you can do so but it won't allowed by Apple, so only do it on your own device.

Quite interesting project. I have a few questions:

• Is PlayAppStore a MDM?
• How to setup the server? For example, what kinds of certificates I should upload?
• How to upload ipa to server?
• Do you haver an example server for testing?

By the way, I have Apple enterprise account.

Thanks.

Q: Is PlayAppStore a MDM?
A: NO

Q: How to setup the server? For example, what kinds of certificates I should upload?
A: If you know node.js well, you can execute this command 'npm install -g playappstore' in the terminal;
For the certificates, both signed from ca or self-signed will be ok, but certificates signed from ca will save you lots of time.

Q: How to upload ipa to server?
A: Once server is installed, you can send a HTTP request to the server whatever you use curl or something like that.
for the curl usage, here is an example:
curl 'https://host:port/apps' -F "package=@path" -F "changelog=some feature" --header "MasterKey: playappstore" --insecure
// where path is your local ipa file path.

Q: Do you haver an example server for testing?
A: NO, I ran this server on my own computer for my company.

About the certificates, if you do not have one form ca, this server will generate a self-signed certificate automatically.
And if you just want a server for ota usage, you can check this repo: https://github.com/zhao0/ipapk-server only if you known Chinese well 😢
