iOS simulator 18.4 cannot add extension to safari

I'm testing web extension to safari on iOS. I've built and added extension application to simulator, but on safari settings shows no extensions. I'm using Xcode 16.3 beta 2 with Simulator iOS 18.4 (22E5216h), tested on iPhone 16.

Is this a new project or one that worked without issues in earlier iOS and Xcode releases? Does building the project to a physical device work and this is only an issue with the iOS simulator?

Can you file feedback at http://feedbackassistant.apple.com and include the sample project alongside a video showing the issue? Once you do, please share the feedback ID here so we can look into this further.

I tried on existing one, but to test if that works at all I created new empty project and it didn't work either.

There are no reaction within a week and I tested new version with Xcode 16.3 beta 3, problem remains

Tested on Xcode 16.3 RC1, the same problem persists

Same issue in Xcode 16.3 release 16E140

It happens both on new and existing projects. Extensions load fine in the iOS simulator 18.3 even on Xcode 16.3. So the issue seems to be specifically related to iOS 18.4.

Thank you for the reports. We are aware of the issue impacting development and testing of Safari Web Extensions while using theiOS 18.4, iPadOS 18.4, and visionOS 2.4 simulators. As a workaround, please test your extensions using physical devices.
