Overview

We have developed an IOPCIFamily based custom KEXT to communicate with Thunderbolt interface storage device. This KEXT is working fine with Apple machines with Intel CPUs in all types of machines (iMac, iMac Pro and MacBooks). We tested this KEXT with Apple Silicon M1 machine where we are observing crash for the very first command we send to the Thunderbolt device. We observed that there is difference in number of bits in Physical Address we use for preparing command PRPs. In Intel machines we get 28-Bit Physical Address whereas in M1 we are getting 36-Bit address used for PRPs. We use inTaskWithPhysicalMask api to allocate memory buffer we use for preparing command PRPs. Below are the options we have used for this: options: kIOMemoryPhysicallyContiguous | kIODirectionInOut capacity: 16kb physicalMask: 0xFFFFF000UL (We want 4kb aligned memory) According to below documentation, we have to use inTaskWithPhysicalMask api to get memory below 4gb. https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Darwin/Conceptual/64bitPorting/KernelExtensionsandDrivers/KernelExtensionsandDrivers.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001064-CH227-SW1 Some devices can only handle physical addresses that fit into 32 bits. To the extent that it is possible to use 64-bit addresses you should do so, but for these devices, you can either use IODMACommand or the initWithPhysicalMask method of IOBufferMemoryDescriptor to allocate a bounce buffer within the bottom 4 GB of physical memory. So just want to know what's the difference between Intel and ARM64 architecture with respect to physical memory access. Is there any difference between byte order for physical memory address..?? Crash log is given below: panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe0016e08cd8): "apciec[0:pcic0-bridge]::handleInterrupt: Request address is greater than 32 bits linksts=0x99000001 pcielint=0x00020000 linkcdmsts=0x00000800 (ltssm 0x11=L0)\n" Debugger message: panic Memory ID: 0x6 OS release type: User OS version: 20C69 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 20.2.0: Wed Dec 2 20:40:21 PST 2020; root:xnu-7195.60.75~1/RELEASEARM64T8101 Fileset Kernelcache UUID: 3E6AA74DF723BCB886499A5AAB34FA34 Kernel UUID: 48F71DB3-6C91-3E62-9576-3A1DCEF2B536 iBoot version: iBoot-6723.61.3 secure boot?: YES Paniclog version: 13 KernelCache slide: 0x000000000dbfc000 KernelCache base: 0xfffffe0014c00000 Kernel slide: 0x000000000e73c000 Kernel text base: 0xfffffe0015740000 Kernel text exec base: 0xfffffe0015808000 machabsolutetime: 0x12643a9c5 Epoch Time: sec usec Boot : 0x5fe06736 0x0009afbc Sleep : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Wake : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Calendar: 0x5fe067fd 0x0006569d CORE 0 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015971798 CORE 1 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c5c CORE 2 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c5c CORE 3 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c5c CORE 4 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c60 CORE 5 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c60 CORE 6 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c60 CORE 7 recently retired instr at 0xfffffe0015972c60 Panicked task 0xfffffe166ce9e550: 75145 pages, 462 threads: pid 0: kernel_task Panicked thread: 0xfffffe166d053918, backtrace: 0xfffffe306cb4b6d0, tid: 141 lr: 0xfffffe0015855f8c fp: 0xfffffe306cb4b740 lr: 0xfffffe0015855d58 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4b7b0 lr: 0xfffffe0015977f5c fp: 0xfffffe306cb4b7d0 lr: 0xfffffe0015969914 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4b880 lr: 0xfffffe001580f7e8 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4b890 lr: 0xfffffe00158559e8 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bc20 lr: 0xfffffe00158559e8 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bc90 lr: 0xfffffe0015ff03f8 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bcb0 lr: 0xfffffe0016e08cd8 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bd60 lr: 0xfffffe00166bc778 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4be30 lr: 0xfffffe0015f2226c fp: 0xfffffe306cb4be80 lr: 0xfffffe0015f1e2f4 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bec0 lr: 0xfffffe0015f1f050 fp: 0xfffffe306cb4bf00 lr: 0xfffffe0015818c14 fp: 0x0000000000000000 Kernel Extensions in backtrace: com.apple.driver.AppleEmbeddedPCIE(1.0)[4F37F34B-EE1B-3282-BD8B-00009B954483]@0xfffffe00166b4000->0xfffffe00166c7fff dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleARMPlatform(1.0.2)[5CBA9CD0-E248-38E3-94E5-4CC5EAB96DE1]@0xfffffe0016148000->0xfffffe0016193fff dependency: com.apple.driver.IODARTFamily(1)[88B19766-4B19-3106-8ACE-EC29201F00A3]@0xfffffe0017890000->0xfffffe00178a3fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.9)[5187699D-1DDC-3763-934C-1C4896310225]@0xfffffe0017c48000->0xfffffe0017c63fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOReportFamily(47)[93EC9828-1413-3458-A6B2-DBB3E24540AE]@0xfffffe0017c64000->0xfffffe0017c67fff com.apple.driver.AppleT8103PCIeC(1.0)[35AEB73B-D51E-3339-AB5B-50AC78740FB8]@0xfffffe0016e04000->0xfffffe0016e13fff dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleARMPlatform(1.0.2)[5CBA9CD0-E248-38E3-94E5-4CC5EAB96DE1]@0xfffffe0016148000->0xfffffe0016193fff dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleEmbeddedPCIE(1)[4F37F34B-EE1B-3282-BD8B-00009B954483]@0xfffffe00166b4000->0xfffffe00166c7fff dependency: com.apple.driver.ApplePIODMA(1)[A8EFA5BD-B11D-3A84-ACBD-6DB25DBCD817]@0xfffffe0016b0c000->0xfffffe0016b13fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.9)[5187699D-1DDC-3763-934C-1C4896310225]@0xfffffe0017c48000->0xfffffe0017c63fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOReportFamily(47)[93EC9828-1413-3458-A6B2-DBB3E24540AE]@0xfffffe0017c64000->0xfffffe0017c67fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOThunderboltFamily(9.3.2)[11617399-2987-322D-85B6-EF2F1AD4A794]@0xfffffe0017d80000->0xfffffe0017e93fff Stackshot Succeeded Bytes Traced 277390 (Uncompressed 703968) ** System Information: Apple Silicon M1 BigSur 11.1 Model: Macmini9,1 Any help or suggestion is really appreciated.

