How are iOS apps distributed and transferred if I want to give to a client for review?

Question

iOS

Good afternoon. Made a project for a customer for Android and iOS platforms. For Android, everything is clear. We write the code, generate keys, build the release and build, and the customer can check on his device both debug and release versions without Google Play.
The question is slightly, perhaps stupid, but I do not have an iOS device on hand. I also built the iOS version of the project, I have an Apple developer license and he signed up with a bang through XCode, then I archived the project. I go to Windows > Organizer and here I have a project in * .xcarchive format, which I have to export somewhere, as in the photo

I need to be able to simply translate the project into the .ipa format, which can be installed by a client without the App Store. Since it is signed, I understand correctly that on an .ios device it can be installed from a USB flash drive or by downloading from a link not from the App Store, as in the case of Android?

You need to do the following:
1. Get the UDID of his devices from the client (you can read here: whatsmyudid.com )
2. Register these IDs on developer.apple.com (Account > Certificates,identifiers&profiles > Devices)
3. In the same place in the Provisioning profiles section change the profile under which you are building the application by checking the boxes next to the desired devices
4. Download and install the profile (just double-click, xcode will open, but will not tell you anything)
5. In the export window (in your screenshot) select Ad Hoc and export with a new profile
