    Hello.

    The last release of Qt creator still does not support deploying apps on iOS 17 device. Currently I can only switch between Xcode and Creator, one for deployment and the other for development.

    Are there any plans to support it, please?

    Thanks.

      This is user forum and your question is more towards Qt developers. You should ask on QT development mailing list: https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development

          @Tao-Lei AFAIK this isn't a problem with Qt, but Apple. Same happens for Flutter apps.
          Unless Apple will provide a better tooling for iOS17 devices you can only deploy to iOS Simulator in QtCreator, but without Application output.
          From QtCreator docs:

          However, these features are not supported for physical devices with iOS 17 or later because of limitations of the Apple tool for accessing these devices.

                Solved.
                Updated to Qt creator 13.0.2 and iOS 17.5.1, apps can be deployed and run on physical iPad.

                      @Tao-Lei thx. so we can now deploy and run on iOS 17 devices, but to see the application output, we must use Xcode. hopefully apple enhances the tooling support
