Popping Sound

I've been aware for some time that Push notifications work on the iOS simulator now -- I see them pop up while I'm working. However, it would seem that SILENT push notifications do not work. I came to this conclusion only after several frustrating hours of debugging my app, thinking either the app was broken or the server wasn't sending the notification. Finally I tested it on a device and found that it actually works fine. Why does such a limitation exist? If I can't depend on the simulator to handle ALL of the notifications, I'd rather it didn't work at all. Having it work part of the time on some notifications is really confusing.

Hi, My app has an IAP and the view that let user to purchase is simply a ProductView. The purchase flow should be handled by the ProductView itself. I have tested the app with xcode storekit configuration, xcode run with sandbox account and also TestFlight environment as well. The purchase is triggered and the app feature is unlocked after purchase. However, I keep getting app review team feedback with the following problem: Bug description: the purchase button is greyed out after we tapped on it, however, there's no purchase flow popped up I have tried multiple things. Building with xcode cloud, removing the storekit configuration from the build scheme. But none can get the app review team to get through the problem. The IAP is not available in certain region. In that case, the app will show a message. However, the app review attached an screenshot which shows the product view. The view that allow users to purchase if let product = store.products.first(where: { $0.id == com.***.xxxxxxx }) { // If th

I've tried following apple's documentation to apply a video material on a Model Entity, but I have encountered a compile error while attempting to specify the Spatial Audio type. It is a 360 video on a Sphere which plays just fine, but the audio is too quiet compared to the volume I get when I preview the video on Xcode. So I tried tried to configure audio playback mode on the material but it gives me a compile error: audioInputMode' is unavailable in visionOS audioInputMode' has been explicitly marked unavailable here RealityFoundation.VideoPlaybackController.audioInputMode) https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/videomaterial/ Code: let player = AVPlayer(url: url) // Instantiate and configure the video material. let material = VideoMaterial(avPlayer: player) // Configure audio playback mode. material.controller.audioInputMode = .spatial // this line won’t compile. VisionOS 2.4, Xcode 16.4, also tried Xcode 26 beta 2. The videos are HEVC MPEG-4 codecs. Is the

Hi, I am curious about if hyperthreading is enabled/disabled on my macbook pro M1 or M4. Howto figure out? I am using macOS 15.5. Further, I develop a multi-threaded audio sequencer that creates threads per instrument. I use vector operations to increase performance. I recognized lowering synchronization rate from 250 Hz to 60 Hz gives additional performance advantages. Howto programmatically check if Hyperthreading is enabled/disabled and howto enable/disable it programmatically? After some research I found sysctl() and nvram SMTDisable=%01. https://support.apple.com/en-us/101870 Can anyone provide me an Objective C example? regards, Joël

I have a small .mov I created using screenshot and I want to use it as a preview. I have managed to resize it to the required 1920x1080, added a sound track using ffmpeg (home-brew), drop it into an iMovie App preview project, share it as a file, drag that file to App Store Connect/Apps/myApp/App previews and Screenshots only to have it rejected for frame rate too high, 30 fps required. There appears to be no way to specify frame rate in Screenshot nor iMovie during share. Aside from using a third party app Handbrake to edit the file, what can be done? Maybe more importantly, why is 30 fps required when it isn't a standard output of screenshot nor iMovie/AppPreviewProject ? btw: iMovie/AppPreview/Help shows submittal of non-1920x1080 files to AppStoreConnect
