I've got a Xamarin.Forms Project containing an Android and an iOS Platform Project.
I've got my whole application working on Android and I am now struggling on the iOS part. I can't get my images to display on iOS.
I've followed the Microsoft guide on how to work with images on Xamarin.iOS, but it's simply not working.
I have created a minimum example from a new project and uploaded it to GitHub, it can be found here.
Output: On Android, the image is being displayed fine, on iOS, the screen stays empty. In addition to that, the logs I've added to AppDelegate.cs show, that the images cannot be found by using UIImage.FromBundle()
I've also checked the CSProject file of the iOS project, but it already contains the <ImageAsset> item groups.
I am on Visual Studio Professional 2022 (Windows) Version 17.4.1
Can someone please have a look into this? I am going crazy...
I have test your project with the Visual Studio 2022 for mac. And I had the same results in the Android platform and ios platform. The small car icon will show at the top of the screen.
But for the iphone 14 pro simulator, which has a notch screen. The car icon almost be covered. So you can try to run it on the ipad or a device without notch screen to check the car icon will show or not.
In addition, I have checked your Assets.xcassets folder and the official sample on the github. There is no a such xxx_vector folder in it.
Background information:
What's deprecated (but still works) is individual resource files (aaa.png, aaa#x2.png), with no xcasset.
An xcasset containing those files is not deprecated. Nor is it likely to become deprecated in the future.
If you still want to test with .pdf containing vectors:
What is problematic about your setup is that you have TWO representations of car_settings. One with .pngs, one with vector pdf.
What happens if you remove the xcasset with .pngs, and rename the one with pdf to match the filename in it? (car_settings xcasset, with car_settings.pdf).
Close VS, and delete all .bin and .obj folders after making this change, to ensure VS correctly rebuilds with the vector version.
If this still fails, then you likely have encountered a bug. Add as an issue at github xamarin forms issues. Be sure to mention the versions of VS and Xamarin.Forms that has the problem.
Hi I got this error while uploading archive with xCode.
Does anybody had this error before ? Thanks
I exported IPA from Organizer and used Transporter app which finally helped me to see the issues.
Install the "Transporter" app from the MacOS app store.
From Xcode's organizer, select your archive and press "Distribute App"
Instead of "Upload", select "Export" and proceed as usual.
Drop the exported .ipa into the transporter and press "Deliver".
In case your current app version is already in approved but not released status, you cannot use the same version number. You must go higher version.
In my case, it was the version number. Once App is published on App Store, to push update use a higher version number e.g 1.0.1 (if in production we have App version 1.0.0).
Ways to fix this:
Check if the new version is greater than the previous version.
In the issue navigator, you just need to apply the changes recommended by Xcode. Start clicking the issue to see the recommendations, it will prompt automatically.
Download Transporter, to see the details of the error.
You need to export appName.ipa from Xcode
Upload the appName.ipa in the Transporter
I had the same problem. Even though validation continued to fail, I eventually just tried clicking on the "Distribute App" button in Organizer. That also failed, but gave me a much more helpful error message. Turned out that the issue had nothing to do with Assets. I added a redirect uri scheme that contained an invalid character. I fixed that, and the validation succeeded.
I was getting the same error but when i tried to upload the app, it gives me the detailed info, i was using the same version for the latest build which apple doesn't accept. I just changed the version number for that build and able to upload the app successfully.
There is something wrong in your assets. Either the app icons are not correct/missing OR you need to check your images.
I am also encountering this error with an Ionic project. Even though my build failed Xcode validation, I tried to distribute it to the App Store anyway, and received the following error, which provided more detail:
Missing Info.plist value. A value for the Info.plist key 'CFBundleIconName' is missing in the bundle 'xx.xxxxx.xxxxxxxx'. Apps built with iOS 11 or later SDK must supply app icons in an asset catalog and must also provide a value for this Info.plist key. For more information see http://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/current/#/dev10510b1f7. With error code STATE_ERROR.VALIDATION_ERROR.90713 for id 97fb5968-9248-4336-a622-e015181dd333
In Xcode I examined the app/app/assets and under AppIcon the 1024x1024px icon was missing. I added a file, generated a new build, and subsequently was able to Archive, validate and deploy.
