unsupported option '-G' for target 'arm64-apple-ios12.0'
I had an Intel macbook and I used that to build and release my app to app store but I didn't release for 2 years. Recently a bug was reported that I needed to update the a code and make a new release with my apple silicon macbook. But I get this issue when I go to Product -> Archive. I tried updating pods, as well as adding following line to the Podfile but no change. platform :ios, "12.0" target "myApp" do use_frameworks! pod "AFNetworking" pod "KVNProgress" pod "GCDWebServer" pod "CocoaLumberjack" pod "Intercom" pod "GoogleWebRTC" pod "SAMKeychain" pod "googleapis", :path => '.' pod 'gRPC', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-Core', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-ProtoRPC', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-RxLibrary', '1.0.0' pod 'BoringSSL-GRPC', '0.0.7' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| if target.name == 'BoringSSL-GRPC' target.source_build_phase.files.each do |file| if file.settings && file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'] flags = file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'].split flags.reject! { |flag| flag == '-GCC_WARN_INHIBIT_ALL_WARNINGS' } file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'] = flags.join(' ') end end end end end Nothing worked for me. What do I do now? I appreciate any help

launchd_sim and AppleSpell deadlock
I've got a 2019 Intel iMac running Sequoia 15.4.1 and Xcode 16.3. Every time I try to view a storyboard Xcode locks up and beachballs on me. It takes minutes to load the file. When I force-quit Xcode, the report that shows up has this as the reason: Processes reached dispatch thread soft limit (64): launchd_sim [96305] [unique pid 194673], launchd_sim [96260] [unique pid 194628] Deadlock: AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df0c4 DispatchQueue 313 -> AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df0c4 DispatchQueue 313 Deadlock: AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df114 DispatchQueue 86 -> AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df114 DispatchQueue 86 Blocked by Deadlock: 1 task - AppleSpell [1494] I'm wondering, why is AppleSpell trying to spell-check a plist file? Is there any way to tell AppleSpell to ignore a file?

Swift Testing Failed to complete Unit Tests -> not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)
I’m migrating some XCTest cases to Swift Testing and hit a runtime error when using tuple arguments within the CI. I don't have an issue when running locally.

Followed docs for "Local Package", how to add to 2nd project?
I have a couple apps in one git repository. I'd like to have a Swift package in that repo as well, shared by apps. In other words, I don't want a separate repo for the Swift package. I followed the instructions here: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/xcode/organizing-your-code-with-local-packages It seems to work. I can write code like this in my app: import MyLocalPackage func foo() { myLocalPackageFunc() } I notice that the package is not listed under Project > MyApp > Package Dependencies. I don't really care, as long as I can reuse code between apps. But when I try to add this package code to a 2nd app, I'm at a loss. I tried "Add Package Dependencies" and "Add Local", but that creates a different looking setup than the 1st app. The code is browsable in the project navigator. And when I try to build it says "Missing package product 'MyLocalPackage'. The documentation linked above, which I used for the 1st app, does a "New > Package". I don't want a new package. How can I connect the existing one?

Why does dependency analysis work for a script that outputs a folder that is copied in copy bundle resources but not once that script is moved to an aggregate target?
This question is a component of this question and an extension to this question which has been solved. This situation might feel a pinch constructed but it is a simplified version of one step of the original question. Basically in my app I have a script that outputs a folder with a few files inside of it. This folder is output to $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/build/ and is referenced via a PBXBuildFile. Because I put a wait in the script (to simulate a long build I have in my real project) it is very obvious when the script is or isn't run. The goal would be for it to run only when its dependencies have changed. The trick is if I put this script as a "run script" phase within my final target dependency analysis works great. The script only runs when the dependencies are updated. However if I put the "run script" phase into an aggregate target then add it as a Target Dependency in the main target Xcode wants to run the script every time. Regardless of if the dependencies have changed. However if you build just the aggregate target alone everything goes just fine. It only builds when it has to. To me this does not quite make sense. I thought that dependency analysis of the script within my aggregate target would be the same regardless of whether that script was within the aggregate target or the main target. In my app I ideally need the aggregate target to be shared by multiple other targets. While I could put the script in each it would be more foolproof to have them share an aggregate target. Why would dependency analysis come to a different conclusion when the script is within an aggregate target that is a target dependency of the main target? If it helps here is the script and the entire project can be found here on GitHub if you would like to play with it. mkdir -p "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/" echo "Pausing for 10 seconds before creating files..." sleep 10 cat "${SCRIPT_INPUT_FILE_0}" cat > "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/index.html" << EOF <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Simple Page</title> </head> <body> <h1>Welcome to Simple Page</h1> <p>Generated at: $(date)</p> </body> </html> EOF cat > "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/page.html" << 'EOF' <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Simple Page</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> EOF

