Product:Developer Tools Product Version:Xcode >= 6.3
Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:

When creating a new WatchKit extension, Xcode will automatically create them with the default deployment target 8.3. This is actually not supported, though: “WatchKit apps must have a deployment target equal to iOS 8.2”

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create an iOS application project
2. Add a WatchKit extension target
3. Click “Build”

Expected Results:

The WatchKit extension should build with default settings.

Actual Results:

The WatchKit extension does not build, because “WatchKit apps must have a deployment target equal to iOS 8.2”

Regression:

Didn’t happen with Xcode 6.2, because 8.2 was the default deployment target there.
