Flutter: Runner.app/Info.plist does not exist. The Flutter "Thin Binary" build phase must run after "Copy Bundle Resources"
Solution 1
Solution
Go to Runner(target app) > Build Phases > Run Script
and update the run script with the one below.
/bin/sh "$FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh" build.
Also, verify that Runner(target app) > Build Phases > Thin Binary
contains below scripts as suggested in XCode 11.4 Support by the flutter team.
/bin/sh "$FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh" embed
/bin/sh "$FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh" thin
Solution 2
In Xcode Menu, choose "Product" > "Clean Build Folder".
Run the project again, it solved the issue.
Solution 3
There are 2 steps to fix the issue after turn on your terminal window:
-You must navigate to your project folder that you already build with Flutter -Then you will run as below :
-
$ flutter clean
-
$ flutter pub get
Then you build with the IOS simulator again. The issue will be solved.
Reason: You have a clash between Xcode versions (old-new) in your app folder. You should clean the old one first and then rebuild it with the new one.

I went with @Dhaval Kansara's suggestion and the error was still there. But after a clean build the problem went away.
Solution 5
flutter clean
in the project folder solved it for me

After upgrading flutter to flutter 1.22.4. I am getting the below error while building the Xcode Project.
Runner.app/Info.plist does not exist. The Flutter "Thin Binary" build phase must run after "Copy Bundle Resources".
Already tried the below options:
- Flutter clean and run.
- Removed derived data, clean project, and rebuild.
-
- rm -Rf ios/Pods
- rm ios/Podfile
- rm -Rf ios/.symlinks
- rm -Rf ios/Flutter/Flutter.podspec
- rm -Rf ios/Flutter/Flutter.framework
- flutter run
After trying all the above options still getting the same error.

salman over 3 yearsthis helped me when i have created a new flutter project

gmdev over 3 yearsThis just happened to me after creating a new Flutter project. I went to Xcode first to verify that the script was correct (mentioned in other answer). The script was correct in Xcode, so a clean build just worked for me.

g212gs about 3 yearsFYI: I tried with Xcode 12.4 & only after clean the project, it successfully build. Note: in Runner(target app) > Build Phases > Thin Binary ->> "only single line that contains 'thin' present" i.e. "line that contains 'embed'" is not required/present.

Henry about 3 yearsI had the same issue. Best solution is to simply flutter clean in the project folder
