“show when run”

We've put in a feedback assistant request, but not sure if we will get feedback in that channel or not and also want to highlight for others. When replacing a basic passcode profile on a macOS device with a passcode declaration, the user is required to change the password after logging out and back in. Explicitly including the ChangeAtNextAuth key set equal to false, set required a password change after logging out and back in. Once the declaration is active and the password has been changed, future updates to the passcode declaration do not require a password change unless the existing password is not compliant. Steps to reproduce: Install a basic passcode profile on a macOS device Ensure the existing password matches the requirements specified in the profile Install a passcode declaration with the same settings as the passcode profile currently installed Remove the traditional passcode profile from the device After the passcode declaration is installed, check the local pwpolicy with the command pwpolicy get

When use Q-encoded to handle non-ASCII characters, if raw characters start with non-ASCII, we will get encoded like '=?UTF-8?Q?=XX=XX?='. IOS(>26) Mail App may think the first '?=' end of the '=?UTF-8?Q?=' is then end flag, so show incorrectly.

Hi, We have a macOS app that uses NETransparentProxyManager (Transparent App Proxy) with a NETunnelProviderExtension. The Network Extension is configured and deployed via an MDM configuration profile. The profile is pushed through Intune MDM as a user-enrolled device (Company Portal enrollment, not ADE/supervised). The MDM profile sets up the Transparent Proxy extension as follows (sanitized snippet): VPNType TransparentProxy TransparentProxy ProviderType app-proxy ProviderBundleIdentifier com.example.app.tunnel ProviderDesignatedRequirement identifier com.example.app.tunnel and anchor apple generic and certificate leaf[subject.OU] = TEAMID RemoteAddress 100.64.0.0 PayloadScope System What we do in code: Call NETransparentProxyManager.loadAllFromPreferences — this correctly returns the MDM-managed profile (1 profile found) We do not call saveToPreferences — the profile already exists We call NEVPNConnection.startVPNTunnel() to connect and NEVPNConnection.stopVPNTunnel() to disconnect Problem: On a user-enro

Attempts to create Swift Playgrounds from the built-in templates fail. Clicking the “Get” button on these templates appears to download something, but it changes back into a “Get” button afterwards without creating a playground. Furthermore, the Swift versions of the templates seem to be behind; it shows Swift 5.8 and Swift 5.9 editions whereas it should be Swift 6.x Steps to Reproduce Start the Swift Playground app (the standalone app, not the Xcode one, on macOS or iPadOS). Select “Learn to Code” Choose the “Get Started With Code” template (or any other template will do). Click the Get button. Wait until the Get button becomes a circular progress indicator. Expected Results A new Swift Playground should be created from the selected template. Actual Results The Get button changes into a circular progress indicator and then changes back. No Playground gets created. Versions Swift Playground 4.7 (2088) macOS 26.4.1 (25E253) iPadOS 26.4.2

Hello Apple Developer Forums, We are building an iOS app that needs to receive images and PDFs shared from the system share sheet. The sources include Screenshots, Photos, Files, and third-party apps. The desired user experience is similar to apps such as ChatGPT or Claude: when the user taps our app in the share sheet, the main containing app opens and starts importing or uploading the shared image or PDF. We are trying to understand the supported public API for this behavior. Why opening the containing app is important For our use case, it is important that the containing app opens during the share flow. The import/upload operation depends on the user’s authenticated session. If the Share Extension attempts to upload the file directly, the auth token available to the extension could be missing, expired, or invalid. We would prefer not to make the Share Extension responsible for authentication-dependent behavior such as: validating the user session refreshing tokens handling expired credentials presenting lo

Hi there, I have an SwiftUI app that opens a user selected audio file (wave). For each audio file an additional file exists containing events that were extracted from the audio file. This additional file has the same filename and uses the extension bcCalls. I load the audio file using FileImporter view modifier and within access the audio file with a security scoped bookmark. That works well. After loading the audio I create a CallsSidecar NSFilePresenter with the url of the audio file. I make the presenter known to the NSFileCoordinator and upon this add it to the FileCoordinator. This fails with NSFileSandboxingRequestRelatedItemExtension: Failed to issue extension for; Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=3 No such process My Info.plist contains an entry for the document with NSIsRelatedItemType set to YES I am using this kind of FilePresenter code in various live apps developed some years ago. Now when starting from scratch on a fresh macOS26 system with most current Xcode I do not manage to get it running

Hi, We are seeing a reproducible issue when presenting SKStoreProductViewController in our production app context. For a quick summary, presenting and dismissing SKStoreProductViewController on iOS 15/16 can leave our app in a visually corrupted state (black/empty/orphaned-looking UI). On iOS 18/26 (presumably every iOS version in between), the same flow works correctly. What we verified dealloc is not called for our affected view controllers. During StoreKit lifecycle, VC hierarchy is logically valid: window.rootViewController remains stable. presented chain remains expected. SKStoreProductViewController becomes top-presented and dismisses normally as logged in the delegate. In the xcode view hieararchy, only the UITransitionView and UIDropShadowView are present. Our app content VCs are no longer attached to the visible hierarchy. This is the code we used: SKStoreProductViewController *storeVC = [SKStoreProductViewController new]; storeVC.delegate = self; [storeVC loadProductWithParameters:@{ SKStoreProductP

Hello, I want to echo the DeviceActivityReport concurrency problems flagged in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/720549, and ask a related question. (Thanks to Kmart and other Apple dev support folks who have been monitoring these forums and responding diligently.) I would like to display daily and weekly stats in the same view, broken down by specific apps (as in the native Screen Time). However, instantiating multiple DeviceActivityReport objects with different filters and/or different contexts leads to confusion, where the two views will incorrectly and intermittently swap data or duplicate data where it shouldn't (seemingly upon some interval when the extension provides fresh data). There isn't documentation on how to display multiple reports at once. Is the idea that logic for multiple reports should be embedded within the extension itself in the makeConfiguration() function and there should only be a single DeviceActivityReport in the main App, or is this a bug? Even with a single DeviceActivity

I've already submitted multiple cases about this issue. My Family Controls Distribution request was apparently approved (or I was told via Developer Support) for my Shield Action & Shield Configuration extensions, but the Distribution option still does not appear in the identifiers. This is blocking my ability to distribute via TestFlight. I need someone who can update the identifier capabilities or explain why the approved capability is not showing.

Hi, I have an approved com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement for my main app bundle (com.maxflame.prove-it) and submitted a request on April 18, 2026 to extend it to an embedded extension: com.maxflame.prove-it.DeviceActivityMonitorExtension Request ID: 65CKJZ7DQ4 — status still shows Submitted with no further response. The extension uses DeviceActivity callbacks and needs to decode FamilyActivitySelection, which requires the entitlement on the extension bundle as well. In my experience, Family Controls entitlement approvals for the main app bundle have come through within 24 hours. It's now been 5 days with no response for this extension request, which seems unusual. Has anyone else gone through this for extension bundle IDs? Did you need to submit a separate request per bundle, or did Apple extend the approval to your extensions automatically once the main app was approved? And has anyone else experienced longer wait times specifically for extension bundles? Any guidance appreciated.

It has been five days since we applied for Family Controls (Distribution) permission, but the status still shows as Submitted. Is there any way to expedite the review process?
