Overview

My app sells digital Bibles, can I use a payment gateway like PayPal or any other to sell, or should I always use StoreKit?

I updated to IOS 18, now every time I click on Screen Time, my phone freezes and then goes back to the main screen. After being upset for a while, I decided to go back to IOS17, but to do so, I need to unable the "Find my iPhone," which is also LOCKED and unavailable with this update. What am I supposed to do?

Hello everyone! I have a WKWebView in my swiftui app and would like to enable to "pop root view when selected tab is tapped again" feature, but I have been unable to figure out how to implement this. Here's the basic code: class TabIdentifierModel:ObservableObject { @Published var tabSelection:TabIdentifier { willSet { if newValue == tabSelection { NotificationCenter.default.post(name: .popRootView, object: nil, userInfo: ["tab": newValue.rawValue]) } } } init() { tabSelection = .home } } struct ContentView: View { @AppStorage(AppStorageKeys.enableShorts) var enableShorts = true @StateObject var storeVM = StoreVM() @StateObject var downloadURLManager = DownloadURLManager.shared @State var downloadViewIsOpen = false // ...... @State var tabSelection = TabIdentifierModel() var body: some View { TabView(selection: $tabSelection.tabSelection) { // ...... WebViewWrapper(url: $libraryTabURL) .tabItem { Label { Text("Library") } icon: { Image(systemName: "folder.fill") } }.tag(TabIdentifier.library) // ...... } .environmentObject(tabSelection) } } Tapping on the tab again doesn't seem to set the value again thus the NotificationCenter.default.post is not sent and the web view is not reloaded. Help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

The screen time issue is still going on in Beta 2. I have submitted my report. There is no way of accessing the screen time settings. It just crashes. If you try to go to the locked out app, the only option that actually works is the OK button. You can’t dismiss or extend for 15 minutes. who else is having this same issue?

Stopped updating the location of my family members on June 21st while they can see my location just fine. Restarted, turned on and off sharing, nothing works. any suggestions?

I have an admin role. but I won't be able to access the Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles page. When I tried to access this page, it was saying, 'Access Unavailable PopUp'. Please help me to fix this issue. thanks My Team ID : 2KLNCC859A

I'm migrating my app to Store Kit V1, to Store Kit V2, and, due some legacy circumstances I'm implemented in past using a synchronous method, calling verify receipt on my server to validate receipt and do the needed business logic, but due to the deadline I changed the entire app integration and some questions starting to appear in my mind. First of all, when I processing the purchase when basically I will receive the notification? When the Store Kit calls the transaction.finish or after the purchase was successful I always will receive this notification?

I had a series of @Model classes with some mandatory attributes and some optional. Pre-move to 18, everything was working fine. After the migration, it reports that every single non-Optional attribute is nil upon trying to save. The error is CoreData related but not sure if its in the Core layer or Swift layer. Sample error (with app data removed) is : SwiftData.DefaultStore save failed with error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=1560 "Multiple validation errors occurred." Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=1570 \"%{PROPERTY}@ is a required value.\" UserInfo={NSValidationErrorObject=<NSManagedObject: 0x30388b2a0> NSLocalizedDescription=%{PROPERTY}@ is a required value., NSValidationErrorKey=systemName, NSValidationErrorValue=null}" I have modified the code to provide default values for all constructors in an attempt to see a difference, but get the same errors

Good evening guys I have a big problem. My Mac consumes a lot of internet, up to 50 GB a day, and I do all my work on Xcode with a search on Safari. I don't know where this whole internet is going I tracked consumption on the Activity Monitor and it also does not show where this consumption is The total capacity is 50 GB, and the available processes do not consume more than 5 GB what should I do ?!!

I've created a closed source iOS SDK from a local Swift package, which has dependencies on other Swift packages, and successfully created a binary XCFramework following the solution from my previous post. Now I'm proceeding with the process to distribute this SDK. I believe I want to upload the XCFramework to a public repo alongside a Package.swift file and an Example app project that uses the XCFramework. So each time I go to create a new release I’ll create a new XCFramework replacing the current one, verify it's working properly in the example app, then commit, tag, and push to the repo. My question is how do I set this up as a Swift package that includes an example app that uses the local XCFramework (not a remote url to a zip of the framework) and properly resolves dependencies? So far I created a directory containing MyFramework.xcframework and Package.swift containing: // swift-tools-version: 5.10 // The swift-tools-version declares the minimum version of Swift required to build this package. import PackageDescription let package = Package( name: "MyFramework", platforms: [ .iOS(.v14) ], products: [ .library( name: "MyFramework", targets: ["MyFramework"] ) ], dependencies: [ .package(url: "https://github.com/example/example.git", from: "1.0.0") ], targets: [ .binaryTarget( name: "MyFramework", path: "MyFramework.xcframework" ) ] ) I then created an Example iOS app project in that directory and now need to integrate the local XCFramework. I wondered if I could do that via File > Add Package Dependencies > Add Local, but when I navigate to that Package.swift and click Add Package it says The selected package cannot be a direct ancestor of the project. Do I need a different Package.swift for the Example app, and if so, how do I get that set up? I created a separate Package.swift (contents below) alongside the xcodeproj but when I try to add that in Xcode I get the same error, despite the fact this package is a sibling of the project not an ancestor. // swift-tools-version: 5.10 // The swift-tools-version declares the minimum version of Swift required to build this package. import PackageDescription let package = Package( name: "MyFramework-Example", platforms: [ .iOS(.v14) ], dependencies: [ .package(name: "MyFramework", path: "../") ], targets: [ .target( name: "MyFramework-Example", dependencies: ["MyFramework"] ) ] )

