“Account Locked”

i took the Watch off the charger and it said Device Locked, put Apple Watch on and unlock with iPhone, which is normal.No matter how many times I unlock the iPhone, the Watch won't unlock. I tried unlocking the phone with Touch ID and manually typing the password, I rebooted the Watch and iPhoneis there any way to erase the Watch or do anything else to get past this ?

When the user pushed the lock device action on a macOS 14, it returned an acknowledgement but the device wasn't locked. Which resulted in loss of data on the device.

I am working on a sound recording app and I noticed that Voice Memos is abale to present an interface on the lock screen whwen the phone is locked. Is this a standard capability or something available only to Voice Memos because this is an Apple developed app? I'm just trying to figure out if there is anything that I need to do to support this feature.I was looking at the article Controlling Background Audio but this seems to be about supporting playback on the Now Playing screen, rather than a recording interface.Thanks!

We are looking at the possibility of launching our app through Siri with a locked device. We have the device responding to our App Intent but it is asking to be unlocked first. If the device is locked the intent works perfectly. It just doesn't seem to respect the set intentAuthenticationPolicy. Thank you for you time looking into this. We have set these var to .alwaysAllowed and open to true. static var authenticationPolicy: IntentAuthenticationPolicy = .alwaysAllowed static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = true Here is our full test code: import AppIntents import SwiftUI // MARK: - App Intents struct OpenAppIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = Open Main App static var description: IntentDescription? = .init(stringLiteral: Opens the App) static var authenticationPolicy: IntentAuthenticationPolicy = .alwaysAllowed static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = true func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { print(App opened) return .result() } } struct TestAppShortcutProvi

I work for a company, where we want to distrubute our internal app on the appstore for various reasons instead of the enterprise program, but I wanted to know what are the guidelines, for an app locked by a key or password in order to gain access the app?(this is all before user authentication).

I have a profile on my iPhone that requires an alphanumeric passcode, and in the latest verison Watch OS 1 I could unlock the watch by unlocking the phone in range of the watch... all good there.Now, I get the same Device Locked: Unlock iPhone to start using Apple Watch message on the phone, but when I unlock the phone (running iOS9 beta 3), it doesn't unlock! If I go to the Apple Watch app on my phone paired with the watch, and go into Passcode, all of the settings are greyed out, the top right of the screen has a loading spinner, and eventually I got an alert popup that says Unlock Apple Watch: Your Apple Watch is currently locked. Please unlock it to continue.HELP!

On Safari on iOS, if you start scrolling with your finger mostly vertically or mostly horizontally, the scrolling gets locked along either the y or x axis. You can't scroll freely in any direction. However, if you started by scrolling diagonally you can scroll freely in any direction.This locking behavior persists until you pinch/spread or do some various gestures. I am not sure what exactly the rules for this are, and can find no documentation on the internet.Is there any way to disable this on a webpage, and ONLY have free scrolling?

I had the watchOS 2 beta 5 on my Apple Watch with activation lock enabled. Is there a way for me to find it or display a message? Can they bypass this feature without my info?

Hi, we have an iOS app which we recently decided to add a Watch Extension. The iOS app has Push Notification and Background capabilities enabled. It also contains some sensitive data stored in the Keychain. The Watch app is intended to let users, upon receive a push notification, get this notification on their paired Apple Watch if your phone is locked. On tap the notification they open the app on watch and have actions to process it. The watch app then send a message to iOS app using WCSession, waking up the iOS on background. Everything works as expected, the iOS app receives the message via WCSession and process it accordingly. The issue we have is that for a specific action, which need to access the Keychain to retrieve an information. We can access the keychain, the key is retrieved but the value has no data when the iOS app is on the background and locked. The value is retrieved if the iPhone is unlocked and the app is on background. On our Keychain wrapper we store and query the data

Hello, I'm trying to handle the following use case right after app installation: Display a microphone permission modal on the lock screen before answering an incoming call notification However, I've been searching for a way to show permission modals while the screen is locked, but I couldn't find any solution in other forums or documentation. I've also checked several calling apps, and it appears that none of them display permission modals either. Is this an OS specification/limitation? Are there any workarounds available?

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/WidgetKit/Adding-interactivity-to-widgets-and-Live-Activities#Add-a-toggle Before explaining the situation, I referred to this document. I'm making a widget with a toggle that works with Intent. (To be precise, it's Live Activity, but Apple's literally toggling and button interaction are implemented in the same way) If you press the toggle when the device is locked, the toggle represents the state. However, as described at the top of the same document, the device must be unlocked to execute Intent, so I can't actually change the data. That's fine, but how can I return the isOn of the toggle to false? I'm blocked here because no code is executed. If it is a widget in the home screen, it will be basically unlocked, so I can proceed according to the method of the document, but if it is today's view, user can access it even if device is locked. I tested it in today's view with the Reminders app, If I don't unlock the device after tapping the toggle it re

It is very frustating.... it happens very often.... you start coding... launch the simulator.... at first, everything works rigth, but after several runs the simulator does not star at all.... or, if you are using an iphone, xcode says device is locked but it is not.You must restart Xcode.Any solution to this?Best!!!

I would like to make a suggestion: Please include an option to “lock the phone” after a call completes. This way you can hand your phone to a person To continue a phone conversation, and not have to worry about your privacy being compromised once the call ends (or better yet, during the call as well). Thanks,
