“A Summary of the WWDC25 Group Lab”

I’m facing the exact same issue. Even though I’m not located in China, the classification still matters because Apple requires a government license for anything categorized as a “game” in China, which is practically impossible for an independent developer to obtain. Many users are asking for Game Mode support in my real-time streaming app, but enabling it would force me to change the category to “Games” on the App Store and that would immediately lock out thousands of users in China. So I’m stuck having to choose between delivering better performance for one group of users and keeping the app available for another, and that’s not a great position to be in as a developer.

A solution is not to rely on a Data Manager class and its associates but to use UserDefaults so that Widget's getTimeline method will be called when ContentView submits data to it. By this approach, you can update Widget's View. import SwiftUI import WidgetKit struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Button { let task0 = TaskItem(id: UUID(), name: Dish washing, isComplete: false, dueDate: Date.now.addingTimeInterval(86400)) let task1 = TaskItem(id: UUID(), name: Bed making, isComplete: false, dueDate: Date.now.addingTimeInterval(86400 * 2)) saveTasksToWidget(tasks: [task0, task1]) } label: { Image(systemName: globe) .imageScale(.large) } .tint(.pink) .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) } .padding() } private func saveTasksToWidget(tasks: [TaskItem]) { guard let sharedDefaults = UserDefaults(suiteName: group.abc) else { print(Failed to get shared UserDefaults.) return } do { let encoder = JSONEncoder() let encodedData = try encoder.encode(tasks) sharedDefaults.set(encodedData, forKey: widgetTasks

@bradpriddy Thank you for the post and the link to the code, this is really good with a great description as well as the comprehensive list of devices where the device fails to receive a push-to-start token. I believe is a bug however, regrettably, I am not an expert in the APN start token and update token. However, I believe the most expedient course of action, to resolve the issue is to submit a bug report with a zip file containing the code you have provided and a concise summary of the problem. Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference. If you have any questions about filing a bug report, take a look at Bug Reporting: How and Why? Albert Pascual

There are two factors in play here, the Apple Developer website and your third-party tooling. Let’s separate them. Try this: In Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles section of the Developer website, create a new App ID. I’d like you to share info about this App ID, so choose bundle ID that you’re comfortable posting here. During the creation process, enable the Push Notifications capability. Back in Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles, create a new provisioning profile for that App ID. At the first screen, select iOS App Development. Check the entitlement authorised by that profile. I just did that here and this is what I see: % security cms -D -i Test808162_Dev.mobileprovision | plutil -p - { … Entitlements => { application-identifier => SKMME9E2Y8.com.example.apple-samplecode.Test808162 aps-environment => development com.apple.developer.team-identifier => SKMME9E2Y8 get-task-allow => 1 keychain-access-groups => [ 0 => SKMME9E2Y8.* 1 => com.apple.token ] } … } As you c

Are you using @Environment(.widgetRenderingMode) var widgetRenderingMode already? If not, add that to your widget view, and change how the widget looks depending on the various values of widgetRenderingMode, i.e.: var body: some View { ZStack { switch renderingMode { case .fullColor: Text(Full color) case .accented: ZStack { Circle(...) VStack { Text(Accented) .widgetAccentable() Text(Normal) } } case .vibrant: Text(Full color) default: ... } } } Also, on images, there's a modifier: .widgetAccentedRenderingMode() with options like .accentedDesaturated. Take a look at how each of those values affects your widget, and you might find out the right combination that works in each of the various Home Screen modes. Note that this is only available from iOS 18 onwards. Also note (from the dev documentation) if the Image is a subview for a group that has widgetAccentable(true) applied, this modifier may conflict. It's quicker to check the various looks in Xcode previews than it is to build and deploy to an iP

Earlier I wrote: But, honestly, it sounds like a fun weekend project And indeed it was (-: Pasted below is some iOS code that is able to detect how your code is signed using only public APIs. To do this, it uses a sneaky combination of XPC loopback and XPC peer requirement checking. This code comes with a bunch of caveats. Read the doc comment before you use it [1].

Hi @Ewan_Ke Thanks for the reply. We pushed a small refactor to the sample yesterday. Here's the diff. I recommend applying the changes. It's worth calling out that the changes would not cause the behavior you reported, but they will make your app better. Changes Summary This patch addresses camera feed handling and removes unnecessary scene phase restart logic. Files Modified 1. CameraFeed.swift Added flush check before processing sample buffers to prevent decoding issues if preview.sampleBufferRenderer.requiresFlushToResumeDecoding { preview.sampleBufferRenderer.flush() } 2. CameraSessionManager.swift Changed restart() method visibility to private Was: func restart() async Now: private func restart() async 3. MainCameraView.swift Removed unused @Environment(.scenePhase) property Removed .onChange(of: scenePhase) modifier that was calling sessionManager.restart() when returning from background Rationale Restarting CameraSessionManager after the app is backgrounded is excessive. Instead the code shou

And yes, that flag is primarily associated with TestFlight.

If, yesterday, you’d made me guess as to this result, I would’ve guessed the opposition. This results rules out my main theory as to what’s going on, namely that your app group was causing your entitlements to get invalidated. This is something I talk about in the Entitlements-Validated Flag section of App Groups: macOS vs iOS: Working Towards Harmony. And that leaves me out of ideas. My best guess right now is that this problem is the result of the different install machinery used on iOS and macOS. Well, the lack of install machinery on macOS, where Xcode just constructs t
