I am developing a game that has 3 team members. I can manually start up 3 simulators and run the game for developing/testing but seem like there should be a simple way to click build/run and have it launch on all three automatically. Does anyone know how to do this or if its even possible without writing some scripts?

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm hoping someone can offer advice on a frustrating situation with my company's Developer Program enrollment process. My timeline: Initial application: October 2024 Initial follow-up: October 2024 Requested document submission: February 2025 Multiple follow-up emails: February-March 2025 Current status: No response for months I've been trying to enroll my small startup (LLC) in the Apple Developer Program since October 2024. After initially being asked for documentation, I uploaded everything possible (including company formation documents). Despite multiple follow-up emails over several months, I've received no updates on my application status or confirmation that my documents were even received. My case number is 102426005487 (sharing in case Apple Support monitors these forums) but as I've followed up several times, there may be more different case numbers. Has anyone experienced similar delays or have suggestions on how to get actual human attention on this issue? I've tried emailing to devprograms multiple times without success. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I am writing to formally escalate my ongoing and unresolved issues with registering a company developer account from Bulgaria. This process, which should be straightforward, has now extended into its 3rd month with no progress, despite my repeated attempts to follow every requirement diligently. Issues Encountered: Web Payment Failure - The system fails to charge my Wise card with no explanation or alternative resolution. Apple Developer App Verification Failure: My ID card is consistently rejected, despite submitting high-quality images that meet every listed requirement. I strongly suspect that your verification service does not properly recognize Bulgarian ID cards. EuroDev Support Response: My experience with eurodev[at]apple.com has been nothing short of disappointing. After resetting my enrollment process, they ceased communication entirely. Prior to that, responses were vague, unhelpful, and did not address my concerns meaningfully. Given the inefficiency and lack of response from the EuroDev team, I am requesting immediate escalation of my case to someone who can provide a concrete resolution. For comparison, my enrollment in Microsoft’s Developer Program was completed within one week, and their support team responded within a single business day. The level of friction in Apple’s process is simply unacceptable for a company of this scale, not to mention what Apple's vision is missing and what they stand for. Looking forward to a prompt and competent response.

Hi! When I run my project on a real device (iPhone 15 Pro), I encounter the following error: Build input file cannot be found: '/Users/Interexy/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/SinglePhotoBook-geecnphrjebsisdmhcyzlsefvphm/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/SinglePhotoBook.app/SinglePhotoBook'. Did you forget to declare this file as an output of a script phase or custom build rule which produces it? How can I solve this? I've already reinstalled Pods and cleaned DerivedData a million times, but the issue persists. Xcode: Version 15.4

Is there a way to mark unused parts of the code? I am developing an app using Objective-C, and I want to delete methods, properties, and classes that are not used in the code. In IDEA, this feature works well, with unused methods grayed out. However, Xcode doesn't have this functionality, making it inconvenient for me to remove unused code.

Starting with Mac OS 16, Document Icons can be generated by defining a background and a Foreground element (see Apple Documentation). I've defined the mentioned elements in my Assets and in the info.plist. Unfortunately I still can't see my custom icons. Neither on existing files, nor on newly saved files. I even added a Legacy Icon - which is also not shown in Mac OS. The full source code of the app is over at gitHub . Would be great if someone could point out what I'm not seeing here. Thanks a lot, Holger Here the relevant part of the info.plist <array> <dict> <key>CFBundleTypeIconFile</key> <string>Legacy</string> <key>CFBundleTypeIconSystemGenerated</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>CFBundleTypeName</key> <string>StateTransfer Request</string> <key>CFBundleTypeRole</key> <string>Editor</string> <key>LSHandlerRank</key> <string>Default</string> <key>LSItemContentTypes</key> <array> <string>de.holgerkrupp.statetransfer.request</string> </array> <key>NSDocumentClass</key> <string>NSDocument</string> </dict> </array> <key>UTExportedTypeDeclarations</key> <array> <dict> <key>UTTypeConformsTo</key> <array/> <key>UTTypeDescription</key> <string>StateTransfer Request</string> <key>UTTypeIconFile</key> <string>Legacy</string> <key>UTTypeIcons</key> <dict> <key>UTTypeIconBackgroundName</key> <string>IconBackground</string> <key>UTTypeIconBadgeName</key> <string>IconForeground</string> <key>UTTypeIconText</key> <string>REST</string> </dict> <key>UTTypeIdentifier</key> <string>de.holgerkrupp.statetransfer.request</string> <key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key> <dict> <key>public.filename-extension</key> <array> <string>httprequest</string> </array> <key>public.mime-type</key> <array> <string>application/json</string> </array> </dict> </dict> </array> <key>UTImportedTypeDeclarations</key> <array> <dict> <key>UTTypeConformsTo</key> <array/> <key>UTTypeDescription</key> <string>StateTransfer Request</string> <key>UTTypeIconFile</key> <string>Legacy</string> <key>UTTypeIcons</key> <dict> <key>UTTypeIconBackgroundName</key> <string>IconBackground</string> <key>UTTypeIconBadgeName</key> <string>IconForeground</string> <key>UTTypeIconText</key> <string>REST</string> </dict> <key>UTTypeIdentifier</key> <string>de.holgerkrupp.statetransfer.request</string> <key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key> <dict> <key>public.filename-extension</key> <array> <string>httprequest</string> </array> <key>public.mime-type</key> <array> <string>application/json</string> </array> </dict> </dict> </array>

Dear Apple & Community, I am encountering an issue while running my Unit tests on Xcode 16. I'm receiving the following error in the debugger area.

