We are preparing builds using Xcode 16.0 given we have a large set of users on iOS 12. Now we have doubts wether we will run into issues if we ship using it (even if it compiles, archives and uploads successfully) given the table columns and content has changed since the last time we checked this table: https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/. 1- Is the Deployment Targets range for Xcode 16 value correct for iOS? (On the 24th of February it had iOS 12-18, now it has iOS 15-18) 2- Are we OK to ship for iOS 12 using xcode 16.3? Thanks, Joao Garcia

I'm getting following message when launching #Playgrounds canvas with Xcode 26 beta 4. Here are things I've tried: Reinstall Xcode Reinstall components Removed derived data Run Disk Utility to fix permissions Tried to change Default Actor Isolation, Approachable Concurrency Changed around settings on Schemes: Run: Options and Diagnostics Created brand new project with default settings. Filed FB19003005 in Feedback Assistant. I'm surprised to see that I didn't see any posts on this during my search. So this could be isolated matter just to me.

Issue Report — Xcode 26.0 beta (17A5241e) In Xcode 26.0 beta, double-clicking a file in the project navigator does not open it in a new tab as it normally should. Instead, it opens the file in the current editor window. Interestingly, Option-clicking a file still opens it in a new tab as expected. I’ve confirmed that my Navigation preferences are properly set (see the attached screenshot), so this seems like a possible regression or bug in the current beta version.

Hello Team, I try to delete photo from Photos for that i used this method, [[PHPhotoLibrary sharedPhotoLibrary] performChanges:^{ [PHAssetChangeRequest deleteAssets:@[assetToDelete]]; completionHandler:^(BOOL success, NSError *error) { }]; This method pops up a dialog with Don't Allow or Delete. But some time in some iPhones not respond PHAssetChangeRequest deleteAssets method that's why that completionHandler not called because of that i can't perform any operation of PHPhotoLibrary then after. If I restart my iPhone then it works. Many users of my app complained about this issue. I have an iPhone 11 with iOS 15.3. But some iOS 12,14,16 users also face the same issue. So what exact issue is there? Is it related to iOS or a method? Thanks, Ankur

I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program on February 3, 2026. The payment was completed successfully at the time of enrollment, but my membership status has remained “Pending” since then. So far: No request for additional documents or identity verification No phone call from Apple No follow-up email other than the payment confirmation Apple Developer Support has been contacted, but no response yet I understand that verification can take some time, but the complete lack of communication is concerning, especially since this is blocking active development and release planning. If this is a known backlog or system-wide delay, some transparency from Apple would help. I’d also appreciate hearing whether others who enrolled in early February are seeing the same prolonged “Pending” state. Thanks in advance to anyone who can share recent experiences or escalation paths.

Hi, Problem When playing videos on the Developer app on the Mac, there is no full screen button for the video. So it is not possible to play the video in full screen. Note I am not referring to the app going into full screen, the issue is with there is no option to play the video in full screen. Environment OS: macOS 26.2 (25C56) Developer app: Version 10.8.3 (1083.3.1) Feedback FB21343934 Recording Question Are others also facing this issue? Is there a workaround? Suggestion This seems to be recurring problem that seems get broken with app / OS releases. Please write some UI tests to ensure the full screen button is present. Would really appreciate if this gets fixed.

The Files app in the iOS 18 beta simulator appears to be read-only. I am unable to: create folders copy files into it by dragging them from macOS safe files from safari I have been unsuccessful at finding a way to popular any file or folder in the Files app which is preventing me from testing some scenarios in my app where I import files using the files sheet. The earliest I tried was beta 3 and it still persists in beta 7. The iOS 17 simulator works fine in comparison. My mac is a 2019 macbook pro running Sonoma 14.5. To reproduce: New folder Launch Files app in iOS simulator Tap into "On my phone" From the top menu tap "New Folder" (nothing happens) Download a file Launch safari Find a file like a PDF to download Tap on the down arrow in the toolbar Files opens up with the filename in the textfield at the bottom The "Save" button is grayed out. Copy from macOS Open the Files app in iOS and browse to a local folder drag a file from the macbook onto the simulator the sheet appears with the filename in the text field The "Save" button is grayed out

