Some of my apps are configured to use Xcode Cloud. Some time ago, this service was blocked for developers from Russia. I want to transfer one of my apps to another account. But there is the following requirement in the checklist: "You must remove all Xcode Cloud related data from the app you want transferred." I can't do it myself because I see an error in App Store Connect: "The page you’re looking for can’t be found.". It is also not available through Xcode. I would like to delete all Xcode Cloud settings for all my apps. Can you help me with this?

I made a new app icon with Icon Composer, and added it to my Xcode project. In the built app, I see AppIcon.icon next to the old AppIcon.icns. But Tahoe is not showing the new icon. Is this because Tahoe has cached the old icon somewhere, and if so, is there some way to make it refresh?

I just discovered xcresulttool - provided with the Xcode Command Line Tools. It does an amazing job generating a JSON report of warnings/failures. The tool requires a xcresult file path - my issue is that xcodebuild build does not produce an xcresult file so I can't find a way to generate a similar report for that action. My use case is simple - in my CI job, I want to report back on specific failures during builds and tests. I run xcodebuild build-for-testing and then later xcodebuild test-without-building. If there is a failure during the test phase, I can easily parse the issues from the JSON report in xcresult. However, if there is a failure during build, there is no result file to parse from. What is more confusing is that if you run xcodebuild test (build and test in one command) compilation errors are put in the xcresult file and you can read them just fine with xcresulttool. Is there any way to get a failure report from xcodebuild build actions without parsing stdout/stderror? I am aware of 3rd party tools such as xcpretty or xcbeautify - I would like to avoid anything that requires parsing the output.

I’m still using Xcode 15 to build my mac apps. My icons use the rounded rect style but Tahoe still wraps them in its own rounded rect (even when I use the official Sketch template (1)). I made an .icon with Icon Composer and added it to my project. When building in Xcode 26, that works fine: It uses the .icon in Tahoe and the .icns in older systems. But: I need to compile my app with Xcode 15 (need supports for older MacOS). Xcode 15 doesn’t know about the .icon files and so it ignores them. So I have two questions: How does Tahoe check if it can use the .icns files as is or when it needs to add the rounded rect? Is there a way to make the .icon files work in Xcode 15? (1) It works when the icon has an opaque background. But when adding a slight alpha, it doesn’t. Same file, same setting otherwise.

I get an error when using Share Extension to share images in iOS 26. It works fine in iOS 18. The error message is: Error acquiring assertion: <Error Domain=RBSAssertionErrorDomain Code=2 "Could not find attribute name in domain plist" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Could not find attribute name in domain plist}>. What should I do? My plist file looks like this: NSExtension NSExtensionAttributes NSExtensionActivationRule NSExtensionActivationSupportsImageWithMaxCount 1 NSExtensionMainStoryboard MainInterface NSExtensionPointIdentifier com.apple.share-services

Hello community, After unable to use Metal Toolchain for Xcode Beta 1 and 2 even after following the workarounds, and using Xcode Beta 3, I am still unable to use the downloaded Metal Compiler on my device.

i'm integrating In-App Purchases in our Flutter app using the official in_app_purchase plugin. We are currently testing consumable purchases and facing issues with the way events are delivered from StoreKit to the app. Implementation details I initiate the purchase with: await InAppPurchase.instance.buyConsumable(purchaseParam: purchaseParam); I listen for purchase updates with: final Stream<List> purchaseUpdated = inAppPurchase.purchaseStream; _subscription = purchaseUpdated.listen((purchaseDetailsList) { _handlePurchaseUpdates(purchaseDetailsList); }, onError: (Object error) { updateApplePaymentStatus(isSuccess: false, response: jsonEncode(error.toString())); }, onDone: () { _subscription.cancel(); }); Issues Observed Control on purchase button event As soon as the user taps the purchase button, the App Store purchase sheet is shown. Question: Is there a way to intercept control at this point (before showing the sheet) to perform additional checks or logging? Cancelled payment after UPI intent In our testing with UPI payment flows (UPI intent triggered from Apple Pay/linked payment method), if the user cancels the payment from the external flow, we don’t see a clear event in purchaseStream. Question: How can we reliably capture this cancellation status on the app side? Event timing after successful purchase Currently, the purchaseStream event is only triggered after the StoreKit purchase confirmation popup has been dismissed by the user. Question: Is there a way to capture the event earlier (i.e., right after StoreKit confirms payment success), so we can update our backend and UI without waiting for popup dismissal? Request We would appreciate guidance on: Best practices for intercepting purchase initiation before the StoreKit sheet. Recommended way to detect and handle cancelled payments (especially in UPI flows) managed on frondend side. Whether it is possible to receive successful purchase events without waiting for the user to dismiss the confirmation dialog. Thank you for your support.

