Extract Xcode project file from an .ipa or executable file
xcode
Solution
The .ipa file contains, as you have noticed, your compiled project. So no, you can't get the Xcode project file or the source code. (Unless of course, someone deliberately copied those files in).
Problem
Is there any way to extract an Xcode Project file from an .ipa (executable file)? I tried the following: Make a copy of the .ipa file and change .ipa to .zip. Double click on the Payload folder and open project folder. Right-click on that folder and select Show Package Contents. Everything seems to be okay, but I want to see the code, which is now showing as executable files. Is there any tool or any way to achieve this?
