What happens when the Notification Service Extension provisioning profile expires?

I am managing provisioning profiles manually, including the one for my Notification Service Extension.

I am wondering what happens if the provisioning profile for the Notification Service Extension expires.

I have two types of apps:

An App Store-distributed app An Enterprise-distributed app Can someone clarify how the expiration of the Notification Service Extension's provisioning profile affects both cases? Will the extension stop functioning, or will it continue to work normally?

I can only offer a definitive answers to the App Store side of this

  • App Store checks your credentials when you submit the app.

  • It then re-signs the app with credentials that don’t expire.

We talk about this more in:

I don’t support enterprise distribution but my understanding is that it requires that the app be signed with valid credentials for it to run.

In the case of app extensions, all of the apps to both the app and any embedded appexes.
