I'm trying to run my app on my Apple Watch. But Xcode reports that Developer Mode on my iPhone is disabled. However, it is not. I've tried toggling Developer Mode, restarting my devices, restarting Xcode, restarting my computer and unpairing my phone from Xcode and repairing it. Nothing seems to work. It just always reports Developer Mode is disabled. Is there anyway to get Xcode to see that the developer mode is not disabled.

I have an existing watchOS app. It's deployment target is 6.1. I added a new widget extension by going to File -> New -> Target -> Widget Extension. I did NOT check the "Include Configuration Intent". In the "Embed in" drop down I chose the WatchKit Extension (it was the only one available). I did not change any of the generated code, other than to add @available(watchOS 9.0, *) to the structs. I attempted to preview the widget in the "preview canvas" but I got the following error: The app extension "MyProject ComplicationExtension.appex" needs to be embedded in an app in order to use previews I then checked the "MyProject WatchKit Extension" under the Target Membership in the File Inspector. The Preview Canvas then crashed with the following error: Couldn't retrieve XPCService dictionary from service bundle. ---------------------------------------- CrashReportError: MyProject WatchKit Extension crashed MyProject WatchKit Extension crashed.

Any ideas appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, In a new project, when I check the option to include tests, two default UI test files are created: ProjectName_AppUITests ProjectName_AppUITestsLaunchTests What is the AppUITestsLaunchTests for? What type of tests belong in the AppUITests and what tests belong in the AppUITestsLaunchTests? Thanks!

Hi, I am having trouble using watchOS6.3 with XCode 12.5. I have three questions: I would like to test my app on a Series 2 watch that has watchOS6.3 installed. I have the watch setup as a device in XCode. I have been able to use it in the past. However, now when I try to launch the app from XCode I get an "Unable to install" error. I don't know why I'm getting an error about wireless sync, as I have connect the phone to my computer via cable. Any help would be appreciated. Unable to install "My App" Domain: com.apple.dt.MobileDeviceErrorDomain Code: -402653057- Device doesn’t support wireless sync.

I want to use the simulator to test my app. However, when I go to Preferences - Components, the latest watchOS6 version I see is watchOS6.2.1. Is there a way to get watchOS6.3 for the simulator? 3. If I use the watchOS6.2.1 simulator I get the errors below. I've resolved these by going into "Edit Scheme" - Options and unchecking 'Enable backtrace recording' and "Edit Scheme" - Diagnostics and unchecking "Main Thread Checker". Is anyone else having this problem? dyld: could not load inserted library '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/libBacktraceRecording.dylib' because no suitable image found.

Hi, Do I need to check the "Preserve Vector Data" option on an image set when providing a PDF image for a standalone watchOS app? The Autoscaling PDF Images - https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/watchos/visual/image-optimization/#autoscaling-pdf-images does not discuss it. lt sounds like it scales it automatically. Is the preserve vector data only for iOS and not watchOS? What I've done so far in the attributes inspector: checked 'Apple Watch' option under the Devices section (it's the only one checked) set scales to 'Single Scale' set auto scaling to 'Automatic' under the 'Apple Watch' section. Are there any other settings I need to set? Thank you

Hi, I upated to XCode 12 today. When I open my project, I see a warning message to 'Validate Project Settings' -> 'Update to recommended settings'. I click the 'Perform Changes' button and XCode freezes. I let it sit for 20 minutes and it hasn't come back. Has anyone else experienced this? Were you able to resolve it? The project is a standalone Apple Watch App. Thank you.
