由于IPA包的Bundle display name 包含非英文字符。 解决方式:

  1. ipa包重命名为zip文件,解压。
  2. 进入Payload,右键显示包内容
  3. 修改里面的 info.plist文件 的 Bundle display name的值为英文(不能为中文),修改后保存文件
  4. 将Payload 文件夹重新压缩成 zip,并重命名为ipa。即可正常安装。

Using esign or sideloadly or other app to replace the app name with a English name can solve this problem.

If anyone doesn't want to understand the chinese,

Change the .ipa files extension to .zip, open it and go into the Payload folder, then find Info.plist and open it any plist editor of your liking (i use xcode) and find displayname and replace the blank name with a valid one. you can then add the ipa file to your phone in whatever way you like and sideload it like normal

This issue should not be resolved through user modification, as it is crucial for using non English apps. Currently, many of my own apps are affected by this issue and cannot continue to be used.

Do the judgments in the above two places have specific meanings? This seems to be the source of the problem. Due to other issues affecting me, I am unable to test it.

@0x1af2aec8f957 can you send me an IPA file that's not working and we can look more into it?

I created a simple test package with this issue: test.zip.

GitHub does not allow direct uploading of IPA files.

@shanegillio After downloading, manually change the file suffix from .zip to .ipa.
