Apple Support for Xcode error
Hello, We tried calling Apple support who suggested they cannot help and work thru emails and discussion forums to resolve the technical issue we are facing to post our first App in App Store. I have given admin level credential to my son (minor) allowing him to incorporate his Xcode to App Store with his credentials. Apparently, he keeps getting error he does not have enough credentials to do so and we are unable to proceed further. I acknowledge I am not a developer & Apple support team was unable to help, I wonder if there is specific support channel I need to follow to resolve the issue. His App is going to help is Robotics team in upcoming event and we appreciate if someone can kindly point me to right direction to resolve the matter at earliest.

Flutter build fails on iOS physical device in Android Studio, works in Xcode
Hello, I'm encountering an issue when trying to build and launch a Flutter app on a physical iOS device using Android Studio. Here is the full log: `Launching lib/main.dart on (iPhone Name) in debug mode... Automatically signing iOS for device deployment using specified development team in Xcode project: (Project ID) Running Xcode build... Xcode build done. 19.7s Failed to build iOS app Could not build the precompiled application for the device. Error (Xcode): Target debug_unpack_ios failed: Exception: Failed to codesign (Project Names)/build/ios/Debug-iphoneos/Flutter.framework/Flutter with identity (identity ID). Error launching application on (iPhone Name).` This only happens when using Android Studio. When I build the same project using Xcode, it runs fine on the same device. Background: I accidentally deleted all Apple accounts from Xcode recently. In Keychain Access, I had three identical certificates; I deleted the older two and kept the newest one. I suspect this may be related to provisioning or code signing, but I’m not sure how to resolve it within Android Studio. Any advice or steps to fix this would be greatly appreciated. I created a new test project in Xcode using the iOS > App template, enabled automatic signing in Signing & Capabilities, and selected my team.
 I then tried building and installing the app on a real device, and it worked successfully.
 This confirms that there are no issues with code signing or provisioning on the Apple side.
 Thanks in advance!

On demand module download
I am working on an iOS app and I want to achieve on demand module download inside the app when the user clicks on the module icon which he wants to use. The idea is that we have a super app consisting of multiple modules say four independent apps/features and I want to separate each one so that when the user selects a specific app/feature, it’s downloaded on demand and then opened directly within the same super app resulting in a lower app size initially I want to upload all the code of all modules to app store connect but when the user downloads the app, then only one module's code should be available to the user, the rest of the module's code should be downloaded when the user wants to use that module. I know apple restricts downloading new code but in my case I want to upload all the code to app store for review but just give option to the user to get rest of the code when needed. Any guidance, architectural advice, or example implementations would be highly appreciated.

Running tests on multiple simulators and local mock servers
Hello, I have a question about running tests on multiple simulators. Currently, my company has a WDIO+Appium test suite with XCUITEST driver that runs on a single simulator through a mockttp proxy (we are intercepting and mocking some of the responses from our APIs and pass through the rest). In order to route the traffic we are currently using 'networksetup -setsecurewebproxy '. Everything works as expected. With growing number of tests we'd like to scale number of simulators on a single host to 3-5. We have a working setup but the problem are system-wide proxy settings routing traffic from multiple simulators, which we can't distinguish by UDID or any other means, we know of. We can spin multiple mock servers on the same machine but we are struggling to find the way to route the traffic on a simulator basis. In the end, both options are viable: 1 mock server running for multiple simulators N number of mock servers for N number of simulators Has anyone had the same/similar problem? How to approach this? We are currently running on Sequoia OSX and platform version 18.6. Thanks!

Side loading an app
We have a .ipa file that we need to side load on iPhone via USB connected to a MAC. IPA file will be on MAC. We can't use enterprise license. We have a business use case where we need to side load the app. Any way to do that or can be reach apple support for this? Please help. Note: The iPhones attached will not have the Apple ID logged in. There are companies who are side loading the app for business purpose on the customers phone.

My Apple developer certificates expire soon. Is it necessary to create new certificates?
My Apple developer certificates(4 certificates) expire soon. I'm developing an application for iOS but the application is not yet released in the App Store, only Testflight releases for private testing. Is it necessary to create 4 new certificates or can I edit the current certificates so that they don't expire soon?

