NO_CRASH_STACK with different number of crashes from the App Store.
Hello. For the last few months I have been facing a situation for which I do not understand either the reason or the solution. Here is an example for the last few weeks: In App Store Connect it shows 214 crashes for the last week In Xcode it shows 56 crashes for the last 2 weeks without stack traces (NO_CRASH_STACK) In Firebase Crashlytics there is not a single crash. When I click "Show in Finder" it opens a folder with .xccrashpoint files. As far as I understood from the instructions on posting crash reports - this is not what is needed. Interesting point: it looks like the errors occur on iOS 15-16 devices. I have several questions: Why is the number of crashes in Xcode different from the number in App Store Connect? Where are the other crashes? How can I understand what the problem is if there are no stack traces in Xcode?

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://developer.apple.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?

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!

Hi all, I am hope someone could assist me with the below error if you ever ran into this during Tap-to-Pay functionality integration on iOS/iPadOS devices. Pre-condition: I have received required entitlements for the Tap-to-Pay integration and created Sandbox test account to validate my development work. Used updated development profile with the new capabilities required for the Integration. When i try to test my flow, i keep receiving this error, with multiple sandbox accounts in developer portal. Error (refreshContext): proxy error handler [ Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.merchantd.transaction was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction."

Call Tracking with CallKit Works in Debug Mode but Not in Release (TestFlight) – iOS
I am working on an iOS app using Flutter that tracks outgoing calls using CallKit. The call tracking functionality works perfectly in Debug mode but does not work when the app is published to TestFlight.

Ethernet TSO Issues After Sequoia Update
I have a service that has been running on a 3x cluster of headless M1 Mac Studios since Ventura, and before that on headless Mac minis since Monterey. Now, after updating the Studios from Sonoma to Sequoia, response times have slowed to a crawl. For example, generating and sending a 150KB PDF file normally takes around 20 milliseconds. Now it takes over 15 SECONDS! The daemon code didn't change between updates. The issue seems to center around TSO on the ethernet port. Connecting via a port without TSO works as expected. But the 10 GB ethernet port on the Studio has built-in TSO. I've tried to disable TSO using sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.tso=0. This works for an hour or so before the daemon eventually becomes unresponsive. At this point the daemon has to be terminated and restarted. So for now I'm having to use cheap USB-C to Ethernet adapters to connect the Mac Studios. Is there a configuration setting I'm missing for proper TSO in Network Framework?

Why can't I see the version I built on TestFlight
After developing the IOS app using XCode, I https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list Created Identifiers (HanBaoAI) and locally created Certificate SigningRequest.certSigningRequest https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/certificates/list Created Certificates (Expiry Date 2026/04/21) and also created profiles (HanBaoAI, Expires 2026/04/21), and then https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/apps I created an app (HanBaoAI) and uploaded it to the official website using Product Archive in xcode. The upload was successful, but the official website's testflight showed 1 (processing). When I refreshed the page, there was no information in testflight. May I ask what the reason is? How to solve it? Please provide complete and detailed solution steps.

Xcode doesn't recognise changes in file status, unable to stage and commit to repo.
I'm using Version 16.4 (16F6) of Xcode on macOS 15.5 (24F74) and everything was working fine until I selected an older build to branch out from. Now, Xcode cant properly know the file status as it keeps on changing it after quitting and relaunching it. The changes in the file are there and when trying to commit to the local repo it doesn't show any changes to stage. At present I'm relying on making project folder backups as a way of backing up builds. Any suggestions what can be done?

code coverage broken 0% since Xcode 16.2
Hi, moving from Xcode 16.1 to 16.2, the code coverage percentage is still 0. The project is quite old, but it worked with 16.1. What I tried: converted the old tests to test plans in the settings, including all the various targets (for internal functionality contained in frameworks, each framework has its own test target). added the various code coverage flags to YES. added test hosts to the main targets. played with various settings found in dozens of guides. But nothing. The main app shows 0% coverage, even though the internal frameworks have their own coverage and the files within the main app are tested. On Xcode 16.1, the % appears, but from 16.2 onwards, it doesn't. Also tried with Xcode 26. Any ideas? Thanks

