Hide strange unwanted Xcode logs

Question

When using the Xcode 8+ and creating a new blank project, the following logs appear when running the application:

2016-06-13 16:33:34.406093 TestiOS10[8209:1         


        

Answer 1

In Xcode 10 the OS_ACTIVITY_MODE variable with disable (or default) value also turns off the NSLog no matter what.

So if you want to get rid of the console noise but not of your own logs, you could try the good old printf("") instead of the NSLog since it is not affected by the OS_ACTIVITY_MODE = disable.

But better check out the new os_log API here.
