Frequently Asked Questions about developing-ios-apps

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code signing and notarization for macOS apps using notarytool?▼

Automated macOS app notarization with notarytool requires a Developer ID certificate and app-specific password to submit builds, validate signatures, and staple tickets for distribution.

Why does code signing fail with keychain mismatches during XcodeGen iOS builds?▼

Code signing fails from keychain mismatches when provisioning profiles lack access or certificates are duplicated, requiring keychain cleanup and profile regeneration to resolve build errors.

How do I manage GitHub Actions secrets for iOS CI/CD signing and deployment?▼

Manage iOS CI/CD GitHub Actions secrets by storing base64-encoded provisioning profiles and certificates as repository secrets, injecting them into workflows to automate build signing and deployment.

Can I use Swift Package Manager with XcodeGen to build and deploy SwiftUI apps?▼

Yes, XcodeGen generates projects from YAML manifests referencing Swift Package Manager dependencies, enabling automated SwiftUI app builds, signing, and deployment across iOS and macOS platforms.

How to debug AVFoundation camera issues across different iOS and macOS versions?▼

Debug AVFoundation camera issues by checking iOS/macOS version compatibility, verifying permission entitlements, and inspecting capture session configurations to resolve runtime initialization errors.

What's the best way to set up an automated iOS and macOS build pipeline?▼

Set up automated iOS and macOS build pipelines using XcodeGen for project generation, Swift Package Manager for dependencies, and CI/CD integration to streamline signing, notarizing, and deploying.
