Hi, We are facing the issue of commissioning our Matter device to google home through iOS device will be 100% failed. Here is our test summary regarding the issue: TestCase1 [OK]: Commissioning our Matter 1.4.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by Android device (see log DoorWindow_2.0.1_Google_Success.txt ) TestCase2 [NG]: Commissioning Matter 1.4.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by iPhone13 or iPhone16 (see log DoorWindow_2.0.1_Google_by_iOS_NG.txt ) TestCase3 [OK]: Commissioning our Matter 1.3.0 device to Google Nest Hub 2 by iPhone13 In TestCase2, we noticed that device was first commissioned to iOS(Apple keychain) then iOS opened a commissioning window again to commission it in Google’s ecosystem, and the device was failed at above step 2, so we also tried: Commissioning the device to Apple Home works as expected, next share the device to Google Home app on iOS, this also fails. Commissioning the device to Apple Home works as expected, next share the device to Google Home app on Android, this works as ex

Hello, I am encountering the following error when uploading a build to App Store Connect: ITMS-90555: Thinned app size is too large – Your on-demand resources in the universal variant are 30 GB, which exceeds the maximum allowable size. After app thinning, the total size of your on-demand resource asset packs in any variant must be less than 30 GB. Our application includes a large amount of font resources delivered via ODR. Before making structural changes, I need clarification because the documentation does not fully explain how ODR size calculations work per variant. Environment Xcode: (latest stable) Distribution method: App Store submission ODR total size before thinning: approximately (28 GB) Build processing fails immediately with the ITMS-90555 error Questions How exactly does App Thinning compute the size of ODR asset packs per variant? Is ODR size evaluated: Per device-specific variant, Or is the “universal variant” treated as an additional variant that must independently stay under 30GB? The documen

Hi, I am developing a NSReplicatedFileProvider extension. Part of that I am also doing a Finder Sync Extension, but I am for whatever reason unable to enable the extension. What am I missing? it is signed properly, it has the right app group. Is there anything else I nede to enable for it? When I do this: pluginkit -m | grep -i XXXFinderSync I get com.clio.XXX-Desktop.XXXFinderSync(1.0) Not that - shows up as bullet point. The hyphen signifies it is disabled.

Hi all, Our company is applying for the Find My certification for our smartwearable product. Now we submitted the product plan and it's approved. The lab asked us to get the token but we searched on internet and the documents about it are limited. The CSR has approved and we already had .pem and .key file. I wonder what should we do next. Any helps are appreciated

Hello, I am unable to submit ANY of my apps for External TestFlight review. Every time I try to add a build to an external group and press Submit for Review, I immediately get this error: There was an error processing your request. Please try again later. This happens on multiple apps in the same account: LM Mobile (Apple ID: 6755979316) TPM Mobile (newly created app) All of the following have been verified and are active: Paid & Free App Agreements Banking & Tax forms App Privacy (Published) Test Information is fully completed Multiple clean builds uploaded (1.0.0 build 1 and 2) Correct distribution via App Store Connect selected in Xcode Admin + Account Holder role This clearly confirms that the problem is ACCOUNT-LEVEL on the backend. Case Number: 102766190091 Could an Apple engineer please check and reset the stuck External TestFlight submission state on the server side? Thank you.

Problem: custom icons for folder aliases not showing System drive and external drive custom alias folder icons don't showup on desktop or external drive (OS14.6 Sonoma 2023); they only show-up as plain folders or with an odd document icon. Alias doesn't connect to image; however it's there, easily accessible via spacebar. Finder doesn't save the custom icon to the alias. See below for workaround. Summary: I have custom alias icons on my desktop linking to their source files on the system drive and external drive.. however they do not display the custom icon. After upgrading from OS10.14 Mojave to OS14.6 Sonoma 2023, system drive & external drive custom alias icons no longer display the icon on either drive (there is a work-around for Mojave; see history section). Personal impact: hampered file navigation and workflow; I'm lost, can't tell where anything is; not having my icons makes it especially difficult to navigate my files and hampers my workflow significantly. Desired outcome: all custom ico

I am working on Screen Record function in Apple Vision Pro, when I use broadcast upload extension, after I click record button, the XCode console show the exception: <<<< FigAudioSession(AV) >>>> audioSessionAVAudioSession_CopyMXSessionProperty signalled err=-19224 (kFigAudioSessionError_UnsupportedOperation) (getMXSessionProperty unsupported) at FigAudioSession_AVAudioSession.m:606 we create and config the project as flow: Create a Apple Vision Project. Create a Broadcast Upload Extension Target. Add App Group for Project Target and Extension Target, both use the same identifier. Add Main Camera Access, Passthrough in Screen Capture Capabilities for all targets. Add NSScreenCaptureUsageDescription, NSMicrophoneUsageDescription in Plist. Add record button in view Run debug in Apple Vision Pro device, after click record button, throw the exception.

Two subscriptions, Plus and Max, are under the same subscription group, with Max having a higher tier than Plus. Promotional Offers for Max are configured in Apple Store Connect. When a user subscribes to Plus and then upgrades to Max using Promotional Offers, they are prompted with Upgrade upon expiration (Figure 1); if they don't use Promotional Offers, they are prompted to Upgrade immediately (Figure 2). Question 1: What is the situation with the upgrade upon expiration message in Figure 1? Is upgrading using Promotional Offers special? I couldn't find any relevant explanation in Apple's technical documentation. Question 2: Figure 1 shows an upgrade upon expiration, but after subscribing, the webhook still shows the subscription start time as the current time, meaning the upgrade hasn't started immediately. Is the message incorrect?

Our team is in the process of updating our apps to comply with Texas's new state law. In order to minimize user confusion and provide the most ideal flow to access the app as possible, we have a few questions we would like answered. Summary of questions: Is isEligibleForAgeFeatures intended to be accurate and accessible before the user has accepted the Age Range permissions prompt? As other US states and/or other countries adopt a similar law going forward, will this instance variable cover those locations? Will the runtime crashes on isEligibleForAgeFeatures and other symbols in the DeclaredAgeRange framework be addressed in a future RC or in the official release? Details and Investigations: With regards to isEligibleForAgeFeatures, our team has noticed that this value is always false before the age range prompt has been accepted. This has been tested on the XCode RC 26.2 (17C48). Assuming the request needs to be accepted first, isEligibleForAgeFeatures does not get updated immediately when the user

Hi, I found an issue related to dynamic app icon changes using UIApplication.shared.setAlternateIconName specifically on iOS 26.1. Test Scenario 1. Change icon using: UIApplication.shared.setAlternateIconName(TestIcon) → Works correctly. 2. Revert to primary icon using: UIApplication.shared.setAlternateIconName(nil) Issue on iOS 26.1 For some users, the device does not revert back to the primary icon when calling setAlternateIconName(nil). To handle this case, we attempted to force the primary icon by explicitly calling: UIApplication.shared.setAlternateIconName(AppIcon) However, on iOS 26.1: • As soon as this call is made, the entire setAlternateIconName API stops working. • Every subsequent call to setAlternateIconName fails. • The API begins returning errors (e.g. NSPOSIXErrorDomain code 35). • The issue persists until the device is rebooted. Expected Behavior We understand that providing AppIcon should not change the icon (since primary icon is restored using nil), but on earlier versions of iOS (≤ 26.0):