I am writing a DriverKit driver for the first that uses the USBSerialDriverKit. The driver its purpose is to expose the device as serial interface (/dev/cu.tetra-pei0 or something like this). My problem: I don't see any logs from that driver in the console and I tried like 40 different approaches and checked everything. The last message I see is that the driver get successfully added to the system it is in the list of active and enabled system driver extensions but when I plug the device in none of my logs appear and it doesn't show up in ioreg. So without my driver the target device looks like this: +-o TETRA PEI interface@02120000 <class IOUSBHostDevice, id 0x10000297d, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (13 ms), retain 30> | { | "sessionID" = 268696051410 | "USBSpeed" = 3 | "UsbLinkSpeed" = 480000000 | "idProduct" = 36886 | "iManufacturer" = 1 | "bDeviceClass" = 0 | "IOPowerManagement" = {"PowerOverrideOn"=Yes,"DevicePowerState"=2,"CurrentPowerState"=2,"CapabilityFlags"=32768,"MaxPowerState"=2,"DriverPowerState"=0} | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | "bMaxPacketSize0" = 64 | "iProduct" = 2 | "iSerialNumber" = 0 | "bNumConfigurations" = 1 | "UsbDeviceSignature" = <ad0c16901624000000ff0000> | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "locationID" = 34734080 | "bDeviceSubClass" = 0 | "bcdUSB" = 512 | "USB Address" = 6 | "kUSBCurrentConfiguration" = 1 | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"9dc7b780-9ec0-11d4-a54f-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | "UsbPowerSinkAllocation" = 500 | "bDeviceProtocol" = 0 | "USBPortType" = 0 | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | "Device Speed" = 2 | "idVendor" = 3245 | "kUSBProductString" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "kUSBAddress" = 6 | "kUSBVendorString" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | } | +-o AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice <class AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice, id 0x100002982, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 5> | { | "IOProbeScore" = 50000 | "CFBundleIdentifier" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOProviderClass" = "IOUSBHostDevice" | "IOClass" = "AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOPersonalityPublisher" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "bDeviceSubClass" = 0 | "CFBundleIdentifierKernel" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOMatchedAtBoot" = Yes | "IOMatchCategory" = "IODefaultMatchCategory" | "IOPrimaryDriverTerminateOptions" = Yes | "bDeviceClass" = 0 | } | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostDeviceUserClient, id 0x100002983, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 7> | { | "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" | "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes | } | +-o IOUSBHostInterface@0 <class IOUSBHostInterface, id 0x100002986, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (5 ms), retain 9> | | { | | "USBPortType" = 0 | | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"2d9786c6-9ef3-11d4-ad51-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | | "USBSpeed" = 3 | | "idProduct" = 36886 | | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | | "bInterfaceSubClass" = 0 | | "bConfigurationValue" = 1 | | "locationID" = 34734080 | | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | | "bInterfaceProtocol" = 0 | | "iInterface" = 0 | | "bAlternateSetting" = 0 | | "idVendor" = 3245 | | "bInterfaceNumber" = 0 | | "bInterfaceClass" = 255 | | "bNumEndpoints" = 2 | | } | | | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostInterfaceUserClient, id 0x100002988, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 6> | { | "UsbUserClientBufferStatistics" = {"IOMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOBufferMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOSubMemoryDescriptor"=0} | "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" | "UsbUserClientBufferAllocations" = {"Bytes"=0,"Descriptors"=0} | "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes | } | +-o IOUSBHostInterface@1 <class IOUSBHostInterface, id 0x100002987, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (5 ms), retain 9> | { | "USBPortType" = 0 | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"2d9786c6-9ef3-11d4-ad51-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | "USBSpeed" = 3 | "idProduct" = 36886 | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | "bInterfaceSubClass" = 0 | "bConfigurationValue" = 1 | "locationID" = 34734080 | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "bInterfaceProtocol" = 0 | "iInterface" = 0 | "bAlternateSetting" = 0 | "idVendor" = 3245 | "bInterfaceNumber" = 1 | "bInterfaceClass" = 255 | "bNumEndpoints" = 2 | } | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostInterfaceUserClient, id 0x10000298a, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 6> { "UsbUserClientBufferStatistics" = {"IOMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOBufferMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOSubMemoryDescriptor"=0} "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" "UsbUserClientBufferAllocations" = {"Bytes"=0,"Descriptors"=0} "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes } more details in my comment.

