 ### iOS / iPadOS
 
-* With xcode you can't build a release version without our cert. :-/ Use `flutter run --profile` to have a working version on your iOS device.
+* Have a Mac with Xcode installed, and set up for Xcode-managed app signing
+* If you want automatic app installation to connected devices, make sure you have Apple Configurator installed, with the Automation Tools (`cfgutil`) enabled
+* Set a few environment variables
+    * FLUFFYCHAT_NEW_TEAM: the Apple Developer team that your certificates should live under
+    * FLUFFYCHAT_NEW_GROUP: the group you want App IDs and such to live under (ie: com.example.fluffychat)
+    * FLUFFYCHAT_INSTALL_IPA: set to `1` if you want the IPA to be deployed to connected devices after building, otherwise unset
+* Run `./scripts/build-ios.sh`

+If something later in the build explodes, and looks possibly related to App IDs:
+1. Ask Xcode nicely
+    - Open ios/Runner.xcodeproj in Xcode
+    - Go to the Signing & Capabilities tab
+    - Ask it to repair the certificates/register app IDs/etc
+2. Fix it yourself
+    - Go to https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list
+    - Ensure that Xcode created the App ID successfully (for fluffychat.app and fluffychat.app.FluffyChat-Share)
+    - Under "App Groups", make sure it registered your group
+    - Back "App IDs", check that the App Group was added to each App ID's entitlements
