XCode 16 beta1 and beta2 hangs whenever I try to open Localizable.xcstrings. The localization screen appears but afterwards XCode becomes unresponsive until I kill it. To make matters worse, upon restart the last window, Localizaton is reloaded, instantly causing a hang again (I need to be super quick as I have about half a second to try to click elsewhere like crazy). The same localization strings file works fine on XCode 15.4. I tried to export all localizations in 15.4, empty the file, re-generate localization strings, re-import languages one by one in 16, starting with different languages (thinking maybe a weird exotic character causes the issue with one of the languages, this happened previously crashing XCode 15 until I found the offending character and replaced it with something else). But generally even after just adding a single language there is a serious slowdown - after adding the second one, XCode hangs again. Note: the app in question has a lot of localizable strings - I had no issue creating a simple project with only a few strings. Just hoping a fix - I really wished the issue was fixed in beta2 but now I am a bit concerned that maybe it's a rare problem and might not get fixed as I saw no similar reports so far.

Hello. I'm seeing an inconsistent behavior where breakpoints I set in my (Swift) iOS app behave normally when I'm debugging on a device or on a simulator running iOS 17.x, but when I try using simulators of iOS 16 or 15 the breakpoints get ignored completely. I also observe that the breakpoints remain solid blue and do NOT adopt the dotted blue outline, as experienced by other users. I've seen a few posts on here and on SO about the general issue of ignored breakpoints (with no conclusive answer AFAIK), but I haven't seen any where the behavior varies with the SDK being used. The behavior is repeatable and predictable (within the same app at least). I am not adding the breakpoints after building/running, and I'm sure the logic reaches the lines with the breakpoints (and again, whenever I switch to an iOS 17 simulator, execution does pause as expected with the exact same breakpoints). Things I've tried and looked into: Clean up project build folder Delete and re-install simulators (iOS 16.4 and 15.5) Deleted the entire derived data directory, as well as the CoreSimulator one. Confirm the build configuration is Debug, and the "Debug executable" option is checked. inspect various build flags mentioned in other posts: {Swift compiler - Code generation - Optimization level - Debug: -0none; Debug information format: DWARF (I also tried DWARF with dSYM with no impact)}. Most of my settings are on the plain vanilla/out of the box side, with only a couple of SPM dependencies, and I've been maintaining the same app for about 5 years and don't think I've come across this behavior before. Currently using Xcode 15.1. Deployment target is 14.0. Thank you.

Hi there, I successfully created an AppIntent for our app, and when I had it in the same target as our main app it showed up fine in the shortcuts app. Then I realized that many of the new System Control widgets introduced in iOS 18 (e.g. lockscreen, control center) live in the widget extension target, but they also need to reference that same AppIntent. So to fix this, I thought I'd migrate out the code into it's own SPM package that both the WidgetExtension and the Main App processes can reference. However, after doing that and rebuilding, the intent no longer shows up in the Shortcuts app. Furthermore, my AppShortcutsProvider class now has this error when trying to define the list of appShortcuts: App Intent <name> should be in the same target as AppShortcutsProvider Is this intended, and if so, how do we reference the same AppIntent across multiple targets?

We started seeing an access issue today when attempting to go to the Xcode Cloud tab in App Store Connect. When you navigate to https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/teams/:teamId/apps/:appId/ci we're seeing the following message: The page you’re looking for can’t be found. The page you’re looking for does not exist, or you do not have permission to view it. I am the account holder so it shouldn't be a permissions issue. Is there an ongoing outage or problem in Xcode Cloud? And, if so, where can I monitor this accurately?

I have an developer account and I want to delete it.How do I do that?

Xcode 16 unindents lines if I choose a code-completion and I cannot find a way to stop this - does anybody know how to stop it? Here's a link to a gif demonstrating this problem - it's incredibly frustrating. https://i.imgur.com/jaDpzpb.gif Thanks in advance

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 am experiencing an issue where XCode reverts .xccurrentversion file in my iOS app to the first version whenever xcodebuild is run or whenever XCode is started. This means I can build the app and run tests in XCode if I discard the reversion .xccurrentversion on XCode start. However, testing on CI is impossible because the version the tests rely on are reverted whenever xcodebuild is run. The commands I run to reproduce the issue ❯ git status Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) modified: Path/.xccurrentversion no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") ❯ git checkout "Path/.xccurrentversion" Updated 1 path from the index ❯ git status nothing to commit, working tree clean ❯ xcodebuild \ -scheme Scheme \ -configuration Configuration \ -sdk iphonesimulator \ -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 16 Pro,OS=latest' \ -skipPackagePluginValidation \ -skipMacroValidation \ test > /dev/null # test fails because model version is reverted ❯ git status HEAD detached at pull/249/merge Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) modified: Path/.xccurrentversion no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") I have experienced such issue in 16.3 (16E140) and 16.2 (16C5032a). Similar issues/solutions I have found online are the following. But they are either not relevant or do not work in my case. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17631587/xcode-modifies-current-coredata-model-version-at-every-launch https://github.com/CocoaPods/Xcodeproj/issues/81 Is anyone aware of any solution? Is there a recommended way I can run diagnostics on XCode and file a feedback?