Xcode 26 only opens code files, not Storyboard, Plist, Assets, or others
Has anyone else discovered that Xcode 26 will not open any files that aren’t code? None of my project’s Storyboard, Launch Screen, Assets, built targets, Info plist will open when I click them in the Project Navigator… I just get a blank white screen in the main pane. They still exist, however: I can build my project just fine, using the pre-existing configurations and Storyboard.

 I’ve discovered a workaround, such as it is: I can open my project back in Xcode 16 to edit my Storyboard, and then open it once again in Xcode 26 to build the project. This works, but as you can imagine, it’s a PITA. I’m also not able to access any Xcode 26 improvements to the Interface Builder, if there are any.

 Has anyone else experienced this? Or even fixed it? I can report it as a bug but I'm surprised that I haven't even found anyone else encountering this yet.

Proper includes into Package.swift
Ok, I have a bit of special problem. I want to use the "Swift Upcoming Feature Flags" in my packages. The problem is that we have quite a lot of Packages in a quite deep tree: at the root of the Package directory there are four dirs: AppA/ AppB/ Shared/ Temporary/ also the packages ExternalLibs and BuildPlugins. Temporary contains Packages that need rework and the other three subdirs each contain the subdirs: Features/ Utilities/ Services/ All in all there are over 100 packages. Now I would like to use definitions like https://github.com/treastrain/swift-upcomingfeatureflags-cheatsheet to use in the Package.swift files. And as you might guess, I do not want to copy those into each and every Package.swift file. It seems like SPM is only finding includes by itself if they are in the exact same directory as the Package.swift file 🙄 That's not at all helpful… Has anyone found a way to do useful includes into Package.swift files? Any help appreciated. Thank You Roddi

No models available in Xcode 26 beta Code Assistant
I have downloaded the new Xcode beta, signed in with my ChatGPT account yet there is still no model available for me to select. I have reinstalled Xcode, logged in and out of the ChatGPT integration a dozen times, pressed every single button, but nothing seems to make a model appear? Am I stupid or am I missing something?

cannot update system time on AppleWatch using simctl
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.

Only see "Personal team" although I've been added to my company team
Hello, I've been added as an "App Manager" to a team of my company to which the app I'm developing belongs. I've received the invite e-mail, done all required step. On the websites (Apple Developer and App Store Connect), everything to be fine: I properly appear as a member of the team, I see the application, I can edit it. However, when I log in in Xcode with that account, I only see the "Personal team". Therefore, I got the error "Failed Registering Bundle Identifier" (which makes sense since the app belongs to the team of my company, not to my Personal team). Since the Apple ID I used is my personal Apple ID (which happens to be my personal email address), and I already done some stuff with it, I feared that there was a problem with this particular Apple ID. Therefore, we tried to add me to the team with my professional email address. This time, we added this address as a Developer in the Team. But still the same problem: When I tried to log in in Xcode with that 2nd address, I still only see the Personal team. Note that professional email address has never been used on any Apple product before. I also tried to log out / log in multiple times, restarting XCode, and still the same problem. What are we missing? How can I be able to select the right team in Xcode?

Xcode completion binding not working in 16.2
I'm wondering why 'Select Previous Completion' and 'Select Next Completion' aren't working. I'm using Ctrl-K and Ctrl-J but only my arrow keys work to navigation the completion list. 'Show Completion List' works just fine with Ctrl-Esc. There are no conflicts with any Xcode bindings, and I've checked my system settings for keyboard shortcuts as well.. I've completely disabled copilot, etc.. Is there another setting I'm missing? Or, is this a known issue?

