To distribute your app over-the-air (OTA, this means withoutusing TestFlight or the official App Store), you may need to create 3 different files, namely:

要通过无线方式分发您的应用程序（OTA，这意味着不使用 TestFlight 或官方 App Store），您可能需要创建 3 个不同的文件，即：

• The .ipa file (using an ad-hoc provisioning profile)
• index.html
• manifest.plist

• .ipa 文件（使用临时配置文件）
• 索引.html
• 清单文件

You can use Beta Builderto generate these files:

您可以使用Beta Builder生成这些文件：

1. Archive your build.
2. Save the .ipa on the Desktop.
3. Download a small utility Beta Builderfrom here. This does most of the required task.
4. Open the tool and select your .ipa file, then provide the path you will be placing the build on https://myWeb.com/MY_TEST_APPin the beta builder.
5. Generate all the files.
6. Now upload index.html, your_App.ipa, & manifest.plistto your server path https://myWeb.com/MY_TEST_APP
7. Now share the link of index.html. Once you open this file, you will be asked to Tap on install.
8. It will install your_App.ipaon your device.

1. 归档您的构建。
2. 将 .ipa 保存在桌面上。
3. 从这里下载一个小实用程序Beta Builder。这完成了大部分必需的任务。
4. 打开该工具并选择您的 .ipa 文件，然后提供您将https://myWeb.com/MY_TEST_APP在 beta 构建器中放置构建的路径。
5. 生成所有文件。
6. 现在将index.html, your_App.ipa, &上传manifest.plist到您的服务器路径https://myWeb.com/MY_TEST_APP
7. 现在分享 的链接index.html。打开此文件后，系统会要求您点击安装。
8. 它将安装your_App.ipa在您的设备上。

If the app refuses to install or run, you may need to check the following items:

如果应用程序拒绝安装或运行，您可能需要检查以下项目：

• The provisioning profile you've used when compiling/archiving your app
• The URLs in both index.htmland manifest.plist
• The plistfile may possibly need to be hosted on an HTTPS server. You can use Dropbox for this if necessary.
• Your device UUIDs may need to be registered inside Apple Developer Center unless you have an Enterprise licence
• You may need to manually enable access to the app within Settings > Profiles

• 您在编译/归档应用程序时使用的配置文件
• 同时在网址index.html和manifest.plist
• 该plist文件可能需要托管在 HTTPS 服务器上。如有必要，您可以为此使用 Dropbox。
• 除非您拥有企业许可证，否则您的设备 UUID 可能需要在 Apple Developer Center 中注册
• 您可能需要在“设置”>“个人资料”中手动启用对应用程序的访问

More simply you can utilize DropBox for this. The steps basically remain the same. You can do the following-:

更简单的是，您可以为此使用 DropBox。步骤基本保持不变。您可以执行以下操作-：

1) upload your .ipa to dropBox, Share the link for this .ipa

1) 将您的 .ipa 上传到 dropBox，分享此 .ipa 的链接

2) Paste the shared link for .ipa in your manifest.plist file , Upload manifest file in DropBox again share the link for this .plist file

2) 将 .ipa 的共享链接粘贴到 manifest.plist 文件中，再次在 DropBox 中上传清单文件共享此 .plist 文件的链接

3)paste the link for this Plist in your index.html file with a suitable tag.

3) 将此 Plist 的链接粘贴到您的 index.html 文件中，并使用合适的标签。

Share this index.html file with anybody who can tap on the URL and download. or you can directly hit the URL instead.

与可以点击 URL 并下载的任何人共享此 index.html 文件。或者您可以直接点击网址。

Yes, safari will detect the *.ipa and will try to install it, but the ipa needs to be correctly signed and only allowed devices would be able to install it.

是的，safari 会检测 *.ipa 并尝试安装它，但需要正确签署 ipa，并且只有允许的设备才能安装它。

All of this is for Ad-hoc distribution, not for production apps.

所有这些都是针对临时分发的，而不是针对生产应用程序的。

There are online tools that simplify this process of sharing, for example https://abbashare.comor https://diawi.comCreate an ipa file from xcode with adhoc or inhouse profile, and upload this file on these site. I prefer abbashare because save file on your dropbox and you can delete it whenever you want

有一些在线工具可以简化这个共享过程，例如https://abbashare.com或https://diawi.com从 xcode 使用 adhoc 或内部配置文件创建一个 ipa 文件，并将此文件上传到这些站点。我更喜欢 abbashare 因为将文件保存在您的保管箱中，您可以随时删除它

It won't be possible if you like to directly download and install the app from your website. There is a different way for enterprise to deploy and install app over the air. Your URL should point to a web service that hosts a manifest plist file in predefined format required by Apple. This service should return the url of manifest file which can then be used as below:

如果您想直接从您的网站下载并安装该应用程序，这是不可能的。企业可以通过一种不同的方式通过无线方式部署和安装应用程序。您的 URL 应该指向一个 Web 服务，该服务以 Apple 要求的预定义格式托管清单 plist 文件。此服务应返回清单文件的 url，然后可以如下使用：

NSString *urlString = // url string where your manifest.plist is deployed on your server.
NSURL *installationURL = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=%@",[urlString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL];

Hope this answers your question.

希望这能回答你的问题。
