A few days ago, the project was installed by fir (a free application publishing platform) for the test team. So click open it, directly find the help center began to do step by step, the middle encountered many pits, (there are evil Apple official website login can not go up!!) Online information is not too much, wasted a lot of time (harm I work overtime 😠), so write down to share it out to everyone, I hope to be helpful to you.

First of all, you need to determine what you need to use the platform. I have here dandelion (fir similar website) for application sharing requirements

If only a small group of people are installing it, add the UDID one by one, using ad-hoc methods, and the advantage is that you can apply for it with your own free certificate. If you want to do offline promotion and cannot obtain the target UDID In time, you’d better use in-house. However, it seems that Apple still has a certain limit on the installed quantity, and the specific policy is not clear.

My goal was to install the test team, so I chose ad-hoc.

1. Add the target (or “test team” for me) iPhone UDID to Devices on your Apple Developer page. (For obtaining UDID, see fir. Im/UDID here. This website is accessed using Safari browser of iPhone.)

After confirming your account, you can click OK below and the target UDID will be added to your Devices list at 😊.

Note: there will be a pit, which happened to the first UDID I imported

You will find that the item Model: is missing. At present, I have not found the reason (vague because there are some problems on the network or the official website of Apple when inputting this UDID 😊). Such accounts cannot be added to the description file, nor can they be recognized or used.

In another case, you add the target UDID, but it cannot be found in the Devices list. Registering the UDID again will prompt that it is not valid, and you have to give up after repeated attempts.

2. Add a description file for testing in Distribution, and add the target phone to the description file in this step.

After creat, click Download and the description file will be downloaded to your computer.

There’s nothing wrong with that, except that if apple’s website is difficult to access, some of the pages will not show some of the information you already have and will prompt you to create a new project. If you’re sure you have a project, refresh it.

3. Add the description file to Xcode and select the appropriate packaging options in the project to generate an. Ipa file. After uploading it to FIR platform and clicking “preview”, a URL with qr code will be automatically generated. (You need to access the link using the safari browser that comes with the iPhone.)

Now you can turn off the evil Apple website, go to your desktop, and suggest that you close Xcode completely. Then double click on the description file you downloaded. Xcode will open automatically, and the description file will be added.

Follow the instructions to generate an.ipA file. This. Ipa can be installed into the test application that was previously set up.

Then create an FIR account and publish on it.
