Khaos TianTurns out you can actually buy third party Apple Watch dock and use it with Xcode. The debugger actually works now compared to the wireless development stuff đ
David Smith@khaost !!!! Oh my goodness Iâve been trying to find something like that for years. I heard legends of them within Apple (and in Apple Store repair rooms) but never could find one for purchase.
@khaost did you also need to buy the iMFC software? Or for debugging was just the docking box enough? This is amazing, thanks for finding it!
@_Davidsmith One minor callout is since the dock is mostly designed to flash software, trying to interact with the device is a little weird (as moving the device a few CM off will cause it to disconnect), one might have to 3D print a mount so the watch can be fixed in the optimal position for connectivity without worrying about moving the watch disconnects it.
@khaost Amazing, I've ordered one and can't wait to give it a try.
Quentin Zervaas@_Davidsmith @khaost where do you order it?
@_Davidsmith @khaost yea I could only find a couple of Chinese sellers for about $900 AUD

@[email protected] I think there are two from China, both is using the same solution (STM 60GHz wireless USB)â¨â¨https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808441010285.html?src=google&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21USD%21239.00%21234.22%21%21%21%21%21%40%2112000052981668512%21ppc%21%21%21&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa https://www.mfcbox.com/shop/ibus-x-tool-for-apple-watch-s7-s8-s9-ultra-and-ultra2/
@_Davidsmith FYI I ended up getting a cheap Apple Watch clip and some rubber bands so I can use the watch without worrying it lose connection.
@khaost Oh nice, mine is arriving today (very excited to try it out). My current plan is to dig around in my drawer of old watch straps and see if I can modify/adjust one of them to attach it to the block.
