In the Coding Intelligence feature introduced in Xcode 26, when I send a message using ChatGPT in Xcode, the message “Your request couldn't be completed. Networking error.” appears and I’m unable to use the feature. I suspect the issue may be related to the VPN or network proxy connected to my Mac and am attempting to investigate. However, Xcode does not display any specific error details, nor does it provide a way to view them, which makes a detailed investigation difficult. Next to the error message, there is a feedback button rather than a stethoscope (🩺) button, and the feedback window does not provide access to the underlying error information. Is there a way to view the detailed network error logs generated by ChatGPT in Xcode? (I am using Xcode 26.0.1.)

Can I download the iOS 26 simulator runtime via a download link? The machine I need to deploy on may require an offline package installation due to firewall restrictions.

I'm following the steps laid out in Creating a static framework which states: When a client links and embeds the framework, Xcode 15 or later omits the main binary from the embedded framework bundle because it’s already statically linked into the client. Specifically, I'm adding a new framework target to my project, and then changing the Mach-O type in its build settings to Static Library. What I'm observing when I build (debug or release) is that that the resulting framework folder inside of the app bundle still contains a binary. Furthermore, upon inspecting strings and symbols in both the main app executable and this library binary, it appears that my strings and symbols do end up in the main executable and not in the library binary. Does this mean that this binary is just a stub left behind? Is this intended? Can I safely delete this binary with a build phase script?

hello and thank you for reading . I am having an issue with getting my phone -13 pro max - into developer mode I have tried all the basic ways and have tried some with help from Ai. But still haven’t gotten my phone into dev mode? Any tricks the for sure work or what should I do ? There is another option I have t tried but don’t have my laptop or access to a computer currently. would very much app help with this thank you in advance .

I've upgraded to a new Macbook recently, just when I was setting up my Xcode, I realized I there is a this red "X" showing up next to my development team as I was signing in to my account I have checked my permission on App Store Connect, everything seemed fine. I have also deleted my old Apple development certificate and requested for another one. Nothing worked.

When building a SwiftUI project in Xcode 26.3, Swift compilation fails in the Release configuration with Optimization Level set to -O, when the iOS deployment target is lower than iOS 26 (e.g. iOS 16, 17, or 18). The failure occurs when using a generic class conforming to ObservableObject that contains a @Published property. The same code: Compiles successfully in Xcode 16.3 (Release, -O) with iOS 16/17/18 Compiles successfully in Xcode 26.x when the deployment target is set to iOS 26 Compiles successfully in Xcode 26.x Debug configuration (-Onone) Compiles successfully in Xcode 26.x Release when optimization is disabled (-Onone) However, in Xcode 26.3, the build consistently fails in Release (-O) when targeting iOS 16, 17, or 18. This appears to be a Swift compiler optimization issue related to generics, ObservableObject, @Published, and back-deployment to iOS versions prior to iOS 26. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Create a new SwiftUI App project using Xcode 26.3. Leave all project settings at default (Swift version 5). Set the iOS Deployment Target to iOS 16, 17, or 18. Use the following minimal code: import SwiftUI internal import Combine @MainActor class CommonViewModel<Item>: ObservableObject { @Published var listArray = [Item]() } class ContentViewModel: CommonViewModel<String> { func reloadData() { self.listArray = ["1"] } } struct ContentView: View { @StateObject private var viewModel = ContentViewModel() var body: some View { Color.clear .onAppear { viewModel.reloadData() } } } Build and run the app using the Release configuration.

Hi everyone, I’m running out of space on my Mac and I need to use an external SSD to free up room, especially because Xcode is taking a lot of storage. I want to know if it’s safe to move some Xcode files—projects, derived data, or system-related files—to an external SSD. Which files can I move safely, and which should stay on the internal drive? I want to avoid breaking anything or causing issues with Xcode or macOS. Also, is it the same situation if I use an external HDD instead of an SSD? Are there additional risks or performance issues to consider?

I'm struggling to build a driver for iPadOS in a particular project configuration. If I put the driver code and dext target into the same Xcode project which contains the iPad app, all is well. This is the way the Xcode driver template does it. However, I'd like to build and debug the dext on macOS, while eventually deploying on iPadOS. So I put the dext into a different project, which has a macOS target, a minimal iPadOS target and a DriverKit target. I made a workspace which contains both projects. I dragged the macOS project into the iPadOS project so that I can refer to the products of the macOS project (specifically, its driver target) as a dependency of the iPadOS target. Note that the main iPad app target depends on the driver target. So the workspace organization looks like this: Workspace iPad project main iPad app target (depends on driver) test project reference test project test macOS/iPad app target DriverKit dext target When I build the iPadOS target, it builds the dependent driver target in the macOS project, but it fails to link because Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/clang/15.0.0/lib/darwin/libclang_rt.profile_driverkit.a is not found. If I just build the driver target directly in Xcode, there is no such complaint. I looked closely at the build logs, and I see for the failed link, there are these two linker flags set which are not set in the successful case -debug_variant -fprofile-instr-generate I can't seem to control the generation of this flag. I tried turning off the Profile switch in the Scheme editor for the driver, but is makes no difference. When I directly build the driver target, no -fprofile-instr-generate is set and it compiles and links. When i build the driver as a dependency of another target, -fprofile-instr-generate is passed to the linker, which fails. The obvious workaround is to put the driver source code into a separate driver target in the iPadOS project, but I'd rather have just one DriverKit driver for both platforms, with a few settings (such as bundle ID) controlled by a configuration file. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and know of a workaround?

