If anyone else has this issue, make sure you have registered the device you're testing on and that device is also registered to the provision you're using

I have had exactly same issue and got it resolved by following below steps.

Issue description To clarify, issue (app not installing properly - icon disappears after installation) was occurring only on iOS device (Android version of the same app build was working fine).

Source of issue In my case issue was cased by the fact that test iPad device I was using, was not registered (added) to the Developer Provisioning Profile my app was using.

Lesson learn That means iOS Developer App can not be installed on any given test device until this device is added to the Provisioning Profile (PP). Important information also is that once device is added to PP, new PP needs to be generated and App has to be signed using this new PP to complete handshake.

Steps to fix

1. Login to Apple Developer https://developer.apple.com
2. Navigate to 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles' -> 'Devices'
3. After verifying you device is not listed here, Click on '+'
4. Fill out 'Name' and 'UDID' of you test device and click 'Continue'
5. Once device is added to the list, generate new PP by navigating to 'Provisioning Profiles' -> 'Development' -> Click on you existing PP -> 'Edit' -> check you newly added device in 'Devices' section -> click 'Generate' -> 'Download' -> 'Done'
6. Use your newly downloaded PP to sign the new Development App
7. Install new App on the test device
8. Celebrate success

Answer 5

I experienced the same problem with one of my in-house apps. The reason was that bundle ID in application manifest was specified incorrectly. After I fixed bundle ID, the application installs normally.

Answer 6

Is the device's OS version below the app's Deployment Target OS level?

If so, lower the app's Deployment Target in the Ad Hoc Build settings for the Target, or upgrade the device's OS.