Has anyone experienced all review delays? We usually get reviewed very fast or within 24 hours. Our last version was stuck in "waiting for review" for 6 days. We resubmitted a newer version yesterday and it's been stuck in the same status. I know apple has introduced a new app submission UX, maybe that's the issue? Anyone is having same delays?

Our team is in the process of updating our apps to comply with Texas's new state law. In order to minimize user confusion and provide the most ideal flow to access the app as possible, we have a few questions we would like answered. Summary of questions: Is isEligibleForAgeFeatures intended to be accurate and accessible before the user has accepted the Age Range permissions prompt? As other US states and/or other countries adopt a similar law going forward, will this instance variable cover those locations? Will the runtime crashes on isEligibleForAgeFeatures and other symbols in the DeclaredAgeRange framework be addressed in a future RC or in the official release? Details and Investigations: With regards to isEligibleForAgeFeatures, our team has noticed that this value is always false before the age range prompt has been accepted. This has been tested on the XCode RC 26.2 (17C48). Assuming the request needs to be accepted first, isEligibleForAgeFeatures does not get updated immediately when the user chooses to share their age range (updated to true, when our sandbox test account is a Texas resident). Only upon subsequent relaunches of the app does this return a value that reflects the sandbox user's location. Is isEligibleForAgeFeatures intended to be accurate and accessible before the user has accepted the Age Range permissions prompt? This leads to our follow-up question to clarify whether isEligibleForAgeFeatures explicitly correlates to a user in an affected legal jurisdiction–if future US states and/or other countries adopt a similar law going forward, will this instance variable cover those locations? Can we also get confirmation about whether the runtime crash on isEligibleForAgeFeatures and other symbols in the DeclaredAgeRange framework will be addressed in a future RC or in the official release? Thank you.

macOS 26 "Tahoe" is allocating much more memory for apps than former macOS versions: A customer contacted me with my app's Thumbnail extension allocating so much memory that her 48 GB RAM Mac Mini ran into "out of application memory" state. I couldn't identify any memory leak in my extension's code nor reproduce the issue, but found the main app allocating as much as 5 times the memory compared to running on macOS 15 or lower. This productive app is explicitly using "Liquid Glass" views as well as implicitly e.g. for an inspector pane. So I created a sample app, just based on Xcode's template of a document-based app, and the issue is still showing (although less dramatically): This sample app allocates 22 MB according to Tahoe's Activity Monitor, while Sequoia only requires 16 MB: macOS 15.6.1 macOS 26.2 Is anyone experiencing similar issues? I suspect some massive leak in Tahoe's memory management, and just filed a corresponding feedback (FB21967167).