Missing Apple-Hosted Background Assets info
After combing the forums and release nodes, here are some extra notes to help other developers using Apple-Hosted Background Assets. I don't promise I got this perfect, but it may help direct you. AssetPack.Status is an OptionSet (not an enum!) - Critical API detail missing from guide It's a bitmask where values can be combined 2⁰ (1) = available to download 2¹ (2) = update available 2² (4) = up to date 2⁶ (64) = downloaded Example: status value 69 = 0b1000101 = available + up to date + downloaded Use .contains() method to check specific flags AssetPack.version property - Undocumented feature Auto-assigned by App Store Connect for Apple-hosted packs Increments with each upload of same asset pack ID No file deduplication across asset packs Same file in two packs = counts twice toward 200GB limit Best practice: create separate pack for shared files Shared namespace path requirements Asset pack ID is NOT part of file path Each file must have unique relative path across ALL app's asset packs Example: Foo/10/239/414.png and Bar/10/239/414.png are distinct and won't collide Additional url(for:) bugs beyond iOS 26.1 fix iOS 26 Beta 5: "item with same name already exists" error Workaround: Request URL for directory, then manually append filename TestFlight-only availability - Major limitation not mentioned! Apple-hosted packs currently ONLY work for internal testers on TestFlight or from App Store. Won't work from Xcode until "later this year" HTTP 400 errors expected for non-TestFlight installs ba-serve port workaround URL override port bug exists on multiple device types Use ba-serve -p 443 instead of custom ports

How do I get HomeKit accessories to show up in the iOS Simulator?
I'm finding developing for HomeKit using the iOS Simulator utterly confounding. All of my home's actual HomeKit accessories show up fine when I run the HomeKit app I'm developing on my actual phone. But none show up when I run my app in the iOS Simulator. Maybe that's how it's supposed to be? I decided to run the HomeKit Accessory Simulator in an attempt to get something to show up in the iOS Simulator, but the accessories I've created there don't show up in the Simulator either. How do I get devices to show up in the iOS Simulator? Thanks.

Capacitor iOS Plugin with MobileVLCKit – Swift Plugin Not Recognized from Angular
Hi everyone, I'm developing a Capacitor plugin to display an RTSP video stream using MobileVLCKit on iOS. The Android side works perfectly, but I can’t get the iOS plugin to work — it seems my Swift file is not being detected or recognized, even though I’ve followed the official steps. What works: I followed the Capacitor Plugin Development Guide. I implemented the Android version of the plugin in Java inside the android/ folder. Everything works perfectly from Angular: the plugin is recognized and calls execute correctly. The issue on iOS: I implemented the iOS part in Swift, using the official MobileVLCKit documentation. I initially placed my RtspVlcPlugin.swift file in the plugin’s iOS folder, as the docs suggest. Then I moved it directly into the main app’s ios/App/App/ folder next to AppDelegate.swift and tried manual registration. The problem: Even though I manually register the plugin with: if let bridge = self.window?.rootViewController as? CAPBridgeViewController { bridge.bridge?.registerPluginInstance(RtspVlcPlugin()) print("✅ Plugin RtspVlcPlugin registered manually.") } It prints the registration message just fine. BUT from Angular, the plugin is not recognized: Capacitor.Plugins.RtspVlcPlugin has no methods, and I get this error: "code":"UNIMPLEMENTED" I also tried declaring @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) and extending CAPPlugin. I’ve verified RtspVlcPlugin.swift is added to the target and compiled. The Swift file doesn’t seem to register or expose any methods to Angular. I even tried adding the code without using a plugin at all — just creating a Swift class and using it via the AppDelegate, but it still doesn't expose any callable methods. My Swift code (RtspVlcPlugin.swift): import Capacitor import MobileVLCKit @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) public class RtspVlcPlugin: CAPPlugin, VLCMediaPlayerDelegate { var mediaPlayer: VLCMediaPlayer? var containerView: UIView? var spinner: UIActivityIndicatorView? @objc func iniciar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { guard let urlStr = call.getString("url"), let x = call.getDouble("x"), let y = call.getDouble("y"), let w = call.getDouble("width"), let h = call.getDouble("height"), let url = URL(string: urlStr) else { call.reject("Missing parameters") return } DispatchQueue.main.async { self.containerView?.removeFromSuperview() let cont = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: x, y: y, width: w, height: h)) cont.backgroundColor = .black cont.layer.cornerRadius = 16 cont.clipsToBounds = true let sp = UIActivityIndicatorView(style: .large) sp.center = CGPoint(x: w/2, y: h/2) sp.color = .white sp.startAnimating() cont.addSubview(sp) self.spinner = sp self.containerView = cont self.bridge?.viewController?.view.addSubview(cont) let player = VLCMediaPlayer() player.delegate = self player.drawable = cont player.media = VLCMedia(url: url) self.mediaPlayer = player player.play() call.resolve() } } @objc func cerrar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { DispatchQueue.main.async { self.mediaPlayer?.stop() self.mediaPlayer = nil self.spinner?.stopAnimating() self.spinner?.removeFromSuperview() self.spinner = nil self.containerView?.removeFromSuperview() self.containerView = nil call.resolve() } } public func mediaPlayerStateChanged(_ aNotification: Notification!) { guard let player = mediaPlayer, player.state == .playing, let sp = spinner else { return } DispatchQueue.main.async { sp.stopAnimating() sp.removeFromSuperview() self.spinner = nil } } } In the Angular project, I’m using the plugin by manually registering it with registerPlugin from @capacitor/core. Specifically, in the service where I need it, I do the following: import { registerPlugin } from '@capacitor/core'; const RtspVlcPlugin: any = registerPlugin('RtspVlcPlugin'); After this, I try to call the methods defined in the iOS plugin, like RtspVlcPlugin.iniciar({ ... }), but I get an UNIMPLEMENTED error, which suggests that the plugin is not exposing its methods properly to the Angular/Capacitor environment. That makes me believe the problem lies in how the Swift file is integrated or registered, rather than how it is used from Angular. I’d appreciate any guidance on how to properly expose a Swift-based Capacitor plugin’s methods so that they are accessible from Angular. Is there any additional registration step or metadata I might be missing on the iOS side?

