.backgroundTask in SwiftUI cannot compile

Error Code: error build: Command CompileSwift failed with a nonzero exit code

My Code:

.backgroundTask(.appRefresh("checkValidity")) {
//   scheduleAppRefresh()
//   checkRecords()
}

AFAIK this is a compile-time only error, and thus it should work on iOS 16.0. However, I wouldn’t take my word for this. You need to test what you ship.

I also have the same problem. May I ask what the solution is? BackgroundTask still cannot run in blank projects

@main
struct TestApp: App {
    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            ContentView()
        }
        .backgroundTask(.appRefresh("task")) {
            await update()
        }
    }
    func update() async{
        print("ran background")
    }
}
