Ionic package IOS submission to App Store

Hi,
I’m working on windows machine, built the IPA file using ionic package service:
“ionic package build ios --release -–profile winnerzprod”

I’m in the process to submit my app to the Apple app store but it requires that:
“Submit your builds using Xcode 6 or later, or Application Loader 3.0 or later”

Is there a way to submit the IPA I have created using the package service?
Can I do it from my windows machine or I must have a mac?
Please elaborate.
Thanks!

You will need access to a Mac. Either find a friend who can lend you their machine, or look into a rental service. There are Mac’s in the Cloud services available that people have used in the past.

Good luck.

Thanks for your reply.

Can you elaborate how it’s done with Mac? Do I need to start building with Xcode or I can use the IPA I already have?

Take a read over this: http://clearbridgemobile.com/how-to-submit-an-app-to-the-app-store/
The Apple developer docs will have guidance as well.
