  I think you simply need to disable bitcode setting in your xcode:

  for now I don't know if gideros will work with bitcode mode or not.
  don't have xcode 7 and don't won't to upgrade just yet, because it is a release machine and if I mess up something, you will be left without new Gideros releases
  
  But if anyone can build gideros with bitcode enabled please let me know if it works for you or not, then I can try to upgrade

  Oh yes and one important thing, if we move gideros to bitcode enabled, then it won't be possible to use it in older xcodes before xcode 7, so this is also something we should consider

  Thanks for your reply. I am experimenting with the Apple Watch so I've updated all to Xcode 7.0, iOS 9.0 and WatchOS 2.0. I can't go back Maybe a Guideros Apple Watch game in the future :-)

  Yes unfortunately for apple watch you need to leave bitcode enabled.
  
  But if you want to export gideros only game, then feel free to disable that option for your xcode project, it should work with your xcode 7

  First I will read the info from your bitcode link. Bitcode is quiet new to me.

  Disabling bitcode works great. Still there are a lot of warnings (51).

  Does this mean Gideros can be used to export WatchOS games with bitcode enabled?

  Unfortunately I think no
  The problem is that we need to compile gideros libraries with bitcode enabled to be able to run it on watch (at least I've read somewhere that bitcode is mandatory for apple watch) but it would mean everyone should use xcode 7 as gideros won't work on xcode 6 anymore.

  No Apple TV under Xcode 6. You need Xcode 7 (as far as I understand.)

  Would it be an issue for Gideros to require XCode 7? I tend to use the latest version of XCode. Since the software is free, why not?

  Given bitcode seems to crash on tvOS Gideros apps, I then tried it on iPhone for test purposes but of course it won't even compile correctly because the Gideros iOS libs are not bitcode enabled yet ...only the tvOS ones (which crash).

  ld: bitcode bundle could not be generated because '/Temp/BirdTV2/Bird Animation/Bird Animation/libgideros.a(refptr.o)' was built without full bitcode. All object files and libraries for bitcode must be generated from Xcode Archive or Install build for architecture armv7

  I think we are all going to have to move to bitcode in 2016 when Apple make it mandatory across all devices.
