Question

Do we need enterprise account to rollout LOB iOS app?

Closed this issue 3 years ago · 5 comments

Describe the bug:
Hello, we wrapped lob iOS app for some users using intunes sdk. But when user are trying to install the app they are getting app could not be installed because it's integrity not verified. I want to ask do we need users UUID registered to profile to make app install on their devices or intunes manage this itself? We are using apple developer account not enterprise account.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

Device: iPhone
OS: 14.4

Hi @ankitpoplify, when using development cert/profile to sign the app, the app can only be installed on specific devices listed in the provisioning profile. Intune does not manage this. To install the app on any device, it needs to either be enterprise or release signed.

Thanks for the reply sir. One more thing what do you mean by release signed app? Is it making app available on app store? Actually, our app is not available on app store, so how can we distribute app to our users without making it available on app store? Do we need to take enterprise membership?-- -- Regards *Ankit Singh | Tech Associate* Poplify Limited WeWork, 41 Corsham St., London, UK E ***@***.*** | W http://www.poplify.com

Hi @ankitpoplify general-distribution (release) signed apps can only be distributed via official Apple channels - App Store and TestFlight (for preview builds). To distribute via other channels (like Intune Company Portal), the app should be enterprise signed. In that scenario, users need to explicitly trust the organization in the iOS settings before they are allowed to use any of its applications.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Have a great weekend.
