Under Xcode 26 beta 3, how to support new glass icons for iOS 26 and old icons for iOS 18?
I know there are several existing threads on this topic but things keep changing. The release notes for Xcode 26 beta 3 have the following statements for a couple of resolved issues: Asset Catalog Fixed: Unable to set Icon Composer icon as alternate iOS icon (153305178) (FB18025356) Icon Composer Fixed: Icon Composer icons back deploy to older versions of iOS, macOS, and watchOS with inconsistent rendering. (152258860) I had a working solution under beta 1 and beta 2 for both of these. But under beta 3, I am now seeing the new glass icons for my app when running on a simulated iOS 18 device. This is happening for both the main app icon and any alternates. This contradicts the statement that beta 3 fixes this issue. There is no documentation (that I can find) describing how you are supposed to support old icons for iOS 18 and new glass icons for iOS 26. There is no documentation for how to support alternate glass icons for iOS 26. What I'm doing at the moment (that worked before beta 3) was to have the normal iOS 18 app icons in the Asset catalog and to have the new glass icons added to the project. The filenames for the glass .icon files have the same name as the app icons in the Assets catalog. This worked under beta 1 and beta 2. And despite the Xcode 26 beta 3 release notes stating that Icon Composer icons no longer back deploy to iOS 18, I'm seeing the opposite. Beta 3 now does the opposite of that statement. Does anyone have a working solution that supports old iOS 18 app icons and new iOS 26 glass icons using Xcode 26 beta 3? Note, all of my testing is with simulated iOS devices and I'm running Xcode 26 beta 3 under macOS 15.5. Maybe that's an issue?

Xcode 26.1 ChatGPT very slow
ChatGPT in Xcode 26.1 is super slow for me, anyone else? The response returns quickly but the preview window takes a few seconds per line. What it used to do in a few seconds on 26.0 now takes tens of minutes. Anyone else running into this and have suggestions? I'm using the minimal setting on a fast internet connection. M2 Pro MBP, macOS 26.1.

Compiling Swift Package with Dependency on Build Tool Plugin Fails in Xcode 26
Hi, in our Xcode project we have a Tooling package, which defines build tool plugins for generating compile time safe constants for our localization strings as well as assets using swiftgen. This is working very well in Xcode 16, but fails in Xcode 26 beta 1 and beta 2 as well. The failure is specifically: unsupported configuration: the aggregate target 'Localization' has package dependencies, but targets that build for different platforms depend on it. I've reduced this to a minimal sample project, which you can find here.. To reproduce: Open the Repro workspace, that is attached in Xcode. Try to build TestyPackage. You'll see the error. I've filed this bug during WWDC week, but no feedback yet and no solution in Xcode 26 beta 2. Here's the feedback number, in case you have this too and want to file a duplicate: FB17934050. Does anyone else have this issue and perhaps a solution?

Unable to Verify Code Signature with Error 0xe8008018 Despite Troubleshooting Attempts
Hello everyone, I am encountering a persistent issue with Xcode where I’m unable to install my app on a testing device due to the following error message: Failed to verify code signature of /var/installd/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.SznYNY/extracted/iForC.app : 0xe8008018 (The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.) Here’s what I have tried so far to resolve this issue: 1. Ensured that all my certificates and provisioning profiles are current and valid. 2. Removed all related certificates from my Keychain and reinstalled new ones. 3. Cleaned and rebuilt the project multiple times. 4. Unpaired the device and paired it again. 5. Reinstalled the latest version of Xcode. 6. Performed a complete restore of my Mac. Despite these troubleshooting steps, I am still facing the same issue. I would greatly appreciate any insights or experiences related to this error from anyone who has overcome similar challenges. Thank you in advance for your help!

Upload Symbols Failed when Archiving with Xcode 16
Hello everyone, We are seeing some warnings in Xcode 16 when I archive my iOS app for distribution. During the upload phase (either via Xcode Organizer ), I get an error like: WARNING: Upload Symbols Failed The archive did not include a dSYM for MyFramework.framework with the UUIDs: XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX Ensure that the archive’s dSYM folder includes a DWARF file for MyFramework.framework with the expected UUIDs. Question: How can these warnings be fixed? Is this warning safe to ignore if I know the vendor does not supply a dSYM for their framework? If I do need a proper dSYM for full symbolication, how should I request it from the vendor or generate it myself from an XCFramework?

