IT:Apple:AppStore

All software installed on an iPhone has to be signed, and can only be installed on devices permitted by the Provisioning Profile.

For development purposes, one needs a Development Provisioning Profile to install in AdHoc mode to a small pool of unique devices (about 100 UUIDs per year).
Each Development Provisioning Profile will contain:
- An AppID
- A set of iOS Development Certs (TODO: CLARIFY: More than one?)
- A list of UUIDs.

Private Keys are generated using KeyChain on your iMac
Using this Key, you request a certificate.
- Be aware that if you download cert to another machine,you will have to Export private/public key as a P12 file.
- In Keychain, if not little triangle, Private Key is not installed.
Need two profiles: ad-hoc (for TestFlight) and another for app-Store.
When you generate a profile, it will be:
- linked to your certificate, only working on mac with private key installed.
- inked to a specific AppId (SeedId+BundleIdentifier).
  - See info.plist
- Worth knowing: Once an app has been signed by one profile (eg, adhoc) can be resigned with another profile, as long as same App Id.
- Provisioning profiles have a unique UUID in them, that changes every time a new Device is added. Can use a script to extract it during a CI operation.
- Bundle Seed ID is also known as Team ID.
- Profile's Bundle ID must match App's Bundle ID or it won't compile.
