Resolving a "Simulator runtime is not available" error
Some Macs recently received a macOS system update which disabled the simulator runtimes used by Xcode 15, including the simulators for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. If your Mac received this update, you will receive the following error message and will be unable to use the simulator: The com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime is not available. Domain: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code: 401 Failure Reason: runtime profile not found using "System" match policy Recovery Suggestion: Download the com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime from the Xcode To resume using the simulator, please reboot your Mac. After rebooting, check Xcode Preferences → Platforms to ensure that the simulator runtime you would like to use is still installed. If it is missing, use the Get button to download it again. The Xcode 15.3 Release Notes are also updated with this information.

App crashes on launch for iOS 12 users after App Store release (Xcode 16.4) — BKSProcessErrorDomain bootstrap-failed
Hi everyone, I'm building an app in Xcode 16.4 with a minimum deployment target of iOS 12. The last time I built with this configuration was November 2025 — that build worked perfectly fine. I'm aware that builds from Xcode 16.4 will no longer be accepted by Apple after April 28, 2026, so I decided to push one final update before that deadline. Here's what I did: Built the app with no changes to build settings Uploaded to TestFlight Tested on iOS 12, iOS 26, and a few other versions — everything looked good Passed App Review Published to the App Store Now users on iOS 12 are reporting that the app crashes immediately on launch. Users on iOS 13-26 are unaffected. We've effectively lost a significant portion of our users overnight. We'd really like to restore functionality for them before April 28 — after that we plan to raise the minimum deployment target anyway. There are no crash logs available, as the app appears to never reach application code at all. Below are the relevant logs from Console.app: default 16:33:49.012231+0400 SpringBoard Bootstrapping MY_BUNDLE_ID with intent foreground-interactive error 16:33:49.021533+0400 SpringBoard [MY_BUNDLE_ID] Bootstrap failed with error: <NSError: 0x280f59aa0; domain: BKSProcessErrorDomain; code: 1 (bootstrap-failed); reason: "Failed to start job"> error 16:33:49.021748+0400 SpringBoard Bootstrapping failed for <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> with error: Error Domain=BKSProcessErrorDomain Code=1 "Unable to bootstrap process with bundleID MY_BUNDLE_ID" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Unable to bootstrap process with bundleID MY_BUNDLE_ID, BKSProcessExitReason=0, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Failed to start job, NSUnderlyingError=0x280f58780 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=3 "No such process" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=The process failed to exec, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Consult /var/log/com.apple.xpc.launchd/launchd.log for more information, NSLocalizedDescription=Unable to get valid task name port right for pid 241}}, BSErrorCodeDescription=bootstrap-failed} default 16:33:49.021934+0400 SpringBoard Adding: <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> default 16:33:49.022111+0400 SpringBoard <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> exited. default 16:33:49.023325+0400 SpringBoard Removing: <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> default 16:33:49.039576+0400 assertiond Submitting new job for "MY_BUNDLE_ID" on behalf of <BKProcess: 0x100d119f0; SpringBoard; com.apple.springboard; pid: 48; agency: SystemShell; visibility: foreground; task: running> default 16:33:49.039982+0400 assertiond Submitted job with label: UIKitApplication:MY_BUNDLE_ID[0xed03][58] error 16:33:49.040128+0400 assertiond Unable to obtain a task name port right for pid 241: (os/kern) failure (0x5) error 16:33:49.040286+0400 assertiond Failed to start job with error <NSError: 0x100c3f180; domain: NSPOSIXErrorDomain; code: 3; reason: "The process failed to exec"> { description = "Unable to get valid task name port right for pid 241"; failureReason = "The process failed to exec"; recoverySuggestion = "Consult /var/log/com.apple.xpc.launchd/launchd.log for more information"; Has anyone encountered this recently? Any help would be greatly appreciated. P.S. I tried rebuilding from scratch without any code changes and uploading a fresh build to TestFlight — but now it won't even launch from TestFlight on iOS 12.

App targeting iOS 12 crashes on launch when installed via TestFlight but works via Ad Hoc and Xcode direct install
My app targets iOS 12.0 and crashes immediately on launch when installed via TestFlight on an iPad running iOS 12.x. The same archive works perfectly when installed via Ad Hoc distribution or directly from Xcode. This is a regression — the exact same source code, compiled with the same Xcode version, was successfully distributed via TestFlight and the App Store last month (March 2026) without issues. No changes were made to the code, Xcode version, or signing configuration. Steps to reproduce: Archive an app with IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET = 12.0 using Xcode 16.4 Upload to App Store Connect Install via TestFlight on an iPad running iOS 12.x App crashes immediately on launch (pre-main, no crash log generated) Expected: App launches normally (as it did last month) Actual: App is killed immediately, process exits with reason: (none) Console.app shows the process never transitions from xpcproxy to the actual binary — it dies within ~260ms of bootstrap, indicating a dyld or app thinning issue. Environment: Xcode: 16.4 Deployment target: iOS 12.0 ENABLE_BITCODE: NO Device: iOS 12.x Ad Hoc install: WORKS Xcode direct install: WORKS TestFlight install: CRASHES App Store install: CRASHES Anyone else seeing this?

