iOS Question Install to my real iOS device - not debug version

When I try to install a release App on my real device (which I have done successfully previously) I get the "Installing..." progress Pie and it gets part way through eg 60% then restarts, over and over.

Turns out it was due to Distribution instead of Development Certificates. Using #Release is no use as they are both release version, is there another way to automatically switch?

#If STORE AND RELEASE
#CertificateFile: distribution.cer
#End If
#If RELEASE and NOT STORE  ?????
#CertificateFile: development.cer
#End If

Excellent. However what conditional symbol can be used at the same time, for non-store (local device) release?

Use the STORE build when you want to publish the app to the app store. In all other cases use the debug certificate.

Ah, sorry I assumed STORE was predefined in B4i like RELEASE. I already have 6 build configurations with 100's of #if , so to duplicate each build configuration and change all the #if is not practical.
Could you use the "compilation mode" combo box (like it is in B4a), as in B4i it is always locked on "debug". If you have 3 options - Debug, Local device and Store, which set predefined conditional compilation tags so they don't interfere with user created ones?

Also, to share code modules between b4i and b4a, how can the "DesignText" cater for both, I can't get conditional compilation tags to work in this hidden section? -

Type=StaticCode
Version=2.51
ModulesStructureVersion=1
B4i=true
@EndOfDesignText@

Please start a new thread for a new question.

B4A release option is identical to Tools - Build Server - Build release app. It doesn't matter whether it is selected in the combo box or the menu option.

You don't need to change any code. Just create another one with the symbols relevant for store submission and also add the STORE symbol.
