iOS Signing Overview

You need to have your iOS Certificates and Provisioning Profiles ready to be able to build and deploy your applications to Apple Appstore.

For app builds, signing identities are not mandatory. For example, you can use unsigned apps to run on the simulator or on third-party platforms that resign your app, such as AWS Device Farm.

However, unsigned binaries cannot be installed on actual devices; therefore they cannot be used in the Appcircle Testing Distribution.

You can obtain your developer certificates and provisioning profiles from the Apple Developer Portal:
