Can't remove today view extension from iOS

Question

I tried to remove an iOS8 today view extension from my iOS App in Xcode6, but somehow the extension is still built and always appearing on the device. I removed both the extensions files from the project as well as the build target. I also removed the application multiple times but the widget is still always copied whenever I build the application.

Answer 1

If you want to keep the sourcecode and only remove the today widget:

• go to your app target into your project file
• select General -> Embedded binaries
• remove the TodayWidgetName.appex file with the minus button
• do a clean

If you compile or archive you should not see any longer the today widget appearing in the iOS notification center.

Answer 2

I finally found a solution: in the menu go to Product > Clean and the extensions that are not used or built anymore are gone!
