For the More Curious: Running an Application on a Device
Running apps on the simulator is useful, but it is not a substitute for running them on a hardware device. Hardware devices have additional capabilities (cameras, for example) and the performance of apps can vary between the simulator and a hardware device.
You will need an Apple Developer Program account to run apps on a device and submit apps to the App Store.

You can enroll in the Apple Developer Program at developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/.
