Scratch.app is could be installed with out compiling

Guys, I haven't tried but I'm going to try, so i can't guarantee this will work. But i bet it's certainly worth a try. (I'll be honest, i don't thing it's going to work)


Direct method

1. Download the app and extract the ApplicationName.app folder to your desktop.(for scratch.app it's only a folder, so pack all the file INSIDE THE FOLDER in to a  .app extension)
2. Copy ApplicationName.app into /Applications via SSH or SFTP and set it's permissions to 755 (chmod 755 ApplicationName.app )
3. Create a folder called “Documents” in /var/mobile/ and set permissions to 777. (*only needs to be done once)
4. Reboot your iPhone.

Download Scratch.app at : https://github.com/johnmci/Scratch.app.for.iOS

How do you ssh onto your ipod?


Yeah, I'm mostly inactive.  I check in once in a while though.  If you want to contact me, I have a contact form at my website, http://escratch.org

This won't work, the mac and the iphone are different architectures (e.g. the mac is x86/i386 and the iphones use ARM) You would have to disassemble the binary inside of the packaged mac application, then reassemble it using an iphone cross compiler. (what xcode does) Basically, to accomplish what you wanted is the equivalent, or possibly harder, than simply compiling it from the source the gbear605 had. (I think it was him, anyways)

Why don't you put it on test flight so we dont have to jailbreak?

But it's not a Mac app, it's an iOS app.
