Stop Using iPhone For Development

Tags:

So I plugged in an iPhone, and pressed the big Use Device For Development button, and now I want to disable that, as I no longer need it.

The Developer item in Settings.app on the device is annoying. How do I stop using it for development?

Can I do iOS development without iPhone?

iOS can only be run on Apple's own devices, including the iPhone and iPad. We can run Mac on window machines using VMWare or Hackintosh, but these are not recommended for iOS coding purposes. So basically, as an iOS developer, you will need a Mac for the development/debugging/testing of an iOS app.

How do I stop being a developer?

You can disable the Developer options and hide the menu by opening Settings, and then tapping Developer options. Tap the switch at the top of the screen to turn off Developer options.

Hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo. Once restarted you will no longer see the Developer entry in Settings.app. You will also need to ignore the device in Xcode or it will just activate the tools again the next time you connect your iPhone.
