Get ipa file in Mac with iTunes 12.7

Question

In my Mac OS, iTunes 12.7 not showing AppStore. Apps tab is missing. How to see Apps tab, how to get ipa file from released game ?

Answer 1

There is now another solution: Apple provides a version of iTunes (12.6.3) which supports new devices such as iPhone 8 and iPhone X which still retains the App Store.

Apple Configurator 2 works well for me, but I’m adding this answer for those who would prefer to use iTunes or can’t use Apple Configurator (Windows users) Source: https://9to5mac.com/2017/10/09/apple-itunes-apps-focused-removed-stopgap/

Edit: You can have iTunes 12.7 and iTunes 12.6.3 installed side-by-side.

Install iTunes 12.6.3 from the links above. Copy the iTunes app and paste it to where you want, rename if necessary. Hold Option and double click iTunes. Create a new library in a separate location. iTunes 12.6.3 and iTunes 12.7 can't use the same library because iTunes 12.7 will update the file and iTunes 12.6.3 won't be able to understand it. Manually download the latest iTunes from Apple's website and run the installer to update your main copy of iTunes. (Optional) Change your iTunes 12.6.3 icon to a different icon to help distinguish between the two. (Right-click, Get Info, drag new icon onto existing icon). Important: You will need to Option-Open each time you switch versions so that you can select the correct library and don't update the older library to 12.7 format.
