Xcode 12 Reviews

Xcode offered a great amount of endless design options. Loved the way you can do a simulation of your app in a sandbox environment on different Apple devices from iPad Air to the latest iPhone or Apple Watch. Great library for filing media items too.

You can build any app you are after, given that you either know Swift (coding language) back to front or have plenty of time to research how to build your app. Cons are that it is very code intensive and difficult to wrap your head around some trickier concepts to bring them to life. Another con is the difficulty with publishing apps not always displaying why they got rejected from the app store and also adding in-app purchase functionality is difficult.

Xcode is essentially the only tool with which it is relatively convenient to develop applications on Apple devices. It has a lot of features, but from the QA positions I like the source code debugger the most, it's top quality

Unfortunately, Xcode has several bugs, the app often crashes when it is committed to other branches. The application does not compile, but the exact error is not reported. It has less user friendly user interface.

When it comes to competition with other app builders, Xcode Apps displays a touch of seniority over others with a superior user interface, a robust system and user experience, and a multifaceted design layout.very unique in terms of features, functionalities, and deployment.After code assembly, you can upload your IPA apps directly to the Apple IOS store, with instant support from the Apple team and a massive community to gain insight from and learn from.

It takes a long time to load.Why does this only work for the deployment of an iOS app?I'll suggest making it a bit faster to load. Keeping up with all of the updates can be difficult due to unexpected emulator stoppages, builder interruptions, and stoppages. 

Xcode is the best tool for developing iOS apps in Swift: it's very well integrated with the language, the compiler and the source control (Git). You can easily start developing your first mobile app for iPhone or you can use it for huge and professional products.

It’s not rare that the program crashes or is unresponsive, especially with big projects. The issue is easily fixed restarting the program.

1. Best tool for mobile and web application development. 2. Setting application metadata like media is very easy. 3. Code, test, deploy at one place only. 4. Setting up an team and developer certificate easily. 5. Build time is very fast. 6. Deployment feature is really intelligent as it will assist you till the app is getting deployed on the app store.

1. Profile and developer certificate maintenance is one of the great challenge while deploying the application on the app store but once it is setup it is very easy to deploy. 2. Initial setup is requires some extra efforts. 3. It consumes a lot of memory and CPU and requires to wait sometime.

I've been an iOS developer for 10 years and I can tell Apple has done a great job. The management of the devices on which to debug is excellent, and the creation of the builds for the deployment on the store is equally excellent.

sometimes there is some slowdown when viewing complex storyboards, but completely manageable.

XCode is packed with development features for iPhones and iPads. Ranging from the best code auto-completion tools in the industry (in my opinion) to its very accurate and fast simulators it is simply the best place to start with native iOS app development.

Theres constantly bugs in the software - particularly around a major release. These bugs tend to be removed or fade over the next year before a whole new set of bugs get introduced again. Some confounding bugs recently were released in XCode 13.2 in which the Mac App store version of the app didn't work and required a fresh install. Quality control isn't always there.

Ease of use, Speed, Performance. Graphical UI of designs, Auto correcting, Syntax support, Packages, Plugins

Keep crashing, consumes more memory, a lot of memory in the cache, derived data consumes whole mac space

The autocompletion feature is nice for Swift and Objective-C. Xcode 12 can be used to submit the app directly into the app store. Xcode 12 has a lot of great documentation since it has been the standard tool for iOS development for a while. The simulator can be used to simulate different devices with different Operating Systems.

Xcode provides a lot of advanced options in their User Interface, but a lot of options can be overwhelming. Storyboard merges can be nearly impossible to resolve. Sometimes, an error message can be difficult to debug. Frequent updates. Requires 40GB of free space to update on the latest versions.

OverAll Looks of IDE is very good. it is more user friendly by using their tabs and navigation system.

storyboard are always get conflict when more developers are working on same project.

Xcode is the only IDE for developing apps for Apple devices. Supports Objective C and Swift programming languages. The excellent user interface, code auto-completion, great documentation, team collaboration features, and app store deployment, all in one single software.

Xcode requires macOS. Must have a credit card to deploy apps.

It has all new design that certainly look great on macOS Big Sur. It has customisable font size for the navigator. It has the next swift update which means more features, resulting better, cleaner and safer. The new Swift UI App Life Cycle brings a new addition to the initial configuration.

Hardly any information found to solve problems.

