使用 Xcode 13 构建后，应用程序在 iOS 12 及更低版本上崩溃

Question

An app which was running successfully on iOS 9-15 now crashes on launch on iOS 9-12 when building with Xcode 13.1 (on M1 Pro) that I just upgraded to.

It crashes on unarchive of the main storyboard due to use of UITabBarAppearance which only exists on iOS 13+ (see trace below). My storyboard entry point is a Tab Bar Controller.

I have not edited my storyboard file since this was working on iOS 9-15 with previous Xcode versions and the crash occurs before any of my code runs.

In the hope it was a simulator-only issue (I have no old-iOS devices) I uploaded to the store but the app crashes on launch on real devices too on iOS12 and below. https://apps.apple.com/nz/app/campermate-australia-nz/id1586561660

Minimum OS target is 9.0. We could drop support for iOS 9-11 but we still have plenty of iPhone 6 and 5 users (who are limited to iOS 12).

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

At the bottom of the stack trace it says:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidUnarchiveOperationException', reason: ' Could not instantiate class named UITabBarAppearance because no class named UITabBarAppearance was found ; the class needs to be defined in source code or linked in from a library (ensure the class is part of the correct target)' terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

UITabBarAppearance was introduced in iOS 13, so it won't work with older iOS versions. Check your code for any occurrences of UITabBarAppearance and either remove them or wrap in an if #available . It could also be a problem with the storyboard using UITabBarAppearance internally.

Answer 2

XCode had sneakily inserted these into my storyboard file without my knowledge!

<tabBarAppearance key="standardAppearance"/>

and

<navigationBarAppearance key="standardAppearance"/>

Deleting these fixed it. I set appearance for iOS13+ in my code within a version check.

Answer 3

I resolved this by manually adding LinkPresentation.framework to "Link Binary with Libraries" in build phase, and setting its status to Optional.
