[Using Xcode 12 Beta 5]

I'm building an app with some widgets, and in order to pass data between the app and the widget, we need an App Groups in Xcode.

I've added one, but in Xcode, it's mysteriously... red? I'm sure what it means, and if it will cause me problems.

There are no warnings or errors next to it, or caused by it... it's just red.

Thanks for any insight!

Perhaps you've solved this already, but if you click the refresh icon below the app group identifier list that should clear up the red lettering. This forum won't let me post the link but if you search YouTube for the video from Kilo Loco titled "Creating Your First SwiftUI Widget | iOS 14", he discusses the process of creating App Groups. It was helpful for me.

Hey Dan, you're exactly right. I did that at some point yesterday and it went away. A bit silly.

Thanks for the help!
