Watch Simulator not loading watchOS apps in 7 beta

I searched to see if anyone else is having this problem, but haven't seen anything yet. When I try to load a program into the XCode 7 watch simulator, I get a "failed to load application" error and the app never loads into the simulator. I have tried restarting everything to no avail. Does anyone know how I might reset things so I can get my apps to load on the simulator? Thanks!

The specific error is this: "Install of Apple Watch Application never finished"

I get this 95% of the time. To work around the bug, remove your iOS app from the Simulator and then build/run again.

Bump. In Xcode 7 beta 3, one-line watch apps and WWDC sample code consistently fail to install to the watch simulator for me.


Is there a special technique that makes the watch simulator actually ever work?

I was moving along well with development using Xcode 7 beta 4, and now today I can't get my watch app to install for the life of me. I've tried reseting simulators (under Simulator menu) and tried restarting computer and tried deleting the apps from the iOS and WatchOS simulators. I get the exact same error as above.


This is from the console log from the iPhone simulator:


Ians-13-Retina-MBP companionappd[4515]: (Error) WatchKit: <SPCompanionAppServer.m -[SPCompanionAppServer _launchSockPuppetAppForCompanionAppWithIdentifier:options:completion:]:1187> Installation of com.iggsoftware.iBankMobile2.watchkitapp failed

  "Notification" => <string: 0x7ff2abe1d9c0> { length = 44, contents = "com.apple.LaunchServices.ApplicationsChanged" }
  }>

I tried backtracking to see how I might have broke things and once I removed this from my WatchOS 2 app Info.plist, I did a clean build and then it worked:



<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
  <key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
  <dict>
  <key>my.url.com</key>
  <dict>
  <key>NSTemporaryExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads</key>
  <true/>
  </dict>
  </dict>
</dict>


Now of course I need to figure how to get my NSURLSession to load the URL I want, but at least the app is installing now.

I've tried this numerous times and it still doesn't work for me. I have 100% chance of failure with testing even a blank Watch target in my app project. Any other solutions?
