title: Is it possible to distribute iOS app "in house" without Enterprise program?
body: <p>I know questions like this one have been asked over and over again but I couldn't find an answer that goes straight to the point.</p>
  
  <p>I have seen <a href="http://jeffreysambells.com/posts/2010/06/22/ios-wireless-app-distribution/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">guides</a> that seems to allow you to distribute your app OTA without having to be part of the Enterprise program.</p>
  
  <p>I also have seen some tricks where, if you don't have a SSL certificate in your hosting, you still can use dropbox to configure your "links". (<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20276907/enterprise-app-deployment-doesnt-work-on-ios-7-1">Enterprise app deployment doesn&#39;t work on iOS 7.1</a>)</p>
  
  <p>In summary I have used dropbox as it was indicated in one of the answers I found before and it totally worked. The problem is that I tried to test it in a different device and it didn't work (typical message </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><strong>Unable to Download App</strong>. xxxx could not be installed at this time.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I'm signing the app using a <strong>distribution certificate</strong> and I'm using a <strong>provisioning profile for distribution</strong>:</p>
  
  <p>I know it can sound pretty obvious that all that is meant to work only for the AppStore or ad-hoc distribution (this last one requires to collect all devices UDID and it's not what i'm looking for).</p>
  
  <p>I would like to know if it is definitely possible or not to distribute my apps "in-house" without having to be part of the Enterprise program. If true... what I'm doing wrong? </p>