XCode problem
Right now, I am trying the tutorial for SwiftUI from the Apple Developer Program inside of Xcode, but I encountered a problem. Inside of the selectable canvas mode in Xcode, I wanted to command-control-click the element (in this case, a text) to bring up the editing popover and select "Show SwiftUI Inspector." For some reason, on the popover menu, the only option was "Embed." I only wanted the menu point Show SwiftUI Inspector, and I also tried the shortcut Ctrl+Option, but nothing worked. Now is there another method to get to this menu? Or can you help me with that? Noah

X missing dependency on Y because dependency scan of Swift module 'X' discovered a dependency of Y
In my app target Foo, I have a dependency on package Bar. Bar itself have a dependency on another package Other. In my test target FooTests, I have a dependency on package BarTestsHelpers. BarTestsHelpers depends on Bar. When compiling test target FooTests, I get the following unexpected warning in Xcode 26 only: 'Bar' is missing a dependency on 'Other' because dependency scan of Swift module 'Bar' discovered a dependency on 'Other' I can see this is being discussed here as well without a solution. I filled a feedback with a sample project here: FB20602885 It seems that we can remove the warning by explicitly adding the dependency Other on BarTestHelpers. But this shouldn't be needed as BarTestHelpers doesn't use nor know about Other, it only needs it as part of its dependency on Bar.

Adding App Icon to Xcode for Tahoe
I have designed a new icon for my app/Tahoe in Icon Composer (launched from within Xcode)but I simply cannot get it to show up. The documentation for Icon Composer spends a lot of time describing how to design the icons but goes distressingly vague/silent on how one might use it. It suggests that I should drag the file to Xcode and it will guide me as to where to put it. The app continues to use the old (pre-Tahoe) icon. I don't get any change of behaviour and I don't know what to name the file. I assume that there are no other settings that I have to change. I can't find anything on the web or in Apple's documentation: maybe I'm missing something obvious! My app is a working NSDocument-based Cocoa project. Any suggestions please. Tahoe 26.0.1, Xcode 26.0.1, Apple M1 Max MBP.

xcrun altool picking the wrong bundle id
I have 2 app store connect apps: "" ".beta" This is necessary for our usecase as we are building an iOS blockchain wallet, for a chain that updates itself every ~3 months adding new features/changing. We need the communities input, and can't have them uninstalling/re-installing the production app constantly, having to re-import private keys, etc. So we use 1 app store connect app for production releases, and another for public facing long running beta, where we experiment with new features before pulling them into production. Allowing users to have both installed at the same time Last week my CI (without any changes to scripts, project, profiles, etc), started failing for the production build with the error: [altool.105176BE0] Validation failed (409) This bundle is invalid. The bundle identifier cannot be changed from the current value, '<bundle-id>.beta'. If you want to change your bundle identifier, you will need to create a new application in App Store Connect. (ID: ae60bab4-0c01-4b2e-9ea9-91a73adccc14) Nowhere in any of the .app, .ipa, info.plist, provisioning profiles, etc, is it referencing ".beta", everything is referencing "" I tried building it manually locally, same error. I took the local output that failed with xcrun altool, and instead dropped it into Transporter, and it uploaded successfully to the production app Is it possible that xcrun altool is using an app store connect API that changed sometime in the last few weeks? Maybe the search/sort ordering logic has changed?

Warning on Archiving - ExtensionKit extension not embedded
Hello! Ive been working on a package tracking app for iOS and was looking forward to pushing it to TestFlight for some testers to use. When I go to archive the package, I get a warning about the "...TrackerIntents.appex is an ExtensionKit extension and must be embedded in the parent app bundle's Extensions directory, but is embedded in the parent app bundle's Tracker.app/Extensions directory". The extension is for siri integration with shortcuts. I have done quite a lot of things to try and diagnose this but cant seem to get passed this warning. I know it's a warning but would rather it not exist. Ideally I would think its a matter of "moving" the items but in the navigation area, I dont see an extensions area. The main app target has it in the dependencies along with the EmbedExtensionKit Extensions in the Build Phases. Any ideas or configs I can try? I can provide more information if needed. This is on the latest Xcode version 26.0.1 for iOS 26. Thank you.

The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device.
Hello, I’m new to macOS after many years on iPhone, and I’m trying to run a simple app on my iPhone directly from Xcode. The app builds fine in the simulator, but deploying to a real device fails with this error: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError Code: 4 Failure Reason: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. User Info: { DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-10-02 16:55:53 +0000"; "com.apple.dt.DVTCoreDevice.operationName" = connect; } -- The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.RemotePairingError Code: 4 -- I get the same error via command line, e.g. for xcrun devicectl device info apps --device "..." My setup: macOS Version 26.0.1 (Build 25A362) Xcode 26.0.1 (Build 17A400) iPhone 13 on iOS 26.0.1 iPhone is paired with the Mac (I can see it in Finder and in Xcode alongside the simulator). Developer Mode is enabled on the iPhone. I also see my Apple Watch listed in Xcode. I might have enabled Multipath networking in the past - but in iOS 26.0.1, the setting is missing in the Developer settings - so there is no way to check if it's enabled or to disable it. I know this was the solution to a similar problem: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737907 What I tried: Restarted both Mac and iPhone, unpaired them, paired them again. Disabled and re-nabled development mode Tried both Wi-Fi and wired connection (Apple-certified cable). Reset privacy and network settings on the iPhone. Verified I’m not running any VPN. Despite this, deployment always fails with the same tunnel connection error. Has anyone encountered this before or found a solution/workaround? Thank you very much, Martin

X missing dependency on Y because dependency scan of Swift module 'X' discovered a dependency of Y
In my app target Foo, I have a dependency on package Bar. Bar itself have a dependency on another package Other. In my test target FooTests, I have a dependency on package BarTestsHelpers. BarTestsHelpers depends on Bar. When compiling test target FooTests, I get the following unexpected warning in Xcode 26 only: 'Bar' is missing a dependency on 'Other' because dependency scan of Swift module 'Bar' discovered a dependency on 'Other' I can see this is being discussed here as well without a solution. I filled a feedback with a sample project here: FB20602885 It seems that we can remove the warning by explicitly adding the dependency Other on BarTestHelpers. But this shouldn't be needed as BarTestHelpers doesn't use nor know about Other, it only needs it as part of its dependency on Bar.

