Hey there! Given your setup (Windows 10 host, macOS on VMware, Xcode/Swift development) and lack of an Apple ID, here are the practical paths you can take:

1. Jailbroken iPhone (No Apple ID Required at All) #

If your iPhone is jailbroken, this is the most straightforward solution:

• First, install the AppSync Unified plugin via Cydia. This plugin bypasses iOS's app signature verification, letting you install unsigned IPAs without any Apple-related checks.
• Next, transfer your IPA file to the device using a jailbreak-compatible file manager like Filza or iFile, then tap the IPA to install it directly. You can also use tools like iTools in jailbreak mode to transfer and install the file.
• Note: Jailbreaking voids Apple's official warranty, and not all iOS versions have stable jailbreak tools available. Make sure your device's iOS version has a reliable jailbreak solution before proceeding.

2. Non-Jailbroken iPhone (No Legitimate Way to Skip Apple ID) #

If your device isn't jailbroken, there's no legitimate method to install an IPA entirely without an Apple ID. iOS's core security model requires all installed apps to have a valid Apple-issued signature, which is tied to an Apple ID (even a free one):

• If you're open to creating a free Apple ID temporarily, you can use Xcode's free debug signing: Log into the free ID in Xcode, select your device, either run the project directly or export a signed IPA, then install it via Xcode or tools like AltStore. Keep in mind these debug-signed apps only work for 7 days before needing to be re-signed.
• Any tool claiming to install IPAs on non-jailbroken devices without an Apple ID is almost certainly malicious or poses significant security risks—avoid them.
