Profile belongs to a different bundle ID (usually an extension)

iOS / Xcode · last reviewed 2026-11-10

The error looks like this

error: Provisioning profile "com.acme AppStore" has app ID "com.acme", which does not match the bundle ID "com.acme.widget".

Why it happens

The app's profile is being applied to an extension target (widget, notification service, etc.).

How to fix it

Create a separate profile for the extension's bundle ID.
Set PROVISIONING_PROFILE_SPECIFIER per target (xcconfig or Build Settings), not globally.
With fastlane: call sigh/match once per app_identifier.
