About iDocSetHelper

iDocSetHelper is a helper tool for iDocSet.

Thanks to Bonjour, iDocSetHelper can find iOS devices running iDocSet, package and upload docsets over wifi. If there are no networks available, iDocSetHelper can upload docsets over USB (it's more faster than wifi)

iDocSetHelper is easy to use, just 3 steps:

1. Select device;

2. Select docsets you want to upload to your device;

3. Click "Upload" button.

Notice: It is strongly recommended that you turn off iOS device Auto-Lock feature before uploading. (Launch Settings app, select "General" -> "Auto-Lock", select "Never") Uploading will failed when device locked automatically.

Main UI:

Right Click On DocSet:

Right Click On Search Path:
