Hello rodydavis how do you convert the Runner.app generated by flutter build ios --release --no-codesign into a Runner.ipa ?

Same question, I think we do need to use fastlane for code signing

yeah, i had to use fastlane, i was able to convert the Runner.app to .ipa but fastlane is a best approach

@RodrigoPorras any tutorial on how to do that?

@RodrigoPorras any tutorial on how to do that?

Hello @Saifallak. I have some messy files, no exactly a tutorial.

how do we config flutter version?

edit:
just edited instead of deleting incase someone needs it in future. found that it can be found here https://github.com/subosito/flutter-action

Had the same issue with the iPA generation. Fortunately, i found this article that described the steps to generate the iPA very well: https://damienaicheh.github.io/flutter/github/actions/2021/04/22/build-sign-flutter-ios-github-actions-en.html
