James Barret – July 15, 2017

The latest iOS 10.3 features new prompt for the ratings & reviews in App Store. However, if you talk about previous versions of the operating system, the prompt used to take you to App Store where you could leave your review. But, for iOS 10.3, you have in-app prompts that allow you to leave your reviews right there.

“sudo gem install cocoapods; git clone https://bitbucket.org/rileytestut/gba4ios.git; cd gba4ios; pod install”

8. Once the app opens in Xcode, you should now connect iOS device with the help of USB, and opt for it as your build destination. You can do this by clicking on “Product” in Menu Bar after that going to “Destination” and selecting the connected device.
9. For installing the desired apps, Xcode needs you to have a signature for code signing. For that you’ll have to click Project name towards the left of Xcode. Provide your ‘Bundle Identifier’ in ‘Identity’ part here. Usually the format is that of ‘reverse domain name’, however, you can provide anything you may like.
10. You will next receive a warning will show up that says ‘No matching profile found’. Opt for your name in ‘Team’ box at the bottom and click ‘Fix Issue’ button to get the issue resolved.
11. If that source code is perfect and there aren’t any warnings or errors, the Xcode 7 will sideload your chosen app after which it will run on destination device that you have chosen.

So, that’s how to sideload apps by using Xcode7 on your device and without the need of any kind of Jailbreak.
