Overview

Hello! Trying to find any info about how to add In-App Purchase with application Entitlements.plist file manually (NOT with XCode). Is there any reference within keys and description? What need to be in this file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>key-for-in-app-purchase</key> <string>value</string> </dict> </plist>

Good day! When your project have total 887 or more SPM local targets and then you try to build it, xcodebuild will be crash.

Since publishing new record types to my CloudKit schema in production, a previously unchanged record type has stopped indexing new records. While records of this type are successfully saved without errors, they are not returned in query results—they can only be accessed directly via their recordName. This issue occurs exclusively in the Production environment, both in the CloudKit Console and our iOS app. The problem began on July 21, 2025, and continues to persist. The issue affects only new records of this specific record type; all other types are indexing and querying as expected. The affected record's fields are properly configured with the appropriate index types (e.g., QUERYABLE) and have been not been modified prior to publishing the schema. With this, are there any steps I should take to restore indexing functionality for this record type in Production? There have been new records inserted, and I would prefer to not have to reset the production database, if possible.

Hi, I'm using one ttf font that simulate a bitmap look in my app. However, macOS renders all font with anti-aliasing. On those kind of font, that introduce some artefacts. Is there a way to disable anti-aliasing or some tricks that would make like there were no anti-aliasing? Thanks.

I am trying to use SpeechDetector Module in Speech framework along with SpeechTranscriber. and it is giving me an error Cannot convert value of type 'SpeechDetector' to expected element type 'Array.ArrayLiteralElement' (aka 'any SpeechModule') Below is how I am using it let speechDetector = Speech.SpeechDetector() let transcriber = SpeechTranscriber(locale: Locale.current, transcriptionOptions: [], reportingOptions: [.volatileResults], attributeOptions: [.audioTimeRange]) speechAnalyzer = try SpeechAnalyzer(modules: [transcriber,speechDetector])

Suppose you have a view: struct Library: View { @State var books = [] var body: some View { VStack { ... Button("add Book") { .... } } } Such that Library view holds a Book array that gets populated internally via a button that opens a modal – or something alike. How can I use #Peviews to preview Library with a pre-populated collection? Suppose I have a static books – dummy – array in my code just for that; still, what's the best way to use that to preview the Library view?

As a part of the video editing app I’m working on, I want to efficiently copy a folder of resources on the same (local) filesystem. Because iOS is on APFS, cloning (CoW) is an option. I read the documentation for clonefile(2) which states that cloning a folder works but is strongly discouraged. I did a small sample project which demonstrates that using clonefile on a folder works correctly and is 10× faster than using FileManager’s copyItem method. My questions: The main one I’m interested in: Why is using clonefile for a folder strongly discouraged? Is FileManager using cloning behind the scenes? Or more exactly how guaranteed are we it will use it? (I know it does, I tried manually cping the resources and it was thousands of times slower.)

Testing Environment: iOS: 26.0 Beta 7 Xcode: Beta 6 Description: We are implementing the new BGContinuedProcessingTask API introduced in iOS 26. We have followed the official documentation and WWDC session guidance to configure our project. The Background Modes (processing) and Background GPU Access capabilities have been added in Xcode. The com.apple.developer.background-tasks.continued-processing.gpu entitlement is present and set to in the .entitlements file. The provisioning profile details viewed within Xcode explicitly show that the "Background GPU Access" capability and the corresponding entitlement are included. Despite this correct configuration, when running the app on supported hardware (iPhone 16 Pro), a call to BGTaskScheduler.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) consistently returns false. This prevents us from setting request.requiredResources = .gpu. As a result, when the BGContinuedProcessingTask starts without the GPU resource flag, our internal Metal-based exporter attempts to access the GPU and is terminated by the system, throwing an IOGPUMetalError: Insufficient Permission (to submit GPU work from background). We have performed extensive debugging, including a full reset of the provisioning profile (removing/re-adding capabilities, toggling automatic signing, cleaning build folders, and reinstalling the app), but the issue persists. This strongly suggests a bug in the iOS 26 beta where the runtime is failing to correctly validate a valid entitlement. Additionally, we've observed inconsistent behavior across devices. On an A16-based iPad, the task submits successfully (BGTaskScheduler.submit does not throw an error), but the launch handler is never invoked by the system. On the iPhone 16 Pro, the handler is invoked, but we encounter the supportedResources issue described above. This leads us to ask for clarification on the exact hardware requirements for this feature. We hypothesize that it may be limited to devices that support Apple Intelligence (A17 Pro and newer). Could you please confirm this and provide official documentation on the device support criteria? Steps to Reproduce: Create a new Xcode project. In Signing & Capabilities, add "Background Modes" (with "Background processing" checked) and "Background GPU Access". Add a permitted identifier (e.g., "com.company.test.*") to BGTaskSchedulerPermittedIdentifiers in Info.plist. In application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) or a ViewController's viewDidLoad, log the result of BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu). Build and run on a physical, supported device (e.g., iPhone 16 Pro). Expected Results: The log should indicate that BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) returns true. Actual Results: The log shows that BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) returns false.

