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

Thank you
