Hiding embedded.mobileprovision from IOS app

Question

I'm trying to resign ios app using my own certificate and after resign it it produce a file "embedded.mobileprovision". is there a way to delete this file or hide it?

I need the app to work after resigning it and hide/delete the "embedded.mobileprovision" file.

Answer 1

You cannot delete that file for two reasons:

1. It is owned by installd and not mobile, which you're running as.
2. Your app would no longer launch without it.

In order to "hide" it, the most reasonable approach would be to take a look at what syscalls the app uses to look for that file, and then inject a custom dylib to hook those syscall invocations and patch the returned data.
