Apple Maps Guides

You can find your answer on the submission form. You select your runtime environment using a popup, and below that popup is this text: Xcode app playgrounds are run in Simulator. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = eskimo + 1 + @ + apple.com

First up, I want to be clear about terminology. You don’t sign code with a certificate, you sign it with a digital identity, that is, the combination of a certificate and its associated private key. There’s no need to protect the certificate; it’s the private key that matters. I talk more about this in TN3161 Inside Code Signing: Certificates. Second, the Secure Enclave (SE) doesn’t store private keys. Rather, you protect a private key with the SE. The SE generates the private key and returns it wrapped in a way so that only that SE can use it. You then send key operations, like ‘sign this blob with this wrapped key’, to the SE, it internally unwraps the key, does the operation, and returns you the result. So the unwrapped key material never leaves the SE, but it’s not stored in the SE. Note This is how the SE works but it’s not true for other hardware-based keys. Notably, with a smart card the private key is actually stored on the smart card itself. Folks using the smart card don’t work with a wrapped key, t

I just attached an allocation trace to the FB I run with my productive app on macOS 26.2. Instruments is showing a peak of 128 MB allocated memory, while Activity Monitor is showing approx. 50 MB on macOS 15. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to collect a similar allocation trace with macOS 15.6.1: It's running in a VM, and due to restrictions of virtual machines I cannot register my Apple development account for proper application signing - but I'm happy to go this extra mile if DTS was able to provide related instructions. Looking forward to any response in the ticket...

[Different DTS engineer here; I’m picking up this thread because it’s directly aligned with my area of expertise.] [quote='876554022, Tenjikato, /thread/815899?answerId=876554022#876554022, /profile/Tenjikato'] it does not appear in Xcode Organizer. [/quote] Right. The issue here is that you have a third-party crash reporter installed and it’s failing to preserve the Apple crash report. Let’s look at the backtrace in your first post: Crashed: com.apple.main-thread 0 KSCrash … ksmemory_notifyUnhandledFatalSignal + 12 1 KSCrash … handleSignal + 100 2 libsystem_platform.dylib … _sigtramp + 56 3 libsystem_kernel.dylib … mach_msg2_internal + 76 4 libsystem_kernel.dylib … mach_msg_overwrite + 428 5 libsystem_kernel.dylib … mach_msg + 24 6 CoreFoundation … __CFRunLoopServiceMachPort + 160 7 CoreFoundation … __CFRunLoopRun + 1188 8 CoreFoundation … _CFRunLoopRunSpecificWithOptions + 532 9 GraphicsServices … GSEventRunModal + 120 10 UIKitCore … -[UIApplication _run] + 792 Frames 10 through 3 are all standard

We just posted a TN3179 update with info about the AllowedEthernetLocalNetworkAddresses and AllowedWiFiLocalNetworkAddresses user defaults. I think this might be useful in your situation, where you have limited control over the software involved but deep control over the Mac on which it runs.

I'm in the same situation. I submitted a week ago an app update. It stays in review since then with no updates whatsoever. I submitted a support case yesterday but no response either. It's really annoying. Apple has no shame asking for 99euros/dollars subscription a year but in return they are not able to provide proper support.

Same here. New app, Apple ID: 6748582437. Today is day 5 and nothing seems to move. In the past I had apps approved in a matter of hours!

For what it's worth, I filed another feedback report (https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/21980712) with Apple, with as simple an example as I could craft.

Hi, thanks for posting this — I've been hitting the exact same wall. I'm building a screen time management app and spent considerable time trying to persist per-app usage data from the DeviceActivityReportExtension to the App Group container. I exhaustively tested every storage mechanism available: Core Data, JSON files, UserDefaults (App Group suite), Keychain, raw POSIX syscalls, SQLite, iCloud KV, and NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore. All fail with permission errors — the extension is completely write-locked at the kernel level (POSIX errno 1 / EPERM). I also confirmed the DeviceActivityMonitor extension has the same restriction. So I'm very interested in your finding that the host app can reconstruct raw activity data from the report. Could you share more about the technique you used? Specifically: How does your host app access the data from the report extension? Is it through the rendered view hierarchy, some callback mechanism, or something else entirely? Are you able to get per-app bundle identifiers and dura

Thanks for this awesome post. Yes, low power will trigger the device to go night night if possible. This is a great post for other developers to provide tips and ticks how to keep the device awake on a recording session. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiapplication/isidletimerdisabled Your approach of setting is indeed the standard way to achieve this. However, certain power management features, like Adaptive Power Mode, can override these settings, as you've observed. Ensure that you have an active configured while recording. This typically helps in signaling to the system that media capture is in progress, which should naturally prevent the device from sleeping. Unfortunately, iOS doesn't provide public APIs to directly detect Adaptive Power Mode specifically. However, you can check for Low Power Mode . While this doesn't exactly map to Adaptive Power Mode, it can still be useful for alerting users. Since detecting Adaptive Power Mode isn't directly possible, consider displaying a

Thank you for your post. I must admit that I am not entirely clear on your question regarding creating a Live Activity for a remote hosting environment. I believe I may have misunderstood your inquiry. Could you please provide me with additional details to clarify your objectives? As currently, Live Activities are designed primarily for iOS devices, and they appear on the Lock Screen and Control Center. December 16, 2025 Updated guidance for all platforms, and added guidance for macOS and CarPlay. https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/live-activities/ If you want to bring Live Activities to Apple Watch: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2024/10068/ Including the documentation for the live activities guide.