This error message occurs by different situactions, to address your problem you can distribute your app directly to get more detail error message.
I got same message because I overrite my ios folder with a older one,
issue fixed by replacing a ios folder with a new one.( you can run "flutter create newProject" to get it)
The XGA-sized icon for the App Store cannot have an Alpha channel (and only that one - all other assets are OK with Alpha channels... go figure). It's one of the many, many unnecessary quirks Xcode / AppStore Connect have that drive me nuts.
In my case, the app was approved for release with the same version number. So I have to cancel the release to validate and distribute the app with the same build number. Or you can change the build number.
You can cancel the release in AppStore connect. It's a blue button on the top of the page.
Found that the problem was with the assets like it's said in the error. Don't know if it's a new requirement by apple or if it's an old one but you cannot have an alpha channel in your assets. So I just edited all my assets and deleted the alpha channels and then it worked ! Hope it help ;)
I just changed the iOS build version 3.6.3(92) to 3.6.4(92) from runner and it works fine. So, try changing your build version properly.
In my case two mistakes, I did
The first one is the store version and Xcode build versions are not matching
The second one is something wrong with our assets. (Either the app icons are not created/missing or other images)
If you have already deployed (to the app store) the same version of the app you are attempting to validate for TestFlight, you will see this error message. The new TestFlight release must have a succeeding version number in comparison to the latest version of the app, if it is already on the app store.
Remove alpha channel only for the icon "App Store iOS 1024pt" (Assets.xcassets) and you will fix the issue "App Store Connect Operation Error - Asset validation failed"
In my case there were some errors with the icons in Runner/Assets.
I just deleted those images was shown in the image bellow and everything works fine.
If your app has "Approved" state, but it is not released yet - you can not use same version number.
You have two options:
increase version number (not just version code);
cancel release (nothing will be deleted, just your approval will be cancelled), validate and distribute app, submit for approval.
i have found a solution to this problem,
you need to double check that, you have check the iphone or Ipad checkbox on xcode , but you have to upload the Iphone icons or ipad icons, one of them is missing.
I got the same error message when I tried to validate my app, so I tried to distribute the app and I got a full error message, in my case was:
Invalid Provisioning Profile Signature. The provisioning profile included in the bundle 'netoloboapps.com.mensagensProntas' (Payload/Runner.app) cannot be used to submit apps to the iOS App Store until it has a valid signature from Apple. (Expired profile signing certificate.) For more information, visit the iOS Developer Portal. With error code STATE_ERROR.VALIDATION_ERROR.90165 for id b493faef-bcf5-4732-995d-f7c6609a0354
My problem was a expired signing certificated. So here's the tip, check out the complete error message and see the source of the problem.
I got the same error too. I contacted Apple and received the following reply:
Thank you for contacting Apple Developer Program Support.
We are sorry to hear that an error message is displayed in Xcode and that you are unable to distribute the app.
We have checked our available resources and found that none of them correspond to the error you have inquired about.

I found same issue, but i dont see error reporting anywhere. I build my app with Flutter and i try edit version in pubsbec.yaml. and i edit too version app in xcode. then my app success validate and distribute
In my case I was messing some AppIcon resolution images for iPad. Also I made sure that the version and the build are set correctly.
1- Go to the icons folder
/myapp/ios/App/App/Assets.xcassets/
2- Open the photo
3- Click File, then choose Export
4- Deselect from Alpha and replace the image
This should be applied to all icons
I got the error when the WatchApp uses the healthkit api but not adds description into info.plist.
I use the Transporter App to upload, it shows the error summery.
For Flutter Developer, Change the version number. From Example in pub.yaml, 1.0.0+4 to 1.0.1+5.
