I am new to this. I recently completed my first iPhone App and I am going through the process of creating the Provisioning Profile. I am stuck with the creation of the UDID. I would like to know a few simple things. I do not have an iPhone but I plan to get an iPad. Do I need to have an actual device in order to submit my App to be reviewed? Does the UDID require me to have one of those devices first? Can I use someone else's iPhone or iPad? On YouTube, someone mention about reading a number behind the iPhone or iPad and use it to create the UDID. There is a number behind there but it is extremely small, it is hard to believe that Apple expects you to use that number for something like this. I would appreciate some help. Thanks
UDID creation
Do you have an active paid Individual Developer Account?

You can't submit to the store without a provisioning profile. You can't create that without at least one connected device.

About Team Provisioning Profiles
Provisioning is the process of preparing and configuring an app to launch on devices and to use app services. <clip>
Xcode creates a team provisioning profile and its components as needed in your developer account. Xcode requests a development certificate for you if it’s missing. The development certificate is used in the team provisioning profile to identify you. A device must be registered to create a provisioning profile, so Xcode may ask you to connect an iOS or tvOS device.
