If only it was easier to do. 😢 I've actually stopped using LC much because the process of making apps that people can run without fuss has become ridiculous. I'm still hoping for a solution that isn't so aggressively hostile! The current situation feels like a direct threat to LiveCode the company, as it must be putting off more than a few people from becoming or staying customers.
You need to talk to Apple about that. On iOS it's even harder. But as Matthias said, the difficulty has nothing to do with LC or the app itself. Whether created with LC or any other languge, the distribution process is the culprit. In the name of security, Apple has put numerous roadblocks in front of developers before a Mac app can be easily used by someone else.
I highly recommend Matthias' helper tool, it takes a big chunk of irritation out of the equation. Someone mentioned there should be a plugin. Just put his stack into the plugins folder and there you are.
(And on iOS it's even worse; you can't distribute to the public at all except through the App Store which has even stricter limitations on what developers must do before the app is accepted. It can take days just to work through everything required for submission.)
