I have noticed that my Apple Watch app seems to randomly quit from time to time. It's not crashing and I have not been able to reproduce it in a controlled setting, but have noticed that it seems to only happen when I'm in very high or low temperatures. For instance, I was skiing recently and my app was supposed to stay running the whole time, but often when I would raise my wrist it would be back on the home screen and my app wasn't running. This also happened when I was on the beach on a very hot day. But when I'm testing it at home I can keep it running for hours and it never crashes, which leads me to believe it may have to do with the temperature. Does the OS kill apps when it's running in very high or low temperatures? If so, is there anything I can do to prevent this from occurring? Would doing less things in my app possibly prevent this? For instance, I have a timer, and use a bunch of sensors, would turning those off at times and using less of the display make a difference or does the OS not care what the apps are actually doing? If not, any other ideas? Thanks

Long story short, I had my App and Watch app already uploaded to the app store. However, I needed to add a WatchConnectivity to have App to Watch communication. At the beginning My app bundle id was: com.x My watch bundle id was: com.x.watchkitapp However, while developing Watch Connectivity, I noticed that my Apps are not connected unless I changed it to com.x.watchkitapp -> com.x.watch However after changing it I cannot submit my bundle anymore. I'm getting Asset validation failed error Invalid Bundle Identifier. Attempting to change bundle identifier from com.x.watchkitapp to com.x.watch is disallowed for bundle x.app/Watch/WatchX Watch App.app. (ID: 75a4621a-7e28-411d-a2a7-84674e460656) Any ideas how this could be solved?

After updating to iOS 17.5 & WatchOS 10.5, the didFinish response from WCSessionDelegate does not come when transferring files from iPhone to Watch. It worked normally until 17.4 & 10.4. There is no problem with checking file completion even if a didFinish response is not received, but I think Apple needs to check this issue and update. File transfer is done using the transferFile function of WCSession. The file being transferred is a single file and its size does not exceed 30MB. When you try to transfer Pi, the message below appears in the Xcode log section. -[WCFileStorage persistOutgoingFileTransfer:] error serializing file transfer <WCSessionFileTransfer: 0x300155d60, session file: <WCSessionFile: 0x3001575c0, identifier: 0C8857EC-7D74-4E78-BA28-6C5526DE8949, file: /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/DD797847-DED1-42C0-989F-34CD05825007/tmp/C042D096-F12B-4B50-8792-868475DBBF47.zip, hasMetadata: YES>, transferring: YES> due to Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4866 "Caught exception during archival: This object may only be encoded by an NSXPCCoder.

As TN3135 clearly explains the limitations apple puts on the low level networking, it doesn’t really give a reason. Presumably the power consumption problem. But as the battery technology continues evolving, it could be exciting that apple might loose the restrictions someday. The watch itself is powerful enough to do a lot of sophisticated works, sure it works best with companion apps on iPhone, but even as a standalone device, we can still provide many advanced user experience with low level networking supports. wish apple guys can read it and give a consideration.

I am running two different background modes(not at the same time), 1 with a workout and 1 with a location. I noticed that the app logo appears above the watch face for both background modes but does not show up consistently. I wonder what the significance of the logo showing up above watch face is? Additionally why does it show up sometimes but not others? Thanks

On android there is a way for my app to know when the device has been restarted or powered up after a restart or powering off. I wonder if there is a way to listen for the restart/power up even on the iphone and the Apple Watch?

Hi, I would like to stream live audio (hls) from watch itself, our app can start stream on paired device, but when phone is not near by i want to start streaming on watchos (just like spotify or Apple music app) I watched the 2019 wwdc video about streaming and also looked to the documentation Documentation : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/watchkit/storyboard_support/playing_background_audio I can present the route controller to select output, but for example after selecting Air Podcas, stream did not start.. Here is the code: (I have enabled background mode audio) do { try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(.playback, mode: .default, policy: .longFormAudio, options: []) } catch { print("no audiosession!") } AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().activate(options: []) { success, error in dump(success) dump(error) DispatchQueue.main.async { if let streamURL = moduleItem.media?[0] as? String { dump(streamURL) let asset = AVURLAsset(url: URL(string: streamURL)!, options: nil) let item = AVPlayerItem(asset: asset) let player = AVQueuePlayer(playerItem: item) player.play() } } }

I noticied that my workout session is sometimes being killed by apple when the app is in the background and it seems that the func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didChangeTo toState: HKWorkoutSessionState, from fromState: HKWorkoutSessionState, date: Date) { is only being called when the app comes back into the foreground. I wonder if there is a way for us to get notified when the workout is about to die or has already been killed. Thanks

Hello Apple Developer Forum, I'm reaching out because I've encountered an issue with my app's implementation involving the ScrollView and the digitalCrown, and I'm hoping to find some guidance or assistance from the community. Currently, I'm developing an app where users can navigate through dates using the digitalCrown to change the "$scrollAmount", which then dynamically updates the ScrollView with events corresponding to that date. However, I've run into a problem where the ScrollView is being inadvertently scrolled by the digitalCrown every time it's initiated. Ideally, I would like to disable the digitalCrown's interaction with the ScrollView altogether, so that the ScrollView is only scrolled using touch inputs and not by the digitalCrown. I've tried several approaches to achieve this, but haven't had much success so far. Could anyone please provide some guidance or suggestions on how I can effectively disable the digitalCrown's interaction with the ScrollView while still allowing touch-based scrolling? Any help or insights into this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much in advance for your time and assistance. Best regards, Example code: var body: some View { NavigationView { VStack { HStack{ Text("\(formattedDate(for: scrollAmount, format: lineOne))") .onTapGesture { scrollAmount = 0.0 } } ScrollView{ ForEach(viewModel.events, id: \.event) { viewModelItem in let event = viewModelItem.event VStack { HStack { Text(event.title) } } } } .scrollDisabled(true) } } .focusable(isFocused) .digitalCrownRotation( detent: $scrollAmount, from: -365.0, through: 365.0, by: 1.0, sensitivity: .low, isContinuous: false, isHapticFeedbackEnabled: true) .onChange(of: scrollAmount) { let roundedValue = round(scrollAmount) scrollAmount = roundedValue viewModel.fetchEvents(for: scrollAmount) } } }

