Bug Report: ScreenCaptureKit System Audio Capture Crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS Summary When using ScreenCaptureKit to capture system audio for extended periods, the application crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS in Swift's error handling runtime. The crash occurs in swift_getErrorValue when trying to process an error from the SCStream delegate method didStopWithError. This appears to be a framework-level issue in ScreenCaptureKit or its underlying ReplayKit implementation. Environment macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 Swift 5.8 ScreenCaptureKit framework Detailed Description Our application captures system audio using ScreenCaptureKit's audio capture capabilities. After successfully capturing for several minutes (typically after 3-4 segments of 60-second recordings), the application crashes with an EXC_BAD_ACCESS error. The crash happens when the Swift runtime attempts to process an error in the SCStreamDelegate.stream(_:didStopWithError:) method. The crash consistently occurs in swift_getErrorValue when attempting to acc

In an iOS App that uses CKShare I have a many-to-many relationship that does not consistently sync between the share's N participants. The relationship is between Group and Player as group.players and player.groups. As an example, given 3 group each with 4 players (aka 4:4:4), some devices show CoreData (it is NOT a UI issue) with 4:2:3 or 3:4:4. (A deletion of CoreData from a device, forcing a full re-sync from CloudKit, seems to populate the group:player relationships consistently; but obviously that is impractical to resolving the issue). How do I avoid these sync-from-CloudKit inconsistencies? Note: AI agents generally suggest adding a CoreData 'join' entity - such as 'GroupPlayer'. Is that THE fix?

Hi Apple Team / Community, We are currently pulling our hair out over a TestNet OTA issue and could really use some help. Our Matter Door Lock (VID: 5424, PID: 513) has already obtained official CSA Certification, so we are 100% confident that our device firmware and OTA Requestor logic are completely solid. However, we simply cannot get Apple's TestNet to serve the update via HomePod. Here is exactly what is happening: Our device successfully sends a QueryImage command to the HomePod. The HomePod receives it, but immediately fires back a QueryImageResponse that essentially means UpdateNotAvailable, forcing the device into an 86400-second sleep timeout. Here is what we have verified so far: Local OTA works perfectly: If we use Nordic's chip-ota-provider-app locally with the exact same .ota file, the BDX transfer triggers instantly and the device updates without a hitch. DCL details are 100% accurate: We published a brand new version (1.0.4 / 16778240) which is strictly higher than the device's current version

Hi, We are facing the issue of commissioning our Matter device to google home through iOS device will be 100% failed. Here is our test summary regarding the issue: TestCase1 [OK]: Commissioning our Matter 1.4.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by Android device (see log DoorWindow_2.0.1_Google_Success.txt ) TestCase2 [NG]: Commissioning Matter 1.4.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by iPhone13 or iPhone16 (see log DoorWindow_2.0.1_Google_by_iOS_NG.txt ) TestCase3 [OK]: Commissioning our Matter 1.3.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by iPhone13 In TestCase2, we noticed that device was first commissioned to iOS(Apple keychain) then iOS opened a commissioning window again to commission it in Google’s ecosystem, and the device was failed at above step 2, so we also tried: Commissioning the device to Apple Home works as expected, next share the device to Google Home app on iOS, this also fails. Commissioning the device to Apple Home works as expected, next share the device to Google Home app on Android, this works as ex

Issue: after going through configuration steps for app clips, when I scan my QR code, my app clip does not appear, instead safari attempts to open the url as a web page. note: my aasa endpoint is never even getting called when scanning the QR code. Setup: App uninstalled in accordance with Apple Documentation Users don’t install App Clips, and App Clips don’t appear on the Home Screen. Similarly, testers don’t install the beta version of your App Clip testflight installed in accordance with Apple Documentation My app's Build 1.51.9 (1) uploaded and greenlit in testflight. My apple email is added as an internal tester is the same as my Apple ID for the device used. I have provided an aasa for the path: .well-known/apple-app-site-association.

Following WWDC24 video Discover Swift enhancements in the Vision framework recommendations (cfr video at 10'41), I used the following code to perform multiple new iOS 18 `RecognizedTextRequest' in parallel. Problem: if more than 2 request are run in parallel, the request will hang, leaving the app in a state where no more requests can be started. -> deadlock I tried other ways to run the requests, but no matter the method employed, or what device I use: no more than 2 requests can ever be run in parallel. func triggerDeadlock() {} try await withThrowingTaskGroup(of: Void.self) { group in // See: WWDC 2024 Discover Siwft enhancements in the Vision framework at 10:41 // ############## THIS IS KEY let maxOCRTasks = 5 // On a real-device, if more than 2 RecognizeTextRequest are launched in parallel using tasks, the request hangs // ############## THIS IS KEY for idx in 0..

Dear Team, Can you please check and confirm for this security Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has identified a new iOS full-chain exploit that leveraged multiple zero-day vulnerabilities to fully compromise devices. Based on toolmarks in recovered payloads, we believe the exploit chain to be called DarkSword. Since at least November 2025, GTIG has observed multiple commercial surveillance vendors and suspected state-sponsored actors utilizing DarkSword in distinct campaigns. These threat actors have deployed the exploit chain against targets in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine. https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/darksword-ios-exploit-chain?hl=en

Every new build of macOS 26 further breaks some part of text-to-speech or voice control. I have filed multiple bug reports on this, yet the situation gets worse, not better, with each new build. I am begging you to fix this! I am disabled and rely on these features to work. Accessibility in macOS is more than 50% of my reasons for choosing Macs over Windows. Here's some of what is currently broken: Speak announcements only works if the Samantha voice is selected. If other voices are selected either the announcements don't speak, or they default to the Samantha voice. This became broken with 26.1. Announce the time only works with some voices. I would like to use Australian English Siri 2 but with that voice selected it defaults to Samantha. This became broken with 26.4. With voice control enabled there are two menu bar icons. The blue voice control icon and an orange microphone an application is accessing the microphone icon. This orange icon started appearing with 26.3. For four years of macOS releases, the

Hello, I have implemented a URL Filter using the sample provided here: Filtering Traffic by URL. I am also using an App Group to dynamically manage the Bloom filter and block list data. However, when I update my block list URLs and create a new Bloom filter plist in the App Group, the extension does not seem to use the updated Bloom filter even after the prefetch interval expires. Also for testing purpose can I keep this interval to 10 mins or below ?
