build disappears

Just recently, any pkg file that I create with pkgbuild will install the Payload's application as a zero-byte file in the /Applications directory. This has been working for years without issue for me. Here are the commands I am using with company specific items replaced: pkgbuild --analyze --root MyApplicationRootDirectory standalone.plist plutil -replace BundleIsRelocatable -bool NO standalone.plist pkgbuild --identifier MyIdentifier --version 1.0 --install-location /Applications --root MyApplicationRootDirectory --component-plist standalone.plist --sign 'Developer ID Installer: MyCompany (MySignId)' --timestamp installer.pkg Any ideas on what could be causing the issue? I have verified the following: The application being added to the pkg is both signed and notarized using the correct Developer ID Application certificate. The resultant pkg file is both signed and notarized using the Developer ID Installer certificate. Verified the pkg contents using pkgutil --expand to dump the contents. Verified the pkg's

Hi everyone, I'm building a task management app that layers on top of EventKit/Reminders. I'm also moderating /r/AppleReminders. I see a confusion around the semantics of dates on both the developer side and on the user side. I'm trying to map the standard productivity mental model to the EKReminder implementation and hitting some walls. In productivity contexts, a task tends to have three distinct dates: Start Date: When the task becomes actionable — Don’t alert the user before this date. Notification: When the device should buzz/ping the user — Meaning that they can get started on the task. Due Date: Hard deadline — If the system works well, tasks are meant to rarely be past-deadline; productivity systems are about meeting deadlines rather than about missing them. The EventKit Reality Here is what I’m seeing in practice, and I’m hoping someone can correct me if I’m wrong: Field Description In Practice (Reminders App) startDateComponents Docs say start date of the task Seemingly unused? I can set it

Hi there, I'm trying to work on an architecture where one app exposes an API (Extension Host) that other apps can plugin to. I've been reading all I can from the docs and whatever I can find online. It seemed like iOS26 added the ability to do such a thing (at least in early builds). Is that the case? Has the functionality been walked back such that extensions can only be loaded in iOS from within the single app bundle? My use case is the following: I'm working on an agent app that desires to have 3rd party developers add functionality (think how MCP servers add functionality to LLMs). The 3rd party plugins would be provided in their own app bundles vetted by the AppStore review team, of course, and would only provide hooks, basically, the main app can use to execute functions or get state. This is the best thread I found on the topic, and the subtext is that it needs to be in the same bundle. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/803896?answerId=865314022#865314022 Let's say for the moment that

We are facing a DNS resolution issue with a specific ISP, where our domain name does not resolve correctly using the system DNS. However, the same domain works as expected when a custom DNS resolver is used. On Android, this is straightforward to handle by configuring a custom DNS implementation using OkHttp / Retrofit. I am trying to implement a functionally equivalent solution in native iOS (Swift / SwiftUI). Android Reference (Working Behavior) : val dns = DnsOverHttps.Builder() .client(OkHttpClient()) .url(https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query.toHttpUrl()) .bootstrapDnsHosts(InetAddress.getByName(1.1.1.1)) .build() OkHttpClient.Builder() .dns(dns) .build() Attempted iOS Approach I attempted the following approach : Resolve the domain to an IP address programmatically (using DNS over HTTPS) Connect directly to the resolved IP address Set the original domain in the Host HTTP header DNS Resolution via DoH : func resolveDomain(domain: String) async throws -> String { guard let url = URL( s

I have a Unity AR project that I want to build for iOS. The build in Unity succeeds just fine, but when it opens in XCode, whatever I do, it keeps showing this error in GameAssembly: Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code. This error also doesn't open when choosing Reveal in Log. I have added the IL2CPP package in the Unity version, deleted and reentered scenes and no issue on Unity's side. On XCode I signed in with my developer account, tried deleting derived data, made a clean build and still the issue persists.

I'm building a macOS extension that needs to track multi-step navigation chains (A → B → C) to adjust behavior based on where users came from. Current approach: Using webNavigation.onBeforeNavigate to detect intermediate steps, but experiencing issues in Safari that don't occur on Chrome/Firefox/Edge. Questions: Is webNavigation the right API for tracking redirect chains in Safari? Does ITP/Private Browsing affect event delivery? Any alternative approaches recommended? (Safari version 26.0.1) Any guidance appreciated!

Can anyone please confirm that Apple-hosted Background Assets still will NOT work unless the app is: Installed from TestFlight, or Installed from the App Store Is it true Xcode-installed builds—Debug or Release—do not receive the App Store’s Background Asset metadata and cannot access the background asset packs? I am getting the error when running the app in Xcode: The asset pack with the ID “VALIDPACKNAME” couldn’t be looked up: No asset pack with the ID “VALIDPACKNAME” was found.

Hello everyone, I’m an iOS developer from Türkiye, and I’m currently facing a serious issue regarding my Apple Developer account termination (Appeal Ticket: APL255848). Problem: I have removed all references, icons, descriptions, and metadata related to my previous app name (“Nano Banana”) both inside the app and on the App Store listing. I submitted updated assets, screenshots, and a new metadata package. However, the App Review Board seems to still be seeing old cached metadata, old icons, or previous descriptions that no longer exist in my build. Because of this, every response from App Store Connect repeats the same text, even though I have already made and proven all required changes. Current Situation: My account is terminated, and my appeal has been pending for over 3 weeks with identical non-actionable responses. I am not receiving my revenue for the past 2 months. I want to comply fully with the Apple Developer Program Agreement and provide any documents required (invoices, trademarks, API i

Hi, After enabling the new Enhanced Security capability in Xcode 26, I’m seeing install failures on devices running < iOS 26. Deployment target: iOS 15.0 Capability: Enhanced Security (added via Signing & Capabilities tab) Building to iOS 18 device error - Unable to Install ...Please ensure sure that your app is signed by a valid provisioning profile. It works fine on iOS 26 devices. I’d like to confirm Apple’s intent here: Is this capability formally supported only on iOS 26 and later, and therefore incompatible with earlier OS versions? Or should older systems ignore the entitlement, meaning this behavior might be a bug?

It looks like ExtensionKit (and ExtensionFoundation) is fully available on iOS 26 but there is no mention about this in WWDC. From my testing, it seems as of beta 1, ExtensionKit allows the app from one dev team to launch extension provided by another dev team. Before we start building on this, can someone from Apple help confirm this is the intentional behavior and not just beta 1 thing?
