4D for iOS and 4D for Android require a specific minimum configuration.
System requirements
System requirements are the same as 4D's minimum system requirements.
8GB of RAM is recommended.
4D
Development: 4D with a 4D Developer Pro licence

Apple Device Developer Mode
As of iOS 16 and Xcode 14, you must enable the Developer Mode on your device to be able to develop and debug.
You need essentially to toggle the "Developer Mode" switch in the "Settings" application of your device. More information is provided in the Apple documentation.
