Dumb, old question: Can You Really Install an iOS App outside of Apple's
App Store?
I'm reviewing again the differences between the Open Source "community"
version and the Commercial license, which I thought I understood well...
(See the faq http://livecode.com/support/ask-a-question/)
But this is puzzling: Under
Open source:
1) Acme Corp wants to distribute their app and source code
directly from their website, for use on any platform
Commercial option:
2) Acme Corp wants to submit their free or paid iOS or Mac
OS app, to the official Apple iTunes or Mac App Store
Regarding # 1 above:
Can iOS users really download an app from any web site and install it on
their iPhone or iPad without going through the App Store?
I did not think this was possible unless you had the GUID for each
device you want to deploy to and that was limited to 100 devices. But
this verbiage -- "distribute their app and source code directly from
their website, for use on any platform" -- implies I could put an iOS
app on our site and someone could just download --> drag into iTunes -->
sync and voila!... the app is running on their iPhone/iPad. or navigate
in their iPhone to a download link and click to install the app....
Is that even possible? What am I missing here?