Apple watch Xcode pairing & connection issues
I’m blocked debugging a watchOS app on a physical Apple Watch. The iPhone connects to Xcode normally (wired), but the Watch either fails to connect with a tunnel timeout or disappears entirely from Xcode after I unpaired it inside Devices & Simulators. Environment Mac: macOS 26.x (Apple Silicon Mac) Xcode: 26.2 iPhone: iOS 26.1 Apple Watch Ultra: watchOS 26.2 (build 23S303) Connection: iPhone connected to Mac via USB (trusted). Watch paired to iPhone and working normally in the Watch app. Issue A (when Watch is visible in Xcode) In Xcode → Window → Devices and Simulators, the Watch shows up but is not usable and fails to connect. Error: “Previous preparation error: A connection to this device could not be established.” “Timed out while attempting to establish tunnel using negotiated network parameters.” In some attempts the Watch shows “Capacity: Unknown” / limited details, and then fails during preparation. Issue B (after unpairing Watch in Xcode only) I unpaired/removed the Watch in Xcode (Devices & Simulators). I did not unpair the Watch from the iPhone. Now: iPhone appears in Xcode and works normally for builds. Watch is still paired to the iPhone and works normally. Watch no longer appears anywhere in Xcode Devices & Simulators (no paired watch section, no watch run destination). What I’ve tried Reboots of Mac, iPhone, Watch (multiple times) Watch unlocked, awake; iPhone unlocked and close to Watch Verified Watch is paired and connected in iPhone Watch app Developer Mode enabled on iPhone and Watch Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ON (Mac/iPhone/Watch), tried toggling both Tried on home Wi-Fi and also with iPhone hotspot (same result) Resetting trust prompts / reconnecting iPhone via USB, re-trusting Mac Apple Watch: “Clear Trusted Computers” Xcode: removing/re-adding devices; clearing derived data; restarting Xcode Watch Developer networking test: Responsiveness = Medium (430 RPM) Questions 1. Is this a known issue/regression with Xcode 26.2 + watchOS 26.2 tunneling (CoreDevice / devicectl)? 2. Is there an Apple-supported way to force Xcode to re-discover a paired Watch after it was removed from Xcode Devices & Simulators (without unpairing the Watch from the iPhone)? 3. Any recommended logs or diagnostic steps I should collect (Console logs, sysdiagnose, specific Xcode/CoreDevice logs) to include in a Feedback report? If helpful, I can provide the full error text from Xcode’s Devices window and any logs you recommend. Thank you in advance,

‌Xcode26-built apps cannot run on iPhone 6 or earlier devices‌
‌Using Xcode 26, the built package encounters device compatibility issues — while it installs successfully on supported iPhone devices, but it crashes immediately upon launch and cannot run normally.‌‌In previous versions of Xcode, the same "minimum deployment" setting in the project did not cause such compatibility issues.‌ The app built with Xcode 26 shows the following behavior when installed and tested on various devices:‌ iPhone6p iOS12.5.8 fails to run 2.iPhone6 iOS11 fails to run 3.Iphone6 iOS12.5.7 fails to run 4.iPhone7 iOS12.1.3 ok 5.iPhoneX iOS 12.2 ok 6.iphone6s plus iOS10.3.1 ok 7.iphoneXS. iOS 12.1.4 ok 8.iPhone11 iOS 13.6.1 ok 9.iPhone7. iOS 13.7 ok We have tested and found that an iPhone 6s Plus running iOS 10.3.1 can normally run the app. We would like to know whether apps built with Xcode 26 are inherently incompatible with iPhone 6 and older devices. Has Xcode 26’s underlying build environment removed full support for the A8 chip, resulting in binary files containing instructions or memory models that older devices cannot parse? ‌Looking forward to your reply‌.

Xcode 26.4 rc
Since 26.4 beta 3 I've been having errors after a few hours of using Claude Agent. I get an error stating that I am not authed. If I go into Xcode settings, it still shows I am signed into Claude Agent. I have click sign out and then go through the whole auth process again to start using the agent again. This is on two separate computers. Is there anything I can do to stop this behaviour and stay logged in for longer? It worked fine in 26.3.

IPhone fails to connect with Xcode in presence of multiple WebContentFilters
I am facing an intermittent problem where iPhones are failing to pair/connect with Xcode under Xcode -> Windows -> Devices and Simulators. This happens when more than one web content filters are present, for instance, I have my web content filter (FilterSockets true, FilterGrade Firewall) and there is also Sentinel One web content filter with same configuration. Note: We are not blocking any flow from remoted / remotepairingd / core device service / MDRemoteServiceSupport etc processes. But they do get paused and resumed at times for our internal traffic verification logic. So, we are trying to understand what impact our content filter may be having on this iPhone Pairing?? If we stop either one of the filters the problem goes away. I have tracked the network traffic to the phone, and it seems to be using a ethernet interface (en5/en10) over the USB-C cable. I can see endpoints like this: localEndpoint = fe80::7:afff:fea1:edb8%en5.54442 remoteEndpoint = fe80::7:afff:fea1:ed47%en5.49813 I also see remoted process has the below ports open : sudo lsof -nP -iTCP -iUDP | grep remoted remoted 376 root 4u IPv6 0xce4a89bddba37bce 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57395->[fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:ed47]:58783 (ESTABLISHED) remoted 376 root 6u IPv6 0xf20811f6922613c7 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57396 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 7u IPv6 0x2c393a52251fcc56 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57397 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 8u IPv6 0xcb9c311b0ec1d6a0 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57398 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 9u IPv6 0xc582859e0623fe4e 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57399 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 10u IPv6 0x2f7d9cee24a44c5b 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57400->[fd6e:8a96:a57d::1]:60448 (ESTABLISHED) remoted 376 root 11u IPv6 0xbdb7003643659de 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57419 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 12u IPv6 0x569a5b649ff8f957 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57420 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 13u IPv6 0xa034657978a7da29 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57421->[fd07:2e7e:2a83::1]:61729 (ESTABLISHED) But due to the dynamic nature of port and IPs used we are not able to decide on an effective early bypass NEFilterRule. We don't want to use a very broad bypass criteria like all link local IPs etc. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

React Native IAP: getProducts returns empty array in TestFlight despite complete configuration
Hi everyone, I’m currently developing an iOS app using React Native and implementing consumable In-App Purchases (IAP). I'm facing an issue where getProducts returns an empty array without any error messages when testing on a TestFlight build. I have already completed the following setup: Agreements, Tax, and Banking: All forms are signed and the status is "Active" in App Store Connect. Product Configuration: The Consumable product is created in App Store Connect with the status "Ready to Submit". App Store Connect Integration: The product is correctly linked under the "In-App Purchases and Subscriptions" section of the App version. Xcode Capability: The "In-App Purchase" capability has been added to the project. Implementation: The Product ID in my React Native code (using react-native-iap) matches the ID in App Store Connect exactly. Despite these steps, the product list remains empty. Are there any hidden requirements or specific configurations for TestFlight that I might have missed? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Xcode 26.4 cannot run app-hosted unit tests on physical iOS 16 devices ("Logic Testing Unavailable")
Summary: After upgrading to Xcode 26.4, app-hosted XCTest execution on physical devices running iOS 16 fails at test-planning time with "Logic Testing Unavailable." The same project and same device work under Xcode 26.2. The failure reproduces with a standalone minimal Xcode project, which suggests this is an Xcode regression rather than a project-configuration issue. Environment: Xcode: 26.4 (17E192) macOS: Tahoe 26.4 Failing device: iPhone 11 (iPhone12,1), iOS 16.0.3 Working comparisons: Xcode 26.2 + same iPhone 11 (iOS 16.0.3): works Xcode 26.4 + iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) on iOS 26.3: works Regression: Yes. Works on Xcode 26.2. Fails on Xcode 26.4. Same project, same signing setup, same physical iOS 16 device. Minimal reproduction: A minimal sample project with: one iOS app target one app-hosted unit-test target one UI-test target (for comparison; not required to reproduce) Steps for the unit-test repro on a physical device running iOS 16: Build for testing: xcodebuild -project TestProject.xcodeproj \ -scheme TestProject-UnitTests \ -sdk iphoneos \ -destination 'platform=iOS,id=<DEVICE_UDID>' \ -derivedDataPath DerivedData-Device-Unit \ -resultBundlePath Results-Device-Unit-Build.xcresult \ DEVELOPMENT_TEAM=<TEAM_ID> \ CODE_SIGN_STYLE=Automatic \ build-for-testing Run tests without building: xcodebuild -project TestProject.xcodeproj \ -scheme TestProject-UnitTests \ -sdk iphoneos \ -destination 'platform=iOS,id=<DEVICE_UDID>' \ -derivedDataPath DerivedData-Device-Unit \ -resultBundlePath Results-Device-Unit-Test.xcresult \ DEVELOPMENT_TEAM=<TEAM_ID> \ CODE_SIGN_STYLE=Automatic \ test-without-building Note: xcodebuild test (combined build and test) also fails with the same error. Expected result: The hosted unit tests run successfully on the connected physical device, as they do under Xcode 26.2. Actual result: Step 1 (build-for-testing) succeeds. Step 2 (test-without-building) fails immediately (within ~1 second) with: 2026-03-26 11:23:28.683 xcodebuild[51930:731004] DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. 2026-03-26 11:23:28.725 xcodebuild[51930:730966] [MT] DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. 2026-03-26 11:23:29.239 xcodebuild[51930:730966] Writing error result bundle to /var/folders/jl/knmkq18x4cg_3w087zgpfldm0000gn/T/ResultBundle_2026-26-03_11-23-0029.xcresult xcodebuild: error: Failed to build project TestProject with scheme TestProject-UnitTests.: Cannot test target “redacted” on “redacted”: Logic Testing Unavailable Logic Testing on iOS devices is not supported. You can run logic tests on the Simulator. Why this looks like an Xcode regression: The same project and same physical iOS 16.0.3 device work under Xcode 26.2. Under Xcode 26.4, build-for-testing still succeeds, so signing, provisioning, and bundle construction appear valid. The failure happens only when Xcode plans or launches the on-device test run. Before the failure, Xcode 26.4 logs: DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. A newer physical device running iOS 26.3 works under Xcode 26.4 without this warning. The issue also reproduces with a minimal standalone Xcode project, which makes a project-specific configuration problem unlikely. The Xcode-generated .xctestrun files for the passing Xcode 26.2 case and failing Xcode 26.4 case are structurally equivalent, making an .xctestrun format difference unlikely to be the cause.

