Reply to Are WatchOS storyboards forbidden now ?
i plan to keep using watchkit for my watchos app, until they force min release of 7 (maybe in a few years, apple really hasnt moved the min target of watchos that much) then i will probably just drop support. No sense of trying to rewrite everything that doesnt get used to justify it anyways. Kinda stinks, but apple calls the shots. I noticed even before Beta 3, if you created a new watchkit app, there was no option for storyboard, only swiftui, so not too surprising here, now they have a deprecation warning to kinda go hand in hand with that. so to your points my opinion: Your app will continue to work just fine, even if you have a watchos target greater than 7.0. I dont see apple simply just removing watchkit support for watchos anytime soon, possibly never. Just new apps will have to be done in swiftui. thats a good question, probably their desire to promote swiftui as much as possible I dont believe so, i think deprecation is a strong word here, but going forward they want new apps (and maybe in some fantasy dreamland) existing apps to use swiftui.

Reply to Xcode 14 watchOS Error
This worked to get it to build, i needed to hand add an extension delegate and the corresponding main / infoplist entries. but now when trying to run on a iphone simulator it says this. Feel as if im missing something else. Please try again later. Found WatchKit 2.0 app at /Users/x/Library/xxxxxxDeveloper/CoreSimulator/Devices/E18868EE-130C-4159-AAF2-95319072DD5E/data/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.JH6Xuf/extracted/Payload/TestingApp.app/Watch/TesterExt.app but it does not have a WKWatchKitApp or WKApplication key set to true in its Info.plist

Reply to iOS15 Status bar style not fixed
i notice this on many apps on my ipad (on ios15) apps that i know should have a Light Status bar color are sometimes dark, but if you leave and come back its "correct" i have a feeling this is more of a system bug, than a coding one. As its happening on many apps I would report it.
