Unable to send iMessage game extension on simulator
I recently started building an iMessage game, and whenever I try to send the game through the first contact on the simulator to loop back into the second one, I get an alert saying "Unable to send. The recipient can not receive this item via satellite". Has anyone experienced this? If so, do you have a solution? It is making it a bit difficult to test the flow of my app.

App alternative icon not working when archieve.
I add the following info in the build settings of my app. Then I also add the icon to my asset. I build the app, it works normally, but I notice that when I changed the icon to 'AppIcon-Defaults', The icon change alert didn't appear. but it succeeds . I uploaded the archive to App Store I got: ITMS-90895: Missing Icon - The Info.plist key CFBundleIcons.CFBundleAlternateIcons contains an entry “AppIcon-Defaults” that references asset “AppIcon-Defaults.” No such asset is present in the asset catalog. Then I use xcrun --sdk iphoneos assetutil --info Assets.car to check the assets inside the archieved app, It have the asset.

XCode does not recognize my iPhone
I'm trying to run my app on my iPhone and XCode is unable to detect it. Versions (as of time of writing, these are all the latest versions) XCode: 15.0.1 iOS: 17.1.2 macOS: Sonoma 14.1.2 What I've tried Updating all hardware to the latest versions. Restarting all hardware. Clearing cache/derived data. Using different USBC ports/cables. Using the XCode 15.1-Beta 3 (the latest beta) Clearing trusted computers and re-trusting Disabling Multipath Networking (solution for someone else on the dev forums) Creating a brand new xcode project. Disabling all wifi/bluetooth and reconnecting Using different wifi networks Calling mac support (they directed me back here) Scouring forums What happens I start by disconnecting my phone from my computer, clear trusted computers, restart xcode, and start (basically) from a completely blank slate. First I open XCode to my project. Then I connect my iPhone via USBC. I see that XCode says "iPhone not eligible while pairing in progress" (or something like that). I see on my phone that I must trust this computer, I hit trust, I enter my phone's passcode, then that disappears on my phone, and in XCode the message about eligibility disappears. I then click on the device selector to choose between either a simulator or a hardware device and under hardware I only see a message that says "No eligible devices connected to my mac". If I open the "Manage Run Destinations" organizer I see all the simulators there in the simulators tab, but when I go to the Devices tab, I see nothing. Sometimes when I go through this process, I can get a banner to appear up top, but still no device shows up on the left. The banner will show me that it is indeed my iPhone, but it will be missing information like "Serial Number" or "Capacity". Here's a screenshot of what I see. Keep in mind, this banner up top does not always show up when I go through this process. iPhone CAN be detected on my other laptop When I do this exact same thing on my other laptop, everything works just fine. Here are the specs I'm running on that laptop. (using the same cable/wifi network/etc) XCode 15.0.1 macOS: Ventura 13.6.1 iPhone 17.1.2 (I'm using the same iPhone) The only difference here being the macOS version. However, the problem started on my "broken" computer while I was running a previous major macOS version. This problem is actually what prompted my to do a system update to Sonoma. Please for the love of god, halp!!!

-Xlinker -reproducible flag breaks debug symbols for static library which object files has same name
Hi! For example i have library with structure like ModuleA/test.cpp, ModuleB/test.cpp, then i build it like: #Building library clang++ -c ModuleA/test.cpp -o ModuleA/test.o clang++ -c ModuleB/test.cpp -o ModuleB/test.o libtool -o module.a ModuleA/test.o ModuleB/test.o #Now reproducing build steps from Xcode #Compiling... clang++ -c main.cpp -o main.o #Linking... clang++ -Xlinker -reproducible -o main main.o module.a Now if we launch lldb main, we cant set breakpoint in file ModuleB/test.cpp, only in ModuleA/test.cpp, if link without -Xlinker -reproducible, both breakpoints working as expected. Also dsymutil completely delete symbols for "duplicate" library if link with reproducible flag. It's just example, in real static library i can't change behavior of building process, and can't change names of producing object files. Xcode always set -Xlinker -reproducible flag, and i don't know how to disable it, and my debugging process partially broken. ENV: macos: 15.4.1 Xcode: 16.2

TestFlight version of Mac Multiplatform is on the wrong AppStore, but not the iOS TestFlight build
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?

[Help] Xcode device debugging of iOS 18.4 / 18.5 is very slow, and it is suspected to be stuck in the stage of loading dynamic libraries in debugserver
Environment Xcode version: Xcode 16.0 iOS device system version: iOS 18.4 / 18.5 Problem description When debugging iOS 18.4/18.5 on a real device, the App starts very slowly after clicking Run, usually taking 2-3 minutes, which is much slower than iOS 18.3. It manifests as Xcode staying in the Launch stage for a long time, and the application stuck in the opening screen interface. Start the APP first, then attach the process, and this problem will not exist Location process Use lldb to enable logs log enable gdb-remote packets After observing the logs, it was found that: The jam mainly occurs when processing two data packets: jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos and qProcessInfo These two commands involve dynamic library loading information and process meta information, and the response time is much higher than the normal level, far exceeding other gdb-remote instructions Use Instruments / Profiler to analyze: The CPU peak of the real machine debugserver is concentrated in the dynamic library information loading process of _dyld_process_info_create Is there a way to deploy a modified debugserver on the real machine to further locate the problem How to enable and view the debugsever log to further locate the problem

LLDB error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename
All is fine in Xcode15, no LLDB errors whatsoever, but in Xcode16 I can't get any variable displayed in the console because of the following error: error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename "$......." was not found (cached) error: Couldn't realize Swift AST type of self. Hint: using `v` to directly inspect variables and fields may still work. I've checked the output of swift-healthcheck and there are several messages like this: SwiftASTContextForExpressions(module: "ROA", cu: "ROA+ViewLayer.swift")::LoadOneModule() -- Missing Swift module or Clang module found for "UIKit", "imported" via SwiftDWARFImporterDelegate. Hint: Register Swift modules with the linker using -add_ast_path. I added -add_ast_path to the OTHER_LDFLAGS in the faulty module's build settings but no luck. How can I debug my project in Xcode16?

Xcode has high CPU usage when apparently doing nothing for hours
In 2020 I created FB7719215, which I updated several times (including just now) and in 2021 I created FB9204092, but the issue is still there: when I keep Xcode open (currently version 16.3), my battery drains much quicker, even when it's apparently idle. For instance, today I barely did anything in Xcode, but still it has been at a constant 90% CPU for the last hours, and I keep checking the battery percentage to check how much time I have left. Does anyone at Apple has an explanation, workaround and/or fix?

tvOS icon missing layers
I have an AppleTV app which I released in 2016. I've updated it and released a new version every year without much hassle. This year, with tvOS 17.2, the layered app icon isn't working right. This is a two-layer image made with PNGs. When it's selected, it looks right and the layers move correctly: But when it's not selected, the background layer disappears: Screenshots are from the simulator but it also happens on the device. It's inconsistent; sometimes it's the front layer that disappears. Occasionally both layers work, but I can't tell why. I've spent a day trying everything. Very frustrated. The icon previews correctly in Xcode and in Parallax Viewer. The image sizes are correct: 400 x 240 for Small, 800 x 480 for Small@2x, 1280 x 768 for Large. The back layer is a non-transparent PNG. I tried adding a Large@2x set. Didn't help. Originally I had a three-layer image with no middle layer PNG. I deleted the empty middle layer, but that didn't help. All the PNG files are from GnuIMP. Same color space, even. I was using the filenames tvicon-back-s.png and tvicon-back-s@2x.png. I tried taking out the @ sign in case that was confusing Xcode. (It never has before, but I am flailing here.) Anybody have any clues? If it's an Apple bug and there's nothing I can do, I'm going to just push the release button and hope it fixes itself someday.

Blocker: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.
Hello, FWIW I've been developing enterprise iOS apps going on 10 years and haven't seen a bug like this. It's a major blocker. Any advice is welcome. Pulled latest from my team's repository . I ran into a build issue. Reinstalled cocoa pods, resolved swift packages, cleared cache, and then tried to update my iOS simulators... Since then, everything is bricked. Can't side load an app or download a simulator. When I try to download simulator, as suggested by Xcode, I receive the following error: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.

[S:1] Error received: Connection invalidated on empty project
Hello everyone, I'm encountering a persistent issue with my newly created widget project, even though it’s a clean, minimal setup. Every time I try to run the widget on the simulator or a device, I get the following error message: [S:1] Error received: Connection invalidated. I get this error even in a new project (I just created a new one) when I add a widget extension to it. The app itself works fine—no errors—but when I try to install the widget extension, it always shows me this error. Initially, I thought the issue was caused by an incorrect URLSession, but even after creating a clean (default) widget extension, the issue persists. I don’t know what to think anymore. Has anyone encountered this before? It’s completely blocking my progress. Conditions - new project from iOS App template WidgetExtension from template with no changes Iphone 14 pro IOS - 18.3.2

Start the APP first, then attach the process, and this problem will not exist Location process Use lldb to enable logs log enable gdb-remote packets After observing the logs, it was found that: The jam mainly occurs when processing two data packets: jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos and qProcessInfo These two commands involve dynamic library loading information and process meta information, and the response time is much higher than the normal level, far exceeding other gdb-remote instructions Use Instruments / Profiler to analyze: The CPU peak of the real machine debugserver is concentrated in the dynamic library information loading process of _dyld_process_info_create Is there a way to deploy a modified debugserver on the real machine to further locate the problem How to enable and view the debugsever log to further locate the problem

LLDB error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename
All is fine in Xcode15, no LLDB errors whatsoever, but in Xcode16 I can't get any variable displayed in the console because of the following error: error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename "$......." was not found (cached) error: Couldn't realize Swift AST type of self. Hint: using `v` to directly inspect variables and fields may still work. I've checked the output of swift-healthcheck and there are several messages like this: SwiftASTContextForExpressions(module: "ROA", cu: "ROA+ViewLayer.swift")::LoadOneModule() -- Missing Swift module or Clang module found for "UIKit", "imported" via SwiftDWARFImporterDelegate. Hint: Register Swift modules with the linker using -add_ast_path. I added -add_ast_path to the OTHER_LDFLAGS in the faulty module's build settings but no luck. How can I debug my project in Xcode16?

Xcode has high CPU usage when apparently doing nothing for hours
In 2020 I created FB7719215, which I updated several times (including just now) and in 2021 I created FB9204092, but the issue is still there: when I keep Xcode open (currently version 16.3), my battery drains much quicker, even when it's apparently idle. For instance, today I barely did anything in Xcode, but still it has been at a constant 90% CPU for the last hours, and I keep checking the battery percentage to check how much time I have left. Does anyone at Apple has an explanation, workaround and/or fix?

tvOS icon missing layers
I have an AppleTV app which I released in 2016. I've updated it and released a new version every year without much hassle. This year, with tvOS 17.2, the layered app icon isn't working right. This is a two-layer image made with PNGs. When it's selected, it looks right and the layers move correctly: But when it's not selected, the background layer disappears: Screenshots are from the simulator but it also happens on the device. It's inconsistent; sometimes it's the front layer that disappears. Occasionally both layers work, but I can't tell why. I've spent a day trying everything. Very frustrated. The icon previews correctly in Xcode and in Parallax Viewer. The image sizes are correct: 400 x 240 for Small, 800 x 480 for Small@2x, 1280 x 768 for Large. The back layer is a non-transparent PNG. I tried adding a Large@2x set. Didn't help. Originally I had a three-layer image with no middle layer PNG. I deleted the empty middle layer, but that didn't help. All the PNG files are from GnuIMP. Same color space, even. I was using the filenames tvicon-back-s.png and tvicon-back-s@2x.png. I tried taking out the @ sign in case that was confusing Xcode. (It never has before, but I am flailing here.) Anybody have any clues? If it's an Apple bug and there's nothing I can do, I'm going to just push the release button and hope it fixes itself someday.

Blocker: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.
Hello, FWIW I've been developing enterprise iOS apps going on 10 years and haven't seen a bug like this. It's a major blocker. Any advice is welcome. Pulled latest from my team's repository . I ran into a build issue. Reinstalled cocoa pods, resolved swift packages, cleared cache, and then tried to update my iOS simulators... Since then, everything is bricked. Can't side load an app or download a simulator. When I try to download simulator, as suggested by Xcode, I receive the following error: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed. Domain: DVTDownloadableErrorDomain Code: 29 User Info: { DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-05-28 19:18:13 +0000"; } Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.

I've cleared caches. I cleared project builds and all old simulators. I've reverted to much older previous commits after trying above just in case (even though I've verified no one else on my team is experiencing this issue). Nothing works.

Xcode opens multiple Terminal windows when running app
Whenever I run anything in xcode it opens an extra terminal that runs the program then exits immediately, but the app still runs through the normal xcode launch. It's not a huge issue but It's getting really annoying to realize I have like 7 windows of terminal open that are just doing nothing. Has anyone had this issue before?

[S:1] Error received: Connection invalidated on empty project
Hello everyone, I'm encountering a persistent issue with my newly created widget project, even though it’s a clean, minimal setup. Every time I try to run the widget on the simulator or a device, I get the following error message: [S:1] Error received: Connection invalidated. I get this error even in a new project (I just created a new one) when I add a widget extension to it. The app itself works fine—no errors—but when I try to install the widget extension, it always shows me this error. Initially, I thought the issue was caused by an incorrect URLSession, but even after creating a clean (default) widget extension, the issue persists. I don’t know what to think anymore. Has anyone encountered this before? It’s completely blocking my progress. Conditions - new project from iOS App template WidgetExtension from template with no changes Iphone 14 pro IOS - 18.3.2
