Resolving a "Simulator runtime is not available" error
Some Macs recently received a macOS system update which disabled the simulator runtimes used by Xcode 15, including the simulators for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. If your Mac received this update, you will receive the following error message and will be unable to use the simulator: The com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime is not available. Domain: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code: 401 Failure Reason: runtime profile not found using "System" match policy Recovery Suggestion: Download the com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime from the Xcode To resume using the simulator, please reboot your Mac. After rebooting, check Xcode Preferences → Platforms to ensure that the simulator runtime you would like to use is still installed. If it is missing, use the Get button to download it again. The Xcode 15.3 Release Notes are also updated with this information.

iOS Enterprise App Build Showing “Requires iOS 26.0” Even Though Deployment Target Set to iOS 18.0
We’re facing an issue when trying to install an enterprise-distributed iOS app on devices running iOS 18.5. During installation, we receive this error message: “This iOS app requires a newer version of iOS. You need to update this iPhone to iOS 26.0 to install this app.” However, in Xcode 26.0.1, our app’s minimum deployment target is explicitly set to iOS 17.6. After adding this step and the app result is unable to install the app on ios 18.5 and message getting as per the above quotes. Kindly help me out this issues.

❗️SpeechAnalyzer.framework Not Found in Xcode 26 Beta 2 (17A5241o)
Hi everyone, I’m running into an issue trying to use the new SpeechAnalyzer framework announced at WWDC 2025. ❯ My Setup: • macOS: Sequoia 15.5 (Build 26.0 / macOS Tahoe Beta 26.0) • Xcode: 26.0 beta 2 (17A5241o) • Deployment Target: macOS 26.0 • Toolchain: Clang 17.0.0 (Apple) ❯ Problem: Despite following all setup requirements: • Setting macOS 26 as the deployment target • Using the latest Xcode 26 beta 2 • Running the correct developer toolchain (xcode-select is pointing to Xcode-beta) I still get the error: No such module 'SpeechAnalyzer' Additionally: • The SpeechAnalyzer.framework does not appear under /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/ • It is also not listed in the Link Binary with Libraries pane. ❯ What I’ve Tried: • Clean builds • Deleted DerivedData • Verified SDK installation paths • Reinstalled Xcode 26 beta 2 • find search for SpeechAnalyzer.framework returned nothing ❯ Request: Has anyone successfully used SpeechAnalyzer in Xcode 26 beta 2 on macOS Sequoia/Tahoe? Is there a separate SDK or seed profile required to access this framework? Would appreciate any guidance from Apple engineers or other beta testers. Thanks! — Lalit Lakhara

QR code scan deeplink not work in XCode test run?
Hi, I'm trying to figure out what is true here - if I am not in the correct forum please direct me :-) A. It is not possible to test a QR code scan that contains a deeplink into my iOS app from an XCoode build test run. In other words, The build must be published to Test Flight for the iOS's QR code scan sub-system to be able to process the deeplink into my app? If I am wrong about this, it sure would help with testing to be able to test directly from the local XCode build test. If so, can someone point me in the direction of what I would need to do for that? Thanks for your input either way!

