Overview

I'm using the NEHotspostConfigurationManager to join the WiFi network of a configured accessory. While this is all nice and dandy, I wonder why I'm still connected to said WiFi when I (force-)close the app. Wouldn't it be more useful to reconnect to the last network before?

Apps made through .net maui don't work with local networks. I'm using the .net 8 framework, and I followed the app to the ios system through .net Maui after connecting it to the computer through a data cable. When I open the app, I get a request to access the local network and I agree to it. But still my app is not accessible. I have asserted it correctly inside info.plist. How can I fix this issue

We have application using PTT Framework to record audio messages when app is backgrounded. Right now we are using AVAudioRecorder for that purpose. And problem is one specific user has frequent issue - recorded audio contains only silence. I've checked almost everything I can imagine but didn't find any possible reason of issue. Conditions: AVAudioRecorder uses following configuration: [ AVEncoderAudioQualityKey: AVAudioQuality.low.rawValue, AVFormatIDKey : kAudioFormatMPEG4AAC, AVNumberOfChannelsKey: 1, AVSampleRateKey: 16000.0 ] App waits both didBeginTransmitting and didActivate audioSession from PTChannelManager (audio session has playback category at that moment) App does AVAudioSession category change to playAndRecord App gets routeChangeNotification with categoryChange and category = playAndRecord There is no any interruption notifications from AVAudioSession during recording There is no any error notification from AVAudioRecorder Any idea what exactly I do wrong? Is there anything else I should check? Thanks in advance. P.S. it looks like recording audio with AudioUnit has the same issue, but let's exclude it from question atm for simplicity.

Hello, I'm trying to display some Duration in a live activity using a custom format, with the goal of displaying a match time (only minutes) as, e.g. 33', 45' (+2), etc. For that purpose, I'm using a TimeDataSource<Duration>, so that it also updates automatically given a starting point. I've implemented my custom FormatStyle, trying to somehow mimic the existing UnitsFormatStyle (which perfectly works with live activities) but just changing the format. I've added conformance to DiscreteFormatStyle, and code-wise everything seems to be ok (if I've understood things correctly). It compiles and it even works as expected in a playground. However, when trying to use it within the live activity, I'm getting these cryptic errors in the Console.app, and the live activity just turns into a view with placeholders Failed to fetch view from archive at index 12: SwiftUI.AnyCodable<SwiftUI.(unknown context at $1d47f6af0).SafelyCodableRequirement>.(unknown context at $1d47fe410).Errors.noType(mangledName: "7SwiftUI18TimeDataFormattingO10ResolvableVy_AA0cD6SourceVAAE15DurationStorageOys0H0V_GAK28BlickLiveActivitiesExtensionE16MatchFormatStyleVG") [624AEC37-13D9-4927-9F41-C3092B61E214] Failed to return view entry from archive for view model with tag listItem with error: SwiftUI.AnyCodable<SwiftUI.(unknown context at $1d47f6af0).SafelyCodableRequirement>.(unknown context at $1d47fe410).Errors.noType(mangledName: "7SwiftUI18TimeDataFormattingO10ResolvableVy_AA0cD6SourceVAAE15DurationStorageOys0H0V_GAK28BlickLiveActivitiesExtensionE16MatchFormatStyleVG") Are there any limitations when it comes to live activities and these custom formatters? This whole error doesn't make sense, since I'm only aiming to update every minute, which should just be fine, the same thing I get with the UnitsFormatStyle. For reference, this is my playground, which just works as expected: import Foundation import SwiftUI import PlaygroundSupport extension Duration { struct MatchFormatStyle: DiscreteFormatStyle, Sendable { let periodLength: Int let overtime: Int func format(_ value: Duration) -> String { let (seconds, _): (Int64, Int64) = value.components let minutes: Int = Int(seconds) / 60 let current: Int = periodLength + minutes + overtime if current > periodLength { return "\(periodLength)' (+\(current - periodLength))" } else { return "\(current)'" } } func discreteInput(before input: Duration) -> Duration? { let (seconds, _): (Int64, Int64) = input.components let minutes: Int64 = seconds / 60 - 1 return Duration(secondsComponent: minutes * 60, attosecondsComponent: .zero) } func discreteInput(after input: Duration) -> Duration? { let (seconds, _): (Int64, Int64) = input.components let minutes: Int64 = seconds / 60 + 1 return Duration(secondsComponent: minutes * 60, attosecondsComponent: .zero) } } } extension FormatStyle where Self == Duration.MatchFormatStyle { static func matchTime(currentTime: Int, periodLength: Int) -> Duration.MatchFormatStyle { return Duration.MatchFormatStyle(periodLength: periodLength, overtime: max(currentTime - periodLength, .zero)) } } extension TimeDataSource<Date> { static func matchDuration(for currentTime: Int, periodLength: Int) -> TimeDataSource<Duration> { let minutesAhead: Double = Double(max(periodLength - currentTime + 1, .zero)) return TimeDataSource<Date>.durationOffset(to: Date.now.addingTimeInterval(minutesAhead * 60)) } } struct FooView: View { let currentTime: Int = 36 let periodLength: Int = 45 var body: some View { Text( TimeDataSource<Date>.matchDuration(for: currentTime, periodLength: periodLength), format: .matchTime(currentTime: currentTime, periodLength: periodLength) ) .frame(width: 400, height: 200) .font(.system(size: 50)) } } // Present the view controller in the Live View window PlaygroundPage.current.setLiveView(FooView()) Any hints or suggestions are welcome, many thanks in advance.

