Hi, I'm developing an app and after I change the app icon it's appear this error. Why?
Previously I noticed, and it still does, that in the app settings it does not keep the LauncScreen.storyboard. In the drop-down menu it appears but as soon as I change screen it loses it.
I don't know what to do....
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm using XCode 16 to connect my iPhone. Recently I'm getting an error as below while connecting to Xcode to install the app
Timeout while connecting to remote device.
Domain: com.apple.mobiledevice
Code: -402652910
User Info: {
DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-04-02 15:03:29 +0000";
FunctionName = "_AMDeviceCreateWithRemoteDeviceWithError";
IDERunOperationFailingWorker = IDEInstallCoreDeviceWorker;
LineNumber = 334;
}
System Information
macOS Version 15.3.2 (Build 24D81)
Xcode 16.2 (23507) (Build 16C5032a)
Is there any way we can connect iOS 18 devices through USB only?
Hello everyone, I have the problem at the moment that when I create a new project in a new empty repository, the files are always opened the old project.
I have already deleted all caches and also deleted Xcode 16.2 and reinstalled.
Does anyone of you know the problem?
Best regards
Joerg
I can’t view energy reports in the Xcode Organizer. I keep getting the message “An error occurred while downloading energy reports. Please provide a valid value”
Feedback ID: FB16595567
A while ago, perhaps early in v16, Xcode stopped tracking file liveness. I'd hoped the regression would be fixed, but... not yet.
Is there some setting I'm missing? Is this from underlying filesystem limits? or from working with swift packages?
Conversely, if/since this is a regression, is this the new normal, and not to be fixed (e.g., because the modern build system cannot be retrofitted to detect and update stale resources)?
Assuming I create a Swift package and open it in Xcode...
1. New files
I expect to get errors when I create a new swift file, add bad code, and build.
Instead, the file doesn't seem to be added to the build.
If I try to use Add Files to "{project}".. menu, the file is disabled for selection.
A workaround is to close and re-open the project
2. Files updated extrinsically
If outside Xcode I format the files in the package or edit them, I expect Xcode to notice and either 1) update with the new contents if there were no changes, or 2) ask what to do if there were changes.
Instead, Xcode proceeds oblivious to the underlying changes.
It is not a workaround to use Integrate/Refresh file status menu for SCM status.
Again, a workaround is to close and re-open the project.
Possible factors
Swift package projects, if resource tracking is tied to metadata unused in package projects?
External filesystem: these are on APFS volumes mounted via TB-4 and USB-3
Pilot error?
Impact
This leads me to re-open projects 10's of times a day, to create test files or maintain lint. Also, because I have to drop out of Xcode to process files before checking in, I end up using an external git workflow/UI.
Also, because Xcode is not particularly extensible, I've written external tools for analyzing and generating Swift, hosted via CLI or eclipse (which support resource markers for UI navigation). I use Swift LSP in Eclipse for analysis and git-driven changes, and end up coding there because well, I'm already there.
I'd take slower builds over this continuous hassle and context-switching in a heartbeat.

Hi everyone,
I’m facing a major roadblock with my family location tracking app, and I need some advice or guidance from the community.
Background
Back in 2021, I implemented NSE filtering entitlement to send location-based notifications and retrieve the device's location in return (as suggested by Apple’s technical code support). Over time, I built my app around this entitlement, adding many features that depend on it.
When Location Push Service Extension was introduced for iOS 15+, I adapted accordingly:
NSE filtering was used for devices below iOS 15
Location Push Service Extension was used for iOS 15+
NSE filtering also played a crucial role in:
✅ Accepting/rejecting location-based notifications
✅ Checking device settings & location permissions (since location push won’t work without proper permissions)
The Issue
In November 2024, I created a new developer account to change my business entity. Since then, I’ve been requesting the NSE entitlement repeatedly for four months, but Apple keeps rejecting it. Meanwhile, they approved the Location Push Entitlement, but without NSE filtering, I’m forced to rewrite a huge part of my app’s core functionality.
I’ve sent multiple emails explaining my use case, but I keep getting rejected without any clear explanation or workaround.
My Ask
Has anyone faced a similar issue with NSE entitlement?
Are there any alternative approaches to achieve the same functionality?
Any advice on how to escalate this to Apple or get proper feedback on why it's being rejected?
I’ve invested years into this app, and a forced rewrite would take months. Any help, insights, or contacts who could assist would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance! 🙏