Hi everyone, I’ve run into a strange localization issue with macOS document-based apps in SwiftUI/AppKit. I created a standard document-based macOS app in Xcode (SwiftUI template) and added a French localization to the project. All system-generated menu bar commands (File → New, Close, Print, etc.) are correctly translated into French… except for “Save”, which remains in English. To rule out problems in my own code, I created a fresh, unmodified document-based app project in Xcode, and immediately added French localization without touching any code. Same result: all commands are translated except “Save”. This suggests the issue isn’t specific to my app code, but either the project template, or possibly macOS itself. My environment • Xcode version: 16.4 • macOS version: 15.6.1 Sequoia] • Swift: Swift 6 Questions 1. Has anyone else seen this issue with the “Save” command not being localized? 2. Is this expected behavior (maybe “Save” is handled differently from other menu items)? 3. If it’s a bug in the template or OS, is there a known workaround? Thanks for any insights P.S. Please note that I'm a total beginner

I have really enjoyed looking through the code and videos related to Metal 4. Currently, my interest is to update a ReSTIR Project and take advantage of more robust ways to refit acceleration Structures and more powerful ways to access resources. I am working in Swift and have encountered a couple of puzzles: What is the 'accepted' way to create a MTL4BufferRange to store indices and vertices? How do I properly rewrite Swift code to build and compact an Acceleration Structure? I do realize that this is all in Beta and will happily look through Code Samples this Fall. If other guidance is available earlier, that would be fabulous! Thank you

Hi! When starting my app which is loading a Content Filter Network Extension I am getting the following error : sysextd: <bundle_id> : extension failed category property check: extensions belonging to the com.apple.system_extension.endpoint_security category require a later version of operating system to launch ... OSSystemExtensionRequest didFailWithError for <bundle_id> : The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain error 9.) This is happening on a VM running Sonoma 14.7.8. I upgraded the VM to the latest available OS and the system extension is loading just fine. My question is : reading the documentation, I understand that the Network Extensions are supported starting with macOS 10.10+. Why is this not working on my Sonoma 14.7.8 VM?

Hi, after upgrading to MacOS Sequoia, my connection to my local IP address does not work. The issue is with the PF (MacOS advanced firewall), as I confirmed that my local application works disabling it temporarily. Does anyone know how can I do to solve this problem? As APP developer, this is a big problem for me. Thanks in advance.

After game restart first purchase is contained in receipt but the next ones is the same as first one so new purchases is not added. I afraid players can be charged for purchase but on my server I will not receive new purchases instead receipt with old one so they can do not receive in game currency. Will in production I receive a receipts with new consumable every time player purchase it? I use Unity3d In-app purchasing 5.0.1.

