IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set to 8.0 Xcode 12 (Flutter)

Question

I run my Flutter project in Android Studio, pod installation goes well but Xcode build fails at the end every time like 20/30 steps first of complete the whole build. The weird fact is that Android Studio says :

Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code

But when I open the workspace with Xcode I see that my target in Runner has iOS deployment target 14.0 so I don't understand, it should be set to 14 but actually it's 8. Flutter generated Podfile, Podfile.lock and Pods through flutter run I prefer to let Flutter handle Pod generation and installation without using pod init, pod install or editing Podfile.

Answer 1

In addition to what Akif said, here's a running list of reasons why this error could be showing up for you:

1. Set the MinimumOSversion to 9.0 in ios/Flutter/AppFrameworkInfo.plist
2. In Xcode, ensure that the iOS deployment target at Runner -> Project -> Runner is set to 9.0
3. In Xcode, ensure that the Deployment Info in Runner -> Targets -> Runner is set to iOS 9.0
4. Double check that your GoogleService-Info.plist is there and was added via Xcode (not copy/pasted into the directory via Finder for example)
5. Uncomment the #platform :iOS, '9.0' line in your ios/Podfile

Then, run the following in your terminal to build with a fresh state:

flutter clean \
        && rm ios/Podfile.lock pubspec.lock \
        && rm -rf ios/Pods ios/Runner.xcworkspace \
        && flutter build ios

Answer 2

replace this code of pod file:

post_install do |installer|
 installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
  target.build_configurations.each do |config|
   config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '9.0'
  end
 end
end

Answer 3

You need to set MinimumOSVersion to 9.0 in ios/Flutter/AppFrameworkInfo.plist. It will look like this:

  <key>MinimumOSVersion</key>
  <string>9.0</string>

Answer 4

Error is self-explanatory that deployment target is missed for application.

This will be added in two places inside Xcode, check the below screenshot where iOS Deployment Target is mention.

1. Runner

2.Pod

Answer 5

If after trying all the solutions above, your code is still not working, especially after an update/upgrade...

Just check out your dart version and also check out for null safety packages...

I just solved mine after battling with errors for days by properly migrating my codes to null safety.

Answer 6

enter image description here

1. open xcode
2. change Project Document - Project format - Xcode 8.0-Compatible
3. flutter clean, flutter pub get an flutter build ios

Answer 7

Try run in android if it's giving any error thats much fixable. it remember me to Delete my "dart.html" import which i dont use then this error fixed too. But before i did every solution in this page good to remember.
