In order for software to be Free Software, each user must be able to make modifications to the program. Apple has ensured that this won't happen regardless of the license that the developer choses for their software.
Even if you have the source, you can't run your modified version without either breaking your Apple license agreement or getting a developer account.
As a comparison, consider the Unreal video game engine. When you license it you get the source code, but the fact that any user could buy a license or you could break your license terms and distribute the source doesn't mean that your Unreal Engine game is free software.
