Hi everyone,
I’m working on my submission for the Swift Student Challenge and need some advice. I already have an existing app that’s live on the App Store, and I’d like to use the same app for my submission.
However, while creating the App Playground, I noticed that I’m unable to create additional targets. This is problematic because my app relies heavily on specific targets like ShieldAction,
ShieldConfiguration,
and DeviceActivityMonitor.
Without these targets, the app’s core functionality won’t work as intended.
Is there a known limitation or workaround for this? How can I submit my app’s functionality within the constraints of the App Playground?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Right. App playgrounds are for creating… well… apps, and that’s what the Swift Student Challenge is expecting. It sounds like you’re trying to build something based on the Screen Time APIs, which require you to build an app extension. That’s not possible in an app playground.
Share and Enjoy
