Add the watch target

If your app uses any CocoaPods plugins, open the workspace, not the project:

open ios/Runner.xcworkspace

Create the watchOS app target

1. Add a new target

   Choose File → New → Target…, then select the watchOS tab → App → Next.

2. Fill in the target options

   Field	Value
   Product Name	CarpWatch (any name works, this guide uses CarpWatch)
   Interface	SwiftUI
   Language	Swift
   Project	Runner
   Embed in Companion Application	Runner

3. Activate the scheme

   When Xcode offers to activate the new scheme, choose Activate.

4. Set the deployment target

   Select the CarpWatch Watch App target → General → Minimum Deployments → watchOS 8.0 or later.

Xcode creates:

• a group CarpWatch Watch App containing CarpWatchApp.swift, ContentView.swift and assets;
• a target and a scheme of the same name;
• an Embed Watch Content build phase on the Runner target.

Set the bundle identifiers and signing

The watch app's bundle identifier must be the iOS app's identifier plus exactly one component:

Xcode normally gets this right when you use Embed in Companion Application. Verify it:

• under the watch target → Signing & Capabilities → Bundle Identifier;
• in the build setting INFOPLIST_KEY_WKCompanionAppBundleIdentifier on the watch target, which must point at the iOS bundle identifier.

Set the same Team on both targets and let Xcode manage signing. With manual signing, you need a second provisioning profile for the watch app's identifier.

Link the AWARE framework into the watch target

The AWARE framework ships inside carp_aware_package as pre-compiled binaries. Xcode already resolved them along with the plugin, so you only need to link them into the watch target.

1. Select the watch target

   CarpWatch Watch App → General.

2. Add the framework

   Under Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content, press +, pick carp-aware-watch from the list of package products, and choose Add.

3. Leave it on Do Not Embed

   The binaries are static libraries and require no embedding or signing.

This gives the watch target two AWARE watch modules, com_awareframework_ios_sensor_applewatch_shared and com_awareframework_ios_sensor_applewatch_watchOS, including the other packages they require.