Hello Apple Developer Team, Based on the mandate to update the APNs certificate by February 24, 2025 for certificate-based authentication, a question from the team has been brought up that maybe Apple or the community can help answer. Since our implementation uses token-based authentication, I’m seeking clarification on a couple of points: 1. Does the certificate update affect token-based connections at all? 2. What is the rationale behind updating certificates for certificate-based authentication, and are there any implications or benefits for developers using token-based authentication? Understanding these details will help us ensure our system remains compliant and optimally configured. Any guidance or further clarification you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

For a component operating as a peripheral in a BLE connection, is it possible to tell if the user taps "Cancel" in the system's pairing request dialog? None of the methods in CBPeripheralManagerDelegate appear to apply.

My question is: Do I need two App IDs? One for my launch daemon in order to sign it properly, allowing it to use the Endpoint Security framework. One for the container app. My understanding is that my existing launch daemon can perform the endpoint security requirements I need. So far, I have had just one App ID for my container app that lives in /Applications. I have applied for the endpoint security restricted entitlement and have this for development now. Do endpoint security items have go in Library/SystemExtension? Can my launch daemon live in Library/LaunchDaemons and still use the Endpoint Security framework?

Hi. I am facing a panic in distributed virtual filesystem of my own making. The panic arises on attempt of copying a large folder, or writing a large file (both around 20gb). An important note here is that the amount of files we try to copy is larger than available space (for testing purposes, the virtual file system had a capacity of 18 gigabytes). The panic arises somewhere on 12-14gigabytes deep into copying. On the moment of panic, there are still several gigabytes of storage left. The problem is present for sure for such architectures and macOS versions: Sonoma 14.7.1 arm64e Monterey 12.7.5 arm64e Ventura 13.7.1 intel Part from panic log from Ventura 13.7.1 intel, with symbolicated addresses: panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff80191a191a): watchdog timeout: no checkins from watchdogd in 90 seconds (48 total checkins since monitoring last enabled) Panicked task 0xffffff907c99f698: 191 threads: pid 0: kernel_task Backtrace (CPU 2), panicked thread: 0xffffff86e359cb30, Frame : Return Address 0xffffffff001d7bb0 : 0xffffff8015e70c7d mach_kernel : _handle_debugger_trap + 0x4ad 0xffffffff001d7c00 : 0xffffff8015fc52e4 mach_kernel : _kdp_i386_trap + 0x114 0xffffffff001d7c40 : 0xffffff8015fb4df7 mach_kernel : _kernel_trap + 0x3b7 0xffffffff001d7c90 : 0xffffff8015e11971 mach_kernel : _return_from_trap + 0xc1 0xffffffff001d7cb0 : 0xffffff8015e70f5d mach_kernel : _DebuggerTrapWithState + 0x5d 0xffffffff001d7da0 : 0xffffff8015e70607 mach_kernel : _panic_trap_to_debugger + 0x1a7 0xffffffff001d7e00 : 0xffffff80165db9a3 mach_kernel : _panic_with_options + 0x89 0xffffffff001d7ef0 : 0xffffff80191a191a com.apple.driver.watchdog : IOWatchdog::userspacePanic(OSObject*, void*, IOExternalMethodArguments*) (.cold.1) 0xffffffff001d7f20 : 0xffffff80191a10a1 com.apple.driver.watchdog : IOWatchdog::checkWatchdog() + 0xd7 0xffffffff001d7f50 : 0xffffff80174f960b com.apple.driver.AppleSMC : SMCWatchDogTimer::watchdogThread() + 0xbb 0xffffffff001d7fa0 : 0xffffff8015e1119e mach_kernel : _call_continuation + 0x2e Kernel Extensions in backtrace: com.apple.driver.watchdog(1.0)[BD08CE2D-77F5-358C-8F0D-A570540A0BE7]@0xffffff801919f000->0xffffff80191a1fff com.apple.driver.AppleSMC(3.1.9)[DD55DA6A-679A-3797-947C-0B50B7B5B659]@0xffffff80174e7000->0xffffff8017503fff dependency: com.apple.driver.watchdog(1)[BD08CE2D-77F5-358C-8F0D-A570540A0BE7]@0xffffff801919f000->0xffffff80191a1fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily(1.4)[D342E754-A422-3F44-BFFB-DEE93F6723BC]@0xffffff8018446000->0xffffff8018447fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.9)[481BF782-1F4B-3F54-A34A-CF12A822C40D]@0xffffff80188b6000->0xffffff80188e7fff Process name corresponding to current thread (0xffffff86e359cb30): kernel_task Boot args: keepsyms=1 Mac OS version: 22H221 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 22.6.0: Thu Sep 5 20:48:48 PDT 2024; root:xnu-8796.141.3.708.1~1/RELEASE_X86_64 The origin of the problem is surely inside my filesystem. However, the panic happens not there but somewhere in watchdog. As far as I can tell, the source code for watchdog is not available for public. I can't understand what causes the panic. Let's say we have run out of space. Couldn't write data. Writing received a proper error message and aborted. That's what is expected. However, it is unclear for why the panic arises.

