I've updated my computer to Sequoia 15, Xcode 16 and now no matter what I do, I am unable to work with Swift UI previews.
I get this error each time I try to run the preview:
Failed to launch app in reasonable time
I have done:
Uninstall/Re-install Xcode
Deleted derived data
Deleted the simulator data
Used DevCleaner to remove all data related to Xcode
Searched all websites about this issue. ( Non shown a good solution )

Hi all,
Has anyone else run into this issue in Xcode 26?
I’m logged into my paid ChatGPT Plus account, but the Xcode integration doesn’t seem to recognize the subscription. After a short period of use, I get the following error:
“Over daily limit. ChatGPT in Xcode will be unavailable for up to 24 hours. For higher limits, sign in with a paid ChatGPT account.”
Since I’m already signed in with a paid account, this looks like either a bug or a limitation specific to Xcode.
Is this expected behavior, or has anyone found a workaround to make Xcode properly recognize Plus accounts?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

The Foundation Models Framework stopped working after Xcode failed to download the "Predictive Code Completion Model".
What happened was on macOS Tahoe 26.0:
Downloaded and installed Xcode 26 Beta (17A5241e)
Worked with Foundation Models framework. Everything worked fine. ✅
Opened Xcode 16.4
This triggers the downloading of Predictive Code Completion Model which then fails.
Go back into Xcode 26 Beta, Foundation Models framework no longer works. ❌ Error: "Failed to find asset: com.apple.gm.safety_deny.input.code_intelligence.base.generic - no asset"
What I've tried or checked:
Reinstalling Xcode 26 Beta
Uninstalling both Xcodes and only installing Xcode 26 Beta
Checked available space on drive (over 300 GB free)
Restarted Mac
Restarted Xcode 26
Changed wifi networks
Turned on VPN
Deleted the Library > Developer > Xcode folder and reinstalled Xcode 26

Since Xcode 15.3 it has become impossible to build our project more twice in a row without encountering a batch of "internal inconsistency error: never received target ended message for target ID …".
This issues appeared a few months ago (15.0 i think, but i'm not sure), but xcode 15.3 makes it almost unusable. We're a team of 3 iOS devs, and we're all having the problem.
Our project involves a lot of SPM packages, a few cocoa pods, a few iOS Frameworks, and a bit of swiftgen. Nothing particularly special for a large project, and no custom build steps that does anything fancy.
It is now to the point where we're looking for alternative to xcode, because we can't decently kill xcode and restart every time we have to build our code...
I am experiencing an issue where my Mac's speakers will crackle and pop when running an app on the Simulator or even when previewing SwiftUI with Live Preview.
I am using a 16" MacBook Pro (i9) and I'm running Xcode 12.2 on Big Sur (11.0.1).
Killing coreaudiod temporarily fixes the problem however this is not much of a solution.
Is anyone else having this problem?
When I compile my Xcode project using the xcodebuild command, I observe long incremental build durations. For example, compiling a new, empty project in Xcode only takes around one second. The same project takes 7 seconds to compile using the xcodebuild command. I've noticed that xcodebuild hangs at the "GatherProvisioningInputs" phase.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a new Xcode project (iOS app template)
Build the project in Xcode with timing summary enabled
Build the same project from the command line with the following command:
time xcodebuild -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 15 Pro,OS=latest'
I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to improve the build times when using the xcodebuild command. Thank you in advance for your help!
With Xcode 26.0 beta 5 (17A5295f) when I run the following command
xcodebuild -downloadComponent metalToolchain
I get the following error:
xcodebuild[48851:12478851] Writing error result bundle to /var/folders/b_/g67r_tl557z244g20ncr_qmsd9wrz1/T/ResultBundle_2025-07-08_11-10-0012.xcresult
xcodebuild: error: Failed fetching catalog for assetType (com.apple.MobileAsset.MetalToolchain), serverParameters ({
RequestedBuild = 17A5295f;
})
I can't install the toolchain from the Xcode GUI also. Does someone know a workaround ?
I have been working for a while now. Never encountered this issue. After accepting the invite from the organization. The organizations does not appear at developer apple account. But can see the organization at app store connect. Yes i have checked the account permissions. I have the admin role and developer role etc is checked everything is correct. This is not just me happening with my colleague as well.
I'm unable to download the Metal toolchain with Xcode. When trying to do it via the command line, I get the following:
> xcodebuild -downloadComponent metalToolchain -exportPath /tmp/MyMetalExport/
Beginning asset download...

Note that I am online. I've tried restarting my computer and Xcode and using a different network.
None of my existing apps (both in-AppStore and in-development) nor even a brand new WatchOS app can be installed to my Apple Watch. While using Xcode to build and deploy to my Watch, I get this:
”Waiting to reconnect to Apple Watch
Xcode will continue when the operation completes.”
However, this dialog persists and never completes.
I’m running all of the latest: MacOS 14 beta 4, Xcode 15 beta 5, Watch OS 10 beta 4, iOS 17 beta 4.
I’ve tried resetting my Watch (with “Erase All” option) and restarting the Mac, the phone and the watch.
Any help?

Hello,
Switching Core Data Editor Style has been broken since Xcode 14 Beta 1. Although I can get by, it would be convenient to switch to the Graphical ER diagram style to "visually" study the model for an App.
Regards and Thank You,
John
I just updated my device to iOS 18.3 and despite it connecting to my computer, it doesn't appear in Xcode. Some quick troubleshooting led me to the theory that I need to download the matching simulator runtime for it to appear. But I have searched far and wide and the latest sim runtime is ios 18.2 Am I missing something here?
I have installed Sequoia and Xcode 16 and now I can't add packages to my (or any project). I just get a message saying the package can't be resolved. Basically I can't carry on developing.
SORT THIS OUT APPLE
I added a new liquid glass icon built with Icon Composer to my app. It works and looks great on iOS 26 but Xcode complains that required icon files for older versions are missing.
I still have the old AppIcon in my Asset Catalog but it seems like it's not being used.
How do I configure Xcode to use the old icons for iOS 18 and the new icon for iOS 26?
Hi, since a while now, I've noticed that in Xcode 15 (beta 8), my iOS device running iOS 17 (latest beta), I can't seem to disable the setting "Connect via Network" in the Devices and Simulators window.
The controls are disabled, and stuck to 'on'.
I often also have issues with the 'Installing to device' step while development my apps, where a reboot of the iPad is required. My guess is that it gets stuck/confused how it is supposed to deploy and my network setup is a bit complicated due to VPN's, tight WiFi security etc.
Unpairing the device doesn't help with resetting this setting. After unpairing the top-right header (with the Take Screenshot controls etc...) even still shows the details of the unpaired device.
Anyone else has experienced this or know a solution.
I failed to download Metal toolchain for Xcode Beta 5.
Downloading in Settings -> Components didn't work so I tried in terminal but didn't work too.
/tmp xcodebuild -downloadComponent metalToolchain -exportPath ~/Downloads

I try adding people as Sandbox Testers to my App, but Apple keeps saying that they already exist on the team, even though they're not.
It always show "A user with this email address already exists on the team"
It keeps happening with every address I try.
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.
I'm seeing a lot of unexpected CPU usage when running the iOS 26.1 simulator. Looks like a "MercuryPosterExtension" is crashing over and over, which then causes the "ReportCrash" process to run, presumably to create the crash report.
Doesn't happen on device, nor on iOS 26.0 simulator. I suspect MercuryPoster is related to wallpaper. I also don't see any wallpaper background in my simulator.
