Hello,
I created an app for a company, which just wants to see some data about statistics etc.. In that app you have to provide an token/password to see the statistics. So no everyone as access to the data. I tried to push It on the App Store but Apple refused because It is a "app for buisness employees" and they said I should use Apple Buisness Manager.
However the company want to use the app on private devices for the employees (10-20 devices). On Android I just spread the apk but on iOS I need some different solution. Testflight is not an option because It deletes the build every 90 days and I need to push a new than again. Ad-Hoc requires the device ID which can be difficult for the employees (they want simple solution) and is also limited for 1 year on Ad-Hoc.
I heard about BYOD but how does this exactly work? Do I have to get the physical device and install some software first (not the solution the company wants)? Can you just add BYOD with email to Apple Buisness Manager? And I also assume I have to get "Enterprise" which costs something like 300 a year.
Best way would be Testflight (E-Mail send) without limitation of 90 days.

Thank you for your reply, unlisted app is pretty much what I need, I already contacted the support for this. However If for some reason It gets rejected:

I also heard of Microsoft App Center, where you can publish your App, too. Anyone got experience with this?
