I’d like to migrate my watchOS app (bundled with an iOS app) from a dual-target to a single-target setup. I remember Xcode used to have a menu item (Editor -> Validate Settings) that would prompt you to initiate the migration process. However, I can’t seem to find a ‘Validate Settings’ option in the latest Xcode 16. Has "Validate Settings" been removed in xcode16 ?

Thanks!

It has not been removed. It will not show up when you're looking at a code file or other file in your project.

Click on the project itself in the Project Navigation (so you see the Project and Targets list, General settings, Signing & Capabilities, etc.). Then you should see it in the menu item.
