how to convert ipa to app?
@darrellbear112 change the extension to .zip and unzip it. you will find Payload/YOUR_APP_NAME.app
Can you explain the difference between exporting build from organizer and using this method?
Very interesting
What is the .app folder?
Hero

can it be installed on iphone? and
then how to install .ipa to iphone?
mkdir Payload?? is it actually Payload name?
I made an easy-to-use windows tool for this purpose, you can check it out here: apptoipa-converter.
Would you do this on a mac? Or on a different device?
mkdir -p ios/iphoneos/Payload
mv ios/iphoneos/youe_app_name.app ios/iphoneos/Payload
cd ios/iphoneos
zip -r app.ipa Payload
rm -rf Payload
rename youe_app_name
If you're on windows, you can use this program I made a long time ago. http://fumacrom.com/3hfQl
Looks like this doesn't deal with the required info.plist in an IPA.
Thank you

It may be more beneficial to elaborate on this, eg. Commands and directories and examples.
