iOS .app bundle must be codesigned before creating an .ipa:

Error message

iOS .app bundle must be codesigned before creating an .ipa: {}

What it means

codesign --verify --deep --strict reported failure for the .app bundle about to be packaged into an .ipa. Apple requires a valid code signature inside .ipa archives, so the bundler bails with codesign's output instead of producing an invalid package.