Adding App Icon to Xcode for Tahoe
I have designed a new icon for my app/Tahoe in Icon Composer (launched from within Xcode)but I simply cannot get it to show up. The documentation for Icon Composer spends a lot of time describing how to design the icons but goes distressingly vague/silent on how one might use it. It suggests that I should drag the file to Xcode and it will guide me as to where to put it. The app continues to use the old (pre-Tahoe) icon. I don't get any change of behaviour and I don't know what to name the file. I assume that there are no other settings that I have to change. I can't find anything on the web or in Apple's documentation: maybe I'm missing something obvious! My app is a working NSDocument-based Cocoa project. Any suggestions please. Tahoe 26.0.1, Xcode 26.0.1, Apple M1 Max MBP.

xcrun altool picking the wrong bundle id
I have 2 app store connect apps: "" ".beta" This is necessary for our usecase as we are building an iOS blockchain wallet, for a chain that updates itself every ~3 months adding new features/changing. We need the communities input, and can't have them uninstalling/re-installing the production app constantly, having to re-import private keys, etc. So we use 1 app store connect app for production releases, and another for public facing long running beta, where we experiment with new features before pulling them into production. Allowing users to have both installed at the same time Last week my CI (without any changes to scripts, project, profiles, etc), started failing for the production build with the error: [altool.105176BE0] Validation failed (409) This bundle is invalid. The bundle identifier cannot be changed from the current value, '<bundle-id>.beta'. If you want to change your bundle identifier, you will need to create a new application in App Store Connect. (ID: ae60bab4-0c01-4b2e-9ea9-91a73adccc14) Nowhere in any of the .app, .ipa, info.plist, provisioning profiles, etc, is it referencing ".beta", everything is referencing "" I tried building it manually locally, same error. I took the local output that failed with xcrun altool, and instead dropped it into Transporter, and it uploaded successfully to the production app Is it possible that xcrun altool is using an app store connect API that changed sometime in the last few weeks? Maybe the search/sort ordering logic has changed?

Warning on Archiving - ExtensionKit extension not embedded
Hello! Ive been working on a package tracking app for iOS and was looking forward to pushing it to TestFlight for some testers to use. When I go to archive the package, I get a warning about the "...TrackerIntents.appex is an ExtensionKit extension and must be embedded in the parent app bundle's Extensions directory, but is embedded in the parent app bundle's Tracker.app/Extensions directory". The extension is for siri integration with shortcuts. I have done quite a lot of things to try and diagnose this but cant seem to get passed this warning. I know it's a warning but would rather it not exist. Ideally I would think its a matter of "moving" the items but in the navigation area, I dont see an extensions area. The main app target has it in the dependencies along with the EmbedExtensionKit Extensions in the Build Phases. Any ideas or configs I can try? I can provide more information if needed. This is on the latest Xcode version 26.0.1 for iOS 26. Thank you.

The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device.
Hello, I’m new to macOS after many years on iPhone, and I’m trying to run a simple app on my iPhone directly from Xcode. The app builds fine in the simulator, but deploying to a real device fails with this error: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError Code: 4 Failure Reason: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. User Info: { DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-10-02 16:55:53 +0000"; "com.apple.dt.DVTCoreDevice.operationName" = connect; } -- The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.RemotePairingError Code: 4 -- I get the same error via command line, e.g. for xcrun devicectl device info apps --device "..." My setup: macOS Version 26.0.1 (Build 25A362) Xcode 26.0.1 (Build 17A400) iPhone 13 on iOS 26.0.1 iPhone is paired with the Mac (I can see it in Finder and in Xcode alongside the simulator). Developer Mode is enabled on the iPhone. I also see my Apple Watch listed in Xcode. I might have enabled Multipath networking in the past - but in iOS 26.0.1, the setting is missing in the Developer settings - so there is no way to check if it's enabled or to disable it. I know this was the solution to a similar problem: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737907 What I tried: Restarted both Mac and iPhone, unpaired them, paired them again. Disabled and re-nabled development mode Tried both Wi-Fi and wired connection (Apple-certified cable). Reset privacy and network settings on the iPhone. Verified I’m not running any VPN. Despite this, deployment always fails with the same tunnel connection error. Has anyone encountered this before or found a solution/workaround? Thank you very much, Martin
