--
We all know that Apple ships the most durable USB cables which last for a lifetime๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐. It was a pain for app developers to always connect and disconnect the device for app installation and debugging which will damage the USB cable pretty easily. Well, in xcode 9 , debugging feature on Xcode 9 at WWDC 17. Lets see how to do it.
Minimum Requirements:
- iOS11
- Xcode 9
Steps to set up the device:
- Xcode Menubar โ Window โDevices and Simulators
- Connect the device to your Mac using a lightning cable.
- If your device is displayed in the Devices and simulators window, your connection was successful. Click on your device and in the right detail pane, check for โConnect via network โ checkbox.
- Tick the checkbox and a network icon will be displayed toward the right of the device name.
- Thats it. Disconnect your device and now you can install or debug without using the cable.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the device is connected to the same network as that of the mac ๐ง ๐ง ๐ง ๐ง.
Thats it.!!
