Hey guys,My iOS application has an extension that detects device Unlock and Lock event. I found 2 separate API to detect. Both of them work great.But my code is rejected twice by Apple Review Team. The following reason was to reject our binary.From AppleGuideline 2.5.1 - Performance - Software RequirementsYour app uses or references the following non-public APIs:com.apple.springboard.lockcompletecom.apple.springboard.lockstate1. First solution to detect device lock and unlock-----------------------------------Code Starts here-----------------------------------#import <notify.h> int notify_token; notify_register_dispatch(com.apple.springboard.lockstate, ¬ify_token, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(int token) { uint64_t state = UINT64_MAX; notify_get_state(token, &state); if(state == 0) { self->lastActiveDate = [NSDate date]; self->deviceCurrentState = _DEVICE_LOCK_STATE_UNLOCKED; } else { self->deviceCurrentState = _DEVICE_LOCK_STATE_LOCKED; } } );------------------------------

I found this Apple document on what is an account and the different types in macOS: https://support.apple.com/guide/server/intro-to-accounts-apdcb06a828/mac but there is nothing about service accounts (typically locked accounts not possible to login with it used by system services such as databases). Is there a way to set up a service account in macOS? Or alternatively a way to configure up a user account in macOS that has the same characteristics as a service account found in Linux (like for example, /usr/sbin/nologin is used, see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/314725/what-is-the-difference-between-user-and-service-account). Thank you!

Posting this here in hopes someone at Apple will be made aware. Since Sonoma, the Old Password field was removed from the Reset Password UI. Apparently, this made it impossible to reset a password from the lock screen even when the password meets the requirements. Since there was no other option but to forcefully reboot, the Reset Password UI on the login screen was even less intuitive. Enter password, prompted to reset password, specify new password (same password attempted from Lock Screen Rest Password UI), Reset Password button grayed out. Hmm. Where do I enter my old password that I just entered to trigger the Reset Password UI? Oh, the Enter Password field. We've had two users resort to resetting their password with the FileVault recovery key due to this Reset Password UI change. If anyone else has in an environment with MacOS Sonoma devices managed by MDM, would be interested to know if the same behavior occurs.

Since the last beta update, the phone is requiring a passcode almost immediately after lock. I have Require Passcode configured to 1 hour.If one locks the phone and reopens again, it does not ask. But leaving it a couple minutes locked, it already asks the passcode again.

I have an app which uses mouse to interact in side the app , i want to lock pointer to prevent it from overlap with system gesture on iphone se 2020 like if pointer reach up right corner it grabs notification window i used method like here in WWDC2020 https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10617?time=461 with view controller and called func which should change pointer state from viewDidLoad func import UIKit class ViewController: UIViewController { var pointerLocked :Bool = true override var prefersPointerLocked: Bool { return pointerLocked } override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() changePointerState(newState: false) } func changePointerState(newState:Bool) { pointerLocked=true self.setNeedsUpdateOfPrefersPointerLocked() } }

On iOS you can create a new Lock Screen that contains a bunch of emoji, and they'll get put on the screen in a repeating pattern, like this: When you have two or more emoji they're placed in alternating patterns, like this: How do I write something like that? I need to handle up to three emoji, and I need the canvas as large as the device's screen, and it needs to be saved as an image. Thanks! (I've already written an emojiToImage() extension on String, but it just plonks one massive emoji in the middle of an image, so I'm doing something wrong there.)

I'm developing a background agent program for macOS that locks users out of their session and forces them to re-authenticate if certain security conditions are violated. Previously, I used 'CGSession -suspend' to do this, but it no longer works in Big Sur. One recommendation I've seen is to create a macro that uses the default keyboard shortcut (ie 'CTRL+CMD+Q'), however this obviously won't work if the user has configured their shortcuts differently; the same goes for other methods that require certain user preferences to be set (eg run 'pmset displaysleepnow' after setting preferences to require password immediately after sleep or screensaver). I'm looking for something that's more authoritative/dependable than that, eg an API of some sort. Does such a thing exist?

if you properly link a guardian account to a teenagers account can you use the teenagers account to set up a developer account?

Our VoIP app uses CallKit and is currently affected by a strange iOS 13 bug on incoming calls when the device is locked. After initializing the AudioSession I get tons of the following error message while trying to access speaker and microphone:[aurioc] 1590: AUIOClient_StartIO failedBefore accessing speaker and microphone I initialize my audiosession in:func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXAnswerCallAction) { ... let session = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() try? session.setCategory(.playAndRecord, mode: .voiceChat, policy: .default, options: .allowBluetooth) ... }and wait until the folloing function gets called by callkit:func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, didActivate audioSession: AVAudioSession) { .. }This should ensure that the AudioSession is completely intialized. But it doesn't work, I get no audio and the described error message.All incoming calls are working perfectly on iOS12 or earlier and they also work when the iOS 13 device is unlocked. So this problem only occurs
