This is a known issue that we will have a fix for in a future SDK release.

Unable to connect to simulator on the first attempt

MacBook Air M1, MacOS every version since 2020

Every SDK version, currently tested with Connect IQ SDK 6.4.2, Connect IQ SDK 7.0.2 Beta

VS Code 1.87.2

VS Code Extension v1.0.10

 

Steps to reproduce:

1) Make sure CIQ Simulator is not running

2) Try to run any app from VS Code menu 'Run Without Debugging'. Most of the time the simulator window pops up empty, and in the DEBUG CONSOLE 'Unable to connect to simulator' message is shown. Once the simulator window is up, the second attempt to run the app usually succeeds. But not always. Sometimes it becomes impossible to run an app without restarting VS Code. Only very rarely the simulator is able to launch and run the app without fail on the first attempt.

    Yes, that happens all the time on Mac.

    Also after a longer use it just gets stuck and you need to restart the simulator. Which is extra annoying, if you need to simulate locations. You need to reopen the simulate window, select the .fit tile again, find the timestamp... It happens to me multiple times a day.