How to call a Swift file directly from Angular using Capacitor?
Hi everyone, I’m working on a Capacitor app built with Angular, and I’m trying to call a Swift class directly from the root of the iOS project (next to AppDelegate.swift) without using a full Capacitor plugin structure. The Swift file is called RtspVlcPlugin.swift and looks like this: import Capacitor @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) public class RtspVlcPlugin: CAPPlugin { @objc func iniciar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { call.resolve() } } In AppDelegate.swift I register it like this: if let bridge = self.window?.rootViewController as? CAPBridgeViewController { bridge.bridge?.registerPluginInstance(RtspVlcPlugin()) print("✅ RtspVlcPlugin registered.") } The registration message prints correctly in Xcode logs. But from Angular, when I try to call it like this: import { registerPlugin } from '@capacitor/core'; const RtspVlcPlugin: any = registerPlugin('RtspVlcPlugin'); RtspVlcPlugin.iniciar({ ... }); I get this error: {"code":"UNIMPLEMENTED"} So, even though the plugin is registered manually, it’s not exposing any methods to the Angular/Capacitor runtime. My question is: What is the correct way to access a manually created Swift class (in the root of the iOS project) from Angular via Capacitor? Thanks in advance!

But when I try to run the build in my iPhone with TestFlight it crashes instantly :/ This is part of the log: Incident Identifier: B0ED8DEF-A0F0-4D0C-B3BB-3BB9CAB3242A Distributor ID: com.apple.TestFlight Hardware Model: iPhone14,7 Process: colbakapp [83024] Path: /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/44211687-140E-4DF3-A577-CB68CE6414B0/colbakapp.app/colbakapp Identifier: com.colbak.colbakapp Version: 1.0.0 (3) AppStoreTools: 16F3 AppVariant: 1:iPhone14,7:18 Beta: YES Code Type: ARM-64 (Native) Role: Foreground Parent Process: launchd [1] Coalition: com.colbak.colbakapp [18141] Date/Time: 2025-06-22 13:26:29.0142 -0400 Launch Time: 2025-06-22 13:26:28.6532 -0400 OS Version: iPhone OS 18.5 (22F76) Release Type: User Baseband Version: 3.60.02 Report Version: 104 Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000 Termination Reason: SIGNAL 6 Abort trap: 6 Terminating Process: colbakapp [83024] Triggered by Thread: 2 Thread 0: 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001f2e4fce4 mach_msg2_trap + 8 1 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001f2e5339c mach_msg2_internal + 76 (mach_msg.c:201) 2 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001f2e532b8 mach_msg_overwrite + 428 (mach_msg.c:0) 3 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001f2e53100 mach_msg + 24 (mach_msg.c:323) 4 CoreFoundation 0x00000001a1c42900 __CFRunLoopServiceMachPort + 160 (CFRunLoop.c:2637) 5 CoreFoundation 0x00000001a1c411f0 __CFRunLoopRun + 1208 (CFRunLoop.c:3021) 6 CoreFoundation 0x00000001a1c42c3c CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 572 (CFRunLoop.c:3434) 7 GraphicsServices 0x00000001eee21454 GSEventRunModal + 168 (GSEvent.c:2196) 8 UIKitCore 0x00000001a4655274 -[UIApplication _run] + 816 (UIApplication.m:3845) 9 UIKitCore 0x00000001a4620a28 UIApplicationMain + 336 (UIApplication.m:5540) 10 colbakapp 0x00000001046296b0 main + 64 (AppDelegate.swift:6) 11 