Step 2: Search for version ID2.1 App Store search for and install Workflow

Workflow is a God-level automated process application on iOS platform. It not only helps us to save every repetitive operation, but also to complete many incredible tasks.

In March 23, 2017, Apple officially acquired Workflow and the entire development team.

It can be said that Workflow is an artifact. Here we use it to find the ID corresponding to the historical APP version.

2.2 Add a task

Scan code: scan the code in the browser, click "get workflow", and jump to Workflow to add a task.

2.3 search for ID

Run the newly added "old version of App packet capture" task and enter the App name to query the task. Then, you can obtain the corresponding version ID, for example, search for the UC browser.

 

2.4 help Query

Workflow is not easy to use. If it is not used, you can add a group for help query to view the group information.

Step 3: Download APP3.1 to intercept download requests

Confirm the version ID to be downloaded. For example, the download ID of UC browser 10.7 is 813088087.

Search for the App in iTunes, switch to Fiddler, clear the request (shortcut: CTRL + X), and enter a command in the black text box in the lower left corner to open the breakpoint bpu MZBuy. woa press enter (cancel the breakpoint as the input bpu)

Return to iTunes and click Download or update.

3.2 modify download request

After you return to Fiddler, a request with the red icon appears. Click the request to display the Inspectors column.

In the TextView window, locate the appExtVrsId location, the next row of numbers, and the ID of the downloaded version.

The Edit version ID is the version ID to be downloaded, as shown in the 813088087 query above. (You can click the picture to enlarge the preview)

3.3 confirm download

Finally, click the green button (Run to Completion) to send the request and download it. (Press the Delete key twice to Delete the selected download)

If the download does not respond after a long time, pause the download and click Capturing in the lower left corner of Fiddler to cancel the interception request. Then, continue the download.
