Fixing [SceneConfiguration] Info.plist contained no UIScene configuration dictionary error in Xcode

It seems Xcode 14.2 introduced an annoying little error when running your app in the Simulator. The error reads: [SceneConfiguration] Info.plist contained no UIScene configuration dictionary (looking for configuration named "(no name)"). It would appear three times in a row for me.

Here’s how you can fix it:

  1. Select your topmost application folder in the Project Navigator.
  2. Select the Info tab at the top.
  3. Under Custom iOS Target Properties, you will find Application Scene Manifest.
  4. Click ⊕ to the right of that and select Scene Configuration to add it.
  5. That’s it!

If you try running your app in the Simulator, you should no longer see those pesky errors. Yay!
