PR Author Checklist

• I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
• I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
  • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
  • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
  • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
  • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
  • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
  • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
• I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
• I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
  • Android / native
  • Android / Chrome
  • iOS / native
  • iOS / Safari
  • MacOS / Chrome / Safari
  • MacOS / Desktop
• I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
• I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
  • I verified that any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
  • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
  • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
  • I verified any copy / text shown in the product is localized by adding it to src/languages/* files and using the translation method
    • If any non-english text was added/modified, I verified the translation was requested/reviewed in #expensify-open-source and it was approved by an internal Expensify engineer. Link to Slack message:
  • I verified all numbers, amounts, dates and phone numbers shown in the product are using the localization methods
  • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is correct English and approved by marketing by adding the Waiting for Copy label for a copy review on the original GH to get the correct copy.
  • I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
  • I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
• If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
• I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
• I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
• I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
• I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.js or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
• I verified that if a function's arguments changed that all usages have also been updated correctly
• If a new component is created I verified that:
  • A similar component doesn't exist in the codebase
  • All props are defined accurately and each prop has a /** comment above it */
  • The file is named correctly
  • The component has a clear name that is non-ambiguous and the purpose of the component can be inferred from the name alone
  • The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
  • For Class Components, any internal methods passed to components event handlers are bound to this properly so there are no scoping issues (i.e. for onClick={this.submit} the method this.submit should be bound to this in the constructor)
  • Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
  • All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
  • The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
• If any new file was added I verified that:
  • The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
• If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
  • A similar style doesn't already exist
  • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(themeColors.componentBG)
• If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
• If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
• If a new page is added, I verified it's using the ScrollView component to make it scrollable when more elements are added to the page.
• If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.
• I have checked off every checkbox in the PR author checklist, including those that don't apply to this PR.

[Julesssss]

Weird that they don't use 14.1.0 as the naming convention

[luacmartins]

It's Apple lol

[AndrewGable]

Does this 100% fix the problem? Are we set to build to the "latest" SDK or is there some other setting to build against 16.1?

ONLY iOS native code was modified. I successfully build from both terminal and XCode:

[Julesssss]

Does this 100% fix the problem? Are we set to build to the "latest" SDK or is there some other setting to build against 16.1?

As far as I can tell, we don't need to update the min or targeted SDK version. I've built from cmd and XCode sucessfully.

[Julesssss]

@AndrewGable oh wait I see your point. This isn't bumping the actual SDK version.

@luacmartins is this PR simply a prerequisite to that wider change? This quote makes me think this is the case:

...must be built with the iOS 16.1 SDK or later, included in Xcode 14.1 or later.

[AndrewGable]

Yeah I think we need to update the "deployment target"?

[luacmartins]

@AndrewGable @Julesssss I update the deployment target as described. Thank you both!

Changing the deployment target also added some changes to font encoding, but I'm not sure why.

Additionally, I'm curious on why we didn't update the deployment target in this PR that solved the same issue last year. 🤔

[AndrewGable]

Additionally, I'm curious on why we didn't update the deployment target in #8738 that solved the same issue last year. 🤔

I agree with this confusion and I am actually thinking maybe updating this is not required 🧐

I'm just curious how we can verify. Maybe we can revert back to just building with the latest XCode, CP it to staging and see if we get the email from Apple?

[Julesssss]

@luacmartins that is a good point, I am confused too. it looks like we missed it last time around.

However, we updated the CI deployment script. So the deployed build was updated and met the criteria, so it wasn't flagged as an issue by Apple?

[Julesssss]

I think the current changes are correct.

Last time we just updated the CI deploy version, but forgot to change it for local development. As far as Apple knew, we were using the correct version for development, because the CI deployed version was correct.

Thankfully it didn't cause any issues, but we should keep the versions aligned -- so that any issues with a specific version are detected by developers.

I am not 100% sure, but that is my best guess at what is going on here 😄

[AndrewGable]

I'd propose to test this in a separate CP, but changes look good 👍

[Julesssss]

I retested, now that our dev build version is finally correct.

I still think this is the correct explanation for why the mismatch wasn't picked up on by Apple.

⚠️ ⚠️ Heads up! This pull request has the CP Staging label ⚠️ ⚠️
If you applied the CP Staging label before the PR was merged, the PR will be be immediately deployed to staging even if the open StagingDeployCash deploy checklist is locked.
However if you applied the CP Staging after the PR was merged it's possible it won't be CP'ed automatically. If you need it to be CP'ed to staging, tag a member of @Expensify/mobile-deployers to CP it manually, otherwise you can wait for it to go out with the next deploy.

[Julesssss]

Verified via both npm run ios and building from XCode 👍

[luacmartins]

CP happening here. I'll monitor the inbox for any email form Apple complaining about the SDK version
