Since I upgraded to iOS 15, watchOS 8 and Xcode 13, after I turned off and on my Mac, every first time I want to launch an app from Xcode to my iPhone appear this message (even if I'm not developing for watchOS):
iPhone is busy: Making Apple Watch ready for development
The Mac stays stuck on it for at least 20 minutes.
The only solution I found (until now) is to switch off WiFi on my Watch.
Is there a better solution?
Yeah, Apple, as usual, does not give shit about these feedbacks
Same issue, all devices updated. Cannot debug any code running on Apple Watch.
This ******* bug has been gone for months until i upgrade my iPhone, iPad and Mac to the latest version today. GUESS WHAT?
THIS ******* BUG COMES OVER AGAIN!!!
WHY???
This makes watch development a real pain.
Having similar issue with WatchOS 9.5 - Apple Watch Ultra, Xcode 14.3 and iOS 16.5
Stuck on a screen with this message for more than 20 minutes.
"Please select a different device, or wait for the device to load development services and try again."
I had the same issue, and I found a solution that helped me.

TL;DR
It helped me to download appropriate version of DeviceSupport from https://github.com/JinjunHan/iOSDeviceSupport.
And place it inside my Xcode package contents open /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport

Add a CommentI had the same problem! iphone tries to activate my apple watch 1 to no avail and they both download in half a day! How can I solve this problem? This prevents me from testing the apps in progress on XCODE because iphone is stale.
same problem here. Very annoying. Slowing down my development work considerably. Please fix
Quite frustrating, any chance we can get this fixed for the new year? Driving us all bananas.
