iPhone: how to get IPA onto non jailbroken iPhone without iTunes and without e-mail?
Solution 1
You could use Testflight http://testflightapp.com It gives you a short url after uploading a build which you can install the IPA from there.
Don't forget to add the device UDID to the certificates.
Solution 2
OTA (over the air) is the way to go if you don't want to use TestFlightApp.
Distribute the app via ad-hoc distribution, and store the app on a web server. You can then directly download the app from the web server onto your iPhone by calling the appropriate url in Safari.
Here is a guide on how to do this:

Solution 3
Have a look at TestFlightApp. You can create a new (or use an existing), web-based email address and use that to register your friend's device with the your TestFlightApp account.

my friend borrowed me his (non jailbroken) iphone 4s to test my iphone application. How can I get the IPA onto his iphone without syncing with itunes? (IPA is created with Flash, so i can't use XCode). I know there are some over the air services but they require to open e-mails with the e-mail application on the phone. I don't want to open his e-mails, so, is there another way to get the IPA onto it?
