So, let me start with the causes of these failures: But when I do, the signing certificate status in Xcode shows as failed. Why is that? This post has more detail, but in basic terms, your app’s signing is created from two components: Your Entitlement.plist -> This is used to create the actual code-signature attached to your app bundle. The provisioning profile -> This is a file that we've signed and which is then embedded inside your app’s bundle. (Note: not all signed apps have/need one of these, but all DEXT do). The system validates the entitlement by comparing the entitlement values contained in those two files (your app’s code signature and its embedded provisioning profile). That's why the profile (#2) is signed by us - it proves we want your app to have the entitlement. Xcode checks that your app is properly signed by comparing the data in those values to ensure that they match, creating this failure when they don't match.