Network Instability in TestFlight Builds When Using Xcode 16+
We are experiencing networking issues in our iOS application when it is built with Xcode 16 or later. Our app includes a video conferencing feature that works reliably when built with Xcode 15 or earlier — we can sustain hour-long video sessions without interruption. However, when the app is built using Xcode 16 or higher, network connections drop after 2–3 minutes during a session. This triggers an auto-reconnect, which succeeds, but the connection drops again after another 2–3 minutes. This loop continues indefinitely. Key Details: The issue only occurs in TestFlight builds. When running the app via Xcode debugger, the issue does not occur. The issue is consistently reproducible in TestFlight builds created with Xcode 16 or later. TestFlight builds created with Xcode 15 do not exhibit this issue. All the videoconferencing runs on C and C++ code What We’ve Tried: Reviewed Xcode 16+ release notes but found no relevant changes or deprecations. Verified app configuration and entitlements. Confirmed that no app-side changes occurred between the working and broken builds. Request: We’re seeking guidance on what changes in Xcode 16+ could be affecting networking behavior in release/TestFlight builds. Any insight into relevant build settings, compiler changes, or runtime behavior differences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Unity iOS app crashes due to memory overloading
We are using Unity 6000.0.51f1 for an iOS app for iPhones and iPads. We have added Firebase Crashlytics to the project. We are getting several app crash issues in iPhones and iPads as well. However, in Firebase, there is no record of the crash; the app simply closes on iOS without any error. We are using so many UnityWebRequests for APIs in the project. We optimized these coroutine functions to reduce memory overload, but still we are getting app crashes. What optimization techniques can we employ in the project to address this issue? And what memory optimization techniques, texture techniques, can we use to address this issue? Please help!

SFSpeechRecognizer is not working inside visionOS 2.4 simulator
I know there has been issues with SFSpeechRecognizer in iOS 17+ inside the simulator. Running into issues with speech not being recognised inside the visionOS 2.4 simulator as well (likely because it borrows from iOS frameworks). Just wondering if anyone has any work arounds or advice for this simulator issue. I can't test on device because I don't have an Apple Vision Pro. Using Swift 6 on Xcode 16.3. Below are the console logs & the code that I am using.

Most useless Xcode error message ever
Neither a google search, nor a search of the Apple forums give me a clue as to how to locate or fix the following message I get from Xcode. CLIENT: Failure to determine if this machine is in the process of shutting down, err=1/Operation not permitted This error message came from attempting to build and execute an iOS App which ran just fine the last time I built it. Now, that was actually a little over two years ago. This is an iOS app, which I've run successfully for more than a year on macOS, and that, "My Mac (Designed for iPad)", is what my build target for this run was. Any ideas? Anyone? If this is a "known condition", just why doesn't a friendly internet search or a search of the Apple forums NOT tell me what it means, or what causes the message. Of course, I've upgraded the OS a few times, and updated Xcode as well, but have just not had any time to monkey around with my pet code project. Now that I've gotten some time, and I want to see what's new since March of '23, I finally remember where I stashed my code repository and decided to take it for a spin. Sure, I expect(ed) to see Xcode tell me that the version of Swift has been updated, and maybe some code constructs need to be fixed. But, NO, the code compiles fine. The first build attempt told me that I needed to update my provisioning profiles, and sign-in and agree to the updated developer agreements, which I did. Not so unhelpful was the code window in the debugger: libswiftCore.dylib`swift_willThrow: -> 0x1aeb7b2a0 <+0>: pacibsp 0x1aeb7b2a4 <+4>: str x19, [sp, #-0x20]! 0x1aeb7b2a8 <+8>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2ac <+12>: add x29, sp, #0x10 0x1aeb7b2b0 <+16>: adrp x8, 365651 0x1aeb7b2b4 <+20>: add x8, x8, #0x88 ; _swift_willThrow 0x1aeb7b2b8 <+24>: ldapr x8, [x8] 0x1aeb7b2bc <+28>: cbnz x8, 0x1aeb7b2cc ; <+44> 0x1aeb7b2c0 <+32>: ldp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2c4 <+36>: ldr x19, [sp], #0x20 0x1aeb7b2c8 <+40>: retab 0x1aeb7b2cc <+44>: mov x0, x21 0x1aeb7b2d0 <+48>: mov x19, x21 0x1aeb7b2d4 <+52>: blraaz x8 0x1aeb7b2d8 <+56>: mov x21, x19 0x1aeb7b2dc <+60>: b 0x1aeb7b2c0 ; <+32> Still not much to go on. I decide to see if it was a macOS vs. iOS issue, so did a clean build folder and tried running on an iPad simulator, "iPad (10th generation)". Now, I have a blank white screen on my simulator and not much to go on in the code window. import SwiftUI @main struct JottoApp: App { Thread1: Breakpoint 1.1 var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { UITableView.appearance().backgroundColor = UIColor.clear } } Any and all help with this error message will be appreciated.

Stale Issues, refreshAllObjects() is not working
Hi Experts, Could you please help. Issue at high level: After Editing a View contains a Table entries, saved and hit back button to display View, Table entries are duplicated or displaying previous and current entries together. Here is my Issue in detailed. List view display, clicking on any row, would navigate to DisplayView of a record. I am displaying a table in DisplayView. DisplayView contains "row" as parameter, and it must be initialized in "init" method, where I use row.key and fetch another table (say ColorTab) using Color.Key. DisplayView contains "NavigationView", with Edit button. it displays fetched Colors. example Red and Green. when user click on Edit, it takes to EditPage. user can remove / add colors. Once user made changes, saved and hit back button. Table entries are duplicated or showing previous and current entries. Options tried, a) init method is only triggering 1st time, not triggering when back button clicked, I failed to use FetchRequest outside of init method, I tried on OnAppear too. i didn't trigger. b) Failed to use FetchRequest inside of var Body too. c) tried using viewContext.refreshAllObjects() .. it is not refreshing the table. Could you please help if there is solution for the issue. Thanks, Bhanu

Script to modify CFBundleVersion
I am using a script originally developed by Tommy in 2014. It updates the info.plist value for CFBundleVersion. Latest version of Xcode 16.4 modifies the behavior of the script. If I clean the build folder, the value is set by the script that runs after Copy Bundle Resources and modifies the info.plist file in the Debug version of the app. Subsequent runs using the same build seem to execute the script but the info.plist value reverts to the value set in the source directory. The script calculates a value based on the number of revisions to the current branch.

Questions about Deployment Targets in Xcode
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 can write code like this in my app: import MyLocalPackage func foo() { myLocalPackageFunc() } I notice that the package is not listed under Project > MyApp > Package Dependencies. I don't really care, as long as I can reuse code between apps. But when I try to add this package code to a 2nd app, I'm at a loss. I tried "Add Package Dependencies" and "Add Local", but that creates a different looking setup than the 1st app. The code is browsable in the project navigator. And when I try to build it says "Missing package product 'MyLocalPackage'. The documentation linked above, which I used for the 1st app, does a "New > Package". I don't want a new package. How can I connect the existing one?

Why does dependency analysis work for a script that outputs a folder that is copied in copy bundle resources but not once that script is moved to an aggregate target?
This question is a component of this question and an extension to this question which has been solved. This situation might feel a pinch constructed but it is a simplified version of one step of the original question. Basically in my app I have a script that outputs a folder with a few files inside of it. This folder is output to $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/build/ and is referenced via a PBXBuildFile. Because I put a wait in the script (to simulate a long build I have in my real project) it is very obvious when the script is or isn't run. The goal would be for it to run only when its dependencies have changed. The trick is if I put this script as a "run script" phase within my final target dependency analysis works great. The script only runs when the dependencies are updated. However if I put the "run script" phase into an aggregate target then add it as a Target Dependency in the main target Xcode wants to run the script every time. Regardless of if the dependencies have changed. However if you build just the aggregate target alone everything goes just fine. It only builds when it has to. To me this does not quite make sense. I thought that dependency analysis of the script within my aggregate target would be the same regardless of whether that script was within the aggregate target or the main target. In my app I ideally need the aggregate target to be shared by multiple other targets. While I could put the script in each it would be more foolproof to have them share an aggregate target. Why would dependency analysis come to a different conclusion when the script is within an aggregate target that is a target dependency of the main target? If it helps here is the script and the entire project can be found here on GitHub if you would like to play with it. mkdir -p "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/" echo "Pausing for 10 seconds before creating files..." sleep 10 cat "${SCRIPT_INPUT_FILE_0}" cat > "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/index.html" << EOF <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Simple Page</title> </head> <body> <h1>Welcome to Simple Page</h1> <p>Generated at: $(date)</p> </body> </html> EOF cat > "${SCRIPT_OUTPUT_FILE_0}/build/page.html" << 'EOF' <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Simple Page</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> EOF

Network Instability in TestFlight Builds When Using Xcode 16+
We are experiencing networking issues in our iOS application when it is built with Xcode 16 or later. Our app includes a video conferencing feature that works reliably when built with Xcode 15 or earlier — we can sustain hour-long video sessions without interruption. However, when the app is built using Xcode 16 or higher, network connections drop after 2–3 minutes during a session. This triggers an auto-reconnect, which succeeds, but the connection drops again after another 2–3 minutes. This loop continues indefinitely. Key Details: The issue only occurs in TestFlight builds. When running the app via Xcode debugger, the issue does not occur. The issue is consistently reproducible in TestFlight builds created with Xcode 16 or later. TestFlight builds created with Xcode 15 do not exhibit this issue. All the videoconferencing runs on C and C++ code What We’ve Tried: Reviewed Xcode 16+ release notes but found no relevant changes or deprecations. Verified app configuration and entitlements. Confirmed that no app-side changes occurred between the working and broken builds. Request: We’re seeking guidance on what changes in Xcode 16+ could be affecting networking behavior in release/TestFlight builds. Any insight into relevant build settings, compiler changes, or runtime behavior differences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Unity iOS app crashes due to memory overloading
We are using Unity 6000.0.51f1 for an iOS app for iPhones and iPads. We have added Firebase Crashlytics to the project. We are getting several app crash issues in iPhones and iPads as well. However, in Firebase, there is no record of the crash; the app simply closes on iOS without any error. We are using so many UnityWebRequests for APIs in the project. We optimized these coroutine functions to reduce memory overload, but still we are getting app crashes. What optimization techniques can we employ in the project to address this issue? And what memory optimization techniques, texture techniques, can we use to address this issue? Please help!

SFSpeechRecognizer is not working inside visionOS 2.4 simulator
I know there has been issues with SFSpeechRecognizer in iOS 17+ inside the simulator. Running into issues with speech not being recognised inside the visionOS 2.4 simulator as well (likely because it borrows from iOS frameworks). Just wondering if anyone has any work arounds or advice for this simulator issue. I can't test on device because I don't have an Apple Vision Pro. Using Swift 6 on Xcode 16.3. Below are the console logs & the code that I am using.

Most useless Xcode error message ever
Neither a google search, nor a search of the Apple forums give me a clue as to how to locate or fix the following message I get from Xcode. CLIENT: Failure to determine if this machine is in the process of shutting down, err=1/Operation not permitted This error message came from attempting to build and execute an iOS App which ran just fine the last time I built it. Now, that was actually a little over two years ago. This is an iOS app, which I've run successfully for more than a year on macOS, and that, "My Mac (Designed for iPad)", is what my build target for this run was. Any ideas? Anyone? If this is a "known condition", just why doesn't a friendly internet search or a search of the Apple forums NOT tell me what it means, or what causes the message. Of course, I've upgraded the OS a few times, and updated Xcode as well, but have just not had any time to monkey around with my pet code project. Now that I've gotten some time, and I want to see what's new since March of '23, I finally remember where I stashed my code repository and decided to take it for a spin. Sure, I expect(ed) to see Xcode tell me that the version of Swift has been updated, and maybe some code constructs need to be fixed. But, NO, the code compiles fine. The first build attempt told me that I needed to update my provisioning profiles, and sign-in and agree to the updated developer agreements, which I did. Not so unhelpful was the code window in the debugger: libswiftCore.dylib`swift_willThrow: -> 0x1aeb7b2a0 <+0>: pacibsp 0x1aeb7b2a4 <+4>: str x19, [sp, #-0x20]! 0x1aeb7b2a8 <+8>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2ac <+12>: add x29, sp, #0x10 0x1aeb7b2b0 <+16>: adrp x8, 365651 0x1aeb7b2b4 <+20>: add x8, x8, #0x88 ; _swift_willThrow 0x1aeb7b2b8 <+24>: ldapr x8, [x8] 0x1aeb7b2bc <+28>: cbnz x8, 0x1aeb7b2cc ; <+44> 0x1aeb7b2c0 <+32>: ldp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2c4 <+36>: ldr x19, [sp], #0x20 0x1aeb7b2c8 <+40>: retab 0x1aeb7b2cc <+44>: mov x0, x21 0x1aeb7b2d0 <+48>: mov x19, x21 0x1aeb7b2d4 <+52>: blraaz x8 0x1aeb7b2d8 <+56>: mov x21, x19 0x1aeb7b2dc <+60>: b 0x1aeb7b2c0 ; <+32> Still not much to go on. I decide to see if it was a macOS vs. iOS issue, so did a clean build folder and tried running on an iPad simulator, "iPad (10th generation)". Now, I have a blank white screen on my simulator and not much to go on in the code window. import SwiftUI @main struct JottoApp: App { Thread1: Breakpoint 1.1 var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { UITableView.appearance().backgroundColor = UIColor.clear } } Any and all help with this error message will be appreciated.

Stale Issues, refreshAllObjects() is not working
Hi Experts, Could you please help. Issue at high level: After Editing a View contains a Table entries, saved and hit back button to display View, Table entries are duplicated or displaying previous and current entries together. Here is my Issue in detailed. List view display, clicking on any row, would navigate to DisplayView of a record. I am displaying a table in DisplayView. DisplayView contains "row" as parameter, and it must be initialized in "init" method, where I use row.key and fetch another table (say ColorTab) using Color.Key. DisplayView contains "NavigationView", with Edit button. it displays fetched Colors. example Red and Green. when user click on Edit, it takes to EditPage. user can remove / add colors. Once user made changes, saved and hit back button. Table entries are duplicated or showing previous and current entries. Options tried, a) init method is only triggering 1st time, not triggering when back button clicked, I failed to use FetchRequest outside of init method, I tried on OnAppear too. i didn't trigger. b) Failed to use FetchRequest inside of var Body too. c) tried using viewContext.refreshAllObjects() .. it is not refreshing the table. Could you please help if there is solution for the issue. Thanks, Bhanu

Script to modify CFBundleVersion
I am using a script originally developed by Tommy in 2014. It updates the info.plist value for CFBundleVersion. Latest version of Xcode 16.4 modifies the behavior of the script. If I clean the build folder, the value is set by the script that runs after Copy Bundle Resources and modifies the info.plist file in the Debug version of the app. Subsequent runs using the same build seem to execute the script but the info.plist value reverts to the value set in the source directory. The script calculates a value based on the number of revisions to the current branch.

Questions about Deployment Targets in Xcode
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?