In previous years it seems there were limitations about where AppIntent types could live in your code base for them to be surfaced up to the Shortcuts app. Specifically, they needed to be in the top level app or extension target. However, WWDC24's What's new in App Intents talks about "Framework Improvements" and has a slide that implies that AppEntity, AppEnum, AND AppIntent types can live in a framework. Is this actually the case? I can see the Metadata.appintents in the build products of my framework, and my intent is included in the JSON, but these intents never make it into the Shortcuts app when I install an app that consumes the framework. I'm testing this with Xcode 16b1 in a iOS 18 simulator.

Greetings - If I build an app using DocumentGroup, I get the document picker when the app launches. A good iOS app should restore the state the app was in when it was closed. It seems like with DocumentGroup, when the user leaves my app and the app is killed, the next time they launch it, they have to remember the document they were working on and reopen it. How can I have my DocumentGroup-based app restore the last open document at launch? FB13874563 Thanks - Steve

I have created a Hand Action Classification project following the guidelines which causes the Create ML tool to provide the very cryptic "Unexpected Error". The feature extraction phase is fine, with the error occurring during model training after the tool reports completion of the first five training iterations as it moves on to report the next ten. The project is small with 3 training classes and 346 items I have tried to vary the frame rate and action duration, with all augmentations unset, but the error still persists. Can you please confirm how I may get further error diagnostic information so that I can determine why Create ML is unable to work with my training data? Mac OS is Sonoma 14.5 on an iMac 24-inch, M1, 2021. Create ML is Version 5.0 (121.4)

We develop an SDK that requires sharing a device-specific identifier with our web API, in order to guarantee that certain artifacts are only used on the correct device. For the device-specific identifier, we use UIDevice.currentDevice.identifierForVendor which should not be restricted under ATT. In production, many developers are getting back to us with complaints of web requests being blocked: nw_endpoint_handler_path_change [C1 [our url]:443 waiting parent-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, dns, uses wifi)] blocked tracker Connection 1: received failure notification Connection 1: failed to connect 1:50, reason -1 Connection 1: encountered error(1:50) Task <FA03088C-DDFC-437E-A06F-E05CC930E3E0>.<1> HTTP load failed, 0/0 bytes (error code: -1009 [1:50]) Task <FA03088C-DDFC-437E-A06F-E05CC930E3E0>.<1> finished with error [-1009] Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1009 "The Internet connection appears to be offline."

The blacklist stays in place regardless of whether we send no identifiable data in the web request (in fact, an empty ping request to our URL still gets blocked) The only way to get past the block is to use ATT, and request from the user that we track them across websites. This is false, because we don't track any user data whatsoever; and iOS disables ATT by default (in the settings app, users have to opt-in). Our iOS SDK already has an xcprivacy manifest mentioning the fact that we use a device-specific identifier, and that we send it to our web API URL. Still, we get blocked. How can we fix this? We can standup a proxy URL but I'd imagine it's only a matter of time before that also gets blocked. Apple has not provided any guidance on the specifics of how domains get blocked, and how they can be unblocked.

We are implementing just-in-time account creation using Platform Single Sign-on. After creating the account, we are registering the user with PSSO and we want to ensure that the IDP account used for account creation matches the IDP account used in the user registration flow. An easy way to do this appears to be using loginUsername on the ASAuthorizationProviderExtensionLoginManager object. loginUsername gets set during account creation and then we can check what the user is entering during registration. The documentation, however, marks this attribute as deprecated. There is no indication of what could be used instead. Is there some other value we could look at? Does Apple have a plan to introduce a preferred API option? Thanks!

