I am creating a sample that I create with cli 8.5.3 and in this application the HMR does not work on ios. To test this I have done the following.

A fix is in @nativescript/[email protected] - should be released in a runtime patch soon.

fixed by NativeScript/ios@9a7c738#diff-cd4e01be511d764ce88fc05a06fc5e8b0f652c7a3d2e0487aef990850702cfcaR244-R253

I tested the 8.5.2-alpha.2 and still doesn't work for me, it only works with the --no-hmr parameter, which is not convenient.

[rigor789]

release: 8.5.2

should work as before. If the app never worked with hmr in the past, this won't change that because that's not a runtime level issue. (vue2 for example doesn't work well with hmr, but vue3 beta works quite well).

Related? ns run ios crashes on evert otherHMR update. Running ns run ios --no-hmr does not, but causes a full app reload on each update.

I'm noticing a similar issue with the latest CLI version (8.6.3). Seems like relevant file changes are detected and I get the Refreshing application on device... log, but the actual change isn't reflected in the simulator screen.