Hello, I am currently working on personal project based on Matter. I need to create a Basic Video Player as specified in Matter's standard embedding the Media Playback Cluster. I went through the reading of how Apple now supports Matter as a standard : linkText My understanding of the following schematic, is alongside : HomeKit Accessory Protocol (HAP) Framework API Related HAP accessories underneath the homeKit framework. Developpers also find under the Homekit framework : CHIP (Connected Home IP) Framework API Related Matter accessories this time Both types of accessories/devices can be commissioned in the HomeKit ecosystem seemlessly. Each framework has it's documentation : HAP : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/homekit/hmhomemanager CHIP : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/matter I want through the process of installing XCode and the HomeKit Accessory Simulator. In the list of HomeKit Accessories I did not see any Media related devices : The list of currently supported devices is limited as I read here and will be enriched with time : https://support.apple.com/en-us/102135#:~:text=The%20Home%20app%20currently%20supports,%2C%20temperature%2C%20and%20humidity). In the meantime, as I read the matter documentation, I read several references made to the Media Playback : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/matter/mtrclustermediaplayback https://developer.apple.com/documentation/matter/mtrbaseclustermediaplayback https://developer.apple.com/documentation/matter/clusters#Interacting-with-the-Media-Playback-cluster My questions are : Are Matter Basic Video Players, (Media Playback) supported in HomeKit ? Why aren't they listed in HomeKit Accessory Simulator ? How can I add a Basic Video Player in HomeKit and display it's Media Playback controls once I have added the device to HomeKit ? Thank you for your Answer. Regards David

We are seeing repeated occurrences of the following log line in test runs triggered via .xctestrun files on iOS 26: IDERunDestination: Supported platforms for the buildables in the current scheme is empty. This line is printed n number of times after a test fails, significantly increasing test execution duration (2–3 minutes extra in some cases). The issue does not occur when tests are built and run together from Xcode directly — it’s specific to .xctestrun-based executions using xcodebuild test-without-building. Steps to Reproduce: Use Xcode 26 to build a sample XCTest target (we used a simple UI test project). Locate the generated .xctestrun file under DerivedData/.../Build/Products/.... Run tests using: xcodebuild -xctestrun /path/to/sample.xctestrun \ -destination "id=<device_id>" \ test-without-building Observe the logs during test failure. Observed Behavior: The log line IDERunDestination: Supported platforms for the buildables in the current scheme is empty appears multiple times. The test cleanup and teardown phase takes significantly longer (2–3 minutes). Expected Behavior: The log should appear once or not at all. Test cleanup time should remain consistent. Additional Information: Affects only iOS 26 devices and .xctestrun-based runs. Not reproducible on iOS < 26. Xcode 26 and 26.x beta versions tried. Reproducible both locally and on CI systems using real devices. Same .xctestrun file, when used on older OS versions, does not cause delay.

Hello, I'm getting started for my project with Xcode Cloud since I upgraded to the macOS Sequioa Beta and Xcode 16 now refuses to archive builds for TestFlight. Somewhere very late in the build process I get the following error: realitytool requires Metal for this operation and it is not available in this build environment The log says this happens at: Compile Skybox urban.skybox My project uses RealityKit. How can I fix this issue? Thanks!

Does Xcode 26 still support creating pull requests and/or viewing comments from GitHub pull requests associated with the current branch? This used to be possible, but I cannot get it to work with the current version of Xcode (26.0.1). The "Create Pull Request" menu item takes me to github.com directly, instead of presenting a nice UI menu; hence I'm wondering.

Description: I’m noticing that the code coverage metrics in Xcode 26 are not accurate compared to earlier versions. In Xcode 15, the same set of unit tests shows around 38% coverage, but in Xcode 26, even though all the tests are running successfully (for example, the SegmentedUI test cases), the code coverage is displayed as 0%. Has anyone else observed this behavior in Xcode 26? Is there any known issue, workaround, or configuration change required to get the correct coverage report? Environment: Xcode 26 iOS 18 SDK Unit tests running under XCTest Any insights or suggestions would be appreciated.

Is there a way to use CFBundleVersion instead of CI_BUILD_NUMBER from XCode Cloud's workflow on Web ? We would like to have control over the major and minor version numbers of the build from the workflow.

Hi there, How long does it take to make a switch from Apple individual to organization membership? I initiated the process a 2 weeks ago, and I am get to receive another notification from Apple. Keeps showing We’re processing your membership migration from an individual to an organization. And I am unable to submit an application that requires Organization account.

Hi everyone, Starting today, my Xcode Cloud CI workflow can no longer successfully build iOS/macOS/visionOS targets. The Archive step does not report any errors, but the xcodebuild command hangs indefinitely and eventually fails with the following message: The step invocation hit a user timeout. The xcodebuild archive invocation timed out. No activity has been detected on stdout, stderr or the result bundle in 30 minutes. My iOS and macOS targets can still be built, but the build time has increased by 2-3x compared to before. That's interesting. After I removed the visionOS target, the iOS target also failed to build. Additionally, since today, I’ve noticed a significant increase in network-related errors in Xcode Cloud. There have been multiple failures to download dependencies from Homebrew or GitHub. I have confirmed that CI versions which previously built successfully are now failing, while running the same build commands locally works fine. Based on these observations, I suspect there may be an issue with the Xcode Cloud environment itself. Has anyone else encountered similar problems? Any suggestions or updates would be appreciated! Thanks!