How to Prevent Xcode from Automatically Generating Unnecessary "inputPaths" and "outputPaths" in project.pbxproj?
I’ve noticed that Xcode keeps automatically adding unnecessary inputPaths and outputPaths entries to my project.pbxproj file. These outputPaths don’t seem to serve any real purpose in my project and clutter the project file, sometimes causing unnecessary merge conflicts in version control. I’ve already checked I didn't change my project.pbxproj file, but Xcode still occasionally generates these outputPaths. I’m not using any custom build tools or plugins that should be modifying this. One thing I’ve observed is that this issue only occurs when Xcode is open. If I close Xcode, the problem does not happen. This makes me think it might be related to how Xcode manages or updates the project file in the background. My questions: Is there a way to completely disable Xcode from generating these outputPaths automatically? Are there any hidden settings, project configurations, or best practices to prevent this behavior? Has anyone else experienced this issue, and how did you resolve it? Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Xcode 26 / iOS 26 - XIB incorrectly references "HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc" causing build warnings
Hello, I'm encountering a persistent issue when building my project with Xcode 26 and iOS 26. The console shows errors related to font file references that don't actually exist in my project. GSFont: file doesn't exist - "file:///private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/...../HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc" After investigation, I found that the issue originates from XIB files incorrectly referencing HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc: <customFonts key="customFonts"> <array key="HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc"> <string>HiraginoSans-W3</string> </array> </customFonts> The problem appears to be triggered when setting UILabel fonts to "ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0" in Interface Builder, which causes the XIB to reference HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc. Interestingly, when I create a new project and use the same fonts ("ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0"), it does NOT automatically reference HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc. Here's what I've tried: ①Changed both UILabels' fonts to system font ②Verified in XIB Source Code that the .ttc references were gone ③Cleaned Build Folder ④Cleared DerivedData ⑤Restarted Xcode ⑥Set the labels back to "ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0" ⑦Checked XIB Source Code again - the non-existent .ttc references reappeared Even if I manually remove the customFonts references from the source code, they get regenerated as soon as I make any font changes in Interface Builder. I've also noticed that Xcode 16.1 has the same underlying issue, though it doesn't produce the console errors that Xcode 26 does. This seems to be a long-standing XIB issue, possibly related to reference caching. While new projects aren't affected, existing projects continue to maintain these incorrect references. My questions: How can I permanently resolve this issue in my existing project? What's the potential impact of these incorrect font references? Is there a way to clean up these cached references without affecting the rest of the project? Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Price in a Xcode synced StoreKit configuration file is not updated when I change it on App Store Connect and always shows the starting price
Hello, I've noticed the prices of my products in my Xcode synced StoreKit configuration are not updated when I change the price in App Store Connect. I tried to manually sync the file, to remove and add it again to my project but old initial prices are still used. In the screenshot below, the price is currently $2.99 but the file still uses the initial price of $1.99. It makes testing a little bit painful because I'm never sure which product is being shown. Is this a bug? Is there a way to get the live production App Store prices be used instead of the starting prices? I filed a feedback for this: FB17798486 Regards, Axel

iOS 26 CarPlay Widgets
My company's app has a few widgets and a couple of them we do not want to show up on CarPlay due to safety concerns when iOS 26 releases. I understand Apple's recommended way to prevent users from using your widget in CarPlay is to use the .disfavoredLocations([.carPlay], for: [.systemSmall]), and this puts your widget in the 'Other' section of the widgets. https://developer.apple.com/download/files/CarPlay-Developer-Guide.pdf However, this .carPlay widget location is only available in Xcode 26, and our app cannot be built on Xcode 26 yet due to some build errors. We are able to fix those build errors in a separate branch, but we won't be doing our official release builds on Xcode 26 until it is out of beta, which is usually right before iOS 26 officially releases to general audiences. We release our app versions on a monthly cadence, so the version that will be out when iOS 26 comes out is already in testing. Is there any existing way we can disable this widget on CarPlay so it does not appear to work when tapped? Currently, it opens our CarPlay app, but the CarPlay app does nothing with it. On the iPhone, when you tap the widget it opens our app and performs a function. We don't wan't to disable it on the iPhone, just when it's on CarPlay. We don't have time before the app release to implement the same functionality on our CarPlay app. I haven't found any reliable way to detect if the widget is running in the CarPlay location versus the iPhone home screen. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Xcode error: Missing target with GUID
I have been getting the following error intermittently (once it happens, then its consistent) when I try to build my app Showing Recent Errors Only Unable to resolve build file: BuildFile<b11862f281fd8c8287d499b4f0922a9c61c95323d2196ba877ed344a02baffbb> (The workspace has a reference to a missing target with GUID '0c7e19da3805e0a412c717704d4549fc25560b498add930cbef9623bd9afb53a') There have been no changes to my project (git status is clean). I have tried cleaning DerivedData as well, but it did not help. How am I supposed to figure out from the GUID what is it that xcode is trying to find?