dyld 0x00000001c8b17f08 start + 6040 (dyldMain.cpp:1450) Thread 1: 0 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000022c350aa4 start_wqthread + 0 Thread 2 Crashed: 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001f2e5a1dc __pthread_kill + 8 1 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000022c357c60 pthread_kill + 268 (pthread.c:1721) 2 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001a9c782d0 abort + 124 (abort.c:122) 3 libc++abi.dylib 0x000000022c2815a0 abort_message + 132 (abort_message.cpp:78) 4 libc++abi.dylib 0x000000022c26fef4 demangling_terminate_handler() + 316 (cxa_default_handlers.cpp:72) 5 libobjc.A.dylib 0x000000019f1e7c08 _objc_terminate() + 172 (objc-exception.mm:499) 6 libc++abi.dylib 0x000000022c2808b4 std::__terminate(void ()()) + 16 (cxa_handlers.cpp:59) 7 libc++abi.dylib 0x000000022c2840d0 __cxa_rethrow + 188 (cxa_exception.cpp:658) 8 libobjc.A.dylib 0x000000019f1e5568 objc_exception_rethrow + 44 (objc-exception.mm:399) 9 colbakapp 0x00000001049f7b68 invocation function for block in facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const, NSInvocation*, NSMutableArray*) + 200 (RCTTurboModule.mm:444) 10 colbakapp 0x00000001049fc538 facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const*, NSInvocation*, NSMutableArray*)::$_1::operator()() const + 36 (RCTTurboModule.mm:463) 11 colbakapp 0x00000001049fc538 decltype(std::declval<facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const*, NSInvocation*, NSMutableArray*)::$_1&>()()) std::__1::__invoke[abi:ne190102... + 36 (invoke.h:149) 12 colbakapp 0x00000001049fc538 void std::__1::__invoke_void_return_wrapper<void, true>::__call[abi:ne190102]<facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const*, NSInvocation*, NSMu... + 36 (invoke.h:224) 13 colbakapp 0x00000001049fc538 std::__1::__function::__alloc_func<facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const*, NSInvocation*, NSMutableArray*)::$_1, std::__1::allocator<face... + 36 (function.h:171) 14 colbakapp 0x00000001049fc538 std::__1::__function::__func<facebook::react::ObjCTurboModule::performVoidMethodInvocation(facebook::jsi::Runtime&, char const*, NSInvocation*, NSMutableArray*)::$_1, std::__1::allocator<facebook::... + 104 (function.h:313) 15 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bbcaac _dispatch_call_block_and_release + 32 (init.c:1575) 16 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bd6584 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 (client_callout.mm:85) 17 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bc52d0 _dispatch_lane_serial_drain + 740 (queue.c:3939) 18 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bc5dac _dispatch_lane_invoke + 388 (queue.c:4030) 19 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bd01dc _dispatch_root_queue_drain_deferred_wlh + 292 (queue.c:7198) 20 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001a9bcfa60 _dispatch_workloop_worker_thread + 540 (queue.c:6792) 21 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000022c350a0c _pthread_wqthread + 292 (pthread.c:2696) 22 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000022c350aac start_wqthread + 8 Thread 3: 0 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000022c350aa4 start_wqthread + 0 ...

