Glidr - TODO

Session 2026-03-16: Xcode Build + App Store Submission

What Was Done

Xcode Project Setup

• Created Glidr.xcodeproj / Glidr.xcworkspace (renamed from Runner)
• All Runner references replaced with Glidr in: pbxproj, Podfile, xcscheme, xcworkspacedata, xcconfig files, storyboards
• Team ID: 7KU642K5ZL, Bundle ID: com.tekmidian.glidr
• Signing: Automatic with Apple Development: Matthias Nott
• Created Runner.xcscheme symlink -> Glidr.xcscheme (needed for flutter CLI)

Build Issues Fixed

• Homebrew rsync 3.4.1 incompatible with Xcode distribution (causes "Copy failed")
  • Fix: mv /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync.bak before distribution, restore after
• Icon alpha channels: App Store rejects transparent icons
  • Fix: Python PIL script removes alpha, saves as RGB
• Overflow UI indicator ("RFLOWED BY" text): leadingWidth too small in home_screen.dart
  • Fix: Wrapped in ClipRect + OverflowBox, increased leadingWidth to 110

Docker / youdrill.com Server

• Created youdrill-website container (nginx:alpine) alongside existing youdrill-api (node:22-alpine)
• docker-compose.yml at /opt/data/youdrill/docker-compose.yml - has both services
• Traefik config at /opt/data/traefik/dynamic/youdrill.yaml - routes /glidr/ to website, rest to API
• Static files at /opt/data/youdrill/website/
  • /glidr/privacy.html - privacy policy (live, verified 200)
  • /glidr/support.html - support page
  • /glidr/index.html - landing page
  • /index.html - root (for healthcheck)
• Container is healthy

Code Changes Made

• ios/Glidr/Info.plist: CFBundleDisplayName changed to "Glider Pilot"
• lib/screens/home_screen.dart: title changed to "Glider Pilot", leading wrapped in ClipRect/OverflowBox
• createicon.py: OUTPUTDIR path updated from Runner to Glidr
• ios/Glidr.xcodeproj/xcshareddata/xcschemes/Glidr.xcscheme: LaunchAction buildConfiguration changed to Release
• Runner.xcscheme symlink created pointing to Glidr.xcscheme

App Icon

• Smiling glider plane icon restored from git history (commit a8a0c56)
• Alpha channels removed from all 15 icon PNGs for App Store compliance
• Icons in ios/Glidr/Assets.xcassets/AppIcon.appiconset/

Known Issues

• App crashes on iPhone restart when deployed via Xcode Cmd+R (development signing issue)
  • Dev-signed apps have get-task-allow=true, iOS 26 kills process without debugger
  • Fix: Use flutter build ipa --release + devicectl install, or TestFlight
  • flutter build ipa --release --no-pub (then xcrun devicectl device install app)
• Homebrew rsync must be temporarily moved aside for Xcode distribution
• Scheme rename to "Glider Pilot" broke flutter CLI - reverted to "Glidr" with Runner symlink
• Simulators must be shut down before flutter device detection (xcrun simctl shutdown all)
• flutter run --release hangs on device detection with Xcode 26 beta

Deploy Commands

```bash # Build release IPA cd /Users/i052341/dev/apps/glidr flutter build ipa --release --no-pub

Install on iPhone

xcrun devicectl device install app --device 00008150-001609EA3CEA401C build/ios/ipa/glidr.ipa

Archive and distribute (Xcode GUI)

1. Move homebrew rsync: mv /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync.bak

2. Open Glidr.xcworkspace, set destination to "Any iOS Device"

3. Product > Archive

4. Distribute App > App Store Connect > Distribute

5. Restore rsync: mv /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync.bak /opt/homebrew/bin/rsync

```
