Apple Maps Guides

Hello All, I’m working on a computer-vision–heavy iOS application that uses the camera, LiDAR depth maps, and semantic segmentation to reason about the environment (object identification, localization and measurement - not just visualization). Current architecture I initially built the image pipeline around CIImage as a unifying abstraction. It seemed like a good idea because: CIImage integrates cleanly with Vision, ARKit, AVFoundation, Metal, Core Graphics, etc. It provides a rich set of out-of-the-box transforms and filters. It is immutable and thread-safe, which significantly simplified concurrency in a multi-queue pipeline. The LiDAR depth maps, semantic segmentation masks, etc. were treated as CIImages, with conversion to CVPixelBuffer or MTLTexture only at the edges when required. Problem I’ve run into cases where Core Image transformations do not preserve numeric fidelity for non-visual data. Example: Rendering a CIImage-backed segmentation mask into a larger CVPixelBuffer can cause l

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

Is there a way to create a grocery list in swift programmatically? With color and icon? I mean the new Reminders.app v7.0 features. I don't find code or guide in the dev documentation.

I have registered for Apple developer program since December and up until now, I am still stuck on payment. I have tried several credit cards but no response. they said it takes 48 days, but mine is over 2 months now. I have sent a message to support and no response. pls what is happening and why is my experience different? why is Apple not debiting my cards and why is support ghosting me. I registered using the official Apple developer enrollment website

Hi! I'm building a Screen Time management app using FamilyControls and ManagedSettings. When a user taps the primary button on a ShieldActionExtension, I need to open my main app to guide them through an intervention exercise. Other approved App Store apps like Jomo - Screen Time Blocker do exactly this: tapping their shield's primary button opens the main Jomo app directly. Screen recording: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15yubtTdTkFskGCIaAw_HGB57-boHPl3a/view?usp=sharing I've tried: URL schemes (UIApplication.shared.open() unavailable in extensions) Universal links Local notifications (works, but adds an extra tap) NSUserActivity Is there a supported API I'm missing? Or another accepted solution? Any guidance is appreciated.

Hi, I enrolled and paid on February 4, and I also opened a support case (ID: 20000106619808), but I haven’t received any response yet. My account still shows as “pending,” and I’m not sure what to do next. Can someone from the Apple team please help or let me know how to get in touch with the right support channel?

Hello, I have a question regarding payments for iOS apps in Russia. Currently, In-App Purchases are not available or do not work for many users in Russia, making it impossible for them to purchase digital subscriptions or digital content via Apple IAP. Is it allowed to: use an external payment provider available only in Russia, show this option only to users located in that region, and unlock access to digital content after payment is completed outside the app (for example, via a web page), in cases where Apple IAP is technically unavailable? Is there any official guidance or exception for regions where Apple IAP cannot be used? Thank you.
