Software that can be used for conversion of ipa file type to xap format.
It is not possible to simply convert installation packages for iPhones (.ipa) to Microsoft Silverlight packages (.xap) for Windows Phone devices, i.e. perform ipa to xap conversion. You need to check if the developer of the iPhone app also offers the version for Windows Phone, because there is really no other simply way to convert ipa to xap.
Unfortunately, there is no detailed software record in the database for this conversion.
This conversion entry was verified by us and conversion from ipa to xap was flagged as wrong or not possible.
