How to launch already installed iOS App on iPhone remotely? - ios

I am currently working on an In-House Enterprise application for which I need to launch an already installed iOS app remotely, not considering jail broken devices & it should happen without user interaction.

Sorry this can't be happen without user interaction. I am pretty sure about this.

Get access to all installed Apps on iPhone

I want to display all apps there was installed on the iPhone in a UITableView in my App and then I would like to display the Internet usage of each apps there are installed. Is that Possible?
No, you can't do that. Apple specifically prevents apps from learning about other installed apps.

Testing Apps on a Device

When using trigger.io toolkit, there's an option that says
"Build and immediately run your app, either locally, on a simulator or on a connected device."
How do you run the app on a Connected Device? I want to see the app on my iPhone and see how it behaves directly. Is this possible?
Thanks

I'm going to assume you're working on windows with an iPhone that's iOS8 because that's where you currently can't run your app directly on a connected device.
What we did to "fix" this is creating a Development Provisioning Profile with the UDID's of our test devices and added this to config -> tools in the trigger.io toolkit. In the forge you now select package -> iOS giving you a .ipa file. This .ipa can now be installed using iTunes on your test devices.
It's a bit longer than just clicking run on device like you can for Android but at least you don't have to send it to testflight and wait for apple's approval.
This is possible but it depends on your os.
If your on a Mac you can deploy to both ios and android devices from forge, just connect them via usb and build, grated you need to make sure iTunes sees your devices etc.. there are guides on the trigger site
If you are on Windows, you are unfortunate out of luck right now, this used to work but ios8 broke this so if your building on ios7 you could still do it on Windows, otherwise you would need to use testpiolet from apple

Do I need an iOS device to test PhoneGap Built apps?

I'm a complete noob and figuring out all this as I go along so bear with me.
I've built an app using jQuery Mobile, used PhoneGap Build and it works totally fine on Android and I'll deploy it soon. I'm now trying to figure out the more complex steps towards getting it ready for the iOS market. I've got my developer account set up and have tested my app as built with Xcode 4.2 and Cordova.
What I'm having confusion over (well one of the things) is whether or not I need an actual iOS device in order to get the proper provisioning and certificates. Can I get those, run the package through PG Build and then test it with the Xcode iOS simulator? Must I bother my friends to give me one of their iPhones to test on?
If I'm being vague or asking this the wrong way I apologize.
I'm currently building an app for iOS using Phonegap and even though I have done some testing with a physical device I have seen that the simulator works really well. I mean it would definitely be a good idea to at least run one test of your final version on a physical device before you decide to submit, Apple and pretty much everyone else very strongly suggest that you do, but you aren't required to test on a physical device. All the provisioning and certificate stuff can be done through the Apple Developer site.
The only real reason I could see your app not getting approved relating to this topic is if there is some weird glitch that is only present on a physical device and looks fine on the simulator.
And keep in mind, though it probably won't get you disapproved I've noticed that Phonegap apps that use jQuery Mobile tend to be more glitchy on the transitions compared to when they are run on the simulator.
No you don't need an iOS device to get certificates. You can get them using OpenSSL. I created a GUI to help do just this for Windows users.
However Apple is one of the strictest in approval. It takes 8 days for them to approve an app. And they have been know to not approve apps simply because of there appearance.
Now I myself prefer to have iDevices to test apps.

You will need an Apple computer to submit apps to the App Store. Apple no longer has a web based App Submission

device deployment in iOS without connecting the device manually

I am working in iOS native applications using Xcode in objective C with SUP 2.1.3 as backend.I have deployed my application in iPAD by connecting it to mac machine.Now I would like to know, if I can deploy my application into iPAD without connecting the iPAD to mac machine ie by transferring any files to the iPAD.? Or is there any other way to do that?
Currently, there is no supported way of doing this
There used to be, in an early version of Xcode 4. Then Apple killed it - for reasons of being too buggy.
I, like you, often wish they would bring it back, just so that those that do use it don't have to use cables all the time.
Except for Ad Hoc
EDIT: I now understand the question better - you don't want to use the iPad for development as in debugger and whatnot. You want your friend to be able to run your apple on his device. Got it. Google iOS ad hoc

Create an iPhone app for personal use without using Xcode or going through the App Store

I want to make a little app just for me. I don't want to distribute it, and don't want to make any money from it, I just need to have this app with me.
I don't have a Mac capable of running Xcode, and I don't want to waste any money on the developer license.
Is there a way I can make an app for only my personal iPhone 4s, without going through the App Store or using Xcode? My iPhone is jailbroken.
A web app might be a better solution.
The short answer is no. You would need a Mac/Xcode to compile/build the application for you. As #Thalecress suggested you might be better off building a web app.
Also check PhoneGap, with it you can deploy your web app in several platforms (including iOS, Android and WP7). Phonegap also offers a build service that you can use to wrap the final web app as a native app to run it on a device (PhoneGap:Buld).
