Description

Xcode offers all the tools you need to craft great apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, and Mac. It enables a unified workflow that spans from the earliest stages of app development to testing, debugging, optimization, and app distribution to testers and users. And with the Swift programming language, Xcode makes developing apps easy and fun. Xcode includes a world-class code editor with an on-device machine learning model trained for Swift and Apple SDKs, a built-in preview tool that shows the UI of your app as you modify code, and a powerful debugger with conditional breakpoints. Xcode also includes companion tools to help you rapidly prototype and test your app. Simulator enables rapid prototyping and testing your app in a simulated environment when a real device isn’t available. Instruments helps you profile and analyze your app, improve performance, and investigate system resource usage. And you can use Reality Composer Pro to create 3D content, train custom machine learning models with Create ML, and identify potential accessibility issues with Accessibility Inspector. To test or run applications on an Apple device, all you need is a free Apple ID. To submit your apps to the App Store you must be a member of the Apple Developer Program. Some features may require Internet access and may not be available for all regions or on all Apple devices.

    This should not be locked behind an Apple ID block. There’s no reason I should have to have an account with apple just to download this software!!! I can set up my Mac without an apple account, so why can’t I download Xcode from developer sources without being signed in??? Secondly; Apple prevented me from creating an apple account on my devices. I tried every way possible multiple times, checked the outage page and everything was working fine. I had to go back to the Apple Store and create an account on their computer to be able to make one. I used the exact same information. And the Apple Store is 55 minute drive from my house! Third; I had to drive to Apple Store to get my Mac the day before I went back to the Apple Store to create my account because I ordered it online when they were on sale. I got a confirmation email from apple with a tracking number and a due date for delivery. I checked my CC statement and saw a charge from apple for the amount of the purchase. 2.5 weeks later and no emails responded to I call apple. They say my bank declined the charge and because I could not re order in time to get sale price, I now must pay full price, and they were never responsible for informing me they canceled my order. This is exactly why I avoid apple like the plague, but I have to get this stuff if I want to make apps for apple devices. CURSE YOU APPLE!!! This has been an extreme waste of time the past 24 hours for me!!! NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN!!!

    If you want to make iOS apps, this is the only way to do it lol. My review doesn’t really matter haha. I hate needing a Mac to make apps but whatever…
  • Pure garbage.

    What a horrendous piece of ****. Not a day goes by where I have to waste my time with this. Clean build folder, reset package cache, clear all issues, force quit to restart. Buggy mess developed by overwhelming incompetence.
  • Pretty Good

    Xcode works as it is advertised: it allows me to write, simulate, and run code on Apple devices. But there is the occasional crash, especially when the code canvas is loading. But overall, this app does its job well and has lots of useful, intuitive features.

    Waiting for IOS 18.1 simulator to download. I just measured 200 mbps download, and yet I've been waiting for a 8 gb file to download for over 2 hours. Please Apple, this is embarrasing. Just let me develop on any other IDE but this one. 2 hrs * 10 engineers * $70/hr is $1,400 btw. That's how much I have to pay today because Apple is too toxic to let me use intelliJ or download simulator files anywhere but with them.
  • Worst tool on the world

    Breaks often, instead of coding you have to resolve stupid bugs that happen with every update

  • Problems installing on physical device…

    Everytime I try to run a build on a physical device, it won’t install. I have to disconnect the device… sometimes reboot, just to be able to run a test. This issue has been annoying me for several years and Apple hasn’t fixed it.
  • Why don't you fix Apple Watch connection problems?
