You need to make an ad hoc build which your friends can install on their phones. It's a bit of a pain, but basically, the procedure goes like this:
- Go to the Apple Developer Center's Provisioning Portal and register their device ID's. You will need to have your friends give you their device ID's, which can be done by clicking on the "Serial Number" field in iTunes on the device page.
- Generate a distribution certificate for ad hoc distribution in the Provisioning Portal under Provisioning -> Distribution
- Download that certificate yourself (the .mobileprovision file) and install it into Xcode by dragging it on the Xcode icon.
- Duplicate your "Release" build setting in Xcode for an Ad Hoc build. Everything should be the same as Release, except in the "Code Signing" section you will want to select the new Ad Hoc profile generated in step 3.
- Make an Ad Hoc build by going to Build -> Build and Archive
- When Xcode brings up the organizer window, right click on the archived build and make a .ipa file by saving it to disk
- Tell your friends to drag the mobile provisioning profile to the iTunes icon (or with File -> Open for windows users) to install it on their phone.
- Tell your friends to drag the .ipa file you made into iTunes, and sync their phones
Note. To make the Archieve of the IOS project make sure Device is connected to Mac and device name is selected in target.
