URL Filter Network Extension
Hello team, I am trying to find out a way to block urls in the chrome browser if it is found in local blocked list cache. I found URL Filter Network very much suitable for my requirement. But I see at multiple places that this solution is only for Enterprise level or MDM or supervised device. So can I run this for normal user ? as my targeting audience would be bank users. One more thing how can I test this in development environment if we need supervised devices and do we need special entitlement ? When trying to run sample project in the simulator then getting below error

UITab memory leak
I have the following view hierarchy in my app: [UINavigationController] -> [MainViewController] -> [MyTabBarController] -> [DashboardViewController] In my MainViewController I have a button that pushes the MyTabBarController onto the navigation controllers stack. In the tab bar controller I only have one tab in this example showing the DashboardViewController. That all works fine, and when I tap the back button on MyTabBarController, everything works fine and the MainViewController is shown again. The UI works exactly how I want it, but when I load up the 'Debug Memory Graph' view, I can see that my DashboardViewController is still in memory and it seems the UITab has a reference to it. The MyTabBarController is NOT in memory anymore. MyTabBarController is very simple: class MyTabBarController: UITabBarController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.mode = .tabSidebar var allTabs:[UITab] = [] let mainTab = UITab(title: "Dashboard", image: UIImage(systemName: "chart.pie"), identifier: "dashboard", viewControllerProvider: { _ in return UINavigationController(rootViewController: DashboardViewController()) }) allTabs.append(mainTab) setTabs(allTabs, animated: false) } } And the DashboardViewController is empty: class DashboardViewController: UIViewController { } The only reason I created as a seperate class in this example is so I can easily see if it's visible in the memory debug view. I have uploaded the simple sample app to GitHub: https://github.com/fwaddle/TabbarMemoryLeakCheck Anyone have any suggestions? Here is a screen grab of the memory debug view showing the UITab having a reference to the DashboardViewController even though MyTabBarController has been dealloc'd:

Annoying popup window in Xcode Previews when the initial controller of the main storyboard is a macOS window
I started a project targeting macOS and used Storyboard app lifecycle. I also used Xcode Previews in this project. If I: Keep the entry point of the main storyboard to a window controller. (as default setup in macOS), Turn the Xcode window into full-screen, That window controller would pop up its window every time Xcode Previews refreshes. I tested in Xcode 26.3 RC and many versions before.

My App stuck in Waiting for Review since 5 feb 2026
Hello, I submitted my app for review on February 5 at 1:53 PM, and it is still currently showing as “Waiting for Review.” I understand that App Store reviews can take time; however, I’ve noticed that my recent submissions have been taking around 10–12 days before the review process begins. I wanted to check if there might be any specific issue or reason for this delay. Historically, my apps have only had minor review feedback (for example, small metadata or description adjustments), and no major compliance issues. For initial reviews of new versions, the waiting time seems significantly longer than expected. I would appreciate any information or guidance you can provide regarding this. Thank you for your support. Best regards, Raj

CallKit requestTransaction error code 2
Hello, In production, a large number of users experience outgoing call reporting fails with the following error: com.apple.CallKit.error.requesttransaction Code=2 The iOS version doesn't matter, errors are present in v15-26 Details My CXProvider held as a global singleton, so it’s unlikely to be deinited. There is no explicit call to CXProvider.invalidate() in the app. If I manually invalidate the CXProvider, I observe the expected failure when trying to create an outgoing call (com.apple.CallKit.error.requesttransaction error 2). However, If I recreate the CXProvider after the error, outgoing calls are reported correctly. Many users trigger the providerDidReset delegate method (CXProviderDelegate) before this error. According to the documentation, providerDidReset can be called by the system, and we are supposed to end all active calls, but the documentation doesn't suggest recreating the CXProvider. Question Should I recreate CXProvider after providerDidReset and forget about that, or could this error be caused by something else?

