IPhone app destroyed
-
Is there any way to deploy a test app to än iPhone without the phone destroying the app after 48h?
I have understood that apple devices will destroy unsigned apps after 48h / 30days depending on your license for developing apple apps.
There must be a workaround to make custom built apps to be runnable forever, like in Android?

Hi,
Where did you saw that ?
How are you planning to deploy your application ?
You have TestFlight that helps you manage application in testing phase that have indeed a time limit. -

And without paying $99 a year?What I'm trying to find out is whether it is possible to deploy an iPhone app to an iPhone, locally, without the use of any development licence or publisher license, and not having the phone destroying the app after a specific time limit.
So, is it possible to deploy an application to an apple device, without any kind of licence, and without the device destroying the app after a certain amount of time?

If you mean developing your application and test it on your own device, then yes.
-
Yes as @SGaist says, there is an exception where you don't have to pay US$99, a few years ago Apple started allowing deploying applications to a single iPhone, by giving you a special license only for that iPhone, and that license is only valid for about one week.

@hskoglund
Does this mean the app will be destroyed when the licence is no longer valid? After 1 week in this case.I have tried to find any kind of information regarding this. It seems Apple is very keen on charging for every single opportunity

Sry, that I don't know.
I never worked without a license on Mac/iOS, I know that apps distributed by TestFlight will stay 90 days on the phone/Tablet but that's as far as I know 🤷♂️If you have a license than no app that you distribute locally (via lightning cable) will expire
