Free IPA tool

Check if an IPA looks ready for iPhone signing.

Upload an IPA and CertDrop will inspect its app metadata, bundle ID, minimum iOS version, embedded profile hints, app extensions, and common signing warnings.

No account needed IPA deleted after check Built for pre-signing checks
Drop your IPA here or tap to browse Maximum 700 MB. Use apps you own, develop, test, or have permission to install.

Need a certificate? Order a device-matched CertDrop certificate setup for Feather or ESign. Already have files? Use the free IPA signer with your own .p12 and mobileprovision files. Check certificate files Verify profile expiry, UDID match, and optional .p12/password status.

CertDrop only reads IPA metadata for this check. Uploaded files are stored temporarily during analysis and deleted after the result is returned.

What the IPA checker inspects

An IPA is a packaged iPhone or iPad application. The checker opens its metadata to identify the app name, bundle identifier, version, minimum supported iOS version, embedded provisioning information, and app extensions. These details help expose common structural problems before you spend time importing certificates or repeatedly signing the same file.

Warnings about extensions, identifiers, or minimum iOS versions are useful because every included component must be compatible with the signing setup. An app extension can have its own bundle identifier and entitlements, so a package that looks simple may require more than one correctly provisioned component.

What a successful result means

A successful check means the IPA could be opened and its expected metadata was found. It does not mean the app is already signed, guarantee that its entitlements match your profile, or promise that the app will run on every iOS release. You still need a matching certificate, provisioning profile, registered UDID, and compatible signing tool.

After checking the IPA, verify the certificate files with the certificate health check. If iOS later reports an integrity, verification, or installation error, use the iPhone signing error guide to identify the next step.
