Readme
iOS Simulator App Exporter is a script that will help you to list all your simulator devices and their applications, so you can quickly locate and export applications.
My principal motivation behind this was to allow my teammates without the project installed and configured to quickly test multiple iOS devices through simulators without TestFlight and physical devices. I used this to share proofs of concept, design iterations, etc. to teammates from other departments who don't want to deal with build tools to give feedback.
To share an iOS application to physical devices, you will have to generate a .ipa
file, then distribute it with TestFlight or other alternative tools. But, to share an iOS application to simulators, you just have to find the generated .app
on the selected simulator and export it.
Searching for that on Google lead to answers like this:
I am trying to export it and install it to another simulator in other mac?
You can't. That's not how the simulator works. To run the app on another Mac, you need to copy the Xcode project to the other Mac and run that project in Xcode on that other Mac.
But, actually, it works with the simulator too!