Xcode 26.4: IBOutlets/IBActions gutter circles missing — cannot connect storyboard to code (works in 26.3)
I’m seeing a regression in Xcode 26.4 where Interface Builder will not allow connecting IBOutlets or IBActions. Symptoms: The usual gutter circle/dot does not appear next to IBOutlet / IBAction in the code editor Because of this, I cannot: drag from storyboard → code drag from code → storyboard The class is valid and already connected to the storyboard (existing outlets work) Assistant Editor opens the correct view controller file Important: The exact same project, unchanged, works perfectly in Xcode 26.3. I can create and connect outlets/actions normally there. ⸻ Environment Xcode: 26.4 macOS: 26.4 Mac Mini M4 Pro 64G Ram Project: Objective-C UIKit app using Storyboards This is a long-running, ObjC, project (not newly created) ⸻ What I’ve already tried To rule out the usual suspects: Verified View Controller Custom Class is correctly set in Identity Inspector Verified files are in the correct Target Membership Verified outlets are declared correctly in the .h file: @property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *exampleLabel; Opened correct file manually (not relying on Automatic Assistant) Tried both: storyboard → code drag code → storyboard drag Tried using Connections Inspector Clean Build Folder Deleted entire DerivedData Restarted Xcode Updated macOS to 26.4 Ran: sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch Confirmed required platform components installed Reopened project fresh ⸻ Observations In Xcode 26.4 the outlet “connection circles” are completely missing In Xcode 26.3 they appear immediately for the same code Existing connections still function at runtime — this is purely an Interface Builder issue ⸻ Question The gutter circles appearance has always been flaky in Xcode over the 13+ years I've been using it but now with 26.4 they have completely disappeared. Has anyone else seen this in Xcode 26.4, or found a workaround? At this point it looks like a regression in Interface Builder, but I haven’t found any mention of it yet.

Since I have downloaded latest Xcode version I am having Project Navigator in the Menu Style UI and not in the Tab based UI, the one earlier. Also, I am not able to find any options to change Project Navigator style. Please provide user the option to change UI to either Menu based or Tab based Project Navigator UI ( Projects, Source Control, Bookmark, find etc )

Localization in Swift macOS console Apps.
Is it possible to build localization into console apps, developed in SwiftUI in Xcode26. I have created a catalog, (.xcstrings file) with an English and fr-CA string. I have tried to display the French text without success. I am using the console app to test a package which also has English/French text. English text works fine in both package and the console main, but I cannot generate the French. From what I can discover so far it's not possible without bundling it as a .app, (console app). Looking for anyone who has crossed this bridge.

Different app behavior when running on device from Xcode
I have an app I am working on that makes a REST call, updates the UI with the info, and sends a notification. When I run Build and Run my app from Xcode using my iPhone as the destination, it works exactly as I want it to - my REST calls and notifications continue to work when the app is in the background. However, when I run my app that has been installed on my iPhone from the Xcode build/run directly (without Xcode in the picture), it does NOT behave correctly and only works when my app is in the foreground. What am I missing?

My app fails to launch since I have changed of iPhone (from iPhone13 pro to iPhone 17 pro)
Since I have changed of iPhone (yesterday) to run my draft application, I systematically, and instantaneously get a message "The application failed to launch.", i.e. the application successfully built and was downloaded to the new iPhone (Iphone 17 pro - iOS 26.4).

Xcode Source Control pull/push hangs indefinitely, terminal Git works normally After Tahoe 26.3 (25D125) Update
Device Details: MBP M2 Pro AND MBP M3 Pro macOS 26.3 (25D125) Xcode Version 26.3, 26.2, 26.1 (I reinstalled all 3 of these after the macOS update) BUG: Xcode hangs indefinitely when performing Source Control operations (Pull or Push) on a Git repository that uses SSH authentication. The same repository works correctly when performing the equivalent Git operations from the Terminal using the Git CLI. The issue appears to be specific to Xcode’s internal Source Control integration. When the operation is triggered from Xcode, the UI shows a spinning progress indicator and never completes. Terminal Git commands (git fetch, git pull, git push) complete normally using the same SSH key and repository. A hang sample taken during the issue shows the Xcode main thread blocked in Source Control authentication and fingerprint handling code paths, including: IDESourceControlUIHandler IDESourceControlFingerprintManager handleAuthenticationFailure showFingerprintAlertOnWindow This suggests Xcode may be waiting on a Source Control authentication or host fingerprint UI flow that never resolves. SSH connectivity itself is functioning correctly: ssh -T git@bitbucket.org and ssh -T git@github.com both authenticate successfully. git ls-remote, git fetch, git pull, and git push all work correctly from Terminal. No Source Control accounts are configured in Xcode Preferences. Authentication relies entirely on SSH keys. Steps to Reproduce Configure an SSH key for Git access (e.g., Bitbucket or GitHub) and confirm it works via Terminal. Clone or open an existing Git repository that uses SSH (git@host:repo.git). Open the project/workspace in Xcode. In Xcode, attempt a Source Control operation such as: Source Control → Pull Source Control → Push Observe that Xcode displays a spinning progress indicator and does not complete the operation.

Resolving a "Simulator runtime is not available" error
Some Macs recently received a macOS system update which disabled the simulator runtimes used by Xcode 15, including the simulators for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. If your Mac received this update, you will receive the following error message and will be unable to use the simulator: The com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime is not available. Domain: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code: 401 Failure Reason: runtime profile not found using "System" match policy Recovery Suggestion: Download the com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime from the Xcode To resume using the simulator, please reboot your Mac. After rebooting, check Xcode Preferences → Platforms to ensure that the simulator runtime you would like to use is still installed. If it is missing, use the Get button to download it again. The Xcode 15.3 Release Notes are also updated with this information.

