Expo Go app download stuck for IOS simulator - ios

I have upgraded expo sdk to recent version 47.0.0.
And expo asked me to upgrade Expo Go version in IOS simulator, so I removed app in IOS simulator.
Then run expo start --ios
It stuck in downloading Expo Go app into IOS simulator.
To fix this, I tried these.
tried on different IOS simulators (iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro)
reset IOS simulator (Erase All Content and Settings...)
restart Computer.
installing fresh new app (it stucks too)
Lastly, I tried this
expo client:install:ios
It stuck too, but a few mins later, it shows this message.
This download is taking longer than expected. You can also try downloading the clients from the website at https://expo.dev/tools

Thanks.

Failed to prepare device for development error when deploying app

I am trying to run my app on a physical device. The applicaiton builds but it doesnt deploy my app to the device.
I get this following error:
This operation can fail if the version of the OS on the device is incompatible with the installed version of Xcode. You may also need to restart your mac and device in order to correctly detect compatibility.
Details:
I have xcode version 13.2.1
device is iphone 11 pro max with ios version 15.6 installed.
I tried to upgrade my xcode to 13.4.1 but on app store there is no button that indicates that i can upgrade.
Things I have tried:
restarting mac
restarting iphone device
closing and reopening xcode
cleaning project and rebuilding.
Any help will be appreciated.

React Native Expo Managed App doesn't launch/start on iOS simulator

I've been having hard times with my old Windows laptop while developing React Native apps so I moved to MacOS laptop. I installed Android Studio and Xcode (including Xcode command line tools). Then I initialized a blank expo managed project. I started both on Android Emulator and iOS simulator. Android one worked out with an ádb´ error (or maybe warning). But on the other hand, iOS simulator did nothing. There's no Expo Go app installed on iOS device, so it can not launch my app using it. I don't get any error or warning related to this problem, so I can't trace the problem.
I have tried deleting global expo folder located at ´~/.expo/´, I also tried to give 777 (all permissions) on that folder to my current user.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling expo package globally.
I made sure I have selected Xcode command line tools on ´Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Xcode 13.2.1 (13C100)´
I tried to launch different iOS devices like (iPhone 6, 8, 13, iPod etc.)
I tried clearing cache and starting expo with ´sudo npm start --clear-cache´
I have been trying to solve this for at least 2 hours tried everything possibly related to my problem but none of them did work. There's one thing I don't understand though. Even though I used different iOS device simulators the Expo Metro Bundler showed this ´› Opening exp://10.42.33.15:19000 on iPhone 8´ output. I have tried iPhone 13, iPhone 6, iPod etc. but this was the same output for different devices. Here's some screenshot related to probem:

This tutorial video on YouTube helped me solve my problems. I think I was missing a few things:
I haven't granted required privacy permissions on my Mac for Xcode, Android Studio and VS Code. Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Go Privacy Tab > Give Full Disk Access to Xcode, VS Code, Android Studio, Terminal and Watchman (Watchman is not required, but I have also installed it for solving a problem before)
You should to launch both your Android and iOS simulators before starting your expo application. Simply go to Android Studio and launch your device. To launch iOS device use bash and type open -a simulator.
If you don't have Expo Go app installed on your iOS simulator then you should first install it before starting your expo app. To install it use expo client:install:ios command.
Start your app by using expo start command. Type i and a or click on Run on iOS simulator and Run on Android device/emulator buttons to launch your app on devices.
NOTE: If you app gets stuck at New update available, downloading... stage then you can start your expo app with cleaned cache using expo start -c command. It was helpful for me.
NOTE 2: You may need to use sudo command on some of the commands I've mentioned, I'm not sure which ones are required or not.
I run into the same issue every time when I tried to set it up on a new laptop.
Its fixed after the installation of xCode cli.
Take a look at this - https://docs.expo.dev/workflow/ios-simulator/
I fixed similar issue by hard restarting simulator

React Native: IOS app crashing at splash screen after successful build on iPhone 11 (IOS 15.0)

Recently I have updated my Xcode and its developer tools to 13.0 from 12.5. When I ran react-native run-ios after upgrade, I get an error asking me to upgrade from Legacy Build System to New Build System.
After upgrading I ran react-native run-ios again. The IOS app built successfully but when I click on the app in iPhone 11 (IOS 15.0), it shows splash screen for some micro seconds and then crashes. Here is the screenshot of the build system change I did
Screenshot of BUILD SUCCESSFUL message
Also, when I try to build from Xcode13, it builds successfully but shows following in output log
Please help on this. Thanks in advance.

Flutter (iOS) app start and stops with crash

I have developed a Flutter Android app and that is working fine. Now I am working on the iOS side. I have configured Firebase and notification APN etc. When I run the app by attaching the real device the app got installed but it just crashes and closes. There are no logs in the console of Android studio.
It just prints below logs.
Launching lib/main.dart on sign's iPhone in debug mode...
Automatically signing iOS for device deployment using specified development team in Xcode
project: ABCD7AUXYZ
Running Xcode build...
Xcode build done. 78.0s
Installing and launching...
Where can I find more logs about the crash?
When I build the project using the Xcode (Thanks to #Blasanka & #Kevin Renskers) I was able to find out the issue. Actually I was missing the Admob id in the plist file and the internet permission (thanks to #Stephen J).
thanks you for your time and help.

Flutter app stuck on Installing and Launching step for physical iPhone

Annoying problem here for my Flutter app: iOS13.3, Xcode11.3 on a physical iPhoneX. The iOS-Simulators all work. The problem is only happening on a physical device. The Flutter App freezes at startup (i.e. at Installing and Launching... step) ! Any ideas ??
My flutter doctor -v does not bring any problems. Also tried flutter clean and flutter upgrade. But nothing seems to fix the problem...
If I run the App from Xcode (Runner.xcworkspace) then everything works as well. Only from VSCode and Flutter, I can no longer launch my physical iPhoneX.
Also, when uploaded to TestFlight, the App freezes at App Start ! (grey screen freeze). Therefore Apple App Store rejects all Flutter Apps for now ! Very annoying.
I am not sure if the Installing and Launching... freeze is related to the TestFlight and App Store Problem !! Might as well be...
This fixed the issue for me:
Run the app from Xcode.
Disable WiFi on iPhone.
Run from Android Studio.
Turn on WiFi on iPhone once the launch process has completed.
This is a workaround solution
I was having this issue. I uninstalled the app from my device, opened the project in xcode, ran some build cleaning thing that appeared in the yellow triangle warning area, then built the app via xcode. Then uninstalled the app from device again. Then ran via android studio and it worked.
Basically, it is because of might some files
For me, this worked
Follows these steps: Go to Flutter > bin > cache
and delete the Artifact folder
Try executing the command: killall -9 dart and retry.
As in my case, I use one of following solutions to fix the issue:
#1. close WiFi on mac, then run from Android Studio; OR
#2. close WiFi on both mac and iphone, then run from Android Studio; OR
#3. enable hotspot on iphone and connect it from mac, then run from Android Studio;
