Popular questions

How do I share an app build with a tester?

Upload the .ipa or .apk at ipalinked.com, then send the generated link or QR code. Android installs directly; a signed iOS build installs over the air from Safari. Free, no account needed.

How do I install an IPA on iPhone without a computer?

Open the IPALinked share link in Safari and tap Install on device — it installs over the air, no Mac or cable. The build must be signed for that device. Full guide: install an IPA on iPhone.

How do I find my iPhone or iPad UDID?

Open ipalinked.com/udid in Safari, tap Get My UDID, install the short profile, and copy your UDID — about 30 seconds, no iTunes. Then remove the profile.

Why does iOS say “Unable to Install”?

The build isn't signed for your device. Your UDID must be registered in the provisioning profile, or the app must be enterprise-signed. See the full fix.

Is IPALinked free?

Yes — 100% free, no signup, no credit card, files up to 500MB, links last 7 days.
