Sideloading notification with paid dev account

[Shura1oplot]

The description mentioned that while having account with enrolled Apple Developer Program it is possible to have notifications in a sideloaded app.

Sideloading
...
Sideloadly (Free, No notifications*) *Notifications require $99/year Apple Developer Program

I have an Apple Developer Program enrolled, but don't have notifications. Are there any changes to be made in Sideloadly to have notifications?

Register app id

1. Register an identifier with the "App IDs" tag identifier at https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/add/bundleId

5. Click the continue button, then register

Generate Certificate Signing Request

6. Open the Keychain Access app on your mac.
7. Under the Keychain Access entry on your menu bar, select Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate from a Certificate Authority
8. Enter an email address and a name of your choice (the contents does not matter)
9. Select saved to disk
10. Save this file in a folder of your choice

Create distribution certificate

11. Create a new "Apple Distribution" certificate under the Software header at https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/certificates/add
12. Upload the Certificate Signing Request file you generated in the previous section
13. Click the Download button, and save the .cer file in a folder of your choice
14. Open the downloaded file, and make sure you can find it inside of your keychain.
    
15. Right click on the certificate and select Export
16. Make sure the file format is set to .p12, and save the file in a folder of your choice

Create Ad Hoc profile

17. Create a new "Ad Hoc" profile under the Distribution header at https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/profiles/add
18. Select the app id you created earlier
19. Make sure to select the no option for offline support
20. Select the distribution certificate you created in the previous section
21. Select which devices you will install the app on
22. Provide a name to easily identify the profiler later, then click the Generate button.
23. Click the Download button, and save the .mobileprovision file in a folder of your choice

Install tools

24. Make sure you have an installation of homebrew, otherwise install it with /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
25. Install OpenSSL & zsign

$ brew install openssl@1.1

$ git clone https://github.com/zhlynn/zsign
$ cd zsign
$ chmod +x INSTALL.sh
$ ./INSTALL.sh

Export certificate information

26. Run the following commands, replacing <yourcert.p12> with the location of your saved p12 certificate file.

$ openssl pkcs12 -in yourcert.p12 -nocerts -nodes -legacy -out ios_dist.key
$ openssl pkcs12 -in yourcert.p12 -clcerts -nokeys -legacy -out ios_dist.pem

Sign app

27. Run the following command and replace the following values.
    • <dist.cer> → Your distribution certificate file path
    • <adhoc.mobileprovision> → Your ad hoc profile path
    • <bundle.id> → The bundle id of your chosen app (eg: com.hammerandchisel.discord)
    • <app.name> → The name to display on the home screen (eg: Discord)
    • <signed.ipa> → The name to save the signed ipa under
    • <unsigned.ipa> → The path to the unsigned ipa you would like to sign

$ ./zsign -z 5 -k ios_dist.key -c <dist.cer> -m <adhoc.mobileprovision> -b <bundle.id> -n <app.name> -o <signed.ipa> <unsigned.ipa>

Install app

28. Finally, install the signed .ipa to your device through your preferred method. For example:
    • Sending .ipa to device through AirDrop
    • Dragging .ipa onto connected device in finder
    • Dragging .ipa onto connected device in Apple Configurator
    • Using a command-line tool such as https://libimobiledevice.org/

Basically, you won't be using sideloadly at all. After it's signed you can just send it to your phone by any means (airdrop, finder over usb, even safari)