I have a problem with my xcode. I try to install apps xcodes to manage multiple xcode. My xcode version on 15.2(i try to run on iOS 15 SE1 it's no problem) and after that i try to install xcode 16 beta 3 i try to run iOS 15 SE1 the simulator blank. After that, i delete xcode 16 beta 3 and use xcode 15.2 i try to run on Simulator SE1 iOS 15 the simulator can't response touch. I try to trigger with Device menu on simulator Home, lock, trigger screenshot, etc. The simulator not response touch. How to solve this problem ? how to remove all simulator if uninstall xcodes.

When Xcode 26 Beta 5 compiles my XIBs into NIBs, it spits out a dependency on a class that isn't available pre-macOS 26, named _TtCC6AppKit14NSScrollPocketP33_EC3F85FAB7755D56E669206D2B17725B12BackdropView. All XIBs have a deployment target of macOS 12, so in theory this should be avoided. Even if this is a new (internal) class to macOS 26, the dependency is a problem when the developer is asking to deploy to prior versions. Has anyone else run into this regression? What could possibly be causing the XIB compiler to inject this dependency? The resulting NIBs don't load on anything prior to macOS 26.

Hi, recently something happened in Xcode Cloud, and the build times increased massively. In our CI workflow we run test, and one of the phases executes xcodebuild build-for-testing: the duration of this phase moved from about 8 minutes to about 36 minutes, without any major changes on our side. We observed this: in different apps; even when running a build on a old tag. All other phases don't seem affected, it's just the xcodebuild build-for-testing phase. I'm attaching 2 screenshots of the logs from AppStoreConnect that show the duration of each phase, where build 7600 is older and 7700 is more recent (but was run on a tag from a few weeks ago, to exclude issues related with the code base itself). We had not other option than to disable the CI checks for PRs, because they would take too long, and use up too much of Xcode Cloud time. What's happening? Thanks

Hi, I am creating a custom NSSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer in order to handle attributes of entities of type NSDateComponents. It all works and I did not see any warnings in the "Issue navigator" inside Xcode but with Xcode 15 I started seeing this warning: /Users/.../CustomNSSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer/CoreData:1:1 no NSValueTransformer with class name 'CustomSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer' was found for attribute 'testDate' on entity 'Item' My use case is very simple, I have this custom transformer: @objc(CustomSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer) final class CustomSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer: NSSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer { override class var allowedTopLevelClasses: [AnyClass] { return [NSDateComponents.self] } static let name = NSValueTransformerName(rawValue: String(describing: CustomSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer.self)) public static func register() { let transformer = CustomSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer() ValueTransformer.setValueTransformer(transformer, forName: name) } } which is set to the Core data entity's "Transformer": which leads to the warning in Xcode 15. App works just fine and there are no problems during run time, but this warning is shown and I want to fix it. Here is a simple test project https://github.com/VladimirAmiorkov/CustomNSSecureUnarchiveFromDataTransformer

We have a macOS application packaged as a .pkg file.

There are at the moment a lot of spams for a bank phone number. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/769506 What is really surprising is to read App Store Connect Engineer answer, each time the same: We appreciate your interest in participating in the forums! These forums are for questions about developing software and accessories for Apple platforms. Your question seems related to a consumer feature and is better suited for the Apple Support Communities Is it an automatic answer (I cannot believe anyone who read the post did not notice it was a spam) ? If so, couldn't it simply detect it is a spam (Apple Intelligence could come to help) and delete the message (or the account) ? PS: it would also be a spam in Apple Support Communities PS2: I note the message has been deleted very rapidly.

Around a month back, developers of the OpenJDK project, when using XCode 16 to build the JDK started noticing odd failures when executing code which was compiled using the clang++ compiler shipped in that XCode 16 release (details in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8340341). Specifically, a trivial for loop in a c++ code of the form: int limit = ... // method local variable for (i=0; i<limit; i++) { ... } ends up iterating more times than the specified limit. The "i<limit" returns true even when it should have returned false. In fact, debug log messages within the for loop of the form: fprintf(stderr, "parsing %d of %d, %d < % d == %s", i, limit, i, limit, (i<limit) ? "true" : "false"); would show output of the form: parsing 0 of 2, 0 < 2 == true parsing 1 of 2, 1 < 2 == true parsing 2 of 2, 2 < 2 == true Notice, how it entered the for loop even when 2 < 2 should have prevented it from entering it. Furthermore, notice the message says 2 < 2 == true (which clearly isn't right). This happens when that code is compiled with optimization level -O2 or -O3. The issue doesn't happen with -O1. I had reported this as an issue to Apple through feedback assistance, more than a month back. The feedback id is FB15162411. There hasn't been any response to it nor any indication that the issue has been noticed and can be reproduced (the steps to reproduce have been provided in that issue). In the meantime, more and more users are now running into this failure in JDK when using XCode 16. We haven't put any workaround in place (the only workaround we know of is using -O1 for the compilation of this file) because it isn't clear what exactly is causing this issue (other than the fact that it shows up with specific optimization levels). It's also unknown if this bug has wider impact. Would it be possible to check if FB15162411 is being looked into and any technical details on what's causing this? That would help us decide if it's OK to put in place a temporary workaround in the OpenJDK build and how long to maintain that workaround. For reference, this was reproduced on: clang++ --version Apple clang version 16.0.0 (clang-1600.0.26.3) Target: arm64-apple-darwin23.6.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /xcode-16/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin
