Hi,
I recently updated to Xcode 16. Since then I successfully built my app and sent an update to the App Store.
But suddenly, after an exception I've experienced while working on my code, the app is crashing on launch, without showing the stack trace, and showing only one warning in the console:
warning: (arm64) /Users/myuser/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/myapp-bglvscamatwthwbfqmtzmbvxeewc/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/myapp.app/MyApp empty dSYM file detected, dSYM was created with an executable with no debug info.
Tried deleting derived data
Erasing all simulator data
Reseting my computer
No change yet. Any idea what am I missing?
Thank you..
I work on an SDK, and one of the ways we distribute it is as a pre-compiled static XCFramework.
As far as I know, it’s the nature of a static framework to not contain symbols since the framework will be embedded in the final app binary, and the symbols should then be generated.
However, when testing the "Validate" function of the Xcode 16 deployment process, our users are receiving a warning that says the framework does not contain symbols.
Is my assumption about static frameworks and symbols incorrect? Could this be a bug in Xcode 16? Should we modify something in our framework to inform Xcode that symbols are not needed?
I have a project I've been working off of for a few years now that makes use of local Swift Packages. In my workspace, I have a "Kit" project that generates a framework using several local Swift Packages as dependencies.
In Xcode 12, the local Swift packages resolve correctly and compiles, but each beta of Xcode 13 gives me the error:
"[ProjectName].xcodeproj Missing package product '[LocalSwiftPackage]'"
Clearing the package cache, derived data, or restarting the application does not resolve the issue. Only Swift Packages that are remotely loaded from a URL are compiled correctly.
Using local packages to separate module code, while still being able to edit in the same project, has been essential to my workflow and would hate to see Xcode 13 release with these breaking changes, and I have not seen this issue listed in the known issues for the Xcode 13 release notes.
Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a workaround?
Out of nowhere I got some red banner on top of my iPhone 13 mini / iOS 17.5. I cannot pin point the root cause of this. What I can say is that it only happens to Simulators of a certain type, e.g. iPhone 12 and 13 mini, but not iPhone 14 for example.
I have installed Xcode 26.1.0 and 26.1.1, out of which 26.1.0 is selected:
$ xcode-select -p
/Applications/Xcode-26.1.0.app/Contents/Developer
And following runtimes:
$ xcrun simctl runtime list
== Disk Images ==
-- iOS --
iOS 17.5 (21F79) - CF933623-A258-44F8-B248-C0F25C0C343B (Ready)
iOS 26.1 (23B80) - D11C3CDC-EE3D-44CC-8B92-9B7D00B54B0B (Ready)
Total Disk Images: 2 (14.6G)
Installing the newer 26.1 23B86 runtime doesn't help either.
Hi all,
Has anyone else run into this issue in Xcode 26?
I’m logged into my paid ChatGPT Plus account, but the Xcode integration doesn’t seem to recognize the subscription. After a short period of use, I get the following error:
“Over daily limit. ChatGPT in Xcode will be unavailable for up to 24 hours. For higher limits, sign in with a paid ChatGPT account.”
Since I’m already signed in with a paid account, this looks like either a bug or a limitation specific to Xcode.
Is this expected behavior, or has anyone found a workaround to make Xcode properly recognize Plus accounts?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I’ve noticed a strange bug in Xcode 16 and Swift. When a preview is rendering and hasn’t finished yet and you run an app to debug, Xcode is launching two instances of the app. Has anyone else noticed this issue? If you let the preview finish rendering before running the app, this doesn’t happen. Very odd.
I've updated my computer to Sequoia 15, Xcode 16 and now no matter what I do, I am unable to work with Swift UI previews.
I get this error each time I try to run the preview:
Failed to launch app in reasonable time
I have done:
Uninstall/Re-install Xcode
Deleted derived data
Deleted the simulator data
Used DevCleaner to remove all data related to Xcode
Searched all websites about this issue. ( Non shown a good solution )
Write this question on here.
If anyone has found a solution, please let me know how you fixed it.
Hi everyone,
I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program on Tuesday evening, November 4th, 2025. The payment has already been charged to my bank account, but my account still shows the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership”.
It’s now been several days, and I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information.
I already contacted Apple Support by email, but I’d like to know if other developers have experienced the same situation and how long it took before their account was activated.
Thanks in advance for your help and feedback!

The Foundation Models Framework stopped working after Xcode failed to download the "Predictive Code Completion Model".
What happened was on macOS Tahoe 26.0:
Downloaded and installed Xcode 26 Beta (17A5241e)
Worked with Foundation Models framework. Everything worked fine. ✅
Opened Xcode 16.4
This triggers the downloading of Predictive Code Completion Model which then fails.
Go back into Xcode 26 Beta, Foundation Models framework no longer works. ❌ Error: "Failed to find asset: com.apple.gm.safety_deny.input.code_intelligence.base.generic - no asset"
What I've tried or checked:
Reinstalling Xcode 26 Beta
Uninstalling both Xcodes and only installing Xcode 26 Beta
Checked available space on drive (over 300 GB free)
Restarted Mac
Restarted Xcode 26
Changed wifi networks
Turned on VPN
Deleted the Library > Developer > Xcode folder and reinstalled Xcode 26

I am experiencing an issue where my Mac's speakers will crackle and pop when running an app on the Simulator or even when previewing SwiftUI with Live Preview.
I am using a 16" MacBook Pro (i9) and I'm running Xcode 12.2 on Big Sur (11.0.1).
Killing coreaudiod temporarily fixes the problem however this is not much of a solution.
Is anyone else having this problem?
When I compile my Xcode project using the xcodebuild command, I observe long incremental build durations. For example, compiling a new, empty project in Xcode only takes around one second. The same project takes 7 seconds to compile using the xcodebuild command. I've noticed that xcodebuild hangs at the "GatherProvisioningInputs" phase.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a new Xcode project (iOS app template)
Build the project in Xcode with timing summary enabled
Build the same project from the command line with the following command:
time xcodebuild -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 15 Pro,OS=latest'
I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to improve the build times when using the xcodebuild command. Thank you in advance for your help!
I have been working for a while now. Never encountered this issue. After accepting the invite from the organization. The organizations does not appear at developer apple account. But can see the organization at app store connect. Yes i have checked the account permissions. I have the admin role and developer role etc is checked everything is correct. This is not just me happening with my colleague as well.
With Xcode 26.0 beta 5 (17A5295f) when I run the following command
xcodebuild -downloadComponent metalToolchain
I get the following error:

I can't install the toolchain from the Xcode GUI also. Does someone know a workaround ?

I just updated my device to iOS 18.3 and despite it connecting to my computer, it doesn't appear in Xcode. Some quick troubleshooting led me to the theory that I need to download the matching simulator runtime for it to appear. But I have searched far and wide and the latest sim runtime is ios 18.2 Am I missing something here?
I failed to download Metal toolchain for Xcode Beta 5.
Downloading in Settings -> Components didn't work so I tried in terminal but didn't work too.

I've been getting intermittent failures on Xcode code compiling my app on multiple platforms because it fails to compile a metal shader.
The Metal Toolchain was not installed and could not compile the Metal source files. Download the Metal Toolchain from Xcode > Settings > Components and try again.
Sometimes if I re-run it, it works fine. Then I'll run it again, and it will fail.
If you tell me to file a feedback, please tell me what information would be useful and actionable, because this is all I have.
Since upgrading my iPhone 13 Pro Max to iOS 26, apps have become nearly impossible to debug. The recent update to iOS 26.1 has made this even worse.
Going from app start to a fully rendered & responding screen takes <1 second on a Debug build when no debugger is attached, but with the debugger attached I get these times (measured manually with a stopwatch):
First render:
<1 second without debugger
5 seconds on USB debugger
30 seconds on wireless debugger
Data loaded from webserver and UI responding:
<1 second without debugger
19 seconds on USB debugger
5 minutes on wireless debugger!
Doing an online speed test reports 55 Mbps for the phone and 60 Mbps on the MacBook, so I doubt it's my WiFi.
Having a debugger attached used to make minimal difference on iOS 18, but the performance has tanked completely since the last major release. What happened?
