iOS Device Settings

Before going through the process of configuring iOS devices to run on GigaFox, go through the following settings adjustments.

NOTE: The specific path to access a feature's settings may vary depending on the device's iOS version.

'Trust This Computer' Alert

All iOS devices must "trust" the computer to which they are connected. To "trust" the communication between the computer and device:

  1. Plug device into the computer.
  2. On the physical device, click Trust on the Trust this Computer? alert.

Reduce Screen Brightness

To reduce battery usage without affecting the display:

  1. Open Settings > General > Accessibility Display Accommodations.
  2. Scroll to Auto-Brightness and toggle Off.
  3. Slide the brightness slider to the lowest setting.

Enable UI Automation

Beginning with iOS 8, devices must enable UI Automation.

To enable UI Automation:

  1. Connect device and launch Xcode.
  2. On the device, open Settings > Developer.
  3. Toggle on Enable UI Automation.

NOTE: The Developer settings option will also be available when a device connects to deviceControl.

Apple Provisioning Profile

Before an Apple device can be used with GigaFox, it must be associated with an Apple Provisioning Profile created through the Apple Developer Program.
To setup an iOS device, go to the iOS Provisioning Profile Process guide.