App crashes on launch for iOS 12 users after App Store release (Xcode 16.4) — BKSProcessErrorDomain bootstrap-failed
Hi everyone, I'm building an app in Xcode 16.4 with a minimum deployment target of iOS 12. The last time I built with this configuration was November 2025 — that build worked perfectly fine. I'm aware that builds from Xcode 16.4 will no longer be accepted by Apple after April 28, 2026, so I decided to push one final update before that deadline. Here's what I did: Built the app with no changes to build settings Uploaded to TestFlight Tested on iOS 12, iOS 26, and a few other versions — everything looked good Passed App Review Published to the App Store Now users on iOS 12 are reporting that the app crashes immediately on launch. Users on iOS 13-26 are unaffected. We've effectively lost a significant portion of our users overnight. We'd really like to restore functionality for them before April 28 — after that we plan to raise the minimum deployment target anyway. There are no crash logs available, as the app appears to never reach application code at all. Below are the relevant logs from Console.app: default 16:33:49.012231+0400 SpringBoard Bootstrapping MY_BUNDLE_ID with intent foreground-interactive error 16:33:49.021533+0400 SpringBoard [MY_BUNDLE_ID] Bootstrap failed with error: <NSError: 0x280f59aa0; domain: BKSProcessErrorDomain; code: 1 (bootstrap-failed); reason: "Failed to start job"> error 16:33:49.021748+0400 SpringBoard Bootstrapping failed for <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> with error: Error Domain=BKSProcessErrorDomain Code=1 "Unable to bootstrap process with bundleID MY_BUNDLE_ID" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Unable to bootstrap process with bundleID MY_BUNDLE_ID, BKSProcessExitReason=0, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Failed to start job, NSUnderlyingError=0x280f58780 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=3 "No such process" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=The process failed to exec, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Consult /var/log/com.apple.xpc.launchd/launchd.log for more information, NSLocalizedDescription=Unable to get valid task name port right for pid 241}}, BSErrorCodeDescription=bootstrap-failed} default 16:33:49.021934+0400 SpringBoard Adding: <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> default 16:33:49.022111+0400 SpringBoard <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> exited. default 16:33:49.023325+0400 SpringBoard Removing: <FBApplicationProcess: 0x101cb4070; MY_BUNDLE_ID; pid: -1> default 16:33:49.039576+0400 assertiond Submitting new job for "MY_BUNDLE_ID" on behalf of <BKProcess: 0x100d119f0; SpringBoard; com.apple.springboard; pid: 48; agency: SystemShell; visibility: foreground; task: running> default 16:33:49.039982+0400 assertiond Submitted job with label: UIKitApplication:MY_BUNDLE_ID[0xed03][58] error 16:33:49.040128+0400 assertiond Unable to obtain a task name port right for pid 241: (os/kern) failure (0x5) error 16:33:49.040286+0400 assertiond Failed to start job with error <NSError: 0x100c3f180; domain: NSPOSIXErrorDomain; code: 3; reason: "The process failed to exec"> { description = "Unable to get valid task name port right for pid 241"; failureReason = "The process failed to exec"; recoverySuggestion = "Consult /var/log/com.apple.xpc.launchd/launchd.log for more information"; Has anyone encountered this recently? Any help would be greatly appreciated. P.S. I tried rebuilding from scratch without any code changes and uploading a fresh build to TestFlight — but now it won't even launch from TestFlight on iOS 12.

App targeting iOS 12 crashes on launch when installed via TestFlight but works via Ad Hoc and Xcode direct install
My app targets iOS 12.0 and crashes immediately on launch when installed via TestFlight on an iPad running iOS 12.x. The same archive works perfectly when installed via Ad Hoc distribution or directly from Xcode. This is a regression — the exact same source code, compiled with the same Xcode version, was successfully distributed via TestFlight and the App Store last month (March 2026) without issues. No changes were made to the code, Xcode version, or signing configuration. Steps to reproduce: Archive an app with IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET = 12.0 using Xcode 16.4 Upload to App Store Connect Install via TestFlight on an iPad running iOS 12.x App crashes immediately on launch (pre-main, no crash log generated) Expected: App launches normally (as it did last month) Actual: App is killed immediately, process exits with reason: (none) Console.app shows the process never transitions from xpcproxy to the actual binary — it dies within ~260ms of bootstrap, indicating a dyld or app thinning issue. Environment: Xcode: 16.4 Deployment target: iOS 12.0 ENABLE_BITCODE: NO Device: iOS 12.x Ad Hoc install: WORKS Xcode direct install: WORKS TestFlight install: CRASHES App Store install: CRASHES Anyone else seeing this?

Can’t paste into Simulator after updating to Xcode 26.4
After updating to Xcode 26.4 (public release), I’m no longer able to paste from the Mac clipboard into the Simulator. Automatically Sync Pasteboard is on, and I have content on the clipboard, but paste doesn’t work—Cmd+V does nothing, and there’s no Paste option in the context menu. Is anyone else seeing this?

