Answer 1

If you have sync the app to you Mac, just open the following folder:

/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications

Or open iTunes and go to Apps and right mouse button on the app and select "show in Finder"

1. Copy the app you want to inspect, f.e. Demo.ipa
2. Change the extension ipa to zip => Demo.zip
3. Extract the zip
4. Open the folder and then the folder "Payload"
5. Right Mouse Click Demo.app and select "Show Package Content"
