The icon in Xcode says “Build and Run”. How do I change it to “Build and Debug”
I read that if you use “Build and Run” then it does extra work to optimize the code.

“I read that if you use “Build and Run” then it does extra work to optimize the code.”
No – this is completely wrong – Release builds typically have optimisation enabled and Debug builds don’t. This has nothing to do with how you run the program (i.e. Run vs Debug), it just depends on which configuration you are building.