Apple watch Xcode pairing & connection issues
I’m blocked debugging a watchOS app on a physical Apple Watch. The iPhone connects to Xcode normally (wired), but the Watch either fails to connect with a tunnel timeout or disappears entirely from Xcode after I unpaired it inside Devices & Simulators. Environment Mac: macOS 26.x (Apple Silicon Mac) Xcode: 26.2 iPhone: iOS 26.1 Apple Watch Ultra: watchOS 26.2 (build 23S303) Connection: iPhone connected to Mac via USB (trusted). Watch paired to iPhone and working normally in the Watch app. Issue A (when Watch is visible in Xcode) In Xcode → Window → Devices and Simulators, the Watch shows up but is not usable and fails to connect. Error: “Previous preparation error: A connection to this device could not be established.” “Timed out while attempting to establish tunnel using negotiated network parameters.” In some attempts the Watch shows “Capacity: Unknown” / limited details, and then fails during preparation. Issue B (after unpairing Watch in Xcode only) I unpaired/removed the Watch in Xcode (Devices & Simulators). I did not unpair the Watch from the iPhone. Now: iPhone appears in Xcode and works normally for builds. Watch is still paired to the iPhone and works normally. Watch no longer appears anywhere in Xcode Devices & Simulators (no paired watch section, no watch run destination). What I’ve tried Reboots of Mac, iPhone, Watch (multiple times) Watch unlocked, awake; iPhone unlocked and close to Watch Verified Watch is paired and connected in iPhone Watch app Developer Mode enabled on iPhone and Watch Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ON (Mac/iPhone/Watch), tried toggling both Tried on home Wi-Fi and also with iPhone hotspot (same result) Resetting trust prompts / reconnecting iPhone via USB, re-trusting Mac Apple Watch: “Clear Trusted Computers” Xcode: removing/re-adding devices; clearing derived data; restarting Xcode Watch Developer networking test: Responsiveness = Medium (430 RPM) Questions 1. Is this a known issue/regression with Xcode 26.2 + watchOS 26.2 tunneling (CoreDevice / devicectl)? 2. Is there an Apple-supported way to force Xcode to re-discover a paired Watch after it was removed from Xcode Devices & Simulators (without unpairing the Watch from the iPhone)? 3. Any recommended logs or diagnostic steps I should collect (Console logs, sysdiagnose, specific Xcode/CoreDevice logs) to include in a Feedback report? If helpful, I can provide the full error text from Xcode’s Devices window and any logs you recommend. Thank you in advance,

‌Xcode26-built apps cannot run on iPhone 6 or earlier devices‌
‌Using Xcode 26, the built package encounters device compatibility issues — while it installs successfully on supported iPhone devices, but it crashes immediately upon launch and cannot run normally.‌‌In previous versions of Xcode, the same "minimum deployment" setting in the project did not cause such compatibility issues.‌ The app built with Xcode 26 shows the following behavior when installed and tested on various devices:‌ iPhone6p iOS12.5.8 fails to run 2.iPhone6 iOS11 fails to run 3.Iphone6 iOS12.5.7 fails to run 4.iPhone7 iOS12.1.3 ok 5.iPhoneX iOS 12.2 ok 6.iphone6s plus iOS10.3.1 ok 7.iphoneXS. iOS 12.1.4 ok 8.iPhone11 iOS 13.6.1 ok 9.iPhone7. iOS 13.7 ok We have tested and found that an iPhone 6s Plus running iOS 10.3.1 can normally run the app. We would like to know whether apps built with Xcode 26 are inherently incompatible with iPhone 6 and older devices. Has Xcode 26’s underlying build environment removed full support for the A8 chip, resulting in binary files containing instructions or memory models that older devices cannot parse? ‌Looking forward to your reply‌.

Xcode 26.4 rc
Since 26.4 beta 3 I've been having errors after a few hours of using Claude Agent. I get an error stating that I am not authed. If I go into Xcode settings, it still shows I am signed into Claude Agent. I have click sign out and then go through the whole auth process again to start using the agent again. This is on two separate computers. Is there anything I can do to stop this behaviour and stay logged in for longer? It worked fine in 26.3.

IPhone fails to connect with Xcode in presence of multiple WebContentFilters
I am facing an intermittent problem where iPhones are failing to pair/connect with Xcode under Xcode -> Windows -> Devices and Simulators. This happens when more than one web content filters are present, for instance, I have my web content filter (FilterSockets true, FilterGrade Firewall) and there is also Sentinel One web content filter with same configuration. Note: We are not blocking any flow from remoted / remotepairingd / core device service / MDRemoteServiceSupport etc processes. But they do get paused and resumed at times for our internal traffic verification logic. So, we are trying to understand what impact our content filter may be having on this iPhone Pairing?? If we stop either one of the filters the problem goes away. I have tracked the network traffic to the phone, and it seems to be using a ethernet interface (en5/en10) over the USB-C cable. I can see endpoints like this: localEndpoint = fe80::7:afff:fea1:edb8%en5.54442 remoteEndpoint = fe80::7:afff:fea1:ed47%en5.49813 I also see remoted process has the below ports open : sudo lsof -nP -iTCP -iUDP | grep remoted remoted 376 root 4u IPv6 0xce4a89bddba37bce 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57395->[fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:ed47]:58783 (ESTABLISHED) remoted 376 root 6u IPv6 0xf20811f6922613c7 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57396 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 7u IPv6 0x2c393a52251fcc56 0t0 TCP [fe80:15::7:afff:fea1:edb8]:57397 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 8u IPv6 0xcb9c311b0ec1d6a0 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57398 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 9u IPv6 0xc582859e0623fe4e 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57399 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 10u IPv6 0x2f7d9cee24a44c5b 0t0 TCP [fd6e:8a96:a57d::2]:57400->[fd6e:8a96:a57d::1]:60448 (ESTABLISHED) remoted 376 root 11u IPv6 0xbdb7003643659de 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57419 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 12u IPv6 0x569a5b649ff8f957 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57420 (LISTEN) remoted 376 root 13u IPv6 0xa034657978a7da29 0t0 TCP [fd07:2e7e:2a83::2]:57421->[fd07:2e7e:2a83::1]:61729 (ESTABLISHED) But due to the dynamic nature of port and IPs used we are not able to decide on an effective early bypass NEFilterRule. We don't want to use a very broad bypass criteria like all link local IPs etc. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