Developer Mode option is not visible in Privacy & Security section. Always invisible in Privacy & Security section after iOS 18.6 upgrade. I have done the reset iPhone and clear data many times but same issue i am getting in iOS device. Note* - When we plug the iPhone in Mac system using wire i did receive the message like - 'Trust the system'. How to show the developer mode option in iOS device? Kindly suggest.

Hello! When launching/debugging on my iPad and iPhone I keep getting the following error: “Previous preparation error: Failed to find a DDI … Run ‘devicectl list preferredDDI’ …” I believe this was caused by a previously interrupted Xcode update around June due to low disk space, which may have left DeviceSupport/DDI/CoreDevice files incomplete. Even after finishing the update later, the error persists. I now use a new Mac with 4 TB of storage, but the issue still occurs. Since then I have unfortunately been blocked from testing or presenting my app on devices. It seems that only a new, fully completed Xcode update might resolve the problem. Tried so far: – Cleared caches (CoreDevice/Devices) – Reset trust on device and re-paired – Checked devicectl list preferredDDI I would really appreciate guidance, as at the moment I cannot present my app due to this blocking issue. Thank you very much for your support!

I recently updated to macOS sequoia 15.6 Afterward, I updated to Xcode 26 The project I've been running for the last couple years no longer compiles on existing simulators and doesn't build to a physical device. I'm getting an error I'm not familiar with and have no idea how to directly resolve it: The specific error is 'Command SwiftGeneratePch failed with a nonzero exit code' Looking up this issue via Google, there wasn't really a lot of information on this particular build failure. Most suggestions were to change the location of the Derived Data folder (Xcode -> File -> Project Settings -> update location of derived data from default to relative) This was one of the only actionable solutions I found online but this doesn't fully address the issue for me, it just creates a new issue: "Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code" I feel like with enough digging around I should be able to find a solution to the "PhaseScriptExecution" issue; there seems to be a decent amount of information online about that particular problem. I would prefer if I could solve the original 'SwiftGeneratePch" failure without needing to address other issues, though. Is this possible?

Hi Team, I’ve tried downloading the EnableBluetoothCentralMatterClientDeveloperMode.mobileconfig certificate from multiple sources, but all the links I found point to expired versions. Could you please help me with the URL to the latest version of this certificate? Here are the links I’ve already tried, but none of them worked: https://project-chip.github.io/connectedhomeip-doc/guides/darwin.html#profile-installation https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/blob/master/docs/guides/darwin.md Apple Site Looking forward to your support. Thanks, Mantosh Kumar

When developing app for iPad most of them are fixed portrait because of the nature of the app. IOS26 now ignores this settings because windows can be resized and windowed so breaking this fixed option, very annoying. Even if you maximise the window it still rotates.

Hi all, I'm trying to add Spotlight support to a macOS app that handles custom virtual machine bundles with the .vpvm extension. I’ve followed the current documentation and used the modern CSImportExtension approach with a Spotlight Importer extension target. Here’s what I’ve done: App Info.plist: Declared com.makeprog.vpvm as a UTI conforming to com.apple.package. Registered it under UTExportedTypeDeclarations and CFBundleDocumentTypes. Spotlight Importer Extension: Added a new macOS target using the Spotlight Import Extension template. Set the NSExtensionPointIdentifier to com.apple.spotlight.import. Used CSSupportedContentTypes = com.makeprog.vpvm. Implemented a minimal update(_ attributes:forFileAt:) method that sets displayName, title, and contentDescription. Other steps: Verified that the .appex is embedded under Contents/PlugIns/. Confirmed it appears in mdimport -e output with correct UTI. Used mdimport -m -d2 -t /path/to/file.vpvm, but I still get: Imported '/path/to/file.vpvm' of type 'com.makeprog.vpvm' with no plugIn. The extension is never invoked. I’ve also tried: Ensuring the .vpvm file is a valid directory bundle. Restarting Spotlight / rebuilding index. Ensuring the app and extension are properly signed. Tried installing the app in test virtual machine Question: Has anyone successfully used CSImportExtension for custom UTIs? Is there something additional I need to do for the extension to be recognized and triggered? Any advice or examples would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I’ve noticed a strange bug in Xcode 16 and Swift. When a preview is rendering and hasn’t finished yet and you run an app to debug, Xcode is launching two instances of the app. Has anyone else noticed this issue? If you let the preview finish rendering before running the app, this doesn’t happen. Very odd.

I'm getting hundreds of the message below in Xcode. I've narrowed it down to when I instantiate the following AVAudioUnitComponentManager.shared() Message send exceeds rate-limit threshold and will be dropped. { reporterID=231700600717315, rateLimit=32hz }

I've been getting intermittent failures on Xcode code compiling my app on multiple platforms because it fails to compile a metal shader. The Metal Toolchain was not installed and could not compile the Metal source files. Download the Metal Toolchain from Xcode > Settings > Components and try again. Sometimes if I re-run it, it works fine. Then I'll run it again, and it will fail. If you tell me to file a feedback, please tell me what information would be useful and actionable, because this is all I have.
