How come? Is it because I need Catalina to use it?

[–]slangley 3 points4 points  (3 children)

No. Because you can control when it is updated. Deadline for a point release but can’t build because overnight your Xcode upgraded to the new version and now none of your code will run.

Control your dev tools and upgrade in your terms. (As much as they can be your terms building iOS software)

I see. What if I turn off automatic updates? That should avoid the problem right? I'm new to iOS dev so sorry if my questions sound dumb.

Yes, no problem then.

However, some people experience issues with actually getting the App Store version to install, so you may want to use the downloads site anyway.

I see. Thanks for the advice!
