General Review

So the guide is complete, but to use the newly installed app on your iPhone/iPad, you need to go to Settings > General > Device Management & Configuration > Trust apps installed via your account Apple ID account.

Using Sideloadly is said to be the simplest way to install IPA on Iphone or Ipad. However, its weakness is that the certificate is only valid for 7 days with a free Apple ID account. So you are forced to reinstall the app or use the developer apple account to get the certificate validity for 1 year.
