yes it does. not sure what might be wrong with your setup, we’d need more information and you might want to try standard troubleshooting techniques to dig deeper

[harryp]

What info do you need @notbrent ?

[notbrent]

it looks like xcrun is failing. try starting with just yarn start and then press i to open simulator to see more info. also try starting simulator separately. something is wrong with simulator startup on your machine

[harryp]

I tried, Same fucking Bullshit.

Opening on iOS…

it’s hard to say what is going wrong. xcrun is an xcode utility for interacting with simulators, and it’s the only reasonable api for us to use here. it doesn’t provide any documentation around the exit codes, as far as i know, so exit code 4 isn’t so meaningful to us. you can open the simulator manually by looking for “simulator” in spotlight, download the expo client app from Get Expo Tools — Expo (the “Download IPA” link), extract the downloaded archive to get the .app file, and then drag and drop the .app file into the simulator to install the expo client app. if you end up learning more about what exit code 4 means, let us know.

I hesitate to suggest this because of how large it is, but maybe try reinstalling Xcode?

[harryp]

I couldn’t find any .app file after i extracted the downloaded archive.

[notbrent]

ah sorry, the folder is the .app. you can rename the entire extracted folder to add the .app extension then drag that in