I use spm manage swift package, now i want my macos app support arm64e,so i add arm64e in Build Srtting -> Architectures. but i got error Could not find module 'SwiftyJSON' for target 'arm64e-apple-macos'; found: arm64-apple-macos, x86_64-apple-macos Apparently, if no limit in Package.swift, SPM will only compile versions for x86 and ARM64 architectures by default. now, how should I configure SPM to compile the arm64e version? thanks

Popular automated testing systems like FireBase [1] and WeTest [2] expect the uploaded test to include the Debug-iphoneos directory generated by Xcode. However, in all of our builds on Xcode 26.3, this folder is created but remains empty. There are some other folders with the same name in subdirectories, but these only contain intermediate build files. Now we're looking for configuration or settings in Xcode to restore the original behavior, where the top-level Debug-iphoneos directory gets populated with a complete image of the test target, include the binary and resource files. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! [1] https://firebase.google.com/docs/test-lab/ios/run-xctest [2] https://www.wetest.net/documents/detail/automation/d8yaA7yz

On XCode 26.x, calling XCFail with continueAfterFailure set to false causes xcodebuild command to hang indefinitely if the XCUIApplication object is stored outside the test method. Create a new template iOS App project with UI tests Add XCFail(...) to a UI test test-case Set the XCUIApplication in self.app (avoiding this fixes the hang) Run tests with xcodebuild test The terminal hangs forever Reproduction example import XCTest final class TestAppUITests: XCTestCase { var app: XCUIApplication? = nil override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false } override func tearDownWithError() throws { app?.terminate() } @MainActor func testExample() throws { let app = XCUIApplication() self.app = app // <- HERE this causes the problem app.launch() XCTFail() } } Reproduction environment macOS Sequoia 15.7.3 Tested XCode 26.3 and XCode 26.2 have the hang Tested XCode 16.4 does work as expected XCode 16.4 The issue does not happen on XCode 16.4, and is likely introduced in XCode 26. Related threads: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/809989 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/793307 Work-around Do not store XCUIApplication in the XCTestCase instance, maintain it scoped to the test methods.

Hi One of the new Family Control API's requires the new "Family Controls App & Website Usage" capability but it appears to be missing in the latest Xcode beta (26.4 B2). MacOS and iOS all running 26.4 Beta 3. Does anyone know if we have to wait for Xcode 26.4 Beta 3 and it's associated SDK's for this one to become available?

I have Xcode 26.1.1 (installed on a Mac Mini with Sequoia 15.7.2), which was installed from the Universal .xip file available from the Apple Developer site. This file is 2.7Gb. When Xcode is run, there is a menu item at Settings -> Components, and the top section "Platform Support" includes an option to "Get" the iOS SDK, which is an additional 10.3Gb download.[1][2] I would like to either use command-line tools to obtain this iOS SDK component, or find where the downloaded package or its contents are installed on this Mac. This Apple Documentation some examples of using command-line tools to download components for Xcode. However, there is no specific documentation on how to separately download the iOS SDK. It seems that if possible, it could be done with "xcodebuild -downloadComponent", however I have tried a number of likely component names (ios, ios_sdk, ios26.1, ios_sdk26.1, iphoneos, iphoneos_sdk, iphoneos_sdk26.1), and none are valid. Does anyone know either where the SDK download can be found, or how to download it using command-line tools? Background: I require this as I am managing a fleet of Mac Minis located in a data centre (used for iOS/Android builds), and Internet access is restricted - any action requiring Internet access needs the Mac to be removed from the machine room racks and taken to a build room, then connected to a mobile hotspot or similar. This access is slow, and the above 10.3Gb download can take over an hour. If I can download the SDK separately, I can distribute it to all of the Macs over the internal network overnight, in advance of visiting the DC for upgrade tasks. [1] Various web sites say that the iOS SDK is "bundled with" Xcode. However, if that's the case a) how is a 10.3Gb download somehow included in a 2.7Gb file? And b) why do I still need to "Get" this component after installing Xcode from the 2.7Gb file? [2] Note that I am not looking for the iOS Simulator, I have already downloaded the iOS 26.1 version of this. I am specifically looking for the iOS SDK as listed under "Platform Support" in the Xcode menu described above.

I’m constantly gettng 47 errors in my code and I’ve tried everything I can think of and can’t find the root problem, please can someone help

Prior to iOS 26.0 we were able to download specific simulator runtimes from the command line by using a command like xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 18.0 This is described in the documentation here. This no longer works for 26.x. If I run the following command: "xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 26.0" it fails with the following error: "Finding content... iOS 26.0 is not available for download." If I omit the -buildVersion flag it will download the latest version, currently 26.2, but if I try and specify 26.2 as the buildVersion I still get "iOS 26.2 is not available for download". This behavior has been confirmed on Xcode 26.2. Perhaps related, it appears these runtimes are also no longer being made available for download on https://developer.apple.com/download/all
