I currently have a schema in production (cloudKit and local files) containing non-optional transformable values, e.g.
@Attribute(.transformable(by: TestTransformer.self))
var number: TestTransformable = TestTransformable.init(value: 100)
Unfortunately, this is preventing any migration from succeeding (documented at length in FB22151570).
Briefly summarized, any migration from a Schema containing non-optional transformable values fails between willMigrate and didMigrate with the error "Can't find model for source store". This occurs for all migrations, including lightweight with a migration plan, lightweight without a plan, and custom migrations. Worst of all, this also prevents migration to optional transformable values, or the elimination of the transformable value entirely, leaving us completely stuck.
(note: optional transformable values only work when they have a default value set to nil, otherwise even these have issues migrating)
We already have features being blocked by this issue, and would like to preserve user-data while restoring our ability to move forwards with database.
Are there any known workarounds for using SwiftData (+CloudKit) when schema migration is non-operational?

We’re having an iPad issue accessing the local network with iPadOS 26.3. We have an automation system that tests our app on an iPad using accessibility tags. the XCTest test code sends messages from the iPad via TCP/IP to setup external test equipment. The messages abruptly stopped transmitting across the iPad blood-brain barrier with iPadOS 26.3 (26.2.1 and earlier works fine).
The technique that worked involved installing a helper app with the same bundleID as our app, allowing the helper app to access the network, and when our app runs it has network access through the helper. It’s clever and kludgey.
Forums that we referenced in the past:
https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/663858
TN3179: Understanding local network privacy | Apple Developer Documentation
I suspect that something was changed in 26.3 that closed our window. I need two things: ID what is different in 26.3 and fix the automation system. If there’s a new way for XCUITest code to access the local network I’m happy to try it out.
I don't know if these forums are any good for rumors or plans, but does anybody know whether or not Apple plans to release a library for training reinforcement learning? It would be handy, implementing games in Swift, for example, to be able to train the computer players on the same code.
Two errors in debug: com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog sync and nw_protocol_instance_set_output_handler
We get two error message in Xcode debug. apple.model.catalog we get 1 time at startup, and the nw_protocol_instance_set_output_handler Not calling remove_input_handler on 0x152ac3c00:udp we get on sartup and some time during running of the app. I have tested cutoff repos WS eg. But nothing helpss, thats for the nw_protocol. We have a fondationmodel in a repo but we check if it is available if not we do not touch it.
Please help me?
nw_protocol_instance_set_output_handler Not calling remove_input_handler on 0x152ac3c00:udp
com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog sync: connection error during call: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog was invalidated: Connection init failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog was invalidated: Connection init failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction.} reached max num connection attempts: 1
The function we have in the repo is this:
public actor FoundationRepo: JobDescriptionChecker, SubskillSuggester {
private var session: LanguageModelSession?
private let isEnabled: Bool
private let shouldUseLocalFoundation: Bool
private let baseURLString = "https://xx.xx.xxx/xx"
private let http: HTTPPac
public init(http: HTTPPac, isEnabled: Bool = true) {
self.http = http
self.isEnabled = isEnabled
self.session = nil
guard isEnabled else {
self.shouldUseLocalFoundation = false
return
}
let model = SystemLanguageModel.default
guard model.supportsLocale() else {
self.shouldUseLocalFoundation = false
return
}
switch model.availability {
case .available:
self.shouldUseLocalFoundation = true
case .unavailable(.deviceNotEligible),
.unavailable(.appleIntelligenceNotEnabled),
.unavailable(.modelNotReady):
self.shouldUseLocalFoundation = false
@unknown default:
self.shouldUseLocalFoundation = false
}
}
So here we decide if we are going to use iPhone ML or my backend-remote?

status: Invalid
The Invalid submission (76df3f18) was error 4000 due to unsigned binaries in a bundled framework. That's been fixed in all subsequent submissions.
The app is a small macOS menu bar utility (~2 MB DMG), signed with Developer ID Application certificate, hardened runtime enabled, no restricted entitlements. codesign --verify --deep --strict and spctl --assess --type execute both pass locally.
Is there a known processing delay for first-time Developer ID accounts, or could something be stuck on the backend?
Thanks for any guidance.
Hello,
I recently paid for the Apple Developer Program membership, but I am still being prompted to complete payment as if my subscription has not been processed.
I have already been charged, and the payment appears to have gone through on my end. However, my account still shows an unpaid or inactive status, and I continue to receive payment prompts.
Could you please investigate this issue and confirm that my membership is active? If there is a duplicate charge or a processing error, I would appreciate your assistance in resolving it.
Thank you for your help.

