New Target and App for AppStore

I am so confused about the how to configure my second App for the App store. I have a one App which I am basing my second app on, I duplicated the target and some classes, modified it and checked it all the time in the simulator. Now I need to test it on my iPhone and then submit to the app store but I don't understand what I need to do about the following:

1) When I duplicated the Target for "myApp" I got a new file under the Products group in Xcode called "myApp copy.app", "copy-myApp-info.plist" and new scheme called "myApp copy". I was able to change the name of the info.plist.

If I then select my target and go to "Info"

2) The Bundle Identifier is exactly the same as my original.

3) The Executable file still says "${EXECUTABLE_NAME}" (without the quotes)

4) The Bundle display name still says "${PRODUCT_NAME}"

5) The Bundle name still says "${PRODUCT_NAME}"

What do I need to change above in order to release my new target as a new app in the AppStore? Also, will I need new provisioning profiles and certificates for this second target/app?

Solution

  • You need to follow below steps in order to test the application in device.

    • Duplicate the target and change the name as well.
    • Change the app name in schema by clicking manage schema button.
    • Change the product name and version whichever you want.
    • Create the new appID in developer portal.
    • Create the provisioning profiles based on the identifier.
    • Change the bundle identifier name in the new target.
    • Change the code signing profiles in build setting tab.

    Note: If you run the app in simulator that doesn't care about the profiles. If you run the app in device you defiantly take care about the profiles.