SwiftUI View Stops Updating When Using @Environment - Xcode 26
Hi all - i'm encountering a strange issue since updating to Xcode 26.0.1. It seems that any SwiftUI Views that have an :ObservedObject property that contains @Published properties, and use those properties inside the View, no longer update when those properties are updated when the view also has an @Environment property. If I remove the @Environment property and any usage of it, the view updates correctly. The specific environment property i'm using is .safeAreaInsets, like so: @Environment(\.safeAreaInsets) private var safeAreaInsets Is this a recognised bug in the latest iOS 26 SDK? Thanks

Any (developer) option to override log quarantine?
We recently migrated our entire product to Apple Unified Logging due to the various benefits it provides. However we immediately started hitting the "log quarantine" problem ("QUARANTINED DUE TO HIGH LOGGING VOLUME"). This is partly because we are indeed over logging in a few cases (which we have to work on fixing), but also partly because it's a complicated product with potentially hundreds of libraries, and some of the code can legitimately be very busy. For example we have a system extension that's implemented both as a NetworkExtension client and an EndpointSecurity client, if we were to log decent information about each network or file system event so we can troubleshoot something, they are bound to be high volume logs. Now when our app is running in a normal user environment, this is not a problem. We can disable certain heavy log levels, or at least disable persisting for certain logs (one of the benefits of Apple Unified Logging we really like is that it allows very flexible controls, log config command, OSLogPreferences, configuration profile, we can employ whatever that suits a specific case). But ultimately, the question is what if we end up with a troubleshooting case we don't know exactly where a problem is so we just need the full logs at debug level? And not only just enabled, but because we might not know when the issue can happen either we also need to persist the full set of logs for as long as possible? We will start hitting log quarantine again. Granted this is a very extreme case, but if worst comes to worst, how can we even do that with Apple Unified Logging? Is there an option that allows us to override the quarantine, if but temporarily? I've searched a few relevant forum posts, some of which described log quarantine but no one had mentioned any solution for it (besides having to stop logging so much from the app but as I explained we do have legitimate cases where log volume can still be huge). I've also read The Eskimo's "Your Friend the System Log" and browsed some of the troubleshooting config profiles provided by Apple hoping to discover some hidden payloads but found none so far. There is an OSLogRateLimit environment variable that I noticed if I run a launchctl print system/<a-launch-daemon-lable> and it's usually 64. Is this something relevant? And knowing Apple it's probably something that can't be tampered with?

Membership renewal
Hello. My developer membership is expired. I cannot renew because the renewal option/button does not appears in any device. A banner tells me: "Any apps you had on the App Store are no longer available for download and you can no longer access membership benefits. If you’d like to renew your membership to reinstate your apps and membership benefits, open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts.If you agreed to the Paid Applications Agreement, you’ll need to agree to it again after renewal in the Agreements, Tax and Banking section of App Store Connect." However, there's no "Renew" to tap or click anywhere in the app nor in the web. Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Error: Invalid call to browser.storage.local.set(). Disk I/O error.
Hi, after upgrading MacOS (MB Air M1 Version 26.2 (25C56)) & Safari (Version 26.2 (21623.1.14.11.9)) to latest versions, we are experiencing a new bug occurring with our web extension (Click & Read) on local storage writing and getting this error : Invalid call to browser.storage.local.set().

This doesn't happen on other browsers (chromium, Firefox). export const setLocalStorage = async (value: object) => { try { await browser.storage.local.set(value); } catch (error) { console.error("[Click & Read] Error setting local storage", error); } };

iOS 26 beta 8 – AlarmKit – Custom sounds in Library/Sounds do not play
I put a test.mp3 (30 sec) file into the App Bundle. I scheduled an AlarmKit alarm with the file name test.mp3. The custom sound plays ✅ I copied the file from the App Bundle to Library/Sounds/test2.mp3. I scheduled an AlarmKit alarm with the file name test2.mp3. Instead of playing the custom sound, it falls back to the default sound ❌ According to the documentation, sounds placed in Library/Sounds should be playable: I filed report FB19779004 on August 20, but haven’t received any response yet. This functionality is critical for our use case, so could you please let me know whether this is expected to be fixed soon, or if I’m misunderstanding the intended behavior?

