Thank you CORY BOHON, who created the following tutorial:

I'll summary steps I have done:

1. Add StartAtLogin project

2. Import StartAtLoginHelper into StartAtLogin project

3. In StartAtLogin Build Phase, add Copy Files is StartAtLoginHelper with below config:

   3.1. Destination: Wrapper

   3.2. Subpath: Contents/Library/LoginItems

4. In StartAtLoginHelper, choose info.plist, add row "Application is background only" = YES

5. In StartAtLoginHelper Build Settings, change Skip Install in Release = YES

6. In StartAtLoginHelper, implement helper code

   NSArray *pathComponents = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] pathComponents]; pathComponents = [pathComponents subarrayWithRange:NSMakeRange(0, [pathComponents count] - 4)]; NSString *path = [NSString pathWithComponents:pathComponents]; [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchApplication:path]; [NSApp terminate:nil];

NSArray *a = nil;

7. In StartAtLogin, implement function call helper app

   SMLoginItemSetEnabled((__bridge CFStringRef)@"com.giauhuynh.StartAtLoginHelper", sender.state == NSOnState);

8. Code sign in + enable App Sandbox

9. Archive + Copy app to Applications folder and run
