Can someone more familiar with iOS app development explain why people can’t just use developer mode on their iOS devices to run untrusted code? Can’t you bypass the App Store entirely with this method?
- vdaea 3y agoYou can only install 3 apps at once, they are somewhat limited in the APIs they can use, and they expire every 7 days (you need to reinstall them using a computer)
- kjreact 3y agoThanks for the response; those restrictions do make running homebrew code rather inconvenient. I read that buying a dev account increases the limit to 10 apps and they expire every year. That’s probably sufficient for my use cases, but it’s still not ideal.
- vdaea 3y agoCosts $100 a year unfortunately.
