So debug builds of iOS apps are built with an entitlement that allows the debugger to attach to it, and if that entitlement is not present, the debugger will not be able to attach (and because we want to prevent something nefarious from going on then we kill it.) That entitlement is absent from release builds, which is why you can't debug other people's released apps. That's the only thing I can think of that would make something that can finger-launch die when you try to launch it in the debugger.