React Native IAP: getProducts returns empty array in TestFlight despite complete configuration
Hi everyone, I’m currently developing an iOS app using React Native and implementing consumable In-App Purchases (IAP). I'm facing an issue where getProducts returns an empty array without any error messages when testing on a TestFlight build. I have already completed the following setup: Agreements, Tax, and Banking: All forms are signed and the status is "Active" in App Store Connect. Product Configuration: The Consumable product is created in App Store Connect with the status "Ready to Submit". App Store Connect Integration: The product is correctly linked under the "In-App Purchases and Subscriptions" section of the App version. Xcode Capability: The "In-App Purchase" capability has been added to the project. Implementation: The Product ID in my React Native code (using react-native-iap) matches the ID in App Store Connect exactly. Despite these steps, the product list remains empty. Are there any hidden requirements or specific configurations for TestFlight that I might have missed? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Xcode 26.4 cannot run app-hosted unit tests on physical iOS 16 devices ("Logic Testing Unavailable")
Summary: After upgrading to Xcode 26.4, app-hosted XCTest execution on physical devices running iOS 16 fails at test-planning time with "Logic Testing Unavailable." The same project and same device work under Xcode 26.2. The failure reproduces with a standalone minimal Xcode project, which suggests this is an Xcode regression rather than a project-configuration issue. Environment: Xcode: 26.4 (17E192) macOS: Tahoe 26.4 Failing device: iPhone 11 (iPhone12,1), iOS 16.0.3 Working comparisons: Xcode 26.2 + same iPhone 11 (iOS 16.0.3): works Xcode 26.4 + iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) on iOS 26.3: works Regression: Yes. Works on Xcode 26.2. Fails on Xcode 26.4. Same project, same signing setup, same physical iOS 16 device. Minimal reproduction: A minimal sample project with: one iOS app target one app-hosted unit-test target one UI-test target (for comparison; not required to reproduce) Steps for the unit-test repro on a physical device running iOS 16: Build for testing: xcodebuild -project TestProject.xcodeproj \ -scheme TestProject-UnitTests \ -sdk iphoneos \ -destination 'platform=iOS,id=<DEVICE_UDID>' \ -derivedDataPath DerivedData-Device-Unit \ -resultBundlePath Results-Device-Unit-Build.xcresult \ DEVELOPMENT_TEAM=<TEAM_ID> \ CODE_SIGN_STYLE=Automatic \ build-for-testing Run tests without building: xcodebuild -project TestProject.xcodeproj \ -scheme TestProject-UnitTests \ -sdk iphoneos \ -destination 'platform=iOS,id=<DEVICE_UDID>' \ -derivedDataPath DerivedData-Device-Unit \ -resultBundlePath Results-Device-Unit-Test.xcresult \ DEVELOPMENT_TEAM=<TEAM_ID> \ CODE_SIGN_STYLE=Automatic \ test-without-building Note: xcodebuild test (combined build and test) also fails with the same error. Expected result: The hosted unit tests run successfully on the connected physical device, as they do under Xcode 26.2. Actual result: Step 1 (build-for-testing) succeeds. Step 2 (test-without-building) fails immediately (within ~1 second) with: 2026-03-26 11:23:28.683 xcodebuild[51930:731004] DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. 2026-03-26 11:23:28.725 xcodebuild[51930:730966] [MT] DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. 2026-03-26 11:23:29.239 xcodebuild[51930:730966] Writing error result bundle to /var/folders/jl/knmkq18x4cg_3w087zgpfldm0000gn/T/ResultBundle_2026-26-03_11-23-0029.xcresult xcodebuild: error: Failed to build project TestProject with scheme TestProject-UnitTests.: Cannot test target “redacted” on “redacted”: Logic Testing Unavailable Logic Testing on iOS devices is not supported. You can run logic tests on the Simulator. Why this looks like an Xcode regression: The same project and same physical iOS 16.0.3 device work under Xcode 26.2. Under Xcode 26.4, build-for-testing still succeeds, so signing, provisioning, and bundle construction appear valid. The failure happens only when Xcode plans or launches the on-device test run. Before the failure, Xcode 26.4 logs: DVTDeviceOperation: Encountered a build number "" that is incompatible with DVTBuildVersion. A newer physical device running iOS 26.3 works under Xcode 26.4 without this warning. The issue also reproduces with a minimal standalone Xcode project, which makes a project-specific configuration problem unlikely. The Xcode-generated .xctestrun files for the passing Xcode 26.2 case and failing Xcode 26.4 case are structurally equivalent, making an .xctestrun format difference unlikely to be the cause.

