Xcode for iOS app with AI

Build, sign, run, ship in the iOS app with AI stack. Where the app actually compiles and runs. Required for Simulator, Instruments (profiling), Signing & Capabilities, and App Store Connect distribution. AI agents drive Cursor; you drive Xcode.

Where Xcode fits in the workflow
  1. 3
    Run in the Simulator

    Cmd-R in Xcode. Cursor's preview is fast; Xcode's Simulator is the truth. If the layout breaks at smaller sizes (SE) or with Dynamic Type at the largest setting, fix before moving on — App Review reads accessibility.

  2. 4
    Sign + archive + upload

    Xcode → Product → Archive → Distribute App → App Store Connect. Once: set up automatic signing in Signing & Capabilities. TestFlight build is ready in ~10 min.
