According to Apple’s guidelines, bitcode have been deprecated with Xcode 14, released September 12th 2022:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-14-release-notes
Starting with Xcode 14, bitcode is no longer required for watchOS and tvOS applications, and the App Store no longer accepts bitcode submissions from Xcode 14.
Xcode no longer builds bitcode by default and generates a warning message if a project explicitly enables bitcode: “Building with bitcode is deprecated. Please update your project and/or target settings to disable bitcode.”
The capability to build with bitcode will be removed in a future Xcode release.IPAs that contain bitcode will have the bitcode stripped before being submitted to the App Store. Debug symbols can only be downloaded from App Store Connect / TestFlight for existing bitcode submissions and are no longer available for submissions made with Xcode 14. (86118779)
Considering Apple has stated that “the capability to build with bitcode will be removed in a future Xcode release“ and “IPAs that contain bitcode will have the bitcode stripped before being submitted to the App Store” (from the release note reported above), Scandit has decided to remove bitcode support starting with SDK version 6.15.0, released November 7th 2022:
