Issue/Introduction

Error: Unsupported Architectures. The executables for VIPiOS.framework contains unsupported architectures (arm64 or x86_64).

Resolution

All frameworks VIP ships are universal with architecture slices for both physical devices (arm_v7 & arm64) and simulators (x86_64). This allows applications to be run on the platforms while in development and testing. Before archiving for upload to the Appstore, remove the slice for the simulator. A shell script (or something similar) can accomplish this. Attached is a sample script for reference only (TrimFramework.sh).
