#Test xcode app on iphone without developer account mac osx
This method worked for me using iOS 8.3 and Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.4. Drag-and-drop ipa onto iPhone with Apple Configurator 2 (connected with cable) For some reason the app is greyed out on the Home screen, but I cannot open it at all. Compress and rename extension from zip to ipa. This wasn't possible with earlier XCode versions and is certainly much easier than using one of the "hack"-like techniques involving jailbreaking your device and practically voiding it's warranty.įinally, you will only need to set the Code Signing Identity to the registered AppleID (for both the Project and the Target) and you're ready to deploy your app. Create Payload directory and copy app into that. Then you should follow these instructions, basically just adding an AppleID which should be used to sign the app. Inside that build folder, you will need to find and open the XCode project file with XCode 7 (example path: ~/remote-builds/builds/654/cordovaApp/platforms/ios/YOUR_PROJECT_deproj).Īfter having connected and detected your iOS device, you should be able to select it as deployment target.
Whenever an app is built for the iOS simulator, vs-mda-remote will create a whole new build folder (named using a 3 - 5 digit random number) located in ~/remote-builds/builds. Login with your Apple ID (+ > Add Apple ID) Once you’ve successfully logged in, a new ‘Personal Team’ with the role ‘Free’ will appear beneath your Apple ID. Interestingly, Apple seems to have changed their strategy not much time ago, finally allowing to sign and deploy apps on non-rooted iOS devices. Other methods (described here or here) requiring jailbreaking the device haven't worked for me either. However, the deployment options Remote Device and Local Device will both fail when you haven't subscribed to the Apple Developer Program. Using an appropriate deployment target in Visual Studio, the app can be tested within a virtualized iOS environment. The latest XCode version (7 Beta 2) is able to sign iOS applications using an ordinary AppleID instead of a $100 developer license.įirst, you will need to prepare the vs-mda-remote node plugin on your Mac and be able to build applications.
After several months I finally found a working solution:
