<framework src="MyEmbeddedFramework.framework" custom="true" embed="true" />
embed=true must be paired with custom=true for the framework to be installed in the Embedded Binaries section of the Xcode project.

Frameworks in the Embedded Binaries section will not be statically linked to your project, but will be loaded dynamically. The frameworks will also be packaged in your app bundle under the "Frameworks" folder.
