I am using Appium on MAC device to control or automate some iphone functionalities . lets say to trigger phone call or open camera or swipe ..etc The question is do i need a developer license ? given that i am not a developer , i just want to control the iphone. And if i need developer license , should i pay the 99 USD OR i can use the free account for that simple purpose ? What is did is that i can successfully open camera on ios simulator , but for real device, it gives provisioning profile error. Thanks

To test your app on real device you need to have apple developer provision profile and sign WebDriverAgent (that Appium use to remote control iOS devices) with it.
You can read about Appium & iOS Real Device configuration here
Regarding your notice of triggering phone call & camera: you can't invoke inbuilt application in iOS using Appium as it requires the Xcode code signing identity to invoke applications.
If thats what you want to do, you better switch to XCUITest
