DriverKit Entitlements, one per App ID?

We have a DriverKit entitlement for our USB driver. We now wish to use this same driver with a variant of our existing application. Of course this application has its own separate App ID and will be published in the App Store alongside our existing application.

Will we need to go back to the well and ask Apple for another entitlement?

Additional capabilities may or may not be restricted to specific App IDs. The easy way to tell is:

  1. In Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles section of the Developer website, edit your existing App ID.

  2. Switch to the Additional Capabilities tab.

  3. Verify that the relevant capability is there.

  4. Now create a new App ID.

  5. And look in its Additional Capabilities tab.

If the capability shows up in the list, it’s not restricted to a specific App ID.
