I am working on my final year project, a mobile workout app using Flutter, and I want to integrate HealthKit for data collection and display.

Do I need a paid Apple Developer Program membership to use HealthKit and showcase my app on a physical iPhone for my final presentation?

I found information suggesting a free developer account might suffice but mentioned a 7-day app expiration and potential data loss upon rebuilding. Can someone clarify the validity and limitations of using a free developer account for this purpose?

Hey ;-),

you can use your app on a physical iPhone (if it is in developer mode) WITHOUT a paid Apple Developer Program membership.

But after a week or two you will see the message "app not available" if you click on the app on your physical device. In that case you have to deploy your app using XCode on your device again.

I haven't use HealthKit yet so I can't provide any information about it

Hope that helps ;-)
