iOS deployment question

Wed Mar 23 16:45:59 EDT 2016

Hi Bill,

Just a thought:
Could it be the case that you have checked the "Beta version" checkbox in
the standalone application settings for iOS, but you sign the app using a
Development profile?

I think the "Beta version" checkbox has to be used *only* with a
Distribution profile.

Regards,
Panos
