I feel silly for having to ask this. I've got an application to a point where I want to send someone a beta to test on their machine, but I don't know how to get Xcode to produce a .app
file for me to send to them. Help?
Use Product → Archive to create a binary of your app. Then go to the Organizer window and optionally validate it. Lastly, export the app to your desktop so you can distribute it as you wish.
Click Apps icon at the top of the main interface to enter the Apps window, all the apps on the iDevice will be shown by list. b. Check the app(s) which you want to export to the computer, and click Export button at the top menu.
This has changed in Xcode 4.
Now Apps can be exported from the "Organizer"
If you haven't already, you need to create an Archive
.
On the menu go to Product -> Archive
Once you're in the Organizer - Archives
screen click Share
or Distribute...
(Xcode 4.3.3 or newer)
Then choose the format you want to export.
