I agree with many. For those of us who have great working apps that have a look and feel perfectly designed for the last 17 years+. For Apple designers to suddenly determine their 'new' an d probably inexperienced designer change is a 'value add' are grossly mistaken. Give the developers who have designed great apps for decades some respect and don't break the look and feel and/or generate hours or weeks of 'redesign' to fit some new employees 'vision'.

I have have a Norton VPN..not the problem! Unpair/repair..does NOT solve the problem! Initial Fix: Installing Xcode 16.2 Beta Solved the problem with my iPhone 11Max Also solved the problem with installing on iPad 12.9 (6 generation) Now communication/debugging etc is working and not stalled for 'hours'

I had the same problem after editing the Schema. I inadvertently added a blank environment variable. Deleting the blank entry in the schema fixed my perplexing problem. A real head scratcher..

I am seeing the problem with the simulator..but not when running on a real iPad.. Simulator Version 14.0 (986.3) SimulatorKit 624 CoreSimulator 857.7

Same problem now occurring on my MacBook Pro m1...anyone have a 'real' solution. So far everything mentioned always ends up with the same stuck result. Spinning blue installing wheel now going for over an hour...unacceptable Apple

Let me join the chorus..I am now having the same problem. After months of everything seeming to work and synch, now the watch never gets 'prepped for development', even though nothing has changed for the watch app portion. Just a useless message box, that provides no update information or status. Apple get on it..it is destroying the development process.

Having the same problem with Xcode 13.3, M1 MacBookPro..etc. all latest updates on MacBook Pro, iWatch, Xcode etc.
