Build Version Deleted IPA

[wes1993]

Hello!!!
first thanks a lot for you wonderful guide :)
I have one question, how can I find the Build version of a deleted IPA? (I have bought the IPA in my account, I can see in the purchased tab)

The IPA app is Blynk (legacy) not the Blynk IoT

Sorry for the late reply, I completely forgot to answer your question. Do you still need it tho?

Yea, I need to Download the Blynk IPA

1. Go to your Purchased tab and download the latest version of your app (Blynk).
2. Rename the iPA from .ipa to .zip.
3. Extract the downloaded iPA > Payload > open the iTunesMetaData.plist in any Text editor (ex: Wordpad…)
4. At the middle of the file, you‘ll see all the available Build version numbers of the app (softwareVersionExternalIdentifiers).
5. Now you have the Build version numbers. Keep trying until you get the version you need. It’ll take a while depending on your luck

Just a note that I had to do this for a paid app, and this comment saved the day. It worked great for downloading an older build of Minecraft.

For me the iTunesMetaData.plist was in the main folder itself (not under Payload).

On windows I followed these steps:

• Download the most current app using iTunes.
• Navigate to the app in explorer.
• Rename the extension to .zip from .ipa
• Open or extract the app, and open the iTunesMetaData.plist file in a text editor.
• I found the build numbers under the key <key>softwareVersionExternalIdentifiers</key>