Hello, I’ve been experiencing a persistent issue in Xcode since version 26.0, and it is still present in 26.2. When using the split view to display two files side by side, the area in the top‑right corner of the window (the inspector / options panel) starts flickering continuously. This happens regardless of whether I’m using the light or dark theme, and even with the Liquid Glass effect disabled in macOS settings. None of these changes have any impact on the issue. I have already submitted a bug report through Xcode (Feedback Assistant), but the issue is still present as of today. The flickering makes the interface difficult to use and visually very distracting. I’ve attached a video to clearly show the issue. I will review the attachment at the time I publish this post. Thanks in advance for any help or feedback.

I have a file that can not be removed. When I attempt rm -f /Applications/CrashPlan.app I get "Operation not permitted"Here is the scenario, CrashPlan.app was installed on the MacBook Pro (MacBookPro14,2) running 10.14.4. I found out it was an older version of CrashPlan so I downloaded the installer for the new version and ran it. The installed failed and left behind a file of size 0K.-rw-r--r--@ 1 root admin 0 Apr 11 11:43 CrashPlan.appI then tried to remove the 0K file in terminal with sudo rm -f /Applications/CrashPlan.app and that failed with operation not permitted. I then booted into Recovery mode and ran csrutil disable from terminal and rebooted.sudo rm -f /Applications/CrashPlan.app still failed with operation not permitted.I ran csrutil status in terminal to make sure that sip was disabled and got back: System Integrity Protection status: disabled.I tried booting into single user mode and mounted the drive and tried to rm from there and got the same result. So, from single user mode I did the following:mv /Applications /ApplicationsOLDmkdir /Applicationsmv /ApplicationsOLD/* /Applications/and got an error "Operation not permitted" for CrashPlan.apprebooted and was able to install the new version of CrashPlan, but now I have a folder /ApplicationsOLD that I can not get rid of.Any ideas?

I have a UIHostingController on which I have set: hostingController.sizingOptions = [.intrinsicContentSize] The size of my SwiftUI content changes with animation (I update a @Published property on an ObservableObject inside a withAnimation block). However, I notice that my hostingController.view just jumps to the new frame without animating the change. Question: how can I animate the frame changes in UIHostingController that are caused by sizingOptions = [.intrinsicContentSize]

We are observing some unexpected behavior in our app when using ASK. Our app is able to successfully discover and set up an accessory via ASK. After the setup completes, the connection to the accessory is managed through CBCentralManager and works as expected. However, when we attempt to discover another accessory afterward, the picker is shown and indicates that accessory discovery is in progress. After approximately 10 seconds, the CBCentralManager delegate reports the Bluetooth state as poweredOff. Once this happens, the state never transitions back to poweredOn. At this point, the only way to reconnect to the device or continue discovery is to relaunch the app. We are wondering if anyone else has encountered similar behavior, or if this is a known or documented limitation/behavior when using ASK in combination with CBCentralManager.

Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program on February 1, 2026. I completed payment, signed the agreement, and uploaded my government-issued ID after support requested identity verification. I received confirmation that my documents were received, but my membership is still pending. It has now been over three weeks with no activation or clear update. I have contacted support multiple times and even called, but I am still waiting. Has anyone experienced a similar delay recently? Is this normal for identity verification in certain regions? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, I am using CLLocationManager to monitor multiple CLBeaconRegion instances (up to 20). When the app is terminated by the system (not force-quit) and a region enter event occurs, the app is relaunched in the background. I have two questions: What is the expected execution time window after relaunch before the app is suspended again? Is it supported to start short CoreBluetooth operations (e.g., scanning or connecting briefly) within this window? I understand that force-quitting the app disables background relaunch, so this question applies only to system-terminated apps.