Given Apple's new .limited contact authorization introduced in ios18, I want to be able to present the ContactAccessPicker directly from my app, via ionic capacitor. I present the .contactAccessPicker view via a UIHostingController, and I manage the view controller's dismissal accordingly when the ContactAccessPicker completes and is no longer presented. Bug: After a few searches or interactions with the Contact Access Picker (ex. searching, selecting contacts, clicking the "show selected" button), the contact access picker crashes and the overlay remains. Any interaction with my app is then blocked because I can't detect that the contact access picker has disappeared when it crashes so I can't dismiss the viewController. Is there a way for me to prevent the contact access picker from crashing, and how can I detect if it does crash, so I can at least dismiss the view controller if that happens? struct ContactAccessPickerView: View { @Binding var isPresented: Bool let completion: @MainActor ([String]) -> Void var body: some View { Group { if #available(iOS 18.0, *) { Color.clear .contactAccessPicker(isPresented: $isPresented) { result in Task { @MainActor in completion(result) } } } else { } } } } @objc func selectMoreContacts(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { guard isContactsPermissionGranted() else { call.resolve(["success": false]) return } // Save the call to ensure it's available until we finish self.bridge?.saveCall(call) DispatchQueue.main.async { [weak self] in guard let self = self else { return } var isPresented = true let picker = ContactAccessPickerView(isPresented: .init(get: { isPresented }, set: { isPresented = $0 })) { contacts in call.resolve(["success": true]) self.dismissAndCleanup(call) } let hostingController = UIHostingController(rootView: picker) hostingController.modalPresentationStyle = .overFullScreen self.bridge?.viewController?.present(hostingController, animated: true) } }

My swiftUI project has started to constantly display "Cannot find 'symbol' in scope" errors in code i haven't touched, and the project still compiles fine. Neither cleaning build folder or compiling fix the errors, but if I right click the symbol, select "jump to definition" it will find it without problem and then when I return to the original file the error will be cleared. What can I do to stop these from happening?

My question is simple, I do not have much experience in writing swift code, I am only doing it to create a small executable that I can call from my python application which completes Subcription Management. I was hoping someone with more experience could point out my flaws along with giving me tips on how to verify that the check is working for my applicaiton. Any inight is appreciated, thank you. import Foundation import StoreKit class SubscriptionValidator { static func getReceiptURL() -> URL? { guard let appStoreReceiptURL = Bundle.main.appStoreReceiptURL else { print("No receipt found.") return nil } return appStoreReceiptURL } static func validateReceipt() -> Bool { guard let receiptURL = getReceiptURL(), let receiptData = try? Data(contentsOf: receiptURL) else { print("Could not read receipt.") return false } let receiptString = receiptData.base64EncodedString() let validationResult = sendReceiptToApple(receiptString: receiptString) return validationResult } static func sendReceiptToApple(receiptString: String) -> Bool { let isSandbox = Bundle.main.appStoreReceiptURL?.lastPathComponent == "sandboxReceipt" let urlString = isSandbox ?

Is there a way to upload the Test Details>"What to Test" information alongside TestFlight builds without using Xcode Cloud? We'd like to be able to have this be part of our build automation process.

