Hi guys,

Do I really need to have a signature for building an iOS app via MD?  
I need to run it on the iPhone simulator only, I don’t want to release it .

Best Regards,  
Plamen, Veselinov

Hi,

You don’t need a signature to build for the simulator, however you will need a copy of the SDK.  
Mobile Designer will then automatically create you an XCode project to load and launch the simulator.

Cheers,  
Matt
