Publish .ipa release?

[Johnny5sword]

Hello!

It would be great if the .ipa is available so iOS users can install this app using Altstore(iOS 12.2+) or Sideloadly(iOS 7+).

Unfortunately, I can't build it myself because I don't have a Mac or know others who have one.

If it is released, I also hope it lowers min iOS version to have compatibility with iOS 9.3 because it's the last OS version available for my device.
Thank you!

Edit: It looks like Flutter SDK versions 2.10.5(Stable), April 2022 and 2.13.0-0.4.pre(Beta), May 2022 were the last releases to support arm7v 32-bit iOS such as my version of iOS 9 based from this document.

Hi @Johnny5sword, I'm not currently working on the app but I checked your suggestion, and it seems like XCode doesn't give the possibility to set a version prior to iOS 11, and I guess that Flutter and all its dependencies would not work anyway.

Speaking about the .ipa, since I don't have a paid developer account I cannot build a package "as intended", I found some guide on how to package a .ipa file starting from the output of a flutter build command, but when I tried it in the past it didn't let me install the .ipa, so I abandoned that idea.
I wanted to try again today, but XCode is giving me trouble with certificates, if I manage to do something about that I'll post an update on this issue.

For now, I'll close the issue, but thank you for your interest!
