No way to build ios preview without paid account?

github.com › expo › expo › discussions › 27489

Ok, looks like I figured out how to do this, so following steps are needed:

npx expo prebuild
open ios/YourProject.xcworkspace
Go to project settings "Signing & Capabilities" and select your team
Go to project settings "Signing & Capabilities" and remove "Push Notifications"
Click on top bar your project name, select "Edit Scheme", select "Build Configuration" - Release
Build bundle with npx expo export:embed --entry-file='node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js' --bundle-output='./ios/main.jsbundle' --dev=false --platform='ios'
In Xcode in Build phases -> Bundle React Native code and images -> Check off "For install builds only" if it's checked
Go to Xcode, select your connected device and run the project

I did many iterations, but this looks like fixed the problem for me.
Now I can test my app on my iPhone in release mode without need to connect to dev server.

I see still that `npx eact-native run-ios --mode Release --terminal terminal`` not working for some reason, fails to build.
