Install development app version alongside production on same iOS device? [closed]

I have an app that's currently in the AppStore which I keep on my phone to show users and others who might be interested. At the same time I'm developing the next version of the app on the same phone. I would love to be able to have the two apps installed on the same device side-by-side.

What is the prescribed / least hacky way of making that happen? Is this possible at all? Ideally this would be as automated as possible with no manual renaming required before each deployment.

Thanks a bunch!

How do I install two versions of the same app on my iPhone?

One way to do this is with the App Library. With an app already placed on your home screens, go to the App Library, locate the same application and long-press to drag it. You can then place it onto a home screen and your existing icon will not be removed. iOS 15 also enables drag-and-drop for apps in Spotlight search.

Can I upload a new build with same version after Apple's app review is done?

After creating a new version you can submit it with your latest build & also update all the details which you desire & all those will be reviewed & made live once apple review those. Can't I add new build under existing version ? @pcj No you can't do that.

Can an iOS app open another app?

Basic Swift Code for iOS AppsiOS Allows us to open some applications with some links or other ways from our app, like dialing a number when clicked on it, or writing a mail with some static body or writing a SMS. But this is limited to some applications, not every app can be opened from within an application.

Yes it is possible you just have to sign the development app with a different app id.

For example: if you have in store com.myCompany.myWonderfulApp use for dev com.myCompany.myWonderfulAppDevelopment
