[success] iOS looking great! 👌

Platform(s)

iOS

Current Behavior

The app is stuck on a blank screen for almost 2 minutes if I run it via XCode.

Expected Behavior

The app should load normally via XCode so that XCode debugging utilities can be used. Waiting each deployment for almost 2 minutes is not a choice.

Code Reproduction

1. ionic start

• Use the app creation wizard: No
• Framework: Vue
• Starter template: tabs

1. ionic capacitor add ios
2. ionic capacitor sync ios
3. ionic capacitor open ios
4. Run the app in XCode

On the contrary, if I just run ionic capacitor run ios, the app deploys normally without any issues.

Other Technical Details

npm --version output: 8.4.1

node --version output: v17.5.0

pod --version output (iOS issues only): 1.11.2

Additional Context

macOS: 12.2.1 XCode: 13.2.1 iOS: 15.3.1

Thank you for helping out.

@cappe are you sure your compiled files are generated to dist instead of www ?

To use live reload (ionic cap run ios -l --external) you don’t need to set hostname, you should rather set url property of the server object.

For example:

"server": {
		"url": "http://localhost:8100",
		"cleartext": true,
		"allowNavigation": ["*"]
	}