Cloud signing: Validation failed (409) Invalid Signature. Code failed to satisfy specified code requirement(s)
I'm attempting to use Cloud Signing to export the Release version of 3 different apps for App Store, as described in https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10204/ The process completes successfully, and appears to be signed correctly, with a newly-created certificate in the developer portal of type "Distribution Managed". When I upload to App Store Connect however, I see the following error for several third-party Swift packages, distributed as frameworks: Validation failed (409) Invalid Signature. Code failed to satisfy specified code requirement(s). The file at path “MyApp.app/Frameworks/MyFramework.framework/MyFramework” is not properly signed. Make sure you have signed your application with a distribution certificate, not an ad hoc certificate or a development certificate. Verify that the code signing settings in Xcode are correct at the target level (which override any values at the project level). Additionally, make sure the bundle you are uploading was built using a Release target in Xcode, not a Simulator target. If you are certain your code signing settings are correct, choose “Clean All” in Xcode, delete the “build” directory in the Finder, and rebuild your release target. For more information, please consult https://developer.apple.com/support/code-signing. If I have a manually created Distribution certificate installed in the keychain at the point of export, the same archive is signed with that certificate, and is accepted by App Store Connect without issue. The xcodebuild command I am using (roughly): xcodebuild -exportArchive \ -archivePath "$ARCHIVE_PATH" \ -exportPath "$EXPORT_PATH" \ -exportOptionsPlist "$EXPORT_OPTIONS" \ -authenticationKeyPath "$API_KEY" \ -authenticationKeyID "$API_KEY_ID" \ -authenticationKeyIssuerID "$API_KEY_ISSUER" \ -allowProvisioningUpdates The plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "<http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd>"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>method</key> <string>app-store-connect</string> <key>teamID</key> <string>$TEAM</string> <key>uploadSymbols</key> <true/> <key>signingStyle</key> <string>automatic</string> </dict> </plist> Is what I’m trying to do supported? Is this a bug?

macOS Simulator
Currently Xcode has iOS simulators that allow easily testing apps on older versions of iOS. It would be helpful if there was also a macOS simulator for testing apps on older versions of macOS. FB21229682 https://github.com/feedback-assistant/reports/issues/724

Unexpected app version in logs — does MARKETING_VERSION change dynamically?
Hello, I've encountered unexpected behavior related to version information in our app logs, and I'd like to ask for some advice. We reviewed logs collected from a user running our app (currently available on the App Store). The logs are designed to include both the build number and the app version. Based on the build number in the logs, we believe the installed app version on the user's device is 1.0.3. However, the app version recorded in the logs is 1.1.5, which is the latest version currently available on the App Store. In our project, we set the app version using the MARKETING_VERSION environment variable. This value is configured via XcodeGen, and we define it in a YAML file. Under normal circumstances, the value defined in the YAML file (MARKETING_VERSION = 1.0.3) should be embedded in the app and reflected in the logs. But in this case, the version from the current App Store release (1.1.5) appears instead, which was unexpected. We'd like to know what might cause this behavior, and if there are any known factors that could lead to this. Also, is it possible that MARKETING_VERSION might somehow dynamically reflect the version currently available on the App Store? YAML: info.plist:

If I have a manually created Distribution certificate installed in the keychain at the point of export, the same archive is signed with that certificate, and is accepted by App Store Connect without issue. The xcodebuild command I am using (roughly): xcodebuild -exportArchive \ -archivePath "$ARCHIVE_PATH" \ -exportPath "$EXPORT_PATH" \ -exportOptionsPlist "$EXPORT_OPTIONS" \ -authenticationKeyPath "$API_KEY" \ -authenticationKeyID "$API_KEY_ID" \ -authenticationKeyIssuerID "$API_KEY_ISSUER" \ -allowProvisioningUpdates The plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "<http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd>"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>method</key> <string>app-store-connect</string> <key>teamID</key> <string>$TEAM</string> <key>uploadSymbols</key> <true/> <key>signingStyle</key> <string>automatic</string> </dict> </plist> Is what I’m trying to do supported? Is this a bug?

macOS Simulator
Currently Xcode has iOS simulators that allow easily testing apps on older versions of iOS. It would be helpful if there was also a macOS simulator for testing apps on older versions of macOS. FB21229682 https://github.com/feedback-assistant/reports/issues/724

Unexpected app version in logs — does MARKETING_VERSION change dynamically?
Hello, I've encountered unexpected behavior related to version information in our app logs, and I'd like to ask for some advice. We reviewed logs collected from a user running our app (currently available on the App Store). The logs are designed to include both the build number and the app version. Based on the build number in the logs, we believe the installed app version on the user's device is 1.0.3. However, the app version recorded in the logs is 1.1.5, which is the latest version currently available on the App Store. In our project, we set the app version using the MARKETING_VERSION environment variable. This value is configured via XcodeGen, and we define it in a YAML file. Under normal circumstances, the value defined in the YAML file (MARKETING_VERSION = 1.0.3) should be embedded in the app and reflected in the logs. But in this case, the version from the current App Store release (1.1.5) appears instead, which was unexpected. We'd like to know what might cause this behavior, and if there are any known factors that could lead to this. Also, is it possible that MARKETING_VERSION might somehow dynamically reflect the version currently available on the App Store? YAML: info.plist:
