A Summary of the WWDC25 Group Lab

Hi, I am developing a iOS app with Packet Tunnel Provider Network Extension. I manage signing manually. I created a distribution provisioning profile. Then when I archive and click validate I get this error: Your application bundle's signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported on iOS. Specifically, value 'url-filter-provider' for key 'com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension' So I run security cms -D -i profiles/vpn_distribution.mobileprovision and I see there Entitlements com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension app-proxy-provider content-filter-provider packet-tunnel-provider dns-proxy dns-settings relay url-filter-provider hotspot-provider Where are those coming from. My entitlement file has com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension packet-tunnel-provider com.apple.security.application-groups group.my-app-group What is happening here. How can I get a provisioning profile that only has the entitlements that I actually need?

HI, I am currently developing an app that utilizes Wi-Fi Aware. According to the Wi-Fi Aware framework examples and the WWDC25 session on Wi-Fi Aware, discovery is handled using DevicePairingView and DevicePicker from the DeviceDiscoveryUI module. However, these SwiftUI views present their connection UI modally when tapped. My app's design requires the ability to control the presentation of this UI programmatically, rather than relying on a user tap. While inspecting the DeviceDiscoveryUI module, I found DDDevicePairingViewController and DDDevicePickerViewController, which appear to be the UIViewController counterparts to the SwiftUI views. The initializer for DDDevicePairingViewController accepts a ListenerProvider, so it seems I can pass the same ListenerProvider instance that is used with the DevicePairingView. However, the initializer for DDDevicePickerViewController requires an NWBrowser.Descriptor, which seems incompatible with the parameters used for the SwiftUI DevicePicker. I have two main q

I'm developing an App that works with BLE connection based devices. The BLE connection process, which connects well to the iPhone 16 without any problems, has not worked at all since the iPhone 17. Even when using the same iOS26 version, iPhone 17 is the only one having problems. Progress is stuck after frame 124 in the entire snoop below. Please check if it is a known problem or if there is a solution. 123 2025-11-04 02:01:39.262000 0.000000 localhost () 7c:c6:b6:91:10:04 () ATT 12 Sent Exchange MTU Response, Server Rx MTU: 232 124 2025-11-04 02:01:39.265000 0.003000 localhost () 7c:c6:b6:91:10:04 () ATT 16 Sent Read By Group Type Request, GATT Primary Service Declaration, Handles: 0x0001..0xffff

Colombia is not yet listed as a Tap to Pay user, but it is in the process of becoming so. We are currently a group of developers at a company in Colombia working on a project to integrate Tap to Pay into our application. After reviewing Apple's documentation, my company is not certified to meet Apple's security requirements, PCI standards, or licensing requirements. However, the payment service provider we have contracted for this is in the process of obtaining the certifications, authorizations, and licenses that Apple specifies. Our team members and managers overseeing this Tap to Pay project have told us that we, as iOS developers, should integrate and use the Proximity Reader API, but we know that we, as developers, are not authorized by Apple to do so. Is the payment service provider the only one who can make this possible, enabling its use with NFC and Proximity Reader? I would like to know if the service provider will provide us with the SDK containing the Proximity Reader API for integration

Hello, I’m experiencing an issue with email deliverability when sending messages through Apple’s private email relay service. Our app uses “Sign in with Apple” and sends communication emails to users through relay addresses . Messages are successfully delivered but are consistently being placed in users’ spam or junk folders. Configuration summary: Domain: myapp.example Mail server: OVH SMTP SPF and DKIM: Active and validated Domain and sender registered under “Sign in with Apple for Email Communication” Messages pass SPF and DKIM checks successfully, but emails relayed by Apple’s private service are still being marked as spam. Could anyone confirm if there are additional steps or configurations required to improve deliverability (e.g., DMARC alignment or specific header requirements)? Thank you for your help!

I know it was not possible previously, but wonder have things changed to support transfer of apps with this condition: Sandboxed Group Container You can only transfer sandboxed apps that are not sharing a group container. Our old company is having some issues and cannot continue, and would like to transfer to another company without doing the binary reassignment process which loses all the reviews. Thank you!

Hi, a short question really, which boils down to... How do I make sure I have removed all usage of app groups in my Mac app store app, such that the Mac app store agrees I have! Fundamentally, what I'm trying to do is transfer my app to another developer. In previous releases of this app on the App Store, I used a shared app group container to communicate between the main app and it's (embedded) XPC service, but this blocks App Store transfer of the app to another developer. So I came up with another approach for the App and XPC service to communicate (using a URL bookmark for security scoped files to be passed to the XPC service). And then tried various things to get the app store to accept that I'm no longer using app groups. So far with no luck... removed the app groups entitlements by hand from the entitlements files used to sign the main app and the XPC service, respectively. when that didn't work, go into the Developer Portal, find the app ids for the main app and the

I'm experiencing a critical issue with SwiftData custom migrations where objects created during migration appear to be inserted successfully but aren't persisted or found by queries after migration completes. The migration logs show objects being created, but subsequent queries return zero results. I'm migrating from schema version V2 to V2_5, which involves: Renaming Person class to GroupData Keeping the same data structure but changing the class name while keeping the old class. Using a custom migration stage to copy data from old to new schema Below is an extract of my two schema and migration plan: Environment: Xcode 16.0, iOS 18.0, Swift 6.0 SchemaV2 enum LinkMapV2: VersionedSchema { static let versionIdentifier: Schema.Version = .init(2, 0, 0) static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [AnnotationData.self, Person.self, History.self] } @Model final class Person { @Attribute(.unique) var id: UUID var name: String var photo: String var requirement: String var statue: Bool var annotationId: UUID? var

Game Controller Input Limitations in visionOS Volumetric Windows Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm developing a game for visionOS and have encountered significant limitations with game controller input when using volumetric windows (WindowGroup with .volumetric style). I'd appreciate clarification on whether this is expected behavior and any guidance on best practices. 🧩 Issue Summary When using a DualSense controller with a volumetric window in visionOS, only a subset of controller inputs are available to the app. The remaining inputs appear to be reserved by the system for UI navigation. ✅ Working Inputs (Volumetric Window) D-Pad (all directions) L3 (left thumbstick button click) R3 (right thumbstick button click) Menu button Options button ❌ Not Working Inputs (Volumetric Window) Left thumbstick analog movement (used for UI scrolling instead) Right thumbstick analog movement (used for UI scrolling instead) Face buttons (Cross, Circle, Square, Triangle / A, B, X, Y) Shoulder buttons (L1, R1) Tr
