Cordova 3.5.1 with iOS 8 device, remote debugging on Safari 7.1

1.5k Views Asked by At

I've exported an ad hoc distribution of a Cordova app for testing purpose. After installing the OTA on an iPad with iOS 8 and connecting it to the mac, it's not possibile to use remote debugging of Safari, it simply doesn't show the app in Developer menu.

Is there a solution for this or an alternative to Safari for remote debugging on iOS device?

edit: Updating Safari to 7.1 also broke web inspector on ad hoc distribution on iOS 7 devices, before the update it worked, anyone having the same issues?

I have just checked and Safari iOS 8 remote debugging works with latest nightly build

you can grab one here http://nightly.webkit.org/

Edit

Looks like Safari 7.1 also came out, according to this https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6537575 it solves the inspector issues

i used http://debug.build.phonegap.com

include http://debug.build.phonegap.com/target/target-script-min.js#yourappname in your Cordova app code

open http://debug.build.phonegap.com/client/#yourappname

the script allow remote debugging of your running app on device.
