Objective: Get plist of an iOS app package.

Input: The AppStore URL, e.g. apps.apple.com/us/app/genshin-impact-lanter..

First step is to find bundle ID from Apple : https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id={Numeric ID here}

In our example, the lookup URL is: itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=1517783697

A text file will be downloaded after visiting the URL. We can get the bundleId field: com.miHoYo.GenshinImpact.

Install the ipatool to download the package.

brew tap majd/repo
brew install ipatool

Login:

ipatool auth login --email=xxxxx@icloud.com

Download: remember to add the --purchase as even a free software from AppStore requires a user to acquire a license.

ipatool download -b com.miHoYo.GenshinImpact  -o genshin-impact.ipa --purchase

The package is very huge in my example. It is about 2.4GB.

IPA is essentially an zip file. Uncompress it:

unzip genshin-impact.ipa
cd Payload/GenshinImpact.app/

Then you an find the Info.plist file there.
