Older internet entries say there were free accounts we could use. I'm trying to create my .ipa apple installation file without using a payable developer account. In my case, I wisht to create the file for my own personal use. Is there a way to get a free developer account? I have tried by going to https://developer.apple.com/ and for individuals, payment is required. It's been many days since I sent questions to apple and no reply has been received. What can I do?