When my app launches, it makes maybe 9 or so network requests to load initial data. It also reads some data from disc. Sporadically, I'm seeing an issue where some of the network requests succeed, but anything involving reading from disc does not load immediately. I'm able to move around in the app, tap buttons, swap tabs, swipe pages, so my main actor isn't stuck. Other data that don't involve disc reading / writing is also blank. About 2 minutes in, suddenly everything loads (both stuff from disc and stuff from the network), nearly instantly, the way it should have done when the app launched. Server logs show more initial network requests succeed than we can see data loaded in the app, and then about 2 minutes later, there's a flood of the rest of the requests which then succeed. The responses to some of these initial network requests cause us to make other network requests, and the sever sees some of those start right away. However, other consequences of these first requests are to touch the disc (to search for manually-cached data), and anything that is supposed to happen after that does not succeed until the 2 minute mark. But what bothers me is some things in the app which don't touch the disc also seem to have successful network requests. I'm seeing it on an iPhone 14Pro running iOS 18.2.1, with 607 GB of disc space available. When I take screenshots of the loading screens in my app during the apparent freeze, the clock in the screenshots are right - they reflect the clock at the moment I took the screenshot, but the EXIF data in all dozen or so images shows the exact second 2 minutes later when the server gets the resulting flood of network requests. Screenshots taken after the freeze is over have exif timestamps that match the screenshots, as short as 5 seconds after the freeze ends. The screenshot file names, though sequential, are out of order. for instance, some screenshots from 12:58 have file names numbered after screenshots taken at 12:59. but not all are out of order. This seems like disc contention has spread outside the app, and is impacting the system writing the images to disc. How do I diagnose a cause for this? How does disc contention affect the networking? I have caching turned off for my network requests. We only have a manual image cache, but I don't know how that would stall the display of data that should fetch and display without attempting to hit the image cache. This happens maybe a couple of times a day for some people, maybe once every couple of weeks for others, but of course, it never when we're trying to debug it.

I am creating a voip app, I am trying to use call kit to answer calls, however audio doesn't seem to work when using callKit when looking at the systems logs I see no server connection when checking background audio state, won't allow background audio! background audio processAllowed = 0 for displayID com.apple.TelephonyUtilities no server connection when checking background audio state, won't allow background audio! background audio processAllowed = 0 for displayID {my app id} I have the plist entries for background ui modes for voip, audio, fetch and background notifications along with the backgrounds modes for Voip, Audio, AirPlay, and Picture in Picture, Background notifications. I am unsure what to do about this, like my reading of the error is I can't use audio cause I am not connected to a server, but like is it any server, Am I suppose to connect to the voip call before setting up audio, I am not sure how to do that.

I am trying to recreate the iOS Messages app photo selection UI, where a PHPickerViewController is displayed half screen, with the message text field and a scrolling photo viewer on top. I have that UI mostly working, but cannot figure out how to allow a user to remove an image from my scrolling photo viewer (just like in the iOS Messages app). When the picker is initially displayed, I can show selected images using the preselectedAssetIdentifiers. However, if the user taps the "x" to remove an image from the scrolling photo viewer, there is no way that I have found to update that selection in the picker. I can dismiss/show a new picker with the animated property set to false, but that creates a very apparent bounce in the screen. Are there any ways I am missing to accomplish this? Here is what I have so far:

Hey, Why is it taking so long for the processing for distribution? It's been a week since I manually released it.

Please help! I have a subscription IAP failing on tvOS 18.2 at: func makePurchase(_ product: Product) async throws { let result = try await product.purchase() //ERROR OCCURS HERE (See error message below) ... Xcode Console message: "Could not get confirmation scene ID for [insert my IAP id here]" The IAP subscription was working fine on 18.1 and earlier, and the same IAP and code is also running fine on iOS 18.2. The tvOS error on 18.2 happens both in production and sandbox. Are there any changes to StoreKit 2 which might cause this error?

I am getting recurring errors running code on macOS 15.1 on arm that is using a volume mounted from a machine running macOS 14.7.1 on x86. The code I am running copies files to the remote volume and deletes files and directories on the remote volume. The files and directories it deletes are typically files it previously had copied. The problem is that I get permission failures trying to delete certain directories. After this happens, if I try to list the directory using Terminal on the 15.1 system, I get a strange error: ls -lA TestVAppearances.app/Contents/runtime-arm/Contents total 0 ls: fts_read: Permission denied If I try to list the directory on the target (14.7.1) system, there is no error: TestVAppearances.app/Contents/runtime-arm/Contents: total 0

Hi Folks, We are reading the USB device data from our app using libusb/iokit libraries. Before updating the MacOS to the 15.3 we never faced any issue but after updating OS to 15.3 Sequoia we started facing issue to access the USB device's information. We are not getting the device endpoints for the matching service and fails with below error- Error:Failed to create IOUSBHostObject. with reason: IOServiceOpen failed.