How to visualize AR-dependent app if not supported on Simulator for Swift Student Challenge?
Recently, applications for the Swift Student Challenge opened up. I noticed, that when selected "where to run your app" (mine was developed in Xcode 26), and you select Xcode26, there is a note underneath it that basically says all Xcode projects will be run on the simulator. What if my project is dependent on AR? How would I let the judges test my submission?

SwiftData + CloudKit: BGSystemTaskScheduler Code=8
Hi everyone, On macOS 26.4 beta (with Xcode 26.4 beta), I’m seeing the following console messages in a brand new SwiftData + CloudKit template project (no custom logic added, fresh CloudKit container): updateTaskRequest called for a pre-running task com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.activity.export.F9EE783D-7521-4EC2-B42C-9FD1F29BA5C4 updateTaskRequest called for an already running/updated task com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.activity.export.F9EE783D-7521-4EC2-B42C-9FD1F29BA5C4 Error updating background task request: Error Domain=BGSystemTaskSchedulerErrorDomain Code=8 "(null)" These messages appear: When CloudKit is enabled Occasionally on app launch Often when bringing the app back to the foreground (Cmd-Tab away and back) Even with zero additional SwiftData logic They do not appear when CloudKit is disabled. This behavior is reproducible on a completely new project with a fresh CloudKit container. Questions: What exactly do these messages indicate? Is BGSystemTaskScheduler Code=8 expected in this context? Are these safe to ignore? Is this a known change in logging behavior in macOS 26.4 beta? Additionally, in a larger project I’ve observed SwiftData crashes and initially suspected these logs might be related. However, since the issue reproduces in a fresh template project, I’m unsure whether this is simply verbose beta logging or something more serious. Any clarification would be appreciated. Filed as FB21993521.

Control Center widget won't show snippet view
Has anyone been able to create a Control Center widget that opens a snippet view? There are stock Control Center widgets that do this, but I haven't been able to get it to work. Here's what I tried: struct SnippetButton: ControlWidget { var body: some ControlWidgetConfiguration { StaticControlConfiguration( kind: "xxx.xxx.snippetWidget" ) { ControlWidgetButton(action: SnippetIntent()) { Label("Show Snippet", systemImage: "map.fill") } } .displayName(LocalizedStringResource("Show Snippet")) .description("Show a snippet.") } } struct SnippetIntent: ControlConfigurationIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Show a snippet" static var description = IntentDescription("Show a snippet with some text.") @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog & ShowsSnippetView { return .result(dialog: IntentDialog("Hello!"), view: SnippetView()) } } struct SnippetView: View { var body: some View { Text("Hello!") } }

Getting a list of deleted CloudKit records with an expired change token
Usually, when you call fetchRecordZoneChanges with the previous change token, you get a list of the record ID’s that have been deleted since your last fetch. But if you get a changeTokenExpired error because it‘s been too long since you last fetched, you have to call fetch again without a token. For my specific application, I still need to know, though, if any records have been deleted since my last sync. How can I get that information if I no longer have a valid change token?

Scheduled events reach threshold almost immediately on iOS 26.2
Hi, we are developing a screen time management app. The app locks the device after it was used for specified amount of time. After updating to iOS 26.2, we noticed a huge issue: the events started to fire (reach the threshold) in the DeviceActivityMonitorExtension prematurely, almost immediately after scheduling. The only solution we've found is to delete the app and reboot the device, but the effect is not lasting long and this does not always help. Before updating to iOS 26, events also used to sometimes fire prematurely, but rescheduling the event often helped. Now the rescheduling happens almost every second and the events keep reaching the threshold prematurely. Can you suggest any workarounds for this issue?
