I have a project (that uses pre-compiled headers) that uses different compiler options for SOME files. For those files I have this is in my CMakelists.txt: if(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID MATCHES "GNU|Clang") set_source_files_properties(${AVX_Files} PROPERTIES COMPILE_OPTIONS "-mavx;-mavx2;-mfma;-mssse3;-msse4.2") set_source_files_properties(avx_simd_check.cpp PROPERTIES COMPILE_OPTIONS "-mxsave") endif() When I build for ARM, it all works :) When I try to build for X86_64, I get the following error for avx_simd_check.cpp: error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+xsave' but the AST file was not 1 error generated. and for all the other files in question: error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+avx' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+avx2' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+fma' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+sse4.2' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+ssse3' but the AST file was not 5 errors generated. How can I solve this please? David

Hi, I followed Xcode’s recommendation and migrated to the new strings format (*.strings → *.xcstrings) using the Migrate to String Catalog option. My project has two build targets: MyAppName MyAppNameVFSCopy Every time I build one or the other target, the value in the .xcstrings file changes under CFBundleName > en > stringUnit > value, switching between MyAppName and MyAppNameVFSCopy. As a result, Git detects a change in source control each time, which is quite annoying. How can I prevent this from happening? After building MyAppNameVFSCopy target, the "value" is MyAppNameVFSCopy "CFBundleName" : { "comment" : "Bundle name", "extractionState" : "extracted_with_value", "localizations" : { "en" : { "stringUnit" : { "state" : "new", "value" : "MyAppNameVFScopy" } } } } After building MyAppName target, the "value" changes to MyAppName "CFBundleName" : { "comment" : "Bundle name", "extractionState" : "extracted_with_value", "localizations" : { "en" : { "stringUnit" : { "state" : "new", "value" : "MyAppName" } } } } Deleting CFBundleName from *.xcstrings file didn't help. CFBundleName is automatically created again after building target. Both targets has it's on plist file. In those files: <key>CFBundleName</key> <string>${PRODUCT_NAME}</string> Attaching full xcstrings file InfoPlist.xcstrings

Hello All I'm encountering an issue with Keychain access in iOS simulators after reinstalling Xcode. My app successfully accesses the Keychain on physical devices, but simulators consistently fail with errors. Details: App uses Keychain to store API keys Works perfectly on physical devices After Xcode reinstall, simulator Keychain access fails Error logs show "Keychain retrieve failed for key with status: -25300" I've properly configured Keychain Sharing entitlements My entitlements file includes: $(AppIdentifierPrefix)******* What I've tried: Resetting simulators Deleting simulator Keychain databases manually Adding Keychain Sharing capability Ensuring entitlements are correct My app worked fine with simulators before reinstalling Xcode, which suggests something changed in the development environment rather than my code. Has anyone encountered similar issues? Is there a recommended approach for handling Keychain access in simulators that's more resilient to Xcode environment changes? Thanks for your help!

Xcode 16.4, MacOS Sequoia 15.5 If I try to use a logger in an Xcode Playground e.g. import os import UIKit var logger = Logger(subsystem: "Loggertest", category: "") logger.info("Hello, world!") I get the following error error: Couldn't look up symbols: ___dso_handle ___dso_handle Hint: The expression tried to call a function that is not present in the target, perhaps because it was optimized out by the compiler. Its the logger.info ... that is causing the error. I have raised FB18214090 but there are no other reports. I would be grateful if some of you could verify if the Playground runs or errors on your system. A workaround, still using Logger, would be a great help. Thanks, Chris

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?

After updating to 16.3, my project now fails to compile with the diagnostic: "Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code". This is a SwiftUI document project with two local packages, the second of which is a rather large one with 112 SwiftUI files. It is this second package that is failing. There are no issues when compiling with 16.2. Without diagnostics I'm having a bit of difficulty in determining the cause. My thought is to regress the commits unit 16.3 gives a success, or shows issues. Although I'm not catching a similar issue in the forums, I'm seeing other problems with 16.3. Has anyone else had such build failure isolated to 16.3? Any advice on other ways to approach this problem? Thanks in advance

Just wondering if it is possible to configure a secondary macbook to act as a run destination in Xcode, similar to how you would configure an iPhone as a run destination. I have tried connecting my device via USB-C and I can see that my macbook detects the second macbook via USB but it does not show up when trying to add devices in Xcode. I suppose this flow might not be supported?

Hi, This maybe somewhat confusing, but please bear with me. I currently have an app in the App Store that supports iOS and tvOS. But the tvOS version was a separate app during the development process. I'd like to combine the iOS and tvOS app into one project so its easier to handle and keep track of internally. Can I upload the new Apple TV version to the same place where the current one is, or would I have to delete the current Apple TV version before uploading the newly combined version? I hope I made that clear enough :-) Thank you, Dan Uff

I am attempting to generate screenshots at various logical times using a watchOS 11 simulator. % xcrun simctl status_bar "Apple Watch Series 10 (46mm)" override --time 9:06 An error was encountered processing the command (domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code=45): Simulator device failed to complete the requested operation. Operation not supported Underlying error (domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code=45): Status bar overrides not supported on this platform. Operation not supported Using WatchOS Clock Settings gives me at most 59 minutes in which to succeed. Even if I had a physical watch for every series and size, I would have to wait up to 23 hours before being able to generate my marketing screenshots to support various user scenarios. With three settings variations, a minimal wait time to get to good marketable content would be on the order of 1 month per app version.