So I'm developing an ios application which should be showing shortcuts, but its not. I'm not sure how to debug why the functionality isnt working. Believe I'm correctly calling AppShortcutsProvider's updateAppShortcutParameters, but I dont see any errors in the console showing me a problem. And in fact, I made a simplified just swift version that works before I tried to integrate it into a more complex project. But now I'm at a loss as to what is going wrong or what debug tools I can use to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone, After updating to Xcode 16.4, my StoreKit configuration stopped working. Whenever I run the app with a .storekit file set as the active scheme, I immediately get this alert: “The file has been changed. Do you want to save your changes or revert to the file on disk?” No matter if I choose Save Anyway or Revert, StoreKit testing does not work - the purchases are not simulated, and the scheme is basically broken. This issue didn’t exist in Xcode 15.4 - the same StoreKit configuration file works fine there. What I tried so far: Clearing Derived Data - no effect Making sure no scripts/tools modify the .storekit file - still happens Restarting Xcode and macOS - no change Environment: Xcode 16.4 Happens in both Simulator and on device Reproducible 100% Has anyone else seen this in 16.4? Any known workarounds until Apple fixes it? Thanks!

I’m stuck with repeated production crashes in my SwiftUI app and I can’t make sense of the traces on my own. The symbolicated reports show the same pattern: Crash on com.apple.CFNetwork.LoaderQ with EXC_BAD_ACCESS / PAC failure Always deep in CFNetwork, most often in URLConnectionLoader::loadWithWhatToDo(NSURLRequest*, _CFCachedURLResponse const*, long, URLConnectionLoader::WhatToDo) No frames from my code, no sign of AuthManager or tokens. What I’ve tried: Enabled Address Sanitizer, Malloc Scribble, Guard Malloc, Zombies. Set CFNETWORK_DIAGNOSTICS=3 and collected Console logs. Stress-tested the app (rapid typing, filter switching, background/foreground, poor network with Network Link Conditioner). Could not reproduce the crash locally. So far: Logs show unrelated performance faults (I/O on main thread, CLLocationManager delegate), but no obvious CFNetwork misuse. My suspicion is a URLSession lifetime or delegate/auth-challenge race, but I can’t confirm because I can’t trigger it. Since starting this investigation, I also refactored some of my singletons into @State/@ObservedObject dependencies. For example, my app root now wires up AuthManager, BackendService, and AccountManager (where API calls happen using async/await) as @State properties: @State var authManager: AuthManager @State var accountManager: AccountManager @State var backendService: BackendService init() { let authManager = AuthManager() self._authManager = .init(wrappedValue: authManager) let backendService = BackendService(authManager: authManager) self._backendService = .init(wrappedValue: backendService) self._accountManager = .init(wrappedValue: AccountManager(backendService: backendService)) } I don’t know if this refactor is related to the crash, but I am including it to be complete. Apologies that I don’t have a minimized sample project — this issue seems app-wide, and all I have are the crash logs. Request: Given the crash location (URLConnectionLoader::loadWithWhatToDo), can Apple provide guidance on known scenarios or misuses that can lead to this crash? Is there a way to get more actionable diagnostics from CFNetwork beyond CFNETWORK_DIAGNOSTICS to pinpoint whether it’s session lifetime, cached response corruption, or auth/redirect? Can you also confirm whether my dependency setup above could contribute to URLSession or backend lifetime issues? I can’t reliably reproduce the crash, and without Apple’s insight the stack trace is effectively opaque to me. Thanks for your time and help. Happy to send multiple symbolicated crash logs at request. Thanks for any help. PS. Including 2 of many similar crash logs. Can provide more if needed.

On MacOS 26 Tahoe, we are getting a background warning message stating, “App is running in the background…” Is this expected behavior on the new OS? Thanks Asutos

We have an app in Swift that uses push notifications. It has a deployment target of iOS 15.0 I originally audited our app for iOS 26 by building it with Xcode 26 beta 3. At that point, all was well. Our implementation of application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken was called. But when rebuilding the app with beta 4, 5 and now 6, that function is no longer being called. I created a simple test case by creating a default iOS app project, then performing these additional steps: Set bundle ID to our app's ID Add the Push Notifications capability Add in application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken: with a print("HERE") just to set a breakpoint. Added the following code inside application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: along with setting a breakpoint on the registerForRemoteNotifications line: UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.badge, .alert, .sound]) { granted, _ in DispatchQueue.main.async { UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications() } } Building and running with Xcode 26 beta 6 (17A5305f) generates these two different outcomes based upon the OS running in the Simulator: iPhone 16 Pro simulator running iOS 18.4 - both breakpoints are reached iPhone 16 Pro simulator running iOS 26 - only the breakpoint on UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications is reached. Assuming this is a bug in iOS 26. Or, is there something additional we now need to do to get push notifications working?

