How to get around Apple app ID insanity

Tags:

xcode

As you all know, Apple changed how Xcode works such that you can't ever create an app with a previously used app ID, even if you're just writing test apps to use locally. Up until now I've just been typing in garbage IDs to get around this stupid antifeature, but today I was greeted with this gem:

Unable to add App ID because the '10' App ID limit in '7' days has been exceeded.

So now I'm blocked from creating any more test apps, effectively stopping my development dead in its tracks (I write libraries and frameworks, and need to test them in test apps).

Does anyone know of a way to bypass or disable Apple's restrictions?

How do I uninstall AltStore apps?

1) First, uninstall the sideloaded app/game you do not want anymore. Do normal delete like how normally you remove apps from the iOS. 2) Open AltStore from your iOS device, under “My Apps” tab, ensure the app/game you want the app id to be removed is not part of “InActive”. If it is, do activate the app/game.

It is a kind of limit of free developer accounts, but you could figure out a solution for that:

1- Navigate to the project of any previous application that have been installed on the same device has the problem with .

2- Open Build Settings tab for the app project in Xcode .

3- Search for Bundle ID and copy it .

4- Open up your current app that has the problem and navigate to the same place > Paste and Replace the current Bundle ID with the old one.

5- Run the app.

Same thing happened to me. I presume it's some kind of a new limit that Apple has put on "non-paying" developers, and that it limits you to 10 apps in 7 days.

Edit - To resolve this, I'll just make a random apple dev ID...