Xcode 26.4: IBOutlets/IBActions gutter circles missing — cannot connect storyboard to code (works in 26.3)
I’m seeing a regression in Xcode 26.4 where Interface Builder will not allow connecting IBOutlets or IBActions. Symptoms: The usual gutter circle/dot does not appear next to IBOutlet / IBAction in the code editor Because of this, I cannot: drag from storyboard → code drag from code → storyboard The class is valid and already connected to the storyboard (existing outlets work) Assistant Editor opens the correct view controller file Important: The exact same project, unchanged, works perfectly in Xcode 26.3. I can create and connect outlets/actions normally there. ⸻ Environment Xcode: 26.4 macOS: 26.4 Mac Mini M4 Pro 64G Ram Project: Objective-C UIKit app using Storyboards This is a long-running, ObjC, project (not newly created) ⸻ What I’ve already tried To rule out the usual suspects: Verified View Controller Custom Class is correctly set in Identity Inspector Verified files are in the correct Target Membership Verified outlets are declared correctly in the .h file: @property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *exampleLabel; Opened correct file manually (not relying on Automatic Assistant) Tried both: storyboard → code drag code → storyboard drag Tried using Connections Inspector Clean Build Folder Deleted entire DerivedData Restarted Xcode Updated macOS to 26.4 Ran: sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch Confirmed required platform components installed Reopened project fresh ⸻ Observations In Xcode 26.4 the outlet “connection circles” are completely missing In Xcode 26.3 they appear immediately for the same code Existing connections still function at runtime — this is purely an Interface Builder issue ⸻ Question The gutter circles appearance has always been flaky in Xcode over the 13+ years I've been using it but now with 26.4 they have completely disappeared. Has anyone else seen this in Xcode 26.4, or found a workaround? At this point it looks like a regression in Interface Builder, but I haven’t found any mention of it yet.

Localization in Swift macOS console Apps.
Is it possible to build localization into console apps, developed in SwiftUI in Xcode26. I have created a catalog, (.xcstrings file) with an English and fr-CA string. I have tried to display the French text without success. I am using the console app to test a package which also has English/French text. English text works fine in both package and the console main, but I cannot generate the French. From what I can discover so far it's not possible without bundling it as a .app, (console app). Looking for anyone who has crossed this bridge.

Different app behavior when running on device from Xcode
I have an app I am working on that makes a REST call, updates the UI with the info, and sends a notification. When I run Build and Run my app from Xcode using my iPhone as the destination, it works exactly as I want it to - my REST calls and notifications continue to work when the app is in the background. However, when I run my app that has been installed on my iPhone from the Xcode build/run directly (without Xcode in the picture), it does NOT behave correctly and only works when my app is in the foreground. What am I missing?

My app fails to launch since I have changed of iPhone (from iPhone13 pro to iPhone 17 pro)
Since I have changed of iPhone (yesterday) to run my draft application, I systematically, and instantaneously get a message "The application failed to launch.", i.e. the application successfully built and was downloaded to the new iPhone (Iphone 17 pro - iOS 26.4).

Xcode_26 not compiling Metal project
Hello Xcode 26.0.1 (17A400) Missing some Metal components When building a program using Metal, it induces an unexpected error : “error: error: cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain Command CompileMetalFile failed with a nonzero exit code” Which terminates the build The fix given “xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain” using sudo does not work Did someone find a work around or could resolve the issue? Many thanks Jean MacBook Air M4; macOS 26.0.1; Xcode 26.0.1

Xcode Source Control pull/push hangs indefinitely, terminal Git works normally After Tahoe 26.3 (25D125) Update
Device Details: MBP M2 Pro AND MBP M3 Pro macOS 26.3 (25D125) Xcode Version 26.3, 26.2, 26.1 (I reinstalled all 3 of these after the macOS update) BUG: Xcode hangs indefinitely when performing Source Control operations (Pull or Push) on a Git repository that uses SSH authentication. The same repository works correctly when performing the equivalent Git operations from the Terminal using the Git CLI. The issue appears to be specific to Xcode’s internal Source Control integration. When the operation is triggered from Xcode, the UI shows a spinning progress indicator and never completes. Terminal Git commands (git fetch, git pull, git push) complete normally using the same SSH key and repository. A hang sample taken during the issue shows the Xcode main thread blocked in Source Control authentication and fingerprint handling code paths, including: IDESourceControlUIHandler IDESourceControlFingerprintManager handleAuthenticationFailure showFingerprintAlertOnWindow This suggests Xcode may be waiting on a Source Control authentication or host fingerprint UI flow that never resolves. SSH connectivity itself is functioning correctly: ssh -T git@bitbucket.org and ssh -T git@github.com both authenticate successfully. git ls-remote, git fetch, git pull, and git push all work correctly from Terminal. No Source Control accounts are configured in Xcode Preferences. Authentication relies entirely on SSH keys. Steps to Reproduce Configure an SSH key for Git access (e.g., Bitbucket or GitHub) and confirm it works via Terminal. Clone or open an existing Git repository that uses SSH (git@host:repo.git). Open the project/workspace in Xcode. In Xcode, attempt a Source Control operation such as: Source Control → Pull Source Control → Push Observe that Xcode displays a spinning progress indicator and does not complete the operation.
