, go to windows->organizer. I don't remember exactly what it looks like, but once you plug in an ios device (aka the iPad) it should appear under devices on the left hand side. Click on it, and it will take you to a screen with 2 or so buttons on it, one of which will be 'use for development', or something like that. Clicking this will provision the iPad for development, and everything should work fine after that. Repeat for all other ipads/phones/touches.
