Having the same issue here. It was working and then I reset the simulator.

I've validated that SiriKit has requested the proper permissions, my App Groups are enabled for data sharing. If I try to load widgets, Springboard crashes with this error. Running my app from the simulator using the Widget scheme causes the same crash.

I don't know if I'm on the right track, but avoiding the identifier and displayName properties for my own (which do appear in the generated file) causes my widget to render without an error. Unfortunately the Add Widget screen crashes with the same "No intent" error because it tries to use identifier.

I hope this at least gets us closer to a solution.

Remove the widget you config, and add it back again. It works for me.
