View ipa file and its bundle content as regular folder on MAC

It is easy to view the content of an IPA file or bundle file in mac Finder. Instead of always needing to use the context menu of "Show Content" to open the bundle file.

For ipa file, just change the file extension from "ipa" to "zip" and then double click the zip file will extract the zip file to a regular folder.

Then in the payload subfolder, you will see a bundle file. In order to change the bundle file to a normal folder, right click the file and select context menu "get info", then from there, changing the Name and Extension section to remove ".app" from the file name. The bundle file now should show as a regular mac folder.
