[streetsofboston]

Yup.

[Raed Ghazal]

hmm doesn’t seem to work even on a new project from wizard

[Raed Ghazal]

iphone connected to the macbook through cable but doesn’t show here

[Raed Ghazal]

or wait a second probably found why

[Raed Ghazal]

does it run on real device or only simulator?

[Raed Ghazal]

so it works on an empty project but doesn’t work with a project that uses cocoapods

ld: framework 'Pods_PrayerCompanionIOS' not found
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Cocoapods requires the project file to be xcproj not workspace.

[Raed Ghazal]

you sure not the other way around?

[Raed Ghazal]

this is the one xcode is using

[Raed Ghazal]

and there is no xcproj

[Raed Ghazal]

oh wait let me try this

[Raed Ghazal]

for some reason i had iosApp/iosApp.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace selected, went one step back and selected iosApp/iosApp.xcworkspace and it worked 🎉

[Raed Ghazal]

but still this is all on a simulator, can’t run it on my physical device

[Cheick Kante]

How did you make it run on your simulator from android studio. I having the hardest time making it run on a kmm project with no cocopod

[brandonmcansh]

oh yep @Raed Ghazal was thinking backwards.

@Cheick Kante check the screen shot of the configurations I sent above
