I’ve developed an Apple Watch extension for an existing iOS app. When I run the app on the watch via Xcode using the simulator, everything works fine. However, when I try to install it on my iPhone, the Watch app doesn’t show it in the "Available Apps" list, so I can't install it on the watch. The Apple Watch is connected to my iPhone, and I can see other apps available for installation without any issues. I also created a brand new project with watchOS support to troubleshoot, but the same problem occurred. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hello, FWIW I've been developing enterprise iOS apps going on 10 years and haven't seen a bug like this. It's a major blocker. Any advice is welcome. Pulled latest from my team's repository . I ran into a build issue. Reinstalled cocoa pods, resolved swift packages, cleared cache, and then tried to update my iOS simulators... Since then, everything is bricked. Can't side load an app or download a simulator. When I try to download simulator, as suggested by Xcode, I receive the following error: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed. Domain: DVTDownloadableErrorDomain Code: 29 User Info: { DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-05-28 19:18:13 +0000"; } Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.

I've cleared caches. I cleared project builds and all old simulators. I've reverted to much older previous commits after trying above just in case (even though I've verified no one else on my team is experiencing this issue). Nothing works.

I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

I've got several Xcode iOS projects and in the Editor menu section there are dozen's of options, as in the diagram. However if I create a new iOX Project (with Xcode 16.2) look at how sparse the Editor menu is. Why is that, why do they appear for other projects but not for a new one and why are the contents different?

I recently started building an iMessage game, and whenever I try to send the game through the first contact on the simulator to loop back into the second one, I get an alert saying "Unable to send. The recipient can not receive this item via satellite". Has anyone experienced this? If so, do you have a solution? It is making it a bit difficult to test the flow of my app.

I have a couple apps in one git repository. I'd like to have a Swift package in that repo as well, shared by apps. In other words, I don't want a separate repo for the Swift package. I followed the instructions here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/organizing-your-code-with-local-packages It seems to work. I can write code like this in my app: import MyLocalPackage func foo() { myLocalPackageFunc() } I notice that the package is not listed under Project > MyApp > Package Dependencies. I don't really care, as long as I can reuse code between apps. But when I try to add this package code to a 2nd app, I'm at a loss. I tried "Add Package Dependencies" and "Add Local", but that creates a different looking setup than the 1st app. The code is browsable in the project navigator. And when I try to build it says "Missing package product 'MyLocalPackage'. The documentation linked above, which I used for the 1st app, does a "New > Package". I don't want a new package. How can I connect the existing one?

My app uses the top navigation panel which contains the back button, a title, and prompt. On an actual device, the navigation area is light and shows all three items. On the simulator, the navigation area is black and only the back button is shown. I need this to be correct for app store screen shots.

When running UITests on tvOS, tabBar viewIdentifiers (UIKit) are no longer appearing. When you run the test, accessibility identifiers for tabs are no longer locatable but all other identifiers appears except for the tabs in the tabBar. In the stack trace of the debugger, if I print application, I can see all existing viewIdentifiers except those that were set for the tabs (on tvOS only). If I force an action on the simulator after the app has launched and the view appeared ie move left or right, the identifiers appears (confirmed by stack trace) and the test will continue as expected. This was not an issue in the past (no code changes). I am not sure if this appeared after updating my mac to Sequoia. But for iOS, there is no issue. This bug only appears on tvOS and specifically the tabs. Issue persists on: Sequoia 15.4.1 Xcode 16.3

I am on MacOs 15.4.1 which is being deployed with an old version of Ruby ruby 2.6.10 and bundler version 1.17.2. I ran pod install after generating the pods with these versions and during the application compilation there have been several issues reported against pods code.

When renaming A.value, it also causes the value inside the conditional compilation in checkRename to be renamed. How to resolve or avoid this situation? class A { let value = "1" } class B { var value = 0 } func checkRename() { var b = B() #if os(iOS) b.value = 456 #elseif os(macOS) b.value = 789 #endif } Xcode Version 15.4 (15F31d).

Hi, first time question. I have a game app that I am trying to include google ads on: import GoogleMobileAds I have the following bit of code: init() { GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().start(completionHandler: { _ in print("✅ AdMob started successfully") }) } That is throwing the following error: OliviasGameApp.swift:9:22 Cannot call value of non-function type 'MobileAds' I have gone through countless troubleshooting, including transitioning to Pods. Is there any help on what I can do to resolve this issue?

I have an app that connects to a BLE device and registers its services. I can create a notification when my app is running on foreground or background, but is it possible to show a notification when a message is recieved from the BLE device while the app has been killed by the user?

I have a ContentView in my app which includes the line of code FileUploadProgressAttributes. this struct is defined in a file included in the target FileUploadProgressExtension. and it is an ActivityAttributes. in ContentView I imported FileUploadProgressExtension, and the xcode is able to find the FileUploadProgressAttributes during prebuild. but during build, it gives me Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes.init(filename: Swift.String) -> FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes the workaround i found is to add the file with the FileUploadProgressAttributes to my app's target, but I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do. When Xcode created the extension for me, it added the extension target as a target dependency of my app. so obviously if i added this file to my app target it makes the extension target pointless. First time working with widgets so I'm not sure if I'm missing something.

Thanks, Bhanu

I have had content blockers in the Mac App Store for years. Ever since moving to Sonoma, doing a clean build or archive in XCode deletes the extension from Safari settings since it never gets into the built app. The only way for me to get it back is to remove the DerivedData and target, reboot, and create a target with a different name. That works and stays around in Safari settings as long as I only build and don't clean. However, a clean or an archive removes it again. Restoring a version of the project from Time Machine that was posted to the App Store weeks or months ago doesn't work. However I can download the version of the app in the App Store, and it works, but I can't build it now from the source code that was used to build that version without going through the above process. Moving from Sonoma 14.7.1 to 14.7.2 didn't work. I would move to Sequoia if I had reason to believe that would work, but I don't. Safari 18.2, Sonoma 14.7.2, 32GB, 2.2 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7

I have enabled Code Review with the button and then String Catalog turned up to code view anyways i can't get it back to original view. Disable Code Review button doesn't do anything. Any idea?

Hello!!! I want to do a little project for the original iPhone running iOS 3.1.3 and I don’t find the SDK for iOS 3.1.3. I’ve tried downloading Xcode 3.1.3 from the Apple Developer site, but during the installation process, the iPhone SDK doesn’t appear to be included. I also tested Xcode 3.2.2, but it doesn’t seem to have the iPhone OS 3.1.3 SDK either. Does anyone still have the iPhone OS 3.1.3 SDK available or know where I can find it? Thanks!! Edgar

Is SFSymbol Customization officially valid as a method for using SVG in embedded widgets (lock-screen & watchOS)? I use this in UnitedPizzaHelper but wonder whether this is the prime cause why all widgets of this app gets missing on iOS devices? This issue only happened on at least 2 device in the recent 12 months (they are all on iOS 18, and one of them is running iOS 18.5... Rebooting device won't work.), and we currently have no clue how to troubleshoot this. Update: The guy running iOS 18.5 told me that the widgets are now discoverable after waiting for minutes. Seems that this is a random issue.