We have a .ipa file that we need to side load on iPhone via USB connected to a MAC. IPA file will be on MAC. We can't use enterprise license. We have a business use case where we need to side load the app. Any way to do that or can be reach apple support for this? Please help. Note: The iPhones attached will not have the Apple ID logged in. There are companies who are side loading the app for business purpose on the customers phone.

My Apple developer certificates expire soon. Is it necessary to create new certificates?
My Apple developer certificates(4 certificates) expire soon. I'm developing an application for iOS but the application is not yet released in the App Store, only Testflight releases for private testing. Is it necessary to create 4 new certificates or can I edit the current certificates so that they don't expire soon?

Missing Apple-Hosted Background Assets info
After combing the forums and release nodes, here are some extra notes to help other developers using Apple-Hosted Background Assets. I don't promise I got this perfect, but it may help direct you. AssetPack.Status is an OptionSet (not an enum!) - Critical API detail missing from guide It's a bitmask where values can be combined 2⁰ (1) = available to download 2¹ (2) = update available 2² (4) = up to date 2⁶ (64) = downloaded Example: status value 69 = 0b1000101 = available + up to date + downloaded Use .contains() method to check specific flags AssetPack.version property - Undocumented feature Auto-assigned by App Store Connect for Apple-hosted packs Increments with each upload of same asset pack ID No file deduplication across asset packs Same file in two packs = counts twice toward 200GB limit Best practice: create separate pack for shared files Shared namespace path requirements Asset pack ID is NOT part of file path Each file must have unique relative path across ALL app's asset packs Example: Foo/10/239/414.png and Bar/10/239/414.png are distinct and won't collide Additional url(for:) bugs beyond iOS 26.1 fix iOS 26 Beta 5: "item with same name already exists" error Workaround: Request URL for directory, then manually append filename TestFlight-only availability - Major limitation not mentioned! Apple-hosted packs currently ONLY work for internal testers on TestFlight or from App Store. Won't work from Xcode until "later this year" HTTP 400 errors expected for non-TestFlight installs ba-serve port workaround URL override port bug exists on multiple device types Use ba-serve -p 443 instead of custom ports

Point out a translation problem in the Apple Human Interface Guide (Simplified Chinese)
辅助功能 | Apple Developer Documentation In the illustration on this page related to "Prefer system-defined colors," Light is incorrectly translated as "细体". However, in the context of this article, translating it as "浅色" (light color) would be a more appropriate choice.

How do I get HomeKit accessories to show up in the iOS Simulator?
I'm finding developing for HomeKit using the iOS Simulator utterly confounding. All of my home's actual HomeKit accessories show up fine when I run the HomeKit app I'm developing on my actual phone. But none show up when I run my app in the iOS Simulator. Maybe that's how it's supposed to be? I decided to run the HomeKit Accessory Simulator in an attempt to get something to show up in the iOS Simulator, but the accessories I've created there don't show up in the Simulator either. How do I get devices to show up in the iOS Simulator? Thanks.

Where is the `Metal-cpp-extensions` download website?
Hi, I really appreciate the C++ binding provided. I got the metal-cpp source code from the website at Getting Started. However, I could not find the same for metal-cpp-extensions. Is it not available or do we have to always extract it from the sample code? Thanks.

