Go to info.plist and delete required device capabilities or add all neccessary architectures like arm7 and arm64 or else which your device required.

Hope this will help :)

arm7 and arm64 are not capabilities but architectures and are inside the "Build Settings" tab, not the "Capabilities" – David Ansermot May 18 '16 at 12:04

You have to Add arm7 and arm64 to your Required device capabilities under the .plist file. It is require to run your app on Your Device. It's require to support the processor of your device. Simulator doesn't contain any processor So it will run your application but Device can not.

Arm7 is for A6 processors and arm64 is for A7 processors so its based on your requirement. – Dhruv Khatri May 18 '16 at 13:00

In your application capabilities (.plist file in Required device capabilities), you have set to use one that is not available on the device you are using.

If you give more details about the device / OS version, I might be able to give you a more detailled answer.

Check your .plist file in "required device capabilities". Maybe you have an item that is not properly entered and Xcode is detecting it as an actual capability to have.

Check your info plist's Required Device Capabilities. Probably you have a typo there.

Try removing the Scheme from the scheme setting and add it once again it solved my issue.

Open your info.plist and delete the arm64 from "Required device capabilities" and it will work.