I'm integrating Apple Pay with PayFort in a Swift iOS application, and I’m currently working on preparing a valid purchase request using Apple Pay, as described in PayFort’s documentation: 🔗 https://docsbeta.payfort.com/docs/api/build/index.html?shell#apple-pay-authorization-purchase-request The documentation outlines the following required parameters: apple_data apple_signature apple_header apple_transactionId apple_ephemeralPublicKey apple_publicKeyHash apple_paymentMethod apple_displayName apple_network apple_type Optional: apple_applicationData I understand these should be derived from the PKPayment object after Apple Pay authorization, but I’m having trouble mapping everything correctly. Here’s what I’m seeing in code: payment.token // Returns something like: <PKPaymentToken: 0x28080ae80; transactionIdentifier: "..."; paymentData: 3780 bytes> payment.token.paymentData // Contains 3780 bytes of encrypted data payment.token.paymentData.base64EncodedString() // Returns a long base64 string, which at first glance seems like it could be used for apple_data, // but PayFort doesn't accept it as-is — so this value appears to be incomplete or incorrectly formatted I can successfully retrieve the following values from payment.token.paymentMethod: apple_displayName apple_network apple_type However, I’m still unsure how to extract or build the following in the format accepted by PayFort: apple_data apple_signature apple_header apple_transactionId apple_ephemeralPublicKey apple_publicKeyHash apple_paymentMethod These may be contained within the paymentData JSON, but I’m not sure how to decode it or if Apple allows decrypting it in a way that matches PayFort’s expected format. How can I correctly extract or build apple_data, apple_signature, and apple_header from the Apple Pay token? Also, how should I handle the decryption or decoding (if necessary) of paymentData to retrieve values like apple_transactionId, apple_ephemeralPublicKey, and apple_publicKeyHash? If anyone has successfully set this up or has example code that bridges Apple Pay and PayFort’s expected request format, it would be super helpful! Thanks in advance 🙏

Hi, I compiled Intel Open Image Denoise library for iOS, and obtained a bunch of dependent dylibs. I want to use these ones in a swift project (via bridging as this is C/C++) targeting the iPad. I understand that it is required to embed these dylibs into frameworks as iOS doesn't allow dylib. Is it necessary to generate one framework for each dylib? If so, how are dependencies between the libraries (and their frameworks) managed? Or, is it possible to generate only one framework embeding all the dependencies?

New betas of the platforms were released today (June 23), but I don't see any update for Xcode. Is there a way to get the Xcode 26 beta 1 to install the beta2 OSes for the simulator somehow? Or do we simply need to wait for an update?

Using Xcode 26.0 beta (17A5241e) Wanted to try out raw identifiers for Swift Testing tests, and while they work, syntax colorization is dreadful. Much less readable then just using a custom name with @Test. Feedback: FB18260756 Example with a raw identifier of some example test name:

As far as I know, there was a time that you can capture GPU workload for opengles game app on iOS using Xcode. However, currently I'm using Xcode version 15.2 and iOS18，it seems the "capture GPU workload" button is always disabled when I'm trying to debug my game app which is using opengles api for graphics rendering no matter switchinng "GPU Frame Capture" to "OpenGL ES" or "Metal" or "Automatically" in the scheme. And I'm not able to capture GPU workload for my game on iOS. The only way to make the "capture GPU workload" button enabled is creating a new project using metal api for graphics rendering. But I don't want to change the graphics API, because it will cause a lot. Does Xcode still support capturing GPU workload for OpenGLES game app on iOS? If not, is there an alternative way?

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying since yesterday to set up an Apple Watch app alongside my iOS app, but it’s not working at all. I created the app by adding a new target, selected watchOS > App, and linked it to my iOS project. When I run the Apple Watch scheme directly, the app works, but if I try to install it on my Apple Watch via the iOS app, it doesn’t work. Every time I tap install, I get a message saying that the installation failed. While reading the documentation, they mention an Info.plist file that is supposed to be generated with the watchOS app, but when I check, I don’t see any .plist file. Is that normal? Thanks for your help.

Hello, I'm sure I've probably missed a checkbox somewhere.. I have a mulitiplatform app, when building from Xcode, and not using the testing config, both iOS and macOS show the correct App Store currency.. When I distribute a build through TestFlight, my Mac version shows a different country/currency price (the US one). I can't find anywhere to change this. My Mac is signed into the same sandbox account as my iOS device. Can anyone help?

Hey, I've been having a lot of problems with Xcode 16 not seeing changes made to code in local Swift packages (the packages are inside the root directory of the project). Whenever I make any change like renaming a variable or type, or adding new methods or whatever, autocomplete doesn't see those changes and when I type in that new type/variable manually it gives me an error. However, building the project still works fine, even with the errors never going away. The only way for it to notice the code changes is to clean the project and build it again which takes a long time. At first, I thought this was connected to the new "Explicitly built modules" feature in Xcode 16, but I turned it off and it still happens. Any ideas what I can try? I'm on the latest Xcode version, but this problem has been happening since Xcode 16 originally came out. Thanks! Dennis

The “Deployment Targets” for iOS was IOS12 or higher in Xcode15, but is now listed as IOS15 or higher in Xcode16. https://aninterestingwebsite.com/support/xcode/ How does this change affect developers and users? For example, if a developer specifies less than iOS15 in the “iOS Deployment Target” on Xcode, how will this affect them? Also, will users under iOS 15 be unable to run the apps?

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?
