[ios] What is a provisioning profile used for when developing iPhone applications?

Apple cares about security and as you know it is not possible to install any application on a real iOS device. Apple has several legal ways to do it:

  • When you need to test/debug an app on a real device the Development Provisioning Profile allows you to do it
  • When you publish an app you send a Distribution Provisioning Profile[About] and Apple after review reassign it by they own key

Development Provisioning Profile is stored on device and contains:

  • Application ID - application which are going to run
  • List of Development certificates - who can debug the app
  • List of devices - which devices can run this app

Xcode by default take cares about
