I have a question about web to iOS native. How do you distribute that app? I’m assuming you’re paying $99 yearly to distribute through the App Store? Is this app meant just for you or for anyone to find?
Reason I’m asking is because I’d like to make native iOS apps just for myself rather than progressive web apps. But I haven’t understood the best way to distribute.
If just for yourself, get an Apple Dev account and use TestFlight
Or just build and deploy to your iPhone from XCode. No need for TestFlight or paying money for a dev account.
Do I need to upload a new build of the app every 90 days? I’d prefer the app to just work forever without thinking about it.
You need a paid dev account for that. I think self signed installs can run for a year.
