I have created an iPad app and it is ready to go to the app store, but I can't reach the .app file.. I think it is because I have to build through a real iPad device(which I don't have)?
So, can I build the app for archiving without an iPad, using like the simulator?
/A noob
Yes you can build for archive without having a device connected.
Step 1:
Set the active scheme to 'iOS Device'
Step 2:
Product > Archive
Step 3:
Organizer > Archives
Note: The screenshots were taken without a connected device.