With the integration of Apple's pushToTalk framework - we create the PTChannelManager using its async initializer from AppDidFinishLaunching - using an actor to ensure the PTChannelManager is only created once. With this we have been seeing a lot of crashes for users in our analytics dashboards happening about ~2 seconds after app launch around a task-dealloc. Here is a simplified version of our actor and Manager - where the manager just shows the init. The init of it is an async optional init because the creation of the PTChannelManager uses an async throws. actor PushToTalkDeviceContainer { private var internalPushToTalkManagerTask: Task<PushToTalkManager?, Never>? func pushToTalkManager() async -> PushToTalkManager? { #if !os(visionOS) if let internalPushToTalkManagerTask { return await internalPushToTalkManagerTask.value } let internalPushToTalkManagerTask = Task<PushToTalkManager?, Never> { return await PushToTalkManagerImp() } self.internalPushToTalkManagerTask = internalPushToTalkManagerTask return await internalPushToTalkManagerTask.value #else return nil #endif } } public class PushToTalkManagerImp: PushToTalkManager { public let onPushToTalkDelegationEvent: AnyPublisher<PushToTalkDelegationEvent, Never> public let onPushToTalkAudioSessionChange: AnyPublisher<PushToTalkManagerAudioSessionChange, Never> public let onChannelRestoration: AnyPublisher<UUID, Never> private let ptChannelManager: PTChannelManager private let restorationDelegate: PushToTalkRestorationDelegate private let delegate: PushToTalkDelegate init?() async { self.delegate = PushToTalkDelegate() self.restorationDelegate = PushToTalkRestorationDelegate() self.onPushToTalkDelegationEvent = delegate.pushToTalkDelegationSubject.eraseToAnyPublisher() self.onPushToTalkAudioSessionChange = delegate.audioSessionSubject.eraseToAnyPublisher() self.onChannelRestoration = restorationDelegate.restorationDelegateSubject.eraseToAnyPublisher() do { ptChannelManager = try await PTChannelManager.channelManager(delegate: delegate, restorationDelegate: restorationDelegate) } catch { return nil } } } The crash stack trace is as follows: 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001e903342c __pthread_kill + 8 (:-1) 1 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001fcdd2c0c pthread_kill + 268 (pthread.c:1721) 2 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001a7ed6c34 __abort + 136 (abort.c:159) 3 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001a7ed6bac abort + 192 (abort.c:126) 4 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x00000001ab2bf7c8 swift::swift_Concurrency_fatalErrorv(unsigned int, char const*, char*) + 32 (Error.cpp:25) 5 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x00000001ab2bf7e8 swift::swift_Concurrency_fatalError(unsigned int, char const*, ...) + 32 (Error.cpp:35) 6 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x00000001ab2c39a8 swift_task_dealloc + 128 (TaskAlloc.cpp:59) 7 MyApp 0x0000000104908e04 PushToTalkManagerImp.__allocating_init() + 40 (PushToTalkManager.swift:0) 8 MyApp 0x0000000104908e04 closure #1 in PushToTalkDeviceContainer.pushToTalkManager() + 60 9 MyApp 0x00000001041882e9 specialized thunk for @escaping @callee_guaranteed @Sendable @async () -> (@out A) + 1 (<compiler-generated>:0) 10 MyApp 0x0000000103a652bd partial apply for specialized thunk for @escaping @callee_guaranteed @Sendable @async () -> (@out A) + 1 (<compiler-generated>:0) 11 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x00000001ab2c2775 completeTaskWithClosure(swift::AsyncContext*, swift::SwiftError*) + 1 (Task.cpp:463)

Is there any feasible way to get a Core Audio device's system effect status (Voice Isolation, Wide Spectrum)? AVCaptureDevice provides convenience properties for system effects for video devices. I need to get this status for Core Audio input devices.

I'm getting confused reading conflicting information about Swift Packages (for example, many sources say its for distributing source code only, but Apple's documentation says a binary framework can be included in them). What I would like to be able to do is to distribute a project as a binary to external customers (so they cannot see the source code) but distribute it as source code for internal consumption (so when developing a test app that uses the project, source code can be stepped through in the debugger etc.) Is the feasible/easy? Could a package manifest be created that can easily be flipped between creating a package containing source only, and a binary only. Or would it be better to have two separate manifests?

I have an app that uses a MultiCamCaptureSession, the devices of which are builtInUltraWideCamera and builtInLiDARDepthCamera cameras. Occasionally when outside I get some frame drops due to discontinuity that end in the media services being reset: [06-24 11:27:13][CameraSession] Capture session runtime error: related decl 'e' for AVError(_nsError: Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11819 "Cannot Complete Action" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot Complete Action, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Try again later.}) This runtime error notification is always superseded by 4-5 frame drops : [06-24 11:27:10][CaptureSession] Dropped frame because Discontinuity Logging the system temperature shows [06-24 11:27:10][CaptureSession] Temperature is 'Fair' I have some inclination that the frame discontinuity is being caused by the whileBalanceMode of the capture session, perhaps the algorithm requires 5 recent frames to work. I had a similar problem with the lidar depth camera where with filtering enabled exactly 5 frame drops would make the media services reset. When the whiteBalanceMode is locked I do slightly better with 10 frame drops before the mediaServices are reset. Is there any logging utility to determine the actual reason? All of these sampleBuffers come with no info attachment only the not so useful "Dropped frame because Discontinuity." Any ideas for solving this would be helpful as well. Maybe tuning the camera to work better with quickly varying lighting conditions?
