Even i was facing the same issue.  
Figuered out that while creating the build the build the developer needs to sign the build.  
Steps followed by me:  
1.Select Project-\>Build settings and add required details under code signing identity(Provisioning profile and developer certificate).  
2.Select Target-\>Build settings and same steps.  
3.Then build the app. ![](https://discuss.appium.io/uploads/default/606/82354a7209425d87.png)
