My app is ready but i need to test also on ios to fix the platform bugs. Ionic view is not an option and i dont have apple developer license.
I am wondering if i rent a mac hosting and run my project with ionic cordova run IOS, i will see the app on my device without any problem right? I guess i dont need license for just running.
I’m using Macincloud. I highly recommend it.
It has everything you need to publish an iOS version app.
Xcode, node are pre-installed on all macincloud cloud macs.
Macincloud is much faster than VMware mac… and its internet speed is pretty fast too.
You have to pay $99 a year developer license fee to Apple app store to get a distribute certificate.
i dont want to push it to the apple store yet. But i added ios platform to my project, used ionic cordova run ios and it is not deploying to my device (it is connected via usb, i can see it) (the build was successful). So i guess i still need developer license for just running.
A cloud Mac won’t help directly with getting the app on your local device - remote Xcode won’t be able to access your device. But you can build on the cloud Mac, and then distribute the app via HockeyApp or a similar beta distribution service.
If you have a local Mac and problems with getting the built app on your device, lets us know the details and we will look into it.
i have built the app on the remote computer. Now i have a file.app.zip in my platform/ios/build/emulator folder. I uploaded that zip to hockeyapp but it is not even recognising the app. I am so lost without mac computer and stucked for a week and cant continue with my app 
How did you build the app?
With ionic cordova emulate ios the emulator should start by itself and run your app directly.
Hi James,
I have tested my app using phonegap and an iPhone. It is now time to publish the app and since I do not have a mac, I plan to use Macincloud. Based on your experience, do I need a dedicated server or would a managed server be enough?
You mentioned that node is pre-installed so I assume I need to install ionic and cordova on it?
Thanks for your guidance in advance,
Doug
