Hello, I’m facing an issue installing my app from TestFlight on a physical iPhone device. App & Environment App: Desi Charades Framework: Flutter Distribution: TestFlight Build status: Upload completed (with warnings) Device: iPhone 7+ iOS version: 15.6 Tester type: Internal Apple Developer Program: Paid account Issue Description After uploading a build successfully to App Store Connect and adding it to TestFlight, the app appears in TestFlight with the Install button. However, when I tap Install, I receive the following error on the device: “Could not install Desi Charades App. The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist.” The build is visible in TestFlight, but installation fails immediately. Upload Warnings During archive upload, App Store Connect shows the following warnings: Upload Symbols Failed The archive did not include a dSYM for: ffmpegkit.framework libavcodec.framework libavdevice.framework The app uses ffmpeg-kit (Flutter plugin), which ships precompiled frameworks. Steps Alr

**Environment Platform:** iOS Distribution: TestFlight Product type: Consumable In-App Purchase Account used for testing: Real Apple ID (not Sandbox) StoreKit: StoreKit 1 iOS version: iOS 17+ (also reproduced on earlier versions) Issue Description We are encountering an issue when testing consumable in-app purchases in a TestFlight build using a real Apple ID. Under normal circumstances, consumable products should be purchasable repeatedly. However, in TestFlight, after a successful purchase flow, the same product may become unavailable for repurchase, and the transaction appears to be stuck, even though: • finishTransaction: is correctly called • The transaction state is .purchased • No pending transactions are left in the payment queue Once this happens, subsequent purchase attempts result in behavior similar to a non-consumable product (e.g. “already purchased” or no purchase UI shown).

Hi everyone, I’m looking for clarification regarding an App Review rejection under Guideline 2.1 – Performance – App Completeness. Apple reported the following issue: Bug description: “Create PIN” button was not responsive Review device: iPad Air 11-inch (M3) OS version: iPadOS 26.2.1 What’s confusing is the following: Observed behavior on our side The app has been tested extensively on: Multiple iPhone models iPad devices (including recent iPadOS versions) In all our testing: The Create PIN button is responsive The tap action triggers correctly The flow completes without errors At this point, we are unable to reproduce the issue described by App Review on either iPhone or iPad. iPhone-only intent vs iPad review The app is designed and optimized for iPhone usage only. However, the review was performed on an iPad device. If an app is available for download on iPad, is it always expected to function fully on iPad regardless of being phone-optimized? If iPad support is not intended, is explicitly disabl

Hello, I am interested in using jax-metal to train ML models using Apple Silicon. I understand this is experimental. After installing jax-metal according to https://developer.apple.com/metal/jax/, my python code fails with the following error JaxRuntimeError: UNKNOWN: -:0:0: error: unknown attribute code: 22 -:0:0: note: in bytecode version 6 produced by: StableHLO_v1.12.1 My issue is identical to the one reported here https://github.com/jax-ml/jax/issues/26968#issuecomment-2733120325, and is fixed by pinning to jax-metal 0.1.1., jax 0.5.0 and jaxlib 0.5.0. Thank you!

I submitted my first ever app for review last Thursday, yet I have still had no updates from Apple regarding my review. Is this common for a first time submission or should I be slightly worried that i've been lost in the queue??

1/ Issue Summary In our application, we use HKObserverQuery together with:HKHealthStore.enableBackgroundDelivery(for:frequency: .immediate) to enable HealthKit Background Delivery, allowing the system to wake our App Extension in the background to process health data updates. Under the same app build, identical HealthKit permission configuration, and the same watchOS version, we have observed significant differences in background delivery frequency across different devices. Specifically, on certain devices (e.g. Apple Watch Series 10, watchOS 26.2.1), the background delivery frequency is significantly reduced, behaving as if it is capped at approximately once per hour. On other control devices, under the same configuration, background delivery is triggered much more frequently and consistently, at approximately every 8–16 minutes. This behavior is consistently reproducible on the affected devices. **We would like to understand whether there are any officially recommended implementation patterns, best

Hello, I’m developing an educational iOS app called “Lipi – Punjabi Kids Learning” that delivers pre-created educational content using a subscription model, similar to how Netflix or Kindle deliver content. Users subscribe on our website, and the iOS app provides access to that subscribed content only. No digital content or subscriptions are purchased inside the iOS app. I’m trying to apply for the Reader App / External Link Account Entitlement, but I’m unable to find a dedicated application form. The previously referenced URL (developer.apple.com/contact/request/reader-app/) no longer works. Could someone from Apple or the community please confirm the current and correct process to request this entitlement? App details: App Name: Lipi – Punjabi Kids Learning Bundle ID: com.app.meriLipi Category: Education Content: Video lessons, live classes, quizzes, and writing exercises Website: https://merilipi.com Pricing: https://merilipi.com/pricing I’ve already contacted Apple Developer Support and

We have developed an IOPCIFamily based custom KEXT to communicate with Thunderbolt interface storage device. This KEXT is working fine with Apple machines with Intel CPUs in all types of machines (iMac, iMac Pro and MacBooks). We tested this KEXT with Apple Silicon M1 machine where we are observing crash for the very first command we send to the Thunderbolt device. We observed that there is difference in number of bits in Physical Address we use for preparing command PRPs. In Intel machines we get 28-Bit Physical Address whereas in M1 we are getting 36-Bit address used for PRPs. We use inTaskWithPhysicalMask api to allocate memory buffer we use for preparing command PRPs. Below are the options we have used for this: options: kIOMemoryPhysicallyContiguous | kIODirectionInOut capacity: 16kb physicalMask: 0xFFFFF000UL (We want 4kb aligned memory) According to below documentation, we have to use inTaskWithPhysicalMask api to get memory below 4gb. https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/docum

I understand that private APIs are not permitted under Apple’s App Review Guidelines. However, our application requires I²C communication, and we are currently using the following APIs: IOAVServiceReadI2C IOAVServiceWriteI2C IOI2CSendRequest.These api's are not permitted by apple. I didnt found any alternative public api to achieve I²C communication. please suggest any public api's for the same or any chance to use this private api.
