What is an IPG file?

IPG files mostly belong to iPod Games by Apple. IPG files are used by iTunes to install games on an Apple iPod.

Main Usage: IPG files contain the installation files required to add a game to an iPod. This can be done by connecting the device to a computer running iTunes. Using IPG files allows users to share programs without having to use the App Store. This can also be beneficial as users can install programs on their devices without internet access, as would be required for programs installed through the App Store. Custom programs also benefit as they do not have to go through a verification process for distribution on the App Store, as these can be distributed as IPG files instead. Using IPG files to install games is only supported by iTunes, but this process can be done from a computer running Windows or Mac OS.
Other Associations: The IPG file extension is also used by Mindjongg as an image format file.
