Possible to share iOS App Groups between an Enterprise team and a standard team?

Apple offers a few different account types. Standard at $100/year and Enterprise at $300 /year.

I have both, and want to share information between the deployed apps, perhaps using App Groups.

Is this possible in iOS ?

Solution

  • That's not possible, because app groups are only shared within a single development team.

    The com.apple.security.application-groups (available in OS X v10.7.5 and v10.8.3 and later) allows multiple apps produced by a single development team to share access to a special group container.
