iOS app and developer profile

[William de Smet]

They do not offcourse.
For my own apps I use the developer profiles on my OWN devices and in the App Store the Distribution Profile. 
I had apps in the App Store but Apple deleted them because they were not updated in a long time. So nothing is forever.

Now I am learning SwiftUI and that is a different cookie :-)
