Reset Devices list - can we add back the same device

Hello,

We've reached the 100 development devices limit at https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/devices/list

We're soon renewing our membership and will use the opportunity to reset the device list, as mentioned at https://developer.apple.com/support/renewal/

If you renew your membership, you and any Admins will be given the option to remove registered test devices that you no longer use for development when you first sign in to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles at the start of your new membership year. You can remove specific devices, remove all devices to restore your available device count to 100 per device type, or continue without removing any devices. Once you complete this process, new devices can be added.

We don't want to and can't cherry-pick the devices we want to keep (it would be too complicated), so instead we would like to completely wipe the list and start from scratch, so we have our 100 limit back.

But then I am wondering, if a device is removed (via the reset, not disabled), can it be then added back after the reset process. Some of the development devices we've been using will still be used after this.

=> Is it a device removal? Or is it a device lifetime ban? Can we add back a device once it's been removed via the reset?

Thank you

Can we add back a device once it's been removed via the reset?

Yes. Your plan to wipe the list and then re-add individual devices as needed will work fine.