Its a great compiler user as a QA Engineer i can easily compile the builds and test them. Overall it's a good tool

Xcode has a lot of problems - First of all, it's very heavy, you have to wait a whole day if any update comes up. sometimes the user has to clean up some memory because of its memory consumption. - If you have MAC 2015 or 16 your laptop will come near to crash because it too heavy - On the old model of mac as I mentioned earlier the build-making takes too much time - If the user needs to make an .IPA file you have to go through a look process unlike in android studio - Xcode should be release for windows as well currently its not for windows

- It has tons of small features that can boost your productivity (ex. behaviors); - Has support for building apps for all Apple operating systems (ex. tvOS, watchOS, iOS, etc.); - PLAYGROUNDS; - Very fast and good simulator (compared to Android);

- INDEXING... On large projects, the performance starts to drop drastically. Features like "jump to definition", "find call hierarchy" or other refactoring tools stop working; - It can be painful to work with SwiftUI due to Xcode bugs.

I like the most about this software: ease of use and all-in-one tool feature. So I can do all programming-related work in my Xcode 12. So I don't have to use multiple tools to complete my tasks like app development, software development, and other stuff. Also, like the auto-suggestion tooltips feature. I like to use this software to develop enterprise applications, android, and ios apps and games.

If I have to build an ios app or game then I must have to use Xcode, I don't like this thing. It shouldn't be bound.

This product is THE way to handle Swift development for macOS and iOS. I've never had it crash on me, the built-in compiler is top notch and it is incredibly easy to send an application over to your mobile device

This software CAN be used for things like C++ development. Don't use it for that, there are better options out there. Its handling of anything NOT native Apple-developed Swift is very hit or miss for usability.

As with any Apple product, I love the Slick UI and the UX of XCode. It is a daunting and a complex beast of an IDE, but it does look good and you can access stuff you want easily. It also has such an easy connection for releasing TestFlight apps and making archives for the App store, which does compensate for some of its frustrations and quirks. I also loved the emulators, which are pretty light on the system and do work so smoothly to test out your apps.

I really dislike the way debugging works on Xcode, it is a cumbersome process. Also, while exporting archives and app packages, it raises errors after a substantial amount of time instead of warning about it earlier on. And, the permission settings are pretty confusing and the countless amounts of errors I have gotten due it is a painful experience to have. Finally, it is really slow at times. I've used it on a Mac mini and a Macbook pro and the plodding performance has always been an issue for me.

- Super easy to use and set up - Dark mode is an option - Provides amazing support for Swift development (i.e. all Apple development) - Easy to run/test your code

- No tab autocomplete for C++ - Error messages aren't always completely clear in C++ development (like kind of terribly bad)

Xcode 12 offers extensive features with the key addition of Swift 5.3 for IOS 14 users, a crucial aspect in development for the new IOS User Interface. My personal favourite usage of Xcode 12 is the feature enabling application creation for the Apple TV as being capable of creating a software and projecting it onto my large-screen TV is an amazing feeling! I also use App Thinning to optimize my applications, and I would highly recommend it.

The application size for Xcode 12 is very storage consuming and may slow-down your computer, yet such a result is expected when running a large-scale software.

XCode has a very good developer community. It's code completion feature is what i like most. It is the most preferred IDE to develop iOS apps.

Working with multiple projects on XCode is a bit of a headache. The load time is very high.

There are many great features in XCode that I like.XCode 12 performs very well on code completion. We can learn profiling in a very natural way using XCode 12. Also, the app store has a very large audience.

The app store approval process is very frustrating and lengthy. XCode does not support tabbed work environments.

Xcode is good to develop iOS apps. New Xcode features Swift UI is much easier to use for creating UI for iOS apps. The code completion suggestion is very powerful

when you start opening multiple tabs, it will hit your computer memory very hard and you will face system crash or hang several times.

Xcode è un scelta obbligata per chi si accinge allo sviluppo di applicazioni iOS e macOS. Ho trovato l' interfaccia utente abbastanza intuitiva anche se può all'inizio disorientare un nuovo utente ma a mio avviso l'unico vero pregio di questo IDE è l'emulatore integrato che permette di debuggare le applicazioni anche senza avere un dispositivo apple fisico (permettendo di risparmiare parecchio)

I difetti purtroppo superano i pregi. Innanzitutto per utilizzare Xcode è necessario avere un Mac (molto oneroso) ma il problema principale è che l'IDE soprattutto nelle ultime versioni presenta numerosi bug. inoltre è molto lento in fase di compilazione e di segnalazione degli errori. Infine scaricare xcode e gli sdk necessari alla programmazione di app mobile occupa molto spazio sull'hardisk

Facilità di utilizzo. Ottimo IDE. Utilissimo la funzionalità ad alto livello che permette di collegare codice e UI.

Durante il debugging capita a volte di perdere il collegamento con il device.

El ambiente grafico, tengo el código y la vista previa con su emulador para poder probar en tiempo real las funciones que estoy programando.

No hay algo que pueda decir, para mi el software esta perfecto.
