“build disappears”

I recently released version 8.5.4 (build 188) using Cloud Build. During testing via TestFlight, the app worked correctly on an iPhone 6 running iOS 12.5.8. However, after the app was published on the App Store, I found that the same version does not open at all on iOS 12 devices. Previously, earlier versions (such as 8.5.3) were functioning properly on iOS 12. My app’s minimum deployment target is set to iOS 12.0. This issue appears only with the App Store version, while the TestFlight version works fine on the same device. Due to this, I have paused the phased release of version 8.5.4 to prevent further impact on users still running iOS 12. I would like guidance on the following: 1. Has there been any recent change or limitation affecting apps targeting iOS 12 on the App Store? 2. Is there a way to prevent iOS 12 users from downloading version 8.5.4 while allowing them to continue using version 8.5.3? 3. Is there any recommended approach to ensure compatibility or restrict distribution base

Hello, I am building an audio player app in SwiftUI and trying to recreate the behavior of Apple Music's mini player and full player. I'm struggling to get the animation to seamlessly transition between the mini player and the full player. Currently, it feels disconnected and doesn't resemble the smooth animation seen in Apple Music. What I want to achieve: Full player that expands/collapses from/to the mini player Smooth artwork transition between both states Drag down to collapse the full player Support both newer APIs like tabViewBottomAccessory and older iOS versions Questions: What is the best way to build this transition in SwiftUI? Should I use matchedGeometryEffect or something else? Should this be a custom container instead of fullScreenCover? How would you support both new and older iOS versions? What is the best way to implement drag to dismiss? Thanks for any help! Example code: struct ContentView: View { @State private var isFullPlayerPresented = false var body: some View { TabV

Shouldn't it be supported? Also is there a way to disable spotlight indexing on a mounted folder? mds_stores is going wild on fskit volumes. mount -o nobrowse -t passthrough ~/Downloads ~/mnt alexf@MacBook-Pro-3 build % mount file:///Users/alexf/Downloads/ on /Users/alexf/mnt (passthrough, local, nodev, nosuid, noowners, noatime, fskit, mounted by alexf)```

Hi, I'm in urgent need of help as I'm continuously building an app for my daughter who has diabetes type 1. The app helps her with her insulin, it's called Loop. Anyway, this time I discovered that my Apple Developer Account is expired. I don't understand why, at the same time and under the same account it states that my next payment is due in June 2026. And in my iPhone the subscription is still active. Regardless of all this; my question is: how do I get my account - my same account - active again, once it turned expired? The renewal button isn't there, I can't find a way to simply get the account going again. Really stressed out due to the medical thing. Please, help.

I uploaded the first build of a new app, waited a week to get In Review. Then got rejected for a missing piece of metadata. I accidentally checked a box indicating I had age-related content which I don't - so I unchecked it, and replied to app review. A message came back the same day asking me to do what I just told them I did. I replied that I had already followed the required steps. Then just nothing for five days. I have no idea if my review was even progressing - with the status Waiting for Review and Unresolved issues. So I had no choice but to cancel the submission and start over. Having been an iOS developer for more than ten years, App Review times have gotten completely unacceptable - to develop an application and have no idea how many weeks it's going to take to crawl through App Review only to be rejected for some trivial checkbox, and get kicked to the back of the queue.

Hello, I would really appreciate if someone from Apple could take a look at this, as I believe there may be an issue with my submission or account. I submitted my app for review for the first time over a month ago, and it has been stuck in “Waiting for Review” ever since, with absolutely no updates. This delay is far beyond the typical review timeframes (which are usually just a few days). I have not received any rejection, feedback, or request for additional information. So far, I have already: Resubmitted the build Sent multiple support requests through App Store Connect Requested an expedited review (which was approved) Despite all of this, there has been no progress at all. I have also sent several support messages and emails, but unfortunately I have not received any response so far. It feels like my case is not being reviewed at all, which makes it very difficult to understand what is going wrong. The app is quite standard and does not contain anything that should require extended review. At th

Trying out the new package trait support in Xcode 26.4 and it seems like the default traits for the package are being enabled even when explicitly set to disabled. At first I thought it was something wonky in the Xcode UI around the new support for traits. I've been able to replicate the issue with just two Swift packages, so no Xcode UI for setting the traits. Feature package // swift-tools-version: 6.3 import PackageDescription let package = Package( name: MyAwesomeFeature, platforms: [ .macOS(.v26) ], products: [ .library( name: MyAwesomeFeature, targets: [MyAwesomeFeature] ) ], traits: [ .trait(name: SomeBetaFeature), .default(enabledTraits: [SomeBetaFeature]), ], targets: [ .target( name: MyAwesomeFeature ), ], swiftLanguageModes: [.v6] ) For the sake of testing I've given it a simple object that just prints if the trait is enabled Inside MyAwesomeFeature public struct SomeObject { func printTraitStatus() { #if SomeBetaFeature print(Beta feature enabled) #else print(Beta feature disabled) #endif } } I th

The title says it all, and I've filed FB FB22353950 that includes an Xcode 26.4 Screen Saver test project, QT movie demonstrating the error, and a PDF with complete steps to build and test. I'm asking here just to learn if this sounds familiar. The SS built on 26.4 fails in 26.4, works fine on 26.3.1. I'll supply the test files if there's interest. Thanks.

Is it possible to build localization into console apps, developed in SwiftUI in Xcode26. I have created a catalog, (.xcstrings file) with an English and fr-CA string. I have tried to display the French text without success. I am using the console app to test a package which also has English/French text. English text works fine in both package and the console main, but I cannot generate the French. From what I can discover so far it's not possible without bundling it as a .app, (console app). Looking for anyone who has crossed this bridge.
