Getting an Apple Developer account

As you have seen in earlier chapters, all you need to test your app on a device is a free Apple ID. But the apps will only work for a few days, and you will not be able to add advanced features such as Sign in with Apple or upload your app to the App Store. For that, you need a paid Apple Developer account. Follow these steps to purchase an Individual/Sole Proprietorship Apple Developer account:

1. Go to https://developer.apple.com/programs/ and click on the Enroll button.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click Start Your Enrollment.
3. Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
4. On the Trust this browser? screen, click Trust only if you are the only person using this browser, otherwise, click Not Now. This is to safeguard your account information.
5. Click Continue enrollment on the web >.
6. On the Confirm your personal information screen, enter your personal information and click Continue when done.