First the Model: import Foundation import SwiftData //Model for Earned Value Analysis @Model final class CostReport{ var aCWP: Double //Actual Cost of Work Performed var bCWP: Double //Budgeted Cost of Work Performed var bCWS: Double // Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled var cumACWP: Double// Cumlative Actual Cost of Work Performed var cumBCWP: Double // Cumlative Budgeted Cost of Work Performed var cumBCWS: Double // Cumlative Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled var startDateOfPeriod: Date var endDateOfPeriod: Date var contract: Contract? init(aCWP: Double = 0.0, bCWP: Double = 0.0, bCWS: Double = 0.0, cumACWP: Double = 0.0, cumBCWP: Double = 0.0, cumBCWS: Double = 0.0, startDateOfPeriod: Date = .now, endDateOfPeriod: Date = .now, contract: Contract) { self.aCWP = aCWP self.bCWP = bCWP self.bCWS = bCWS self.cumACWP = cumACWP self.cumBCWP = cumBCWP self.cumBCWS = cumBCWS self.startDateOfPeriod = startDateOfPeriod self.endDateOfPeriod = endDateOfPeriod self.contract = contract } } @Model //Model for Contracts final class Contract{ var costReports: [CostReport] var contractType: ContractType? @Attribute(.unique)var contractNumber: String @Attribute(.unique)var contractName: String var startDate: Date var endDate: Date var contractValue: Double var contractorName: String var contractorContact: String var contractorPhone: String var contractorEmail: String init(costReports: [CostReport], contractType: ContractType, contractNumber: String = "", contractName: String = "", startDate: Date = .now, endDate: Date = .now, contractValue: Double = 0.0, contractorName: String = "", contractorContact: String = "", contractorPhone: String = "", contractorEmail: String = "") { self.costReports = costReports self.contractType = contractType self.contractNumber = contractNumber self.contractName = contractName self.startDate = startDate self.endDate = endDate self.contractValue = contractValue self.contractorName = contractorName self.contractorContact = contractorContact self.contractorPhone = contractorPhone self.contractorEmail = contractorEmail } } @Model //Model for contract types final class ContractType{ var contracts: [Contract] @Attribute(.unique)var typeName: String @Attribute(.unique)var typeCode: String var typeDescription: String init(contracts: [Contract], typeName: String = "", typeCode: String = "", typeDescription: String = "") { self.contracts = contracts self.typeName = typeName self.typeCode = typeCode self.typeDescription = typeDescription } } ContractType has a one to many relationship to Contract. Contract has a one to many relationship with CostReport. The ContractTypes can vary depending on the users situation so I need the user to be able to enter ContractTypes. Code for that: import SwiftUI import SwiftData struct EnterContractTypes: View { @Environment(.modelContext) var managedObjectContext @Query private var contracts: [Contract] @Query private var contractTypes: [ContractType] @State private var typeName: String = "" @State private var typeCode: String = "" @State private var typeDescription: String = "" var body: some View { Form { Section(header: Text("Enter Contract Type") .foregroundStyle(Color(.green)) .bold() .font(.largeTitle)) { TextField("Name", text: $typeName) .frame(width: 400, height: 40) TextField("Code", text: $typeCode) .frame(width: 400, height: 40) TextField("Description", text: $typeDescription, axis: .vertical) .frame(width: 600, height: 60) } } .frame(width:1000, height:500) } func save() { let newContractType = ContractType(context: managedObjectContext) newContractType.typeName = typeName newContractType.typeCode = typeCode newContractType.typeDescription = typeDescription try? managedObjectContext.save() The "let newContractType = ContractType(context: managedObjectContext)" is where the error happens. It says there is an extra argument in the context call.