Capacitor iOS Plugin with MobileVLCKit – Swift Plugin Not Recognized from Angular
Hi everyone, I'm developing a Capacitor plugin to display an RTSP video stream using MobileVLCKit on iOS. The Android side works perfectly, but I can’t get the iOS plugin to work — it seems my Swift file is not being detected or recognized, even though I’ve followed the official steps. What works: I followed the Capacitor Plugin Development Guide. I implemented the Android version of the plugin in Java inside the android/ folder. Everything works perfectly from Angular: the plugin is recognized and calls execute correctly. The issue on iOS: I implemented the iOS part in Swift, using the official MobileVLCKit documentation. I initially placed my RtspVlcPlugin.swift file in the plugin’s iOS folder, as the docs suggest. Then I moved it directly into the main app’s ios/App/App/ folder next to AppDelegate.swift and tried manual registration. The problem: Even though I manually register the plugin with: if let bridge = self.window?.rootViewController as? CAPBridgeViewController { bridge.bridge?.registerPluginInstance(RtspVlcPlugin()) print("✅ Plugin RtspVlcPlugin registered manually.") } It prints the registration message just fine. BUT from Angular, the plugin is not recognized: Capacitor.Plugins.RtspVlcPlugin has no methods, and I get this error: "code":"UNIMPLEMENTED" I also tried declaring @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) and extending CAPPlugin. I’ve verified RtspVlcPlugin.swift is added to the target and compiled. The Swift file doesn’t seem to register or expose any methods to Angular. I even tried adding the code without using a plugin at all — just creating a Swift class and using it via the AppDelegate, but it still doesn't expose any callable methods. My Swift code (RtspVlcPlugin.swift): import Capacitor import MobileVLCKit @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) public class RtspVlcPlugin: CAPPlugin, VLCMediaPlayerDelegate { var mediaPlayer: VLCMediaPlayer? var containerView: UIView? var spinner: UIActivityIndicatorView? @objc func iniciar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { guard let urlStr = call.getString("url"), let x = call.getDouble("x"), let y = call.getDouble("y"), let w = call.getDouble("width"), let h = call.getDouble("height"), let url = URL(string: urlStr) else { call.reject("Missing parameters") return } DispatchQueue.main.async { self.containerView?.removeFromSuperview() let cont = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: x, y: y, width: w, height: h)) cont.backgroundColor = .black cont.layer.cornerRadius = 16 cont.clipsToBounds = true let sp = UIActivityIndicatorView(style: .large) sp.center = CGPoint(x: w/2, y: h/2) sp.color = .white sp.startAnimating() cont.addSubview(sp) self.spinner = sp self.containerView = cont self.bridge?.viewController?.view.addSubview(cont) let player = VLCMediaPlayer() player.delegate = self player.drawable = cont player.media = VLCMedia(url: url) self.mediaPlayer = player player.play() call.resolve() } } @objc func cerrar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { DispatchQueue.main.async { self.mediaPlayer?.stop() self.mediaPlayer = nil self.spinner?.stopAnimating() self.spinner?.removeFromSuperview() self.spinner = nil self.containerView?.removeFromSuperview() self.containerView = nil call.resolve() } } public func mediaPlayerStateChanged(_ aNotification: Notification!) { guard let player = mediaPlayer, player.state == .playing, let sp = spinner else { return } DispatchQueue.main.async { sp.stopAnimating() sp.removeFromSuperview() self.spinner = nil } } } In the Angular project, I’m using the plugin by manually registering it with registerPlugin from @capacitor/core. Specifically, in the service where I need it, I do the following: import { registerPlugin } from '@capacitor/core'; const RtspVlcPlugin: any = registerPlugin('RtspVlcPlugin'); After this, I try to call the methods defined in the iOS plugin, like RtspVlcPlugin.iniciar({ ... }), but I get an UNIMPLEMENTED error, which suggests that the plugin is not exposing its methods properly to the Angular/Capacitor environment. That makes me believe the problem lies in how the Swift file is integrated or registered, rather than how it is used from Angular. I’d appreciate any guidance on how to properly expose a Swift-based Capacitor plugin’s methods so that they are accessible from Angular. Is there any additional registration step or metadata I might be missing on the iOS side?

How to call a Swift file directly from Angular using Capacitor?
Hi everyone, I’m working on a Capacitor app built with Angular, and I’m trying to call a Swift class directly from the root of the iOS project (next to AppDelegate.swift) without using a full Capacitor plugin structure. The Swift file is called RtspVlcPlugin.swift and looks like this: import Capacitor @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) public class RtspVlcPlugin: CAPPlugin { @objc func iniciar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { call.resolve() } } In AppDelegate.swift I register it like this: if let bridge = self.window?.rootViewController as? CAPBridgeViewController { bridge.bridge?.registerPluginInstance(RtspVlcPlugin()) print("✅ RtspVlcPlugin registered.") } The registration message prints correctly in Xcode logs. But from Angular, when I try to call it like this: import { registerPlugin } from '@capacitor/core'; const RtspVlcPlugin: any = registerPlugin('RtspVlcPlugin'); RtspVlcPlugin.iniciar({ ... }); I get this error: {"code":"UNIMPLEMENTED"} So, even though the plugin is registered manually, it’s not exposing any methods to the Angular/Capacitor runtime. My question is: What is the correct way to access a manually created Swift class (in the root of the iOS project) from Angular via Capacitor? Thanks in advance!
