iPadOS 17.7.7

I still see this issue, Im using Xcode beta 4, running test on iPad with iPadOS Developer Beta. I tried [self.tabBarController setTabBarHidden:true]; in viewWillAppear [self.tabBarController.tabBar setHidden:true]; in viewWillAppear [self.tabBarController setHidesBottomBarWhenPushed:true]; in parent view controller

I have a device like a gas meter or an electricity meter and it has: an optical interface IEC 62056-21 (IEC-1107) with support for speeds up to 115,200 Bd. On Windows and Android, we use a cable that has an optical interface and on the other end we connect USB A to the PC and to the Android via an OTG to USB adapter. The cable contains a chip from FTDI FT230XQ. I have an application in MAUI where I want to connect this cable to the 10th generation iPad and communicate similarly to, for example, via the COM5 port on the PC. When the port opens, I send a query and get a response. Is it possible, what should I do for this? Yes, though the range of difficulty here is pretty broad. In terms of API support, it is technically possible to do this on iPadOS using DriverKit. However, the work involved is quite significant as it basically requires implementing a USB serial port driver in USBDriverKit, then implementing your own user client so that your app can communicate with the driver. I don't know what your

The HIG contains some best practices when using modal presentations. Please review the documentation as a starting point. It’s subjective to the purpose of your app, but from a user’s perspective, you might want to consider either a TabView that adapts into a sidebar layout on iPadOS, macOS, and tvOS, or a NavigationStack.

I'll defer to the HIG for best practices. You cannot replace the default Preferences or Settings menu item in the macOS or iPadOS menu bar that's automatically generated for your app. That said, you can supplement that with your own app-specific needs using the commands(content:) modifier. Checkout Building and customizing the menu bar with SwiftUI for guidance on native menu bars.

I’ve updated to iPadOS 18.6 on the devices currently available to me, and the Local Network permission now appears to be working correctly in the extension. I’ll be able to run the full test suite in our lab environment within 24 hours to confirm this. If everything checks out, I’ll mark this as resolved.

Please check out the discussion of FB14321888 in TN3179 Understanding local network privacy. Given the severity of that bug, I recommend that you repeat your tests on iOS 18.6. Well, iPadOS 18.6 (-: Quoting the top of that technote: Local network privacy works the same on iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. Unless otherwise noted, assume that any info about iOS applies to all three platforms.

[quote='795155021, mfzgoatcoder123, /thread/795155, /profile/mfzgoatcoder123'] I'm wondering if iPadOS supports bundling a prebuilt .systemextension file with the entitlement com.apple.developer.system-extension.redistributable [/quote] No. For a start, the docs for com.apple.developer.system-extension.redistributable list it as macOS only. But regardless of that, App Store re-signs apps during the submission process, so it’s literally impossible for an iOS app to have different parts signed by different developers, because once the app gets to the device it’s actually all signed by Apple. Having said that, there’s nothing to stop you from getting a pre-built sysex from a vendor, signing it with your distribution signing identity, and embedding that in your iOS app. However, there is a significant drawback here: The sysex needs managed entitlements to work correctly and those are granted on a team-by-team basis. So, if your sign the code as your team, you’d need to apply for those managed entitlement
