Issue Description

Since Xcode 13 and the iOS 16.1 simulator, up until the current 16.4, the status bar override for time doesn't work. Although this could get resolved soon, we still don't have any specific information from Apple on that specific subject.

Saagar Jha did a beautiful summary of the issue and suggests a workaround as well : https://mastodon.social/@[email protected]/110247648243275098

Workaround

Some people have been using the iOS 16.0 simulator to fix this issue. While this is entirely possible, it requires recreating your simulators, making sure your app runs on 16.0 properly and possibly not showcasing more recent features.

I have been able to use Saagar's workaround using the following changes :

  • in snapshot/lib/snapshot/simulator_launchers/simulator_launcher_base.rb, method override_status_bar

      # Replace
  Helper.backticks("xcrun simctl bootstatus #{device_udid} -b &> /dev/null")

  # With
  Helper.backticks("xcrun simctl boot #{device_udid} &> /dev/null")
  Helper.backticks("xcrun simctl bootstatus #{device_udid} -b &> /dev/null")

  • in your fastlane/Snapfile :

    • reinstall_app=false
    • override_status_bar true
    • override_status_bar_arguments "--time 9:41 --dataNetwork wifi --wifiMode active --wifiBars 3 --cellularMode active --operatorName '' --cellularBars 4 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100 --dataNetwork wifi"(note the 9:41 time instead of an ISO time which didn't seem to work)
    • don't add any medias

  • launch the snapshots using SIMCTL_CHILD_SIMULATOR_RUNTIME_VERSION=16.0 fastlane snapshot

Some parts can be done on the user side, but not the modification in override_status_bar. Those should be relatively harmless, donnot in themselves include any workaround, but allow users to prepare for a workaround while Apple fixes this.

Limitations

Because this requires the simulator to be launched using xcrun simctl boot instead of any other way, if the simulator is launched before hand, either while uninstalling the app, or adding medias, the workaround is moot.

Other tries

I tried setting up a global env var on my system and let everything run as is, but it didn't seem to work. Further investigation would be required.

launchctl setenv SIMCTL_CHILD_SIMULATOR_RUNTIME_VERSION 16.0
launchctl setenv SIMULATOR_RUNTIME_VERSION 16.0

On XCode 15, simulator on iOS 17.4, the status bar time override is indeed silently failing because of "&> /dev/null" at the end of the command line.

If you execute the command line without throwing away errors (by removing "&> /dev/null"), you'll get the following error :

xcrun simctl status_bar B3F29207-F9CF-424B-81BE-E931D4B87E33 override --time 2007-01-09T09:41:00+01:00 --dxcrun simctl status_bar B3F29207-F9CF-424B-81BE-E931D4B87E33 override --time 2007-01-09T09:41:00+01:00 --dataNetwork wifi --wifiMode active --wifiBars 3 --cellularMode active --operatorName '' --cellularBars 4 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100
An error was encountered processing the command (domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code=22):
Simulator device failed to complete the requested operation.
Invalid argument
Underlying error (domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code=22):
	Invalid, non-ISO date/time string
	Invalid argument

I ended up using override_status_bar_arguments as a workaround, with a proper ISO date (note the .000 missing in the original date/time string)

override_status_bar_arguments "--time 2007-01-09T09:41:00.000+01:00 --dataNetwork wifi --wifiMode active --wifiBars 3 --cellularMode active --operatorName '' --cellularBars 4 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100"
