“A Summary of the WWDC26 Group Lab”

Hi I'm setting up Sign in with Apple on my app, and also want to offer it on the web-app version. I get the idea of grouping the app and website in the Identifiers section so the user doesn't get asked to ok things twice - that makes sense, but how do I give my website an ID in my apple dev account so that I can group it with the app please? Or am I misunderstanding the process? Thank you for your time and help.

There is a volunteer run group on GitHub who maintain a well known public domain cross-platform Python script. They build binaries for Linux, Windows and macOS. The macOS binaries are only ad-hoc signed. Thus, in macOS 15, they are rejected by Gatekeeper – requiring user intervention to be used. There are a lot of components each of which must be approved in Settings with admin credentials. It would be best if these binaries were code signed. However, the core group of devs changes over time and so, using one person's name might not be ideal. Can such a volunteer group apply for a developer certificate so that they can sign the macOS binaries ? I ask because Apple's requirements for enrolling in the Development Program include that an organisation be a legal entity and this group is not a legal entity. Thnaks.

In order for data (contained within a number of our created apps) such as user IDs, email addresses and user specific text stings to be shared between apps, we are considering saving this data to the shared container's NSUserDefaults using an app group.We would like to ask you the following question:How safe is the shared container for an App Group from a security perspective?We searched for an official Apple document, however, we were unable to find material stating clearly the safety of an app group's shared container.Below is what material we found through our investigation.- https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/documentation/General/Conceptual/WatchKitProgrammingGuide/DesigningaWatchKitApp.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014969-CH3-SW1　Overview > WatchKit App Architecture > Sharing Data with Your Containing iOS App　An app group is a secure container that multiple processes can access.- https://www.apple.com/business/docs/iOS_Security_Guide.pdfIf there is any oth

I have 2 groups on test flight. I have assigned one build to the group 1, but when it got approved, it went to the group 2 as well. The user who has received it had automatic updates On; anyway, they shouldn't have received the update

My app processes numbers, and depends on the grouping separator on the system locale (Locale.current). The user can set a completely custom symbol as their number separator in the macOS System Preferences. In my tests, I need to verify that custom grouping separators on Locale objects work correctly. But I can't set a custom grouping separator as the groupingSeparator property on Locale is read-only: /// For example, for en_US, returns ,. public var groupingSeparator: String? { get } How do I create a Locale object for testing purposes, that will simulate a custom locale the user might have configured in the System Preferences?

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing similar problems. In Xcode project, I have several groups, and each one is 1 or 2 levels deep. groupA - fileA.h, fileA.mgroupB - GroupC - fileC.h, fileC.m(groupC is under GroupB)I have fileC.h imported in fileA.m. When I edit fileA.m, the autocomplete function stopped working when I try to access those defined in fileC.When I switch back to Xcode 7.2 the autocomplete works fine.

I have an app with 2 app extensions. I have set all 3 of them up as an App Group. Each of them have a separate app and bundle ID. Now, when I submit the app on iTC, do I submit 3 apps; i.e.build each target separately, generating 3 .ipa files and then bundle them up on iTC? Or is it OK to compile everything(all 3 targets) in 1 bundle and just submit 1 .ipa file?

My understanding is that iOS app group names must begin with group., but macOS group names must begin with the team identifier. If I check a group. name in the iOS section, it's also added to the macOS section, despite being invalid. If I add a team-id: name in the macOS section, it's also added to the iOS section, and marked in red as invalid. If I uncheck it from the iOS section, it also gets removed from the macOS section. Is there a way to define the equivalent group names in the two sections? Xcode 14.1b3 screenshot:

From 2021.01.01 to 2021.01.31, the Summary Sales Report found 1503 rows with units of -1. The App Store Server notification found 2508 messages with notification_type of REFUND. Why is there a difference between the two data?

Hi folks, I'm trying to build communication between the main app and its helper via inter-process communication. I found here that it is possible if the apps are in the same app group. But I really cannot make it work, and cannot understand what I do wrong. It works all good if I add com.apple.security.temporary-exception.mach-lookup.global-name entitlement, so the setup seems to be correct? Where should I look to fix it? Also because having that entitlement means that it is gonna be tricky to get through the App Review.

These questions are community-driven. I am also not the original questioner, I'm just posting them with permission. Thank you to the anonymous folks who helped gather this information.DEP / deployment / general related:- ASR restore on AFPS: it will be a Thing of some sort. The engineer spoken to hinted that they didn't even know internally exactly how it would work yet, but they fully expect to support asr restores in the future, even with APFS.- System Image Utility: the team that writes it knows it is broken, and wants it to be fixed, and expect to have it resolved with APFS support, but maybe not until seed 3 at the earliest- APFS on the Mac in general: they know it's still kinda broken. Not a single person I talked to sounded confident about using it for anything _right now_ and that it will likely take multiple seed iterations until it's in the state they feel like it should be. NOTE: This is my interpretation of the subtext of what they were saying. No one flat out stated that.- NetBoot / NetInstall su

We have identified Subscription Groups for our use-case based on the below note from Apple, but there is no mention of any limitations in the doc. Can we create unlimited number of Subscription Groups or is there a limit? If your app needs to offer users the ability to buy multiple subscriptions — for example, to subscribe to more than one channel in a streaming app — you can add these subscriptions to different groups. Users who buy subscriptions in multiple groups will be billed separately for each subscription. Thanks in advance!
