Reply to Are Xcode warnings like this safe to submit (won’t disqualify)?
Oh, hey, look at that! I had assumed that, if you set the app icon via the General tab of the playground editor, it would do the right thing. However, as soon as I switch it from Placeholder to Custom it adds the asset catalogue and I get that warning. That’s… suboptimal. Given that, I don’t think there’s much you can do about this. You have the choice of that warning or giving up on your pretty icon, and that’s no choice. I had a bit of a rummage and I couldn’t find any existing bug report about this warning. Given that, I encourage you to file your own. Please post your bug number, just for the record. And you can then also include the bug number in the comments when you submit.

Reply to App Groups container data on Apple Dev account transfer
vasultm, It’s better to reply as a reply, rather than in the comments; see Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips for this and other titbits. As to the main issue, I haven’t yet driven it to a conclusion but, for the moment, my historical advice stands: There’s no supported way to transfer app group IDs between teams.

Reply to Notarization Always Fails, Now Stuck at Max Certificates, Can't Delete
[quote='816956021, mbisque, /thread/816956, /profile/mbisque'] Every recent attempt to create a Installer certificate has failed [/quote] Clearly it hasn’t failed completely, in that you’ve hit the limit so you must’ve actually created the certificates. So, it’s not a failure to create the certificates, but rather that something has gone wrong after you’ve created them. It’s hard to say what that is without more info. In general, Developer ID signing identities are precious and you have to manage them carefully. I have a lot to say about this in The Care and Feeding of Developer ID. As explained in that post, the best way to resolve this is to recover the private key associated with your existing certificates and thus recover your ability to sign your installer. The post has a lot of suggestions for how you might do this. Once you’re able to form a signing identity by pairing up the private key and its certificate, if you’re still having problems signing then post back here with the details and I should be ab

Reply to Question about personal account switching to organization
The term personal account is confusing, so let me start by clarify that. The developer programme has three tiers [1]: Any Apple Account can be used for basic development. Xcode shows this as a Personal Team. This comes with significant limitations. For the details, see Developer > Support > Choosing a Membership. You can pay to join the developer programme, which makes for an Individual team. A company can pay to join the developer programme, which makes for an Organization team. You can learn more about these in Developer > Program and related pages. If you join the Individual programme you can upgrade your team to an Organization team later on. See Developer Account Helper > Membership > Updating your account information > Updating an individual membership to an organization membership.

Most NE entitlements, including the one for content filters, are available to all (paid) developers. Note Historically there was an approval process for this but that’s not been the case for almost 10 years now. See Network Extension Framework Entitlements. There are, however, significant deployment restrictions for content filters on iOS. I cover those in TN3134, which I mentioned in my reply on your previous thread.

Reply to Notarization stuck over 12 hours
You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for in-depth analysis and may take longer to complete. As you notarise your apps, the system will learn how to recognise them, and you should see fewer delays. For lots of additional info about notarisation, see Notarisation Resources. Specifically, it links to a Q&A with the notary service team that’s quite instructive.

Reply to Can my submission be ran on iPhone?
Right. The submission form has two options: Swift Playground 4.6 or later Xcode 26 or later (with a note saying “Xcode app playgrounds are run in Simulator.”) In the first case, your submission must necessarily be run on an iPad. In the second, your submission will be run on the simulator, not a real device. There are some caveats here: In the first case, the Swift Playground app doesn’t yet include support for the iOS 26 SDK )-: See this thread. In the second case, the form doesn’t currently say whether it’ll be an iPhone on iPad simulator. See this thread.

Reply to Can I withdraw my submission and resubmit an updated playground?
