• Using Titanium Studio, build: 3.2.0.201312191547
  iOS SDK version 7.0.3
  xCode Version 5.0.2 (5A3005)
  OSX 10.9.1 (Mavericks)

  By Plugging in via usb the device
  Run >Refresh Devices
  then in Run > iOS Device > phone name

  will build and install directly on handset.

  This will not debug in the Studio console - but is deployed directly to the handset.
  To debug -> open the project in xCode and run on the device -> it will debug to the console in Xcode

  be careful on real devices
  my iPad Air and iPad Mini are reporting themselves as handheld and not tablet
  This causes difficulty as the app shows as an iPhone app on these devices and SplitWindow is not available..

  This is not a titanium issue really as on investigation in a native app checking the Idiom also reports Idiom of iPhone.

  I have worked around this issue by creating a native module with the following property

  -(id)Idiom{
  if ( [(NSString)[UIDevice currentDevice].model hasPrefix:@"iPad"] ) {
  return @"ipad"; / Device is iPad */
  }
  if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad){
  return @"ipad";
  }else if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){
  return @"iphones";
  }
  }

  However the same thing can be achieved within alloy i guess without the need for a module.

  then inside alloy.js you can :-
  Alloy.isTablet = check custom idiom
  Alloy.isHandhled = !Alloy.isTablet;

  this enables SplitWindow etc

  Hope this helps

• I really wish. It looks like Apple has made this proprietary. We've tried to figure out how to do it for a long time. For now, we have to deploy through iTunes to get it on your phone.

• Give this a try: http://testflightapp.com/

  "iOS beta testing on the fly. With TestFlight, developers simply upload a build, and the testers can install it directly from their device, over the air."

  It is pure awesome-sauce.

• Jeff, if you want to know how it is done, look at this link. It only works with OS 4.x devices though. One thing that would make life simpler for us is if build.py created the .ipa file instead of (or in addition to) the .app folder. I do that using the steps I describe in this thread, among others.

• Hi,

  I have an ipad and an iphone with the same itunes account and i found very annoying how itunes works, so I decide to investigate how to deploy directly to the device.

  I'm doing this from XCode > Organizer > Applications… click the '+' sign to add the binary (.ipa file), that is found on your code folder > build > iphone > build >release-iphoneos

  but it always install the app in the device with the name 'titanio', i don't know how to fix this but, at least for testing, works fine.

  hope this helps.

• I export to iTunes, then either use XCode to put the .ipa file from the iTunes library directly onto the device (in the organizer window).. or upload the .ipa to TestFlight to send to test users (pure awesome-sauce +1)

• if with testing you mean "get the app on the device to see if my function i just wrote works"
  than you always can open the xcode projects in iphone/build with xcode and just press build and run on the device like you would do with a normal iphone project. im doing it this way when testing on the device. the titanium way over itunes is just way to complicated for me. oh and you get debug messages when running with xcode. isnt that nice.
