Before you install the SDKs, understand the external components and extensions used with the SDKs and ensure your devices meet all requirements:
Apple iOS
The UI SDK requires iOS 15.0 or higher. The Core SDK requires iOS 13.0 or higher.
Apple Xcode
To develop using either the UI SDK or the Core SDK, install Xcode (version 12.3 or later) and the Command Line Tools for Xcode.
Apple Swift Package Manager
If you install the SDK using Swift Package Manager (SPM), use version 1.4.0 or higher.
note: The CocoaPods main trunk will be read-only by December 2026. When this happens, Salesforce will no longer be able to deploy apps for iPhones. Don’t use CocoaPods to install the SDK; instead, use Swift Package Manager. If you installed the SDK in the past using CocoaPods, migrate from CocoaPods to Swift Package Manager to ensure you can continue to receive the latest SDK releases. See the CocoaPods Trunk Read-only Plan for more information about CocoaPods’ read-only transition plan.
