is there a way to make a test subscription in-app purchase expire immediately, for faster testing? it seems exceedingly complicated to test subscriptions if we have to a) wait until the next day for expiry, or b) keep on creating new apple ids to get into a fully unsubscribed state? it is still kind of madness testing this stuff, after all the years it has been available.

Has anyone seen this issue? We have a user who changed their Apple ID password about 5 days ago. Now when they authenticate via MusicKit JS: authorize() succeeds and returns a user token Immediately calling any /me/ endpoint returns 403 Invalid authentication (code 40300) Developer token works fine on catalog endpoints User has active Apple Music subscription Other users work fine through the same flow App doesn't appear in user's Apps Using Your Apple ID We've tried: Calling unauthorize() before authorize() Clearing localStorage/sessionStorage/cookies Multiple re-auth attempts over several days The token is freshly issued but Apple's API immediately rejects it. Anyone encountered this after a password change? Any workarounds?

I recently had my developer account terminated. In the final termination email, it said: If applicable, no further payments will be made to you pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Paid Applications agreement (Schedules 2 and 3 to the ADP Agreement). I've talked to multiple different developers who also had 3.2f account terminations. Some of them say that they got all their remaining earnings paid out 3-6 months later. Others have said that Apple just kept the money forever. How can I find out if Apple will pay me my account's remaining balance? When I got the original pending termination notice, I was still able to log into App Store Connect to view everything. But immediately after I got the final termination notice email, I could no longer even log into App Store Connect. Could anybody please help me? I'm dependent on the unpaid earnings as a young 21 indie developer. Thank you!! :)

I develop and maintain an app for craft breweries. It is very clearly 18+ due to frequent references of alcohol. Integrating DeclaredAgeRange is pretty straightforward, I should ask for the age signal, and check / require the user to be 18+ to align with my app terms of service. Under the limit, user declined, and unavailable, YOU SHALL NOT PASS. The moment that I introduce the concept of having an 'admin' or 'brewery mode' of that same public app, things break down. Why? Because I would be enabling this brewery or admin mode to run when the app is installed via MDM, and configured via MDM. The downside of this strategy is that Business Essentials for as long as it has listed, has not supported app-based configuration. Neither the legacy configuration, nor the new ManagedApp framework configuration.

Hi, I have an Apple Watch Only app that you can download for free and conduct a 7 day trial. After that, there is an IAP to unlock a lifetime license. For the life of me I can't find out how the process of redeeming promo codes for the IAP should work. Once generated, people try to redeem them in the AppStore (on their phone), but then they end up in a hanging process saying it's reinstalling the app to redeem the offer. But then nothing happens. Also running Restore Purchase within the app to pickup any maybe by now activated license is not working. Why does it even want to reinstall the (free) app? This doesn't sound right. Does anyone have IAP for a watch-only app and can shed some light on the promo code topic?

Trying to support undo & redo in an app that utilizes Swift Data and as with anything other than provided simplistic Apple demo examples the experience is not great. The problem: Im trying to build functionality that allows users to add items to an item group, where item and item group have a many-to-many relationship e.g. item group can hold many items and items can appear in multiple groups. When trying to do so with relatively simple setup of either adding or removing item group from items relationship array, I am pretty consistently met with a hard crash after performing undo & redo. Sometimes it works the first few undo & redos but 95% of the time would crash on the first one. Could not cast value of type 'Swift.Optional' (0x20a676be0) to 'Swift.Array' (0x207a2bc08). Where CodableStructModel is a Codable Value type inside Item. Adding and removing this relationship should be undoable & redoable as typical for Mac interaction and is supported by SwiftData by default, meaning that

My app utilizes background audio to play music files. I have the audio background mode enabled and I initialize the AVAudioSession in playback mode with the mixWithOthers option. And it usually works great while the app is backgrounded. I listen for audio interruptions as well as route changes and I am able to handle them appropriately and I can usually resume my background audio no problem. I discovered an issue while connected to CarPlay though. Roughly 50% of the time when I disconnect from a phone call while connected to CarPlay I get the following error after calling the play() method of my AVAudioPlayer instance: ATAudioSessionClientImpl.mm:281 activation failed. status = 561015905 If I instead try to start a new audio session I get a similar error: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=561015905 Session activation failed UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Session activation failed} Like I said, this isn't reproducible 100% of the time and is so far only seen while connected to CarPlay. I don't think Im
