Hello everyone, I’m facing an issue with In-App Purchases during App Review and would appreciate guidance from anyone who has encountered a similar situation. Context: New iOS/iPadOS app, first submission. One Non-Consumable In-App Purchase. IAP was created, fully configured, and submitted together with the app version. IAP status in App Store Connect: In Review. App includes Restore Purchase and uses standard StoreKit purchase flow. Paid Apps Agreement is accepted. Problem: During Apple’s review, when the reviewer taps the purchase button, a generic error appears: “Purchase failed. An error occurred, please try again.” Apple rejected the app under Guideline 2.1 – Performance – App Completeness, stating that the IAP shows a bug. What seems to be happening: The IAP itself is still in review and therefore not fully active, which causes the purchase attempt to fail. However, the app cannot be approved because the purchase fails, creating a circular dependency: App cannot be approved because IAP

[quote='876709022, siddhant-mac, /thread/815755?answerId=876709022#876709022, /profile/siddhant-mac'] is it possible on the macOS login window? [/quote] That depends on what you mean by “it”: If you’re asking whether it’s possible to reuse infrastructure used by Platform SSO then the answer is “No.” If you’re asking whether it’s possible to create an authorisation plug-in that presents a completely passwordless experience, the answer is more nuanced. You can certainly make a lot of progress, but I don’t think there’s a complete solution. Sticking points involve FileVault, as I’ve mentioned above, and unlocking the keychain. This is especially problematic when it comes to the data protection keychain. Honestly, I don’t see a good path forward for this. The authorisation plug-in mechanism has significant issues, and I’m doubtful they’ll be addressed because of limitations in that architecture. Specifically, FileVault support is pretty critical and it’s hard to see how that can happen within the current design.

Announcing the Swift Student Challenge 2026 Every year, Apple’s Swift Student Challenge celebrates the creativity and ingenuity of student developers from around the world, inviting them to use Swift and Xcode to solve real-world problems in their own communities and beyond. Learn more → https://developer.apple.com/swift-student-challenge/ Submissions for the 2026 challenge will open February 6 for three weeks, and students can prepare with new Develop in Swift tutorials and Meet with Apple code-along sessions. The Apple Developer team is here is to help you along the way - from idea to app, post your questions at any stage of your development here in this forum board or be sure to add the Swift Student Challenge tag to your technology-specific forum question. Your designs. Your apps. Your moment.
[quote='876690022, ZKK640, /thread/806582?answerId=876690022#876690022, /profile/ZKK640'] What are the consequences of using Xcode15? [/quote] There are a couple that spring to mind: Xcode 15 doesn’t include the iOS 26 SDK, so you won’t be able to use the latest iOS features. You won’t be able to test your submission properly, because it will ultimately be reviewed on Xcode 26. While Xcode is generally good about working with projects from older versions, the only way to be sure that it’ll work is to try it.

Hi all, I’m an Admin user in an Apple Developer Program (Organization) team, but I’m unable to access Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles (CIP) on developer.apple.com. I’d like to understand what permission is missing and where it should be enabled. Context Program type: Apple Developer Program (Organization) My role in App Store Connect: Admin I can access App Store Connect normally, but CIP resources on developer.apple.com are blocked. The Account Holder can access CIP normally. What I see (Problem) In the Apple Developer portal → Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, I get: “Access Unavailable — You currently don't have access to this membership resource. Contact your team's Account Holder or an Admin.” In Xcode → Settings → Accounts → Team, the “Certificates, Identifiers, & Profiles” section shows a red error indicator and doesn’t load. Only my account is affected; the Account Holder is not. What we’ve tried / confirmed Membership is active (renewal date is valid) S
I’m not an expert on the App Store Connect API, but I can speak to this part of your question: [quote='816166021, Misko_, /thread/816166, /profile/Misko_'] there is a possibility to set Entitlements, which is I understand also called as Template. [/quote] The entitlement template feature is very much an old school path. These days most access to managed entitlements is via additional capabilities. Like any other capability, you set these on your App ID and they flow through to every provisioning profile [1] you create for that App ID. These capabilities have a bunch of advantages, including Xcode integration, compatibility with automatic signing, and the ability to add any combination of the capabilities to a given profile. Given that, the template mechanism is largely deprecated. If you have existing templates you can request that they be migrated to additional capabilities. See Developer Account Help > Reference > Provisioning with capabilities > Migrating additional entitlements to capabilities. T

You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for in-depth analysis and may take longer to complete. As you notarise your apps, the system will learn how to recognise them, and you should see fewer delays. For lots of additional info about notarisation, see Notarisation Resources. Specifically, it links to a Q&A with the notary service team that’s quite instructive.

[quote='816179021, GangOrca, /thread/816179, /profile/GangOrca'] Whereas, with conditional variables, there are no warnings. [/quote] I wouldn’t read too much into that. These warnings have to be explicitly coded, and we added that code for Dispatch semaphores because that’s the most common offender here. It wouldn’t surprise me if we added a similar warning for pthread condition variables at some point in the future. Then again, it wouldn’t surprise me if we didn’t. The pthreads API is relatively obscure. [quote='816179021, GangOrca, /thread/816179, /profile/GangOrca'] What is the recommend way? [/quote] There isn’t a supported way to block the main thread of a GUI application for long periods of time. On macOS it will SPOD, which is a terrible user experience. On other platforms the app will likely end up being killed by the watchdog. And to be clear, the issue here isn’t about the specific APIs you’re using, it’s this overall design. Speaking of iOS and friends, app termination [1] behaves very differently

Hi! We are facing App Rejection from Apple due to this <> Guidelines 5.1.1(i) - Legal - Privacy - Data Collection and 5.1.2(i) - Legal - Privacy - Data Use Issue Description Issue Description The app appears to share the user’s personal data with a third-party AI service but the app does not clearly explain what data is sent, identify who the data is sent to, and ask the user’s permission before sharing the data. Apps may only use, transmit, or share personal data after they meet all of the following requirements: Obtain the user’s permission before sending data Next Steps If the app sends user data to a third-party AI service, revise the app to ask the user’s permission before sharing personal data with a third-party AI service. If it does not already, the app’s privacy policy must also identify what data the app collects, how it collects that data, and all uses of that data, including if it is shared with a third-party AI service.

Do you guys know how to fix the render of the text in the accessory view ? If I force the color of text to be .black it work but it will break dark mode, but forcing it .black : .white on color scheme changes makes white to still adapt to what is behind it I have noticed that Apple Music doesn’t have that artifact and it seems to break when images are behind the accessory view // MARK: - Next Routine Accessory @available(iOS 26.0, *) struct NetxRoutinesAccessory: View { @ObservedObject private var viewModel = RoutineProgressViewModel.shared @EnvironmentObject var colorSchemeManager: ColorSchemeManager @EnvironmentObject var routineStore: RoutineStore @EnvironmentObject var freemiumKit: FreemiumKit @ObservedObject var petsStore = PetsStore.shared @Environment(.colorScheme) private var colorScheme // Tab accessory placement environment @Environment(.tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement) private var accessoryPlacement // Navigation callback var onTap: (() -> Void)? @State private var isButtonPressed = fal

When disabling the opacity slider of color panels, my app crashes with unsatisfiable layout constraints. Feel free reproduce with a minimal test project: A macOS app based on the Xcode 26.0 template with only one line added to the ViewController's viewDidLoad() function: NSColorPanel.shared.showsAlpha = false The issue doesn't occur if this property is set to true or not set at all. I just filed a corresponding bug report (FB20269686), although I don't expect any feedback from Apple ... as numerous issues I reported were never updated or commented at all (after migrating from RADARs).
