app-install

app-installTOOL

Install an .ipa signed for this iPhone over USB (ad hoc, enterprise or development signing)

iOS checks the signature: App Store apps install only from the App Store app (tap Get), and an IPA signed for other devices fails with an error from iOS. MCP: send the signed .ipa bytes as data (base64, up to about 3 MB), never source. Use the REST install endpoint for larger IPAs.

Parameters

data *string

Signed .ipa content as base64 (up to about 3 MB)

lease *string

Lease id exactly as acquire printed it, e.g. "studio:42"

mac?string

Mac slug from list, e.g. "studio". Needed when several Macs are online
