I do not want to sell my iOS apps on Apple Store, but?


i trying port few of educational apps have created students ios through director 12 trial version. have been director customer 20 years. have been running software on windows. find must use mac develop ios , wil not able use of xtras. in addition, have gone apple site obtain developer signature or whatever is needed publish apps , found have provide credit card , pay $99 become developer (before decide go forward ios development).  have 2 big problems this: 1) requirement , cost should disclosed adobe in director product literature. ethical obligation transparency. , 2) not understand how apple can demand developers want develop app platform must provide them personal credit card information before buy or pay developer if don't want one. there fundamentally wrong these requirements. want develop few apps students , don't feel should forced provide personal information or pay unnecessary fees. there way not (and create few test apps) or must port android , windows tablet instead?

it isn't $99, $99 every year.  if making apps apple device makes apple developer, whether director doing bulk of apple-specific development work or not.  if don't want apple developer don't make apps apple device?  can't copy test-signed apps unprovisioned ios device (or @ least won't run), means way ios apps on students ipads either manually provision every single ipad tedious or make apps available in ios app store (the cost students download , use app free if set price nothing) , students can download apps anywhere , updates without needing provision ipads.  worth $99 per year.  every operating system (os) , hardware has own restrictions , limitations set company develops os , hardware manufacturer, isn't job of adobe tell restrictions , limitations since can change @ time.  entire school single apple developer account share $99 per year wouldn't bad, otherwise sounds don't have $99 every year spare best go whatever os , hardware not restricted or limited in way requires pay yearly fee develop applications it.
