Hi,

When trying to a launch a watch os app in the simulator I get this

It looks like it Fire quits too soon because it does finish loading. The simulator was still showing the apple logo at the point it quit.

Cheers,

I can really openly go by what simctl gives me, as thats the official API for this :(. And yes, it’s unreliable, like all tunings Apple in the past 5 years :(.

Does it work ok when you try a second time after the sim has booted up fully? if not, same error or a different one?

As an aside the iOS simulator behaves similar, to shows booting long after simctl tells me its booted, I’ve asked to launch the app, the am getting the status feedback that the app is installng/launching – so I’m not sure that’s the actual problem.

Its a different error.

Simulator is already booted.

Same error really.

Does your entitlements file have get-task-allow, or whatever it’s called, which is needed for debugging a process and getting its pid?

5

you mean info.plist ?

6

in the .entitlements

7

I dont appear to have one.

8

Try adding one and adding the entitlement. its needed for debugging.

9

That didnt seem to make a difference
