If you are an app and want to mark parts of your memory as executable, you need a special entitlement that requires a signature from Apple. Only a very small amount of OS-bundled apps (Safari for example) and no third-party app have this entitlement. This is a reason why for a long time web-views embedded into apps couldn't make use of JIT compiled JavaScript: Because the web view was loaded in-process with your app, there was no way to execute any of the compiled code. Only with WKWebView this was fixed by running the webview in a secondary process that has the necessary entitlements and then rendering the view inside of your process. Getting there took Apple quite some time though. Only static code loaded from disk is marked executable, but that's not writable in memory and it's only loaded into memory when it has a valid code signature signed by Apple. So unless you manage to get Apple to sign your dynamically loaded payload, even if you sneak the functionality past app-review, there's no way to execute it.