My project is using Fastlane 2.226.0. After converted groups to folders on XCode 16, I got an error when executed below function in Fastfile:
get_version_number(xcodeproj: "MyProject.xcodeproj", target: "MyProject")
Below is the error message output after I ran fastlane:
Unable to find XCode build setting: MARKETING_VERSION
I've been using XCode for development in C++ for several years. Suddenly, today it started having the following problem: Any time I try to compile my code, (even if I just finished successfully compiling it), it spends several minutes running CLangStatCache. This is according to the result of "Perform Action... Build with Timing Summary". Furthermore, if I first delete the ".../DerivedData/SDKStatCaches.noindex" folder, the problem goes away and it compiles immediately. However, it creates a new folder with a 32 Mb file in it, and then has the same problem the next time unless I delete that folder again. I do not want to have to delete this file every time I compile my code. Is there some way to turn this off? What happened that is different today from any other day in the last several years? I did just download and install the latest System software update, including XCode... Did that break something?
I tried to monitor the device's network status with Network framework code below.
let networkMonitor = NWPathMonitor(requiredInterfaceType: .cellular)
networkMonitor.pathUpdateHandler = { [weak self] path in
if path.status == .satisfied {
print("Cellular Satisfied")
} else {
print("Cellular Unsatisfied")
}
}
When I run the app in my iPhone(iOS 15.5) and turn cellular on/off, iPhone suddenly loses connection with XCode.

If I install RealmSwift into an ios app using SPM, I have no problems.
However if I install it into an ios framework, then when building there is this error:
error: missing required modules: 'Realm.Private', 'Realm', 'Realm.Swift'
I have discovered that if I change the import statement from:
import RealmSwift
to
private import RealmSwift
then doing that makes this build error goes away (but doing that isn't a feasible workaround as I would like to publicly export classes stored in Realm from the framework).
There's no point in posting issues with Realm on their support board as its being deprecated and its tumble weeds on their forum.
But I would be very interested in hearing from the Apple expects explanation or speculation on:
why is importing the same framework via SPM into a framework xcode project resulting in different behavior then when importing it into an app?
why would changing import to private import make the build error go away?
TIA
Despite Xcode being the one and most used IDE for iOS, it is far from perfect. I have used many tools in my career and here are some features, that would make it much better or what I miss from other IDEs. I encourage others to chip in discussion and lets all hope, Apple starts to improve Xcode. Will put each issue in separate comment below.
Slow debugger: not sure what bloat Xcode has or what it is doing, but sometimes it can take more than 10 seconds from breakpoint firing to actually see values. Moreover when debugging SwiftUI or something objC I have to drill down to see value of property or use po and p command and hope it works. SwiftUI views and states are a big pain to debug, to see what is changing a value I have to always use didSet trick or some other black magic. Is it too hard to make it easier? Breakpoints with condition can take up to 1 minute to load and I have M1 Max MBP. Just tried cursor IDE few days ago and breakpoints are much faster and without too much bloat in variable inspector.

Currently, it seems impossible to enable this entitlement for local development and testing without first going through Apple’s approval process.
I would like to be able to test how it works on a side project without having to submit the form which seems designed for real app.
There is any trick I can use?
Hello!
I'm trying to flutter run my app but I get this error (Xcode): Command SwiftEmitModule failed with a nonzero exit code
So far I've tried:
rm -rf ios/Pods ios/Podfile.lock
flutter clean && flutter pub get
clean xcode workspace
reinstall xcode
None of the solutions actually work.

I can't get my app's logo to show in the "About" box nor in the app switcher.
I have:
created "Assets.xcassets"
created "AppIcon"
added 10 image files of the logo to the AppIcon image well [? right terminology ?]
saved and built the project – there are no errors or warnings
When I run the project, I still get the default image showing in the About box and in the app switcher.
Because first attempt failed, I changed "applet" to "AppIcon" in "App Icons and Launch Screen" in "General" settings. That did not change the result. I also toggled "Include all app icon assets" which also did not change the result.
Weirdly, my app's logo DOES show beside the app name in every item of "Build Settings".
Do I need to do something else to change the default image in the "About" box ?
Thanks.

I want to install the latest Xcode development software on my Mac, but the xip files won't open. I keep getting the following message:
There was a problem while reading the contents of "Xcode_15 xip":
Data is corrupted
I have tried several unarchiver packages, and keep getting this message. I have also downloaded several other Xcode versions with the same result. Any idea what is going on here and/or how to fix it?

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.
Hi, I'm currently facing an issue where my React Native app crashes only on a real iPhone. On the simulator and in Xcode preview, the app runs fine.
Previously, I had an issue with FlatList regarding props.getItem, which I solved by installing some missing Babel dependencies. After that, everything worked correctly in the simulator.
But when I try to open the app on a real device, it shows the splash screen and crashes immediately. I've already done a full clean and reset, including:
npx react-native start --reset-cache
Deleted node_modules and Pods, reinstalled everything
Cleaned build folder via Xcode
Deleted DerivedData
Restarted Metro bundler and simulator/device
The issue only happens on the physical device.

Hi, I currently have an app that connect to an arduno via CoreBluetooth. However, the app no longer discovers the arduino when the operating system was upgraded to iOS 18.3.1, however on iOS version 17.6.1 the ardiuno was discoverable I was able to test this theory on two different phones each with different iOS versions. Why are my peripherals no longer being discovered with this update? and what is the solution?