Dear Apple Developer Support Team,
I am writing to request assistance regarding an issue I am experiencing while attempting to enroll in the Apple Developer Program.
Below are the details of the problem:
The enrollment process fails before reaching the payment page.
The message displayed is: “Your enrollment could not be completed.”
The error appears prior to any payment attempt.
Two-factor authentication is enabled on the Apple ID.
Email address and phone number are verified.
The Apple ID being used for enrollment is different from our existing Enterprise account.
We have attempted enrollment using:
A U.S. address
A Indian phone number
A clean browser session (logged out of other Apple accounts)
The existing Apple Enterprise account under our organization is active and functioning without issues.
This new enrollment attempt is for a separate Developer Program account using a different email address.
We have tried multiple browsers and networks, but the issue persists and prevents us from proceeding to payment.
Could you please check whether:
The Apple ID is restricted or flagged in your system?
There are any verification issues preventing enrollment?
Any additional steps are required from our side to complete registration?
Kindly let us know how we can resolve this and proceed with successful enrollment.
Thank you for your assistance.

Hello,
My Apple Developer account is currently stuck in an Individual to Organization migration state.
The organization verification was declined earlier, but the migration flag is still active on my account. Because of this, my membership benefits are temporarily disabled and I cannot submit new app builds for review.
I already contacted Apple Developer Program Support and opened a case.
Case ID: 102826815891
However, I have not received a response yet and my account is still locked in the migration state.
Has anyone experienced this issue before or know how it can be resolved?
Thank you.
Our game application is developed based on StoreKit 1, and an exception occurs on iOS 26.4: after players complete a payment, the finishTransaction method fails to properly remove the transaction from the SKPaymentQueue; as a result, when players restart the app, the system still triggers the retry process for this transaction (reconciliation of unpaid orders).
Has anyone encountered this issue? If there is a solution, we would appreciate it if you could share it with us.

I am working on an e-commerce app (retail/marketplace) that allows users to place orders for both free and paid products. After receiving a DeclaredAgeRange API response — retrieved via the Family Controls / Screen Time framework — indicating that a user is a minor, I want to understand the recommended approach for handling payment flows.
Specifically, is it necessary to block payments for users identified as minors via DeclaredAgeRange, even though our app uses server-side encrypted card processing rather than Apple In-App Purchases (StoreKit)?
Any guidance on best practices or App Store policy requirements for this scenario would be greatly appreciated.

I have the following setup:
UIViewRepresentable with a UIView holding
UIScrollView
ImageView
PKCanvasView
this is in order to make it appear as if you are writing on a paper which you can zoom and scroll. The UIImageView is holding the paper image.
The problem is if you draw some pen strokes at zoom level 1, then zoom in (say zoom level 2) as soon as you place down the pen, the PKCanvasView starts flickering repeatedly very badly. A sample video is here: https://youtube.com/shorts/5zeq6EDheSM
a small sample project showing this is here: https://www.icloud.com/iclouddrive/0a0NSLP4bsism69L7jRtZPIhQ#BugDemo
Hi
One of the new Family Control API's requires the new "Family Controls App & Website Usage" capability but it appears to be missing in the latest Xcode beta (26.4 B2).
MacOS and iOS all running 26.4 Beta 3.
Does anyone know if we have to wait for Xcode 26.4 Beta 3 and it's associated SDK's for this one to become available?
Hello,
I’m experiencing a situation with my app Waspp that I’m trying to understand.
The app was approved by App Review on Feb 24, 2026 and is currently available on the App Store in the United States. However, distribution in the European Union (Belgium and France) is blocked due to the Digital Services Act (DSA) trader verification, which still shows “In Review” in App Store Connect.
Some details:
App Review completed: Feb 24
DSA compliance submitted: Feb 25
Status: Still “In Review” after more than two weeks
Documents requested by Apple Support have already been uploaded via their secure link
App availability shows “Cannot Sell” for Belgium and France
The app is live and downloadable in the US
Because of this, the launch of the app in the EU is currently blocked even though the app itself has been approved.
My questions:
Is it normal for the DSA trader verification to take this long?
Has anyone experienced a similar delay with EU distribution?
Is there anything else that can be done from the developer side to unblock the verification?
Any feedback or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm trying to download the iOS 26.2 simulator, but it fails both in Xcode
and via the command line.
When I run:
xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 26.2 -exportPath ~/Downloads
It returns:
iOS 26.2 is not available for download.
I would like to know:
Why iOS 26.2 simulator cannot be downloaded at the moment.
Whether iOS 26.2 simulator is still available, or if it has been removed or replaced.
How to properly get and install the iOS 26.2 simulator.
Any official explanation or solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Really, for how long will apps continue to get stuck in the 'review queue'? This is demoralizing and bad for organizations and developers behind these projects. Our app has been stuck in the 'waiting for review' zone for over 3 weeks+ now, and despite several emails, nothing has been done. No feedback whatsoever.
Are we going to get a reply? Is this just an Apple thing, like work culture?
Hi everyone,
I'm a developer from China, and my Apple Developer Program membership is currently in the renewal period. When I click the renewal button from the banner at the top of the Apple Developer website, the page redirects but consistently shows a 503 Service Unavailable error. This has been happening for several days now.
I've already tried:
Switching to different devices or
Changing network environments
Unfortunately, the issue persists in all cases.
Has anyone else encountered this same situation? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