The zoom navigation transition with matchedTransitionSource in tabViewBottomAccessory does not work when a Published var in an ObservableObjector Observable gets changed. Here is an minimal reproducible example with ObservableObject: import SwiftUI import Combine private final class ViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var isPresented = false } struct ContentView: View { @Namespace private var namespace @StateObject private var viewModel = ViewModel() // @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { TabView { Button { viewModel.isPresented = true } label: { Text("Start") } .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house") Text("Home") } Text("Search") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "magnifyingglass") Text("Search") } Text("Profile") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "person") Text("Profile") } } .sheet(isPresented: $viewModel.isPresented) { Text("Sheet") .presentationDragIndicator(.visible) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace)) } .tabViewBottomAccessory { Button { viewModel.isPresented = true } label: { Text("BottomAccessory") } .matchedTransitionSource(id: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace) } } } However, when using only a State property everything works: import SwiftUI import Combine private final class ViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var isPresented = false } struct ContentView: View { @Namespace private var namespace // @StateObject private var viewModel = ViewModel() @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { TabView { Button { isPresented = true } label: { Text("Start") } .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house") Text("Home") } Text("Search") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "magnifyingglass") Text("Search") } Text("Profile") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "person") Text("Profile") } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { Text("Sheet") .presentationDragIndicator(.visible) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace)) } .tabViewBottomAccessory { Button { isPresented = true } label: { Text("BottomAccessory") } .matchedTransitionSource(id: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace) } } }

It has been approximately three weeks since we submitted our app for review via App Store Connect, but it remains "In Review" and the review process has not been completed. For this reason, we also requested an expedited app review to the App Review Team last week. Will the review proceed if we simply wait? Is there any way to check the detailed status of this app review?

After the payment, I received this email:"Thank you for joining the Apple Developer Program. You can now take advantage of membership benefits to create and distribute innovative apps. Learn how to get started. To manage your account, sign in to Member Center."If I sign in to Member Center, I am sent to https://developer.apple.com/register/error/"You've already agreed to the Apple Developer Agreement. Continue to Member Center or sign out"."Continue to Member Center" gives the same pages, I can only sign out.What's the matter?

Hi, I hope it's ok to post this here as I'm on a bit of a time-crunch to have this sorted and looking to get this issue resolved. I just renewed my Apple Developer Program membership (annual subscription) and received my order confirmation (Order #W1411330632, placed February 28, 2026) for $1,749.00 MXN. However, my membership status still hasn't updated to active. Is this normal (a waiting period for a renewal). If not, could someone help guide me in the direction of whom to reach out to for support? Thank you for your help. Regards, Joe

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.

Hello I'm using this sdk DeclaredAgeRange to get the user age range When I'm doing in debug mode using sandbox account it is working as expected and I can get the user age range But when I tried in TestFlight build using sandbox account it is not working and it is always return the age range 18+ and also isEligibleForAgeFeatures API is always returning false Any advise on this?

I have an icon button in toolbar but only the icon is triggering tap events while outside icon button gives tap feedback but event is not firing. Code: ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { Button(action: toggleBookmark) { Image(systemName: isBookmarked ? "bookmark.fill" : "bookmark") .resizable() .aspectRatio(0.8, contentMode: .fit) .frame(width: 20, height: 20) } } Here toggleBookmark function is only called if I click on Image but not if I click outside image but on the circular button that appears on iOS 26. See this screen recording.

Hello everyone, I’m looking for some clarity from the community regarding eligibility for the Swift Student Challenge 2026, particularly for students taking a gap year in India. I graduated from high school (Class XII, CBSE – India) in May 2025. After graduating, I chose to take a gap year to prepare for competitive entrance examinations in India, with the goal of pursuing Computer Science / Engineering. I’ll be applying to accredited universities for programs starting in mid-2026, and I’m not currently enrolled in a college. My question: The eligibility guidelines state that high school graduates must have graduated within the past 6 months and must be awaiting acceptance or have received acceptance to an accredited institution. Since the submission deadline is February 28, 2026, my graduation would be about 9 months prior, which puts me in a gray area. Has anyone here participated in, or seen others participate in, the Swift Student Challenge while taking a gap year and preparing for university entrance exams? Is there any known flexibility or precedent for students in this situation? I’ve been following the Swift Student Challenge since 2023 and would really love to participate if I’m eligible. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
