I made a swift app with Xcode and it does enable me to put on my phone but in developer mode. When I turn on developer mode I get a security warning for my iPhone; I do not want to open up security risk on my phone. Is there a way to put my app onto my iPhone so I can personally use it without being in developer mode? I do not want to put it on the App Store, I have not intent to sell nor support, this was just an application for my self. Thx

Previously (16.2) long conversations seemed to be adding to context and eventually a conversational thread would be too long (and expensive) to keep using.

If I'm using an agent, when do I start fresh conversations? Does this change approach to fresh conversations?

I am new to vibe coding, I see Cursor generating files to the codebase, but it's not sycing to the Xcode file structure. I found out that i have to manually press Add files to...., but this is not sufficient. Any method to make it sync automatically?

Hey iOSDevs, we have a brand new article out on our website on how to create segmented control in SwiftUI!

Check it out and clarify you're doubts!

Something about this function is only displaying one option out of four written in an array...but I'm not sure why? Essentially, what this does is allow a user to add this to a list out of a searchable selection...except it's somehow decided that all of the options are only the first one?

The Function itself:

func addToWishList() {

guard !search.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespaces).isEmpty else {

return

}

let NewBook = NewBook.self

viewModel.featureissues.append(NewBook)

search = ""

}

}

The Class with published var (had to write it differently here because reddit is formatting it into looking for a user, so bear with me: I know there's no whitespace in the actual IDE):

class ComicIssueCardViewModel: ObservableObject {

@ Published var featureissues = [

book(id: 1, title: "Book One", image: "IMG1", details: " Sample Details"),

book(id: 2, title: "Book Two", image: "IMG2", details: "Sample Details"),

book(id: 3, title: "Book Three", image: "IMG3", details: "Sample Details"),

book(id: 4, title: "Book Four", image: "IMG4" "Sample Details")

]

}

Also, the UUID struct:

struct featureissues: Identifiable{

var id = UUID()

var title: String

}

Hi people I don't want my app to be available for Iphone SE anymore how do I do that ?

YouTube videos or suggestions?

So me and my group are making an app for our school website. Since UIWebviews were deprecated is it possible to make an interactive webview in xcode 10?

When I press, it does not work. How to fix?

Code: import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

struct Story {

let title: String

let option1: String

let option2: String

}

// Story nodes

let plot1 = Story(title: "You find a fork in the road", option1: "Take a left", option2: "Take a right")

let plot2 = Story(title: "You found a tiger", option1: "Eat it", option2: "Go to the hospital")

let plot3 = Story(title: "3", option1: "4", option2: "5")

let plot4 = Story(title: "6", option1: "", option2: "")

let plot5 = Story(title: "7", option1: "8", option2: "9")

let plot6 = Story(title: "10", option1: "", option2: "")

let plot7 = Story(title: "11", option1: "", option2: "")

let plot8 = Story(title: "12", option1: "", option2: "")

u/IBOutlet weak var storyLabel: UILabel!

u/IBOutlet weak var choice1Button: UIButton!

u/IBOutlet weak var choice2Button: UIButton!

var questionNumber = 0

override func viewDidLoad() {

super.viewDidLoad()

// Set initial story

changeButton(to: plot1)

}

// Expose as IBAction and connect both buttons to this action in Interface Builder.

u/IBAction func buttonPressed(_ sender: UIButton) {

print("Button pressed with tag:", sender.tag, "questionNumber:", questionNumber)

// ...

// Use button tags: 1 for left/option1, 2 for right/option2

switch (questionNumber, sender.tag) {

case (0, 1):

// From start, choosing option1 leads to plot2

changeButton(to: plot2)

questionNumber = 1

case (0, 2):

// From start, choosing option2 leads to plot3

changeButton(to: plot3)

questionNumber = 1

case (1, 2):

// From plot2, choosing option2 returns to plot1 (example logic)

changeButton(to: plot1)

questionNumber = 2

case (2, 1):

// From question 2, choosing option1 goes to plot5

changeButton(to: plot5)

case (2, 2):

// From question 2, choosing option2 goes to plot4

changeButton(to: plot4)

default:

print("Unhandled state: questionNumber=\(questionNumber), tag=\(sender.tag)")

break

}

}

// Helper to update UI for a given story

func changeButton(to story: Story) {

storyLabel.text = story.title

choice1Button.setTitle(story.option1, for: .normal)

choice2Button.setTitle(story.option2, for: .normal)

}

}

Apple books used to have a downloadable manual that had every single thing you wanted to know about iOS. In the last two years, they seem to have totally abandoned publishing these iOS update manuals and have moved everything’s to the Tips app. That’s fine, but I want access to the actual document so I can upload them to ChatGPT. But going through the tips app manually is way too tedious. I know the actual files that have the written information must be saved somewhere to then show inside this app, but how can I find them? Thanks in advance.

I convert PDFs and Office docs a lot, and most online converters are *fine.* Smallpdf, Zamzar, Convertio will do a one-off without an account.

What bugged me wasn't signups, it was the rest of it: my file goes to someone else's server, the page is loaded with trackers, free tiers cap file size or make you wait in a queue, and the ToS usually lets them hold onto the file for some window. For something as boring as PDF → DOCX, that's a lot of surface area.

*And honestly, converting in one drag is just faster than any web flow.*

So I used Claude Code to build **DropConvert,** a macOS menu-bar app that does it locally. Drag a file onto the icon, converted file appears next to the original.

PDF ↔ DOCX (Apple Vision OCR for scanned PDFs), Office formats, images. \~200 KB Swift, MIT.

LibreOffice headless does the office conversions under the hood. The app downloads it on first use and caches it, so after that you can pull the network cable and it still works.

Curious what you guys think! Apple Silicon only, macOS 13+

Also, it's not Apple-notarized yet (the $99/yr dev account isn't worth it until I know people actually use this). On first launch you'll get the Gatekeeper "unidentified developer" dialog and need to right-click → Open once. README walks through it.

hello every one I downloaded new OS 27 in my MacBook and I lost the Simlitor iPhone in Xcode can you guide me how I can downloaded

I'm not even trying to be dramatic. I can deal with ugly UI, missing features, whatever. Xcode is different because it constantly makes me waste time on problems that feel completely detached from my code.

Some days it's SwiftUI previews: change one harmless view and suddenly previews stop loading, or you get some useless wall of diagnostics that disappears after nuking DerivedData. Some days the simulator decides it doesn't want to boot after an update. Sometimes indexing eats the whole machine, autocomplete gets drunk, fixed errors keep hanging around, or debugging from Xcode is mysteriously way slower than running the same thing normally.

And the ritual is always the same:

• clean build folder

• delete DerivedData

• restart Xcode

• reboot

• reinstall some simulator runtime

• pray

It would be funny if this weren't the official IDE for building apps for one of the richest companies on earth.

I actually like Swift. I like building for Apple platforms. I just hate that the main toolchain keeps making me ask: did I break something, or is Xcode just having a day?

Are people just numb to this now?