Hi, I'm triggering a notification from the audio interruption handler (but also have a debug button set to trigger it manually) and it frequently does not show up. I don't think I have ever seen it show up when the watch face is off. I have created a singleton class to trigger this notification as follows. Note that I use a UUID in the identifier because an old thread here suggests this is necessary, but it makes no difference as far as I can tell. Any ideas? I'd like this notification to be reliable. I'm also surprised that with trigger set to nil, it does not trigger instantaneously. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, -- B. import Foundation import UserNotifications class NotificationSender: NSObject, UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate { static let shared = NotificationSender() override init() { super.init() let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.requestAuthorization(options: [.sound, .badge]) { granted, error in if granted { print("Notification permission granted") } else { print("Notification permission denied") } } center.delegate = self // Define the action to open the app let openAction = UNNotificationAction(identifier: "openAction", title: "Open App", options: [.foreground]) // Add the action to the notification content let category = UNNotificationCategory(identifier: "resumeAudioCategory", actions: [openAction], intentIdentifiers: [], options: []) center.setNotificationCategories([category]) } func sendNotification() { let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() content.title = "Recording Interrupted" content.body = "You will need to restart it manually." content.categoryIdentifier = "resumeAudioCategory" // Create the notification request //let trigger = UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger(timeInterval: 5, repeats: false) let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: "ResumeAudioNotification-\(UUID().uuidString)", content: content, trigger: nil) center.add(request) { error in if let error = error { print("Error adding notification request: \(error)") } } } // Handle notification when the app is in the foreground func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) { // Display the notification while the app is in the foreground completionHandler([.sound, .badge, .banner, .list]) } // Handle notification response func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, didReceive response: UNNotificationResponse, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void) { // Handle the user's response to the notification // For example, navigate to a specific screen in your app completionHandler() } }

I am developing an AppleWatch applet. There is no IOS side, only the Apple Watch side. I want to evoke SIRI on the Apple Watch, then say "Open my software" or a specific sentence, and then my software will be automatically opened.

I am a watchOS 10.0 device, try to open the developer mode, according to the official website to enter the Settings > Privacy > Developer Mode. But I don't see the developer mode option, how do I turn on the developer mode for watchOS 10.0 device?

Good morning, I come to you for a question: When I install my application on my iPhone for the first time, and I install the watch application from the native "Watch" application, the Watch Connectivity function does not work, I have to do the installation from Xcode to the watch for this function to work. Is this normal? if yes, the problem will not arise during a publication? I have the same problem when using watch and iPhone simulators, WatchConnectivity does not work. I am this error code in Xcode: -[WCSession handleIncomingUserInfoWithPairingID:]_block_invoke delegate (null) does not implement session:didReceiveUserInfo:, discarding incoming content Here is the code for the iPhone and the watch: In my iPhone app: import WatchConnectivity let userDefaultsDataVenantWatch = UserDefaults.standard class PhoneDataModel : NSObject, WCSessionDelegate, ObservableObject { static let shared = PhoneDataModel() let session = WCSession.default @Published var TableauSynchroIphoneVersWatch : [String:String] = ["0":"0"] @Published var dataWatchVersIphone: [String:String] = ["":""] override init() { super.init() if WCSession.isSupported() { session.delegate = self session.activate() } else { print("ERROR: Watch session not supported") } } func session(_ session: WCSession, activationDidCompleteWith activationState: WCSessionActivationState, error: Error?) { if let error = error { print("session activation failed with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } } func sessionDidBecomeInactive(_ session: WCSession) { session.activate() } func sessionDidDeactivate(_ session: WCSession) { session.activate() } func session(_ session: WCSession, didReceiveUserInfo userInfo: [String : Any]) { guard let newCount = userInfo["TableauSynchroIphoneWatch"] as?

AFAIK, background execution with Background Tasks framework is all budgeted. E.g., if we try to use it too much, the system would simply stop letting us do it, at least for some time. Is it the same when we do sendMessage from Watch app to iOS app? Is there a chance we may overuse it so that system stops waking up the iOS app? Or I can rely and use sendMessage as often and heavy as I need?

I did a timer that fires every thousandth of a second and it stops after a certain period of time unless I restart the watch and this doesn't happen in the watch simulator so something is wrong with the real watch while the simulator doesn't show this phenomenon. There is definitely a lower software stack bug or the processor cannot handle the load while the Ultra and Ultra 2 have no problems AFAIK.

It's not just me that the watch doesn't show up in Xcode 15.3, Watch 10.4, iOS 17.4.1, right? In Xcode, the Mac and iPhone are connected and displayed, but only the watch is not working. And when I run the complication app, oddly enough, it prompts to install the app on the iPhone device's watch app? It's really strange, isn't it? But the installation doesn't actually happen. It seems like a funny thing with Apple. Does anyone know when this will be fixed?

Wanted to reach out for some assistance with troublshooting my watch app not detecting collision, I have set up a few breakpoints and determined that it is not running the game over struct even if it had detected the collision, I have also tried to generate a log file when a collision is detected and that does not work either. I have considered that the objects may not be on the same layer so they are now in the same zstack.

I currently have an app that is a companion app alongside the iOS app. I wonder if it is possible for me to make this app both a standalone and a companion app. Essentially if someone does not have an iphone they can still use the app. Is this possible?
