Hello. I'm seeing an inconsistent behavior where breakpoints I set in my (Swift) iOS app behave normally when I'm debugging on a device or on a simulator running iOS 17.x, but when I try using simulators of iOS 16 or 15 the breakpoints get ignored completely. I also observe that the breakpoints remain solid blue and do NOT adopt the dotted blue outline, as experienced by other users. I've seen a few posts on here and on SO about the general issue of ignored breakpoints (with no conclusive answer AFAIK), but I haven't seen any where the behavior varies with the SDK being used. The behavior is repeatable and predictable (within the same app at least). I am not adding the breakpoints after building/running, and I'm sure the logic reaches the lines with the breakpoints (and again, whenever I switch to an iOS 17 simulator, execution does pause as expected with the exact same breakpoints). Things I've tried and looked into: Clean up project build folder Delete and re-install simulators (iOS 16.4 and 15.5) Deleted the entire derived data directory, as well as the CoreSimulator one. Confirm the build configuration is Debug, and the "Debug executable" option is checked. inspect various build flags mentioned in other posts: {Swift compiler - Code generation - Optimization level - Debug: -0none; Debug information format: DWARF (I also tried DWARF with dSYM with no impact)}. Most of my settings are on the plain vanilla/out of the box side, with only a couple of SPM dependencies, and I've been maintaining the same app for about 5 years and don't think I've come across this behavior before. Currently using Xcode 15.1. Deployment target is 14.0. Thank you.

I am a developer working on an iOS enterprise application. When I deployed the release version to my device, it crashes upon startup. It works fine in debug mode on my device. The app is an upgraded version of Xamarin Form to .NET MAUI. I have attached a crash report. I would appreciate any help/insights on how to resolve. --John

Hi, I work at OneSignal, a third-party SDK, and have the following two crash reports submitted by a client for the same issue. Because the crash originates from our SDK, even if the root cause may be elsewhere, the onus is on our team to try to resolve this crash. Additionally, my information is limited as this is not our own crash report. I'm trying to figure out why this crash happens and how we can address it within our SDK. Crash Reported: Fatal Exception: NSInvalidArgumentException [NSMutableDictionary __addObject:forKey:]: object cannot be nil Context: Our SDK makes a call to [NSUserDefaults(NSUserDefaults) objectForKey:] on the standardUserDefaults and passes in a non-null key. It appears further up the call stack, a null value is being added to a dictionary. I assume this is the innards of how the search list is generated. Additional Information: The client states that it seems to happen only once per user and the scale is not extremely high but it is increasing. They are unsure what happened and when. They don't have much information about the devices except it has happened on iOS 18.

Hi everyone, I'm facing an issue where I cannot write a file to a shared App Group container in my tvOS app when running on a real device. My code works perfectly on the simulator, but fails on a physical device with a permissions error. I’ve set up an App Group with a custom identifier (e.g., group.<my.identifier>), and it’s correctly configured in the Capabilities section of Xcode for both my main app and widget targets. Here’s the code I’m using to save a test file: func saveTestFile() { guard let groupURL = FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: "group.<my.identifier>") else { print("Couldn't access the Group URL.") return } let containerURL = groupURL.appendingPathComponent("Library", isDirectory: true) if FileManager.default.isWritableFile(atPath: containerURL.path) { print("Directory IS writable") } else { print("Directory IS NOT writable") } let fileURL = containerURL.appendingPathComponent("test.txt") let content = "Hello App Group!" do { try content.write(to: fileURL, atomically: true, encoding: .utf8) print("File test.txt is saved at: \(fileURL.path)") } catch { print("Error while saving the file: \(error)") } } Console: Directory IS NOT writable Error while saving the file: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don’t have permission to save the file “test.txt” in the folder “”." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup//Library/test.txt, NSURL=file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup//Library/test.txt, NSUnderlyingError=0x14387fbe0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted"}} I’ve tried saving the file in different subdirectories within the App Group container: Directly in groupURL (root of the container). In groupURL.appendingPathComponent("Library"). In groupURL.appendingPathComponent("Caches"). Do you have any ideas what is the problem? Thanks in advance for any help!

After updating to iOS 18.4, our web application (with service workers) crashes on devices that accessed it prior to the update. This issue also affects hybrid mobile apps using the same web application; reinstalling the app resolves it by refetching and reinstalling service workers. Debugging is challenging because clearing the cache or reinstalling the app fixes the problem, and no useful error logs are available. Has anyone encountered similar crashes related to service workers after an iOS update and have any insights into the cause?

Hi all, I'm developing a simple Finder Sync Extension, using Xcode 16.3. When running in Debug with Xcode, everything works fine. Instead, when compiling in Release and launching the containing app (by double-clicking on it), the Extension is not recognized (neither loaded) by the system. The only difference between Debug and Release stands in Signing configuration: Debug: Release: As you can see, in Release I'm using a Provisiong Profile, configured with my company's Developer ID. I'm wondering if Capabilities and Entitlements are not what is needed by my app. Anyway, I have no idea what the issue is. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you in advance _Alex

Hi, there's this point at which a beginner needs to beg for help.

Hi, everyone I have an app already in production that uses SwiftUI's lifecycle (paired with an AppDelegate). Due to some specific behaviour of the app, we decided to migrate the app to use UIKit's lifecycle, adding the corresponding SceneDelegate to the app, as well as modifying the Info.plist file accordingly to accommodate to these new changes. Although everything seems to work when installing the app from zero, when installing it on top of another version, the screen goes black and the user cannot interact with the app at all unless they reinstall it completely. As I've read online, iOS is reusing the window configuration from the previous execution of the app. I know this because the AppDelegate's application(application:connectingSceneSession:options) is not being called when coming from a previous version of the app. I would love to know what can I do to make this work because, as you may understand, we cannot ask our user base to reinstall the application. Thank you very much.

Hello everyone, I’m experiencing a crash in my iOS application that’s occurring predominantly on devices running iOS 16.6.0.

Hello, I am experiencing crash on TopShelf and I checked all the crashlogs, but I don't know how to interpret it. I see only addresses in the trace logs, so it's really hard to understand what's going on. Is there a way how to symbolicate frames 5 - 17? Does anybody have an idea, what can be wrong?

Hi, I’m encountering an issue while using xctrace & instruments to profile an application on macOS. Specifically, when trying to record a trace using the CPU Profiler template, I get the following errors: Failed to start the recording: configureHardwareCounters: Failed set kpc configuration: Operation not permitted. Unexpected failure: Couriers have returned unexpectedly. macOS Version: 15.3.1 Chip: Apple M4 Pro Xcode Version: Xcode 16.2

I have a few crash report from TestFlight with this context and nothing else. No symbols of my application. Crash report is attached. crashlog.crash It crashes at 16H25 (local time paris) and a few minutes after (8) I see the same user doing task in background (they download data with a particular URL in BGtasks) with a Delay that is consistant with a background wait of 5 or 7 minutes. I have no more information on this crash and by the way Xcode refuses to load it and shows an error. ( I did a report via Xcode for this).

I have an issue when i use external tester with a public link and emails. Test fly is well installed but when i have to open the app, it just charge as seen in the screen.

Background I have a SwiftUI app that uses OSLog and the new Logger framework. In my SwiftUI views, I would like to use something like Self._logChanges() to help debug issues. After some trial and error, I can see the messages appear in the System console log for the app I am debugging using the com.apple.SwiftUI subsystem. Problem I'd like to see those same messages directly in Xcode's console window so I can filter them as needed. How do I do that? Thanks! -Patrick

When the following structure: NavigationStack { ScrollView { NavigationLink(...) } } is presented inside a sheet in SwiftUI, the scroll drag gesture and the link tap gesture collide. If the user happens to begin a scroll gesture on a link, the link will open the moment the finger is lifted, no matter how far it is from its initial touchdown. The issue has already been found (this stack overflow post from 2019), but no solution was provided. I've already filed a report (FB17034020). In the meantime, is there any way to override the touch gesture detection in any manner? This issue is quite inconvenient from a user perspective.

Pasting either plain or styled text into any TextEditor results in a memory leak. import SwiftUI struct EditorView: View { @State private var inputText: String = "" var body: some View { VStack{ TextEditor(text: $inputText) .frame(minHeight: 150) } } }

Hello, I need a little bit of help. My game keeps crashing on launch no matter what I do. I’ve tried running it in Xcode on my Mac, on my iPhone, and through TestFlight, but I get the same result every time. I’ve tried everything I could find on the internet, and nothing worked. Asking here is my last resort because I’m completely stuck. The game runs fine in Unity, but not so much in Xcode. Can someone help me figure out what I’m doing wrong?Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is the error log I found by connecting my iPhone to my Mac.

I was just having a look at some crash reports downloaded by Xcode, and I noticed the same wrong pattern I already mentioned here: the crash reports indicate that method A calls method B, which is impossible. In the first crash report below, method MainViewController.showSettings seems to be called by ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder, which is impossible. ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder is a context menu action in a modal window, and MainViewController.showSettings is in a completely different window and the two methods have no relation whatsoever. In the second crash report below, MainViewController.setSortMode is triggered by the press of a button (and nothing else) but seems to be called by OtherViewController.copy that can be triggered by a context menu (or keyboard shortcut). The two methods have no relation whatsoever. The rest of the stack trace confirm that it's indeed the button that was pressed. This seems to me like a quite serious bug in how macOS creates crash reports. 1.crash 2.crash