UI Automation not waiting on WatchOS?
On my MacBook Pro M4 with macOS 15.5 and Xcode 16.4, I have a simple SwiftUI-based WatchOS application consisting of a NavigationSplitView that displays a short List of items, and a detail view consisting of a TabView {...}.tabViewStyle(.verticalPage) that displays a fixed number of "pages" of detailed information about the selected list item. When I use XCTest UI Automation with XCUIApplication(), I am finding that I need to add a sleep(1) after every interaction, such as a .tap() or .swipeUp() before I can attempt any assertion such as XCTAssertGreaterThan(app.cells.count, 3) to ensure that the top level List of items is more than 3. All the added sleep(1) statements are making the tests very slow... It appears that the WatchOS implementation of UI Automation lacks the ability to wait until the UI event queue is idle. Am I the only one seeing this?

XCframeworks with arm64e slices on Xcode 26
I have a XCFramework which contains slices for both arm64 and arm64e binaries, but some of my apps are only built for arm64. Prior to Xcode 26, this was not an issue, despite the binary in Frameworks folder still containing the arm64e slice. But now with Xcode 26 I get several errors when uploading to the Appstore: Validation failed Inconsistent arm64e support. The main bundle 'HackerNews.app' does not support arm64e. Verify that the all of the targets including [HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework] have consistent support for arm64e. (ID: 542eb011-2689-47fe-a5d5-d043342820a8) Validation failed Invalid architecture. The iOS 17.4 SDK or later is required for an arm64e slice. The bundle executable in “HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework” contains an arm64e slice with the iOS 17.2 SDK. (ID: 60f2cb75-e4be-4583-bebd-36d119275419) Is this intended behavior with Xcode 26?

Now, Xcode cant properly know the file status as it keeps on changing it after quitting and relaunching it. The changes in the file are there and when trying to commit to the local repo it doesn't show any changes to stage. At present I'm relying on making project folder backups as a way of backing up builds. Any suggestions what can be done?

code coverage broken 0% since Xcode 16.2
Hi, moving from Xcode 16.1 to 16.2, the code coverage percentage is still 0. The project is quite old, but it worked with 16.1. What I tried: converted the old tests to test plans in the settings, including all the various targets (for internal functionality contained in frameworks, each framework has its own test target). added the various code coverage flags to YES. added test hosts to the main targets. played with various settings found in dozens of guides. But nothing. The main app shows 0% coverage, even though the internal frameworks have their own coverage and the files within the main app are tested. On Xcode 16.1, the % appears, but from 16.2 onwards, it doesn't. Also tried with Xcode 26. Any ideas? Thanks

Xcode 26 only opens code files, not Storyboard, Plist, Assets, or others
Has anyone else discovered that Xcode 26 will not open any files that aren’t code? None of my project’s Storyboard, Launch Screen, Assets, built targets, Info plist will open when I click them in the Project Navigator… I just get a blank white screen in the main pane. They still exist, however: I can build my project just fine, using the pre-existing configurations and Storyboard.

 I’ve discovered a workaround, such as it is: I can open my project back in Xcode 16 to edit my Storyboard, and then open it once again in Xcode 26 to build the project. This works, but as you can imagine, it’s a PITA. I’m also not able to access any Xcode 26 improvements to the Interface Builder, if there are any.

 Has anyone else experienced this? Or even fixed it? I can report it as a bug but I'm surprised that I haven't even found anyone else encountering this yet.

