How to load apps for testing on iOS through iTunes 12.7

Hello!

With the recent announcement of iTunes 12.7 removing functionality for syncing of apps, I was wondering how one now can test an ipa on an iOS device. Does iTunes 12.7 still allow one to put an app in the Library and transfer it to the iOS device? I am very reluctant to update iTunes until I know how I can continue to test my apps.

Thanks!

There are some third party apps like the one mentioned above that you can use. If you have a Mac, you can use Xcode to do it in the devices window. I just did a Google search for iTunes 12.6.2 download and re-installed that.

You may want to try iFunbox | the File and App Management Tool for iPhone, iPad & iPod Touch. It is pretty straightforward to install IPAs on a device.

Hello,

I am also facing the similar situation, did Apple have changed app installation procedure, in the process of app tab removal from iTunes?

And what are new ways for app developers to install and debug apps on iOS, except xCode?

Thanks,