If this is a new project and you are uploading to the App Store for the first time, you must have app icons set in the Assets folder.
This is why it could say "Asset validation failed".
The only one solution helps me is transfer app to other AppStore account.
Before uploading the app to the app store first we need to validate the app to check whether the app has any errors or not.
Another advantage of validating app is it’ll provide detailed error.
I found 3 scenarios on which this error will occur:
=> if we are not updating the version name
=> Alpha channel in all the images of Assets.xcassets/ should be removed (you can download alpha channel remover for that)
=> if we have selected Ipad in general settings Portrait, landscape right , landscape left should be enable if we have given just portrait mode we will face the same error.
Happy coding :)
ERROR ITMS-90022: "Missing required icon file. The bundle does not
contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120'
pixels, in .png format for iOS versions >= 7.0."
WARNING ITMS-90704: "Missing Marketing Icon. iOS Apps must include a
1024x1024px Marketing Icon in PNG format. Apps that do not include the
Marketing Icon cannot be submitted for App Review or Beta App Review."
I set the appropriate image (PNG format) in all fields of the xcassets file.
But one error and warning comes out.
Environment
Xcode 9.0 release version
Cocoapods
Carthage
Xcode 9 has new icon sizes. Please check the Images.xcassets file: AppIcon
In my case, it indicates a missing of AppStore Icon;
Xcode9 added a new icon in AppIcon called App Store iOS 1024pt, so add the icon missing resolved this issue.
In my case, the 90704 message said, "iOS Apps must include a 1024x1024px App Store Icon in PNG format. Without providing the icon in the Asset Catalog or via iTunes Connect, apps cannot be submitted for App Review or Beta App Review." This indicates that having the store icon as part of the store listing as I've always had it is enough. But Apple wouldn't accept my app until I also added the store icon to the app itself (in the AppIcon asset catalog).
My app has a watch extension, and I also had to add the store icon to the watch extension's asset catalog.
Don't forget to increment your build number after adding the icons, or Apple will then reject the app for having a duplicate build number.
We had this issue when tried to submit the app from macOS 10.13 High Sierra.
Everything was okay when we switched to stable macOS 10.12.6
Probably it's a bug of APFS/Xcode 9/CocoaPods...
You can archive your application by Xcode 9 and upload this archive by Xcode 8. Or you can edit Info.plist file in the archive and switch the value of field 'BuildMachineOSBuild' to 16A323. Why this? I don't know, but it works. I found this solution here: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/86290
After uploading you see only warning.
UPD:
Probably Apple fixed this bug. Now my archives are uploaded correctly without any modifications.
When I build my titanium app in appcelerator, the app icon is missing from the organiser when I build it for app store submission
How can I resolve this thanks
Edit:
In itunes connect, this is how it appears after I select the build:
Icon is missing.
Yes we need to have the iTunesArtwork(512X512) and iTunesArtwork#2x(1024X1024) in the folder Resource->iphone-> here we need to have that 2 files.
I've met the same problem recently. I don't know the real reason behind that, but I find that if I change the extension of the image file directly from jpg to png, the AppIcon will not show in the organizer. However, if I open the image with the preview application, export png version of the image and add it to Xcode, the AppIcon will show in the organizer.
Hope this will be helpful for you.
Do you have the iTunesArtwork and iTunesArtwork#2x images in the root of your Titanium project? They are simply png images without the extension. They go in the same folder as the tiapp.xml.
Check alpha channel for all app icons. If alpha channel is exist then just remove alpha channel and then try it.
Thanks
For iOS Only
If you are using Ti SDK >= 5.0.0 GA you must make an Icon called DefaultIcon.png and Ti will make all icons you want automatically !.
You are recommended to add a 1024 x 1024 PNG image, named DefaultIcon.png placed in the project's root folder, which is used to generate all or only omitted icons for the project. New Titanium projects will have the DefaultIcon.png file.
