Appium. How to install app from apple store
Previously I've used builds from hockeyapp. Installation was using url to .ipa file on hockeyapp. Now I'm trying to do the same but using some url to app store. Unfortunately it's not working in this way.
Question:
- how to install app from apple store on my real iOS devise with appium?
- how to get url to .ipa file from apple store?

There is no way you gonna install app from Apple Store via Appium:
- Appium is using WebDriverAgent for iOS Automation
- WebDriverAgent should be signed with same Apple developer account that your app was signed
- Appium can interact only with the app that was signed described way, so it cannot download anything from Apple store and even if you get app from store Appium would not be able to interact with it.
