Apple Developer, formerly Apple Developer Connection or ADC, is Apple Inc.'s developer network. It is designed to make available resources to help software developers write software for the macOS and iOS platforms
The Apple Developer Program is Apple's system to provide the tools and resources for building, sharing, and using apps for Apple products. Members of Apple's Developer Program can test apps on their own devices prior to submitting the App Store for distribution or sale. Developers also get access to beta releases of new OS and iOS versions.
The Loop app is not available for download in the App Store. It needs to be built and installed by the individual users. This means Loop users need to enroll as an individual (not an organization) in the Apple Developer Program in order to install the Loop app on their iPhone. There are two types of individual enrollment in the Developer Program; free and paid. You will need to have an Apple ID to sign up for in the Apple Developer Program.
