      I managed to successfully load this app to my iPad 3 (9.1) on my first try. No pop up requests for location or notifications were made, they were turned on automatically. Also, no prompt for security clearance to make the app open, but I knew to manually accept my profile.

      Unfortunately, when I attempted to load it to my iPhone 6 (9.1) Xcode threw its toys out of the pram. It crashed with a multitude of errors on two separate installs and I had to delete and re-download the files from here, twice. On my third go I got the app onto my iPhone, but after the splash page it went black. I could exit the app, no problem. I have deleted it and tried twice more. Each time I am left with the black screen and no explanation. I am looking forward to the fix.

        Reset everything, started from scratch from a clean download from this site... sideloaded onto my iPhone 6 again. Still no joy. :s

          Oh, and using Xcode 7.1.1 (7B1005), downloaded today. That is three times I've successfully side loaded the app onto my phone, only for it to go black after the splash screen. I really am keen to get the app working you see!

            Device: iPhone 5C
            Firmware: iOS 9.1 (13B143)
            Computer: MacBook Air El Capitan Version 10.11.1
            Xcode: Version 7.1.1 (7B1005)

            Tried 3 times but still get the black screen. No chance to allow/deny prompts. The developer profile is trusted. There is no options in the App Settings to allow location or notifications.

            I successfully loaded f.lux on my iPhone 6 Plus and friend's iPhone 5S, both running iOS 9.1, using the same computer and version of Xcode. But the my friend's iPhone 5C can't get past the black screen.

                I was finally able to successfully install on my iphone 6 plus.

                here's what I did:

                Product-->Clean
                Command+R and it installed correctly.
                I hope this helps.

                  That worked for me too: Product-> Clean
                  Command+R

                    I was seeing this same behavior on iPhone 6, iOS 9.2 Beta 3 and Xcode Beta 7.2. I had to do the Product > Clean, then the build worked perfectly!

                      The Product> Clean trick worked for me too. Now running on both my devices.

                      It is not running well, though, and during the evening it would not accept my choice of colour temperature... had to disable :(

                      Do you think we will still get any fixes for this, or is it dead in the water now? Such a pity

                      EDIT: That is the broken 'bedtime mode' kicking in. 'Set to dawn' is the advised fix

                        I loaded f.lux on my iphone 6 running iOS 9.1 to test and ensure that this worked before I un-jailbroke my iPad to update it to 9.1. Worked flawlessly on iPhone, but experienced the black screen after install issue when loading on iPad.

                        tl;dr - Doing product -> clean (⇧⌘k) then rebuilding (⌘r) fixed the issue.

                          SOLUTION:
                          I had this experience today, I installed iFlux on my old iPhone 6, then switched to my new iPhone 6s and installed it receiving the same issue posted.
                          After verifying the install, reinstalling, trying an alternate profile and verifying the location services I did the following.

                          Create a unique copy of iFlux XCode code project for the new device and go through the process again.

                          This fixed my problem.

                          So the 4 things that need to be verified for the install to work properly.

                          • ensure that you are using iOS version 9.1 (or later)
                          • trust the application installer
                          • enable location services
                          • Create a unique copy of the iFlux XCode code project for each device you plan to installing it on. Then use that code project instance to install on the new device ... note: you may need to use unique names for each version (I did this by default), I may have also cleaned and rebuilt the solution

                            Fixed it for me too. Created a new xcode project for my ipad instead of using the same one as my iphone and gave it a different bundle identifier.

                              deleting from my iPad, cleaning project in Xcode and rebuilding fixed this for me.

                              Me too!

                              1. delete app form iPhone.
                              2. cleaning Xcode
                              3. rebuild and install to iPhone again.

                                Product->Clean worked for me also. 6S+ 9.3.3
