App-specific password does not work? #90

What happened?

I tried to supply an app-specific password to the tool but keeps getting unknown error every time. Is this just me or does the tool not work with app-specific passwords?

Version

1.1.2

This is not a bug - unfortunately, the private API that the tool uses does not support app-specific passwords. Until that changes, adding support for app-specific passwords in ipatool is not possible.
