I don't think I'm getting this. I'm having difficulty understanding how one actually gets the finished Storyline 2 file from the PC to the iPad for viewing. I have the Articulate Player App installed on the iPad (Pro, by the way) and I have tried E-mailing, Dropbox, and any other way I can think of. What is the path that gets my finished file from Storyline to viewing it on the Articulate Player App on my iPad? It seems like everyone knows that but me!
Thank you for the reply, but it's oversimplified for me. The Articulate Player App makes it look easy! Just "Tap a course link from an email or webpage to get started." I've put the files up on a Google Drive (with no luck). I don't know why the Articulate App doesn't do "File Sharing" with iTunes (I think this would solve a lot of problems). But I understand what you're saying, but I'm still not understanding how to get those files to a place where the App reads them.
I think they are assuming you have already hosted your course somewhere before generating the "email or webpage".
Consider where your course will eventually live. How will learners get to it? Usually that means that you have placed it on a website, company intranet page or within an LMS.
You need to be able to get to it as though you were an average user in your intended audience.
Google Drive used to work, but they changed their policies, which is why it doesn't anymore. SCORMCloud (https://cloud.scorm.com/sc/guest/SignUpForm) has provisions for free hosting. You upload the published file there (instructions on the site), and they give you a link to it.
Thanks for the replies - and thanks, Walt for the tip on SCORMCloud. I used to have free hosting at the university I work at, but even that's getting hard to come by. I just want to test my concept!

You need to output the content (for web, or lms, etc...) and then place/host it somewhere you can get to with your ipad.

Oh...If that's all you need, then use Articulate Tempshare.
But it's temporary.
