Exact same issue on M1 mac. Cordova iOS 6.2.0… Solution.

Running xcode with Rosetta is a workaround. However I did find a solution.

I had already set my xcode targets to Excluded Architecture for “Any iOS Simulator SDK” = arm64

But turns out you also have to add for CordovaLib sub project. Once I added there, the error is gone and simulator works fine from xcode or ionic cordova emulate …

I found a workaround, close xcode, and then open it with Rosetta.
