Alright so there's no watchOS 1 template in Xcode8 anymore (I'm using beta 6).
However when trying to deploy an exisiting watchOS 1 app to the simulator I could only get it to work with the watchOS 2 simulator not the watchOS 3 one.
I saw in Xcode 8's release notes this comment: "WatchOS 1 apps may fail to finish launching on Apple Watch devices" but I would like to know if it also applies to the simulator and if it's confirmed that watchOS 3 supports watchOS 1 apps.
Cheers.
Are you even able to build your watchOS 1 app in Xcode 8 beta 6? Our static library that shares code between the watch app and parent app is giving us issues:
"Target 'X' of project 'X' was rejected as an implicit dependency for 'libX.a' because its SDK is platform 'com.apple.platform.iphonesimulator' and it needs to match platform 'com.apple.platform.watchsimulator'"
Even when the target has the watchsimulator in the 'Supported Platforms' it gives us issues. This builds fine in the latest version of Xcode 7.