Working with .xctestplan files reminds me very much of working with project files and nibs and storyboards back in the day 😅 It seems that they are non-deterministic. This means that every time we add a new test module or edit the inclusion rules at all the whole file is recomputed. But it doesn't have a fixed order so everything in the file changes. It makes it very difficult to see what has happened in PR reviews and causes conflicts any time anything is changed. TBH... because it isn't alphabetical, even just finding a particular test suite is difficult without changes. Are there any plans to bring this file format up to date with the likes of xcodeproj and xib files? It would help massively while working with source control in a larger team. Thanks

Hi, is there documentation on how to write a deep link that will open Xcode on a given file, and optionally a line number? I know about xed, and I would like exactly that functionality, but in link form, so that I can link to a certain file from an app such as Obsidian or from a README.md file. I checked Xcode's Info.plist and it understands several URL schemes, the most promising of which is xcode://, which successfully launches the app, but no matter what I tried, I get an error dialog telling me that Xcode did not understand the URL. Any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Victor

I'd like to give control to the app developer that uses my library to select which level of logs they'd like to see from my lib (e.g. do they want to see all debug messages or just errors). I know there are filtering controls that Xcode gives us, but I'm wondering if there is a way to pull this off with code. Ideally the user callsite would look like MyLib(logLevel: .info). And then I would pass that info level somehow to OSLog. Today, I create my logger like this: let myLogger = Logger( subsystem: Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier ?? "UnknownApp", category: "MyLibrary" ) As far as I can tell, there is nothing I can then pass to my myLogger instance to configure the threshold level. I'm imagining an interface like: myLogger.logLevel(.warning) // Later... myLogger.debug("You won't see this") myLogger.error("But you will see this") Does OSLog and friends give us any ability to do this out of the box, or are we building little wrappers around OSLog to accomplish this? Thank you, Lou

I've got a very simple command-line Swift project that contains a couple of OpenGL shader source files. They need to be accessed at run-time in order to be compiled and linked. For initial debugging, I hard-coded the absolute path to their location in the Xcode project directory, but I switch back and forth between two machines (MacBook Pro and Mac Studio) for which the project paths are different, so this doesn't work well. To solve this, I thought I could get Xcode to copy the shader sources over with the executable file at build time. I'm aware that technically, command-line apps have no resource bundle, but the "Build Phases" -> "Copy Files" section of the project configuration isn't disabled for my project, so I assumed that it could handle this. I added the two shader source files to the set of files to copy, via the "+" button, and set the Destination to "Products Directory". I left the "Subpath" field blank. AFAICT, nothing happens: the "Products/Debug" sub-directory of "~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/..." has the executable, but neither of the shader sources. In fact, they don't appear anywhere inside ~/Library/Developer/Xcode. Okay, perhaps I need to uncheck "Copy only when installing" in the project config? Sadly, as soon as I click to uncheck it, Xcode crashes, even if that's the very first thing I do immediately after Xcode restarts. FWIW, I'm running Xcode 16.2 on a late 2019 MacBook Pro running Sonoma 14.6.1, but I'm pretty sure I've experienced the problem on my 2024 Mac Studio as well.

I get the following status fail when trying to upload a test app to my iPhone. (see attached). I have assigned it to a team, and checked automatic signing. Yet the app fails to load with the error in the image attached. First time getting an app to work properly in Xcode (yay!), and first time trying n failing to deploy it to my iPhone X (iOS 16). The phone is connected and viewable to image capture on my Mac, so I don't think the connection itself is the issue. I am using com.example.myName.appName as the bundle identifier, and since this is not a real domain, I am wondering if that is it. Could use some guidance here... ADVthanksANCE!!

Hello there, I have been using all kind of apple products until now. I must create an application for a company for internal use and I want to distribute it via appstore. I have a problem that applications created are only available for a week nothing more without enrolling to apple developer program. I created a developer account but it says "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program is under review. Please contact us.". I have sent an email regarding the problem but did not get any answers yet. Since I have to publish application as soon as possible I want urgent solution. How to solve this problem?

I have a Mac Mini (M4) running macOS Sequoia 15.3.1. I very recently downloaded and installed the current version of XCode from the app store. I have not added any extensions - it's a vanilla, un-customized, un-enhanced installation. I have two user profiles (accounts) on my Mac: one Administrator and one Standard, each using a different apple account. I am using the Standard user account to learn XCode. When I attempt to set up a project, I get an error message when Xcode initially tries to save the (provided) project template file. The error states: "Failed to save Project2.xcodeproj. The backing file has been modified outside of XCode." I am using a NAS drive to store my project file. I have also tried saving it to the Desktop. It makes no difference to the error wherever the file is being saved. Similarly, I tried changing the Standard user account to an Administrator account to see if it was a privileges problem. Again, it made no difference to the error message. (So I changed the account back to a Standard user). I have tried googling the error but I only find references to problems related to extension/add-in products to XCode: none of which have I added to my XCode installation. I am attaching screenshots of the steps through the project creation process. Hopefully someone can tell me what I am doing wrong or what the problem is. Thank you.

After changing Xcode 16.2 with min iOS 15. I got error in debug mode Assertion failed: (reconstituted == accumulator), function setFixup64, file OutputFile.cpp, line 2975. But project still can archive to IPA. Anyone has the same issue as me?

Hello! We're working on a large app with over 400 modules in both Swift and Objective-C, totaling more than 3 million lines of code. Since the release of Xcode 15 and 16 this summer, we’ve been experiencing issues with LLDB that have made debugging practically impossible. Here are some of the problems we’re facing: The first breakpoint takes a very long time to hit. When using 'po self', we encounter the following error: error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename "$s5MyModule10PlayerViewCD" 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. We get numerous log messages like this: Debugging will be degraded due to missing types.