Proper includes into Package.swift
Ok, I have a bit of special problem. I want to use the "Swift Upcoming Feature Flags" in my packages. The problem is that we have quite a lot of Packages in a quite deep tree: at the root of the Package directory there are four dirs: AppA/ AppB/ Shared/ Temporary/ also the packages ExternalLibs and BuildPlugins. Temporary contains Packages that need rework and the other three subdirs each contain the subdirs: Features/ Utilities/ Services/ All in all there are over 100 packages. Now I would like to use definitions like https://github.com/treastrain/swift-upcomingfeatureflags-cheatsheet to use in the Package.swift files. And as you might guess, I do not want to copy those into each and every Package.swift file. It seems like SPM is only finding includes by itself if they are in the exact same directory as the Package.swift file 🙄 That's not at all helpful… Has anyone found a way to do useful includes into Package.swift files? Any help appreciated. Thank You Roddi

No models available in Xcode 26 beta Code Assistant
I have downloaded the new Xcode beta, signed in with my ChatGPT account yet there is still no model available for me to select. I have reinstalled Xcode, logged in and out of the ChatGPT integration a dozen times, pressed every single button, but nothing seems to make a model appear? Am I stupid or am I missing something?

cannot update system time on AppleWatch using simctl
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.

Only see "Personal team" although I've been added to my company team
Hello, I've been added as an "App Manager" to a team of my company to which the app I'm developing belongs. I've received the invite e-mail, done all required step. On the websites (Apple Developer and App Store Connect), everything to be fine: I properly appear as a member of the team, I see the application, I can edit it. However, when I log in in Xcode with that account, I only see the "Personal team". Therefore, I got the error "Failed Registering Bundle Identifier" (which makes sense since the app belongs to the team of my company, not to my Personal team). Since the Apple ID I used is my personal Apple ID (which happens to be my personal email address), and I already done some stuff with it, I feared that there was a problem with this particular Apple ID. Therefore, we tried to add me to the team with my professional email address. This time, we added this address as a Developer in the Team. But still the same problem: When I tried to log in in Xcode with that 2nd address, I still only see the Personal team. Note that professional email address has never been used on any Apple product before. I also tried to log out / log in multiple times, restarting XCode, and still the same problem. What are we missing? How can I be able to select the right team in Xcode?

Xcode completion binding not working in 16.2
I'm wondering why 'Select Previous Completion' and 'Select Next Completion' aren't working. I'm using Ctrl-K and Ctrl-J but only my arrow keys work to navigation the completion list. 'Show Completion List' works just fine with Ctrl-Esc. There are no conflicts with any Xcode bindings, and I've checked my system settings for keyboard shortcuts as well.. I've completely disabled copilot, etc.. Is there another setting I'm missing? Or, is this a known issue?

UI Automation not waiting on WatchOS?
On my MacBook Pro M4 with macOS 15.5 and Xcode 16.4, I have a simple SwiftUI-based WatchOS application consisting of a NavigationSplitView that displays a short List of items, and a detail view consisting of a TabView {...}.tabViewStyle(.verticalPage) that displays a fixed number of "pages" of detailed information about the selected list item. When I use XCTest UI Automation with XCUIApplication(), I am finding that I need to add a sleep(1) after every interaction, such as a .tap() or .swipeUp() before I can attempt any assertion such as XCTAssertGreaterThan(app.cells.count, 3) to ensure that the top level List of items is more than 3. All the added sleep(1) statements are making the tests very slow... It appears that the WatchOS implementation of UI Automation lacks the ability to wait until the UI event queue is idle. Am I the only one seeing this?

XCframeworks with arm64e slices on Xcode 26
I have a XCFramework which contains slices for both arm64 and arm64e binaries, but some of my apps are only built for arm64. Prior to Xcode 26, this was not an issue, despite the binary in Frameworks folder still containing the arm64e slice. But now with Xcode 26 I get several errors when uploading to the Appstore: Validation failed Inconsistent arm64e support. The main bundle 'HackerNews.app' does not support arm64e. Verify that the all of the targets including [HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework] have consistent support for arm64e. (ID: 542eb011-2689-47fe-a5d5-d043342820a8) Validation failed Invalid architecture. The iOS 17.4 SDK or later is required for an arm64e slice. The bundle executable in “HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework” contains an arm64e slice with the iOS 17.2 SDK. (ID: 60f2cb75-e4be-4583-bebd-36d119275419) Is this intended behavior with Xcode 26?
