iOS Untrusted Developer error when testing app

I am trying to make my own iOS applications by using Xcode 7 and iOS 9.0. I have successfully been able to install the app on my own iPod by following Xcode 7 develop for iOS without developer account however when I run the application I get this error:

Untrusted Developer Your device management settings do not allow using apps from developer iPhone Developer on this iPod. You can allow using these apps in Settings.

I had a quick look in the Settings app but cannot find a way to allow this application that I made. How would I 'trust' this application running iOS 9?


Solution 1:

Enterprise and other certificates have to be manually trusted on iOS 9 when they didn't have to on iOS 8 and earlier.

  • Open the Settings app
  • Open General
  • Open Profiles (you won’t see this until after the first profile is installed on an iOS device)
  • Choose the affected profile and trust it

If you don't see "Profiles & Device Management" then your device needs to reinstall the app or get the appropriate profile from MDM / other enrollment. Also, if your network or system blocks any outbound traffic to Apple servers for time sync, OCSP/CRL or notarization checks, you will see errors or potentially have other challenges to run apps.

Solution 2:

On later versions (ios 14.4 and xcode 12.4) I've fixed with the following

  • Open the Settings app
  • Open General
  • Open Device Management
  • Click on Apple Develpment

From here you should be able to trust the app. :-)

Solution 3:

Alternative way to fix this error:

  • Open Xcode app on your Mac
  • Navigate to Window > Devices
  • Right click on your device > "Show Provisioning Profiles..." > and delete the profiles
  • Delete the installed app on your device
  • Now rebuild and install the app again

Note: In my case only "Settings > "General" > "Profiles" was shown instead of "Profiles & Device Management", and these steps solved the issue.

Solution 4:

There's a also Xcode solution for this problem.

  1. Open Xcode app on your Mac.
  2. Navigate to Window > Devices
  3. Select your device and delete the profiles.
  4. Delete the installed app on your device.
  5. Now rebuild the certificate and install the app again.
