A couple of questions about Live Caller ID lookup

Hello I have a few questions regarding the Live Caller ID lookup feature

First question:

The documentation for Live Caller ID Lookup says that "the system does not use private relay when the application is installed directly from XCode.This allows the application & the service deployment to be tested before filling out the onboarding form and setting up private relay." What is the situation regarding development distribution signed .ipas? Would they be able to bypass the private relay too?

Second question:

Is there anyway an application could dynamically switch which blocking dataset gets used? The use case for this is providing the option to the user whether a set of numbers gets blocked or not. If the OS makes a blocking lookup and an identity lookup, then if these always map to the same blocking dataset then it means the blocking behaviour is the same for every user there is.
That means whatever decisions the server makes as to what numbers to block applies to every user. Whether to block a number of not is a fuzzy decision, it would be good if users had the ability to decide for themselves if fuzzy numbers should be blocked or not rather than have that imposed upon them.

Third question:

It looks from the way things are set up that 2) is not actually possible. If that is the case then will it be permitted for two endpoints to be registered with Apple? (then the app could implement more than one Live Caller ID extension which provide different blocking behaviour)?

Thank you very much.

Hi! I think your dataset questions might be answered in a different thread here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/760777

In terms of giving users some ability to provide customized feedback for blocked calls, that might make for a great feedback report for future consideration.

Forgot to ask if there are any limits imposed on the size of the databases. Our dataset of phone numbers to identify/block is hundreds of millions.
