error: module file's minimum deployment target is ios8.3 v8.3

Question

All attempts to import a dynamic framework in an Xcode playground yield the following error:

error: module file\'s minimum deployment target is ios8.3 v8.3
<         


        

Answer 1

This error might also crop up if you're unit testing. So in addition to what @Tony and @Allreadyhome has suggested, do the following:

• With your test target selected, go to 'Build Settings'
• Search for 'iOS Deployment target' at the top search bar.
• Change the value for the iOS Deployment Target accordingly, (in the context of this question, you will change the deployment target to 8.0)

And you should be good.

Answer 2

As mentioned by Tony you have to

1. Set the iOS Deployment Target to 8.0

If using Pods the further step you may need to do:

2. Go into the Pods dependancies and change the deployment targets to 8.0 also.

In my case, I had to change the deployment target on each of my pods to 8.0 as they were all on 8.3.

Answer 3

I had this problem when the minimum deployment target of a select few dependencies was set to a more recent iOS version than main targets minimum deployment target.

Answer 4

1) Goto, Target -> General -> deployment Info

2) set the deployment Target as the one being prompted in the error message(8.3 in your case).

3) product -> clean

4) product -> Build

Answer 5

I had the same issue when i downloaded a framework tutorial with ios 12 & my sdk has to have ios 11.4. I set the iOS Deployment Target to the version I needed(11.4) and updated the Pods dependancies also. But missed a few. So, then I did a search with the version that i wanted to change (that is 12.0). It just lists everything that has the version number (target, project, podspec, pods). Changing everyone of those (to 11.4 in my case), solved it.

Answer 6

I've encountered error:

Module file's minimum deployment target is ios9.2 v9.2

After I changed the iOS deployment target to 8.0 for my PROJECT. The project is created by Xcode 7.2, with 'Include Unit Tests' and 'Include UI Tests' checked.

Because of the XCUIApplication() requires iOS 9.0+, to fix the error, just change the deployment target of UI Tests to 9.0 or above, and leaves 8.0 for other targets.
