When using in a shell script or email client that supports raw URIs, use: SSL/TLS Mandate: As noted in the keyword "https,"

1. SSL/TLS Mandate: As noted in the keyword "https," the manifest URL must be served over HTTPS with a valid certificate. Self-signed certificates often result in a "Cannot connect to [server]" error unless the user manually installs the root CA profile on their device.
2. Code Signing: The application (.ipa file) referenced in the manifest must be digitally signed with a valid Apple Developer certificate. If the certificate has expired, is revoked, or is invalid, the installation will fail.
3. Trusted Sources: In modern versions of iOS, even after installing an app via itms-services, the user must manually trust the developer certificate in the Settings app (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management) before the app can be launched.
