Reply to Prevent uninstall app by "Offload unused apps"
There’s no documented setting for that. Imagine if there were: many apps would use it and thus defeat the purpose of the offload feature. For now your best bet is to advise the user to disable the global offload feature, with a detailed explanation of the motivation for doing so. But it’s still the user's choice. You could also file a Feedback requesting support for this, such as a hard-to-get entitlement for apps like yours.

Reply to Whatsapp for business - not saving quick reply(under business tools) on IOS 16.3.1.
There could be several reasons why quick replies are not being saved on WhatsApp for Business on iOS 16.3.1. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: 1.Check if you have the latest version of WhatsApp for Business installed on your device. If not, update it from the App Store. 2.Make sure that you have enabled the Quick Replies feature in the Business Settings of your WhatsApp account. To do this, go to Settings > Business Settings > Quick Replies and toggle the switch to ON. 3.Ensure that you have granted WhatsApp permission to access your device's microphone and camera. Quick Replies require access to these features to work properly. 4.Try clearing the cache of WhatsApp. Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage, find WhatsApp in the list of apps, and tap on it. Then, tap Offload App or Delete App to remove it from your device. After that, reinstall WhatsApp and try setting up Quick Replies again. 5.If none of the above solutions work, contact WhatsApp support for further assist

iPad “other” category is using 9 gigs of my 32 gig iPad. I have offloaded and dumped everything
I have offloaded and deleted so much and i the storage does not go down at all. It is at nine gig now and I have absolutely nothing on my iPad. I feel like this is very suspicious. Nothing works to clear it off and Apple‘s excuse is it will go away. It’s not going away it’s getting worse. I have one game that I play along with, Hulu, Facebook and messenger and most of the time I have the circular thing going on on my screen and can’t play the game or watch anything. the iPad is paid for, the service is paid for. Apple, What more do you want?

Reply to Cannot uninstall XCode Previews App iOS 15
You say Xcode Previews has no security concern? You also say health could not be un-installed yet is allowed the capabilities of offloading the app. The purpose of Xcode Previews is to back door in to your device effortlessly sandboxed while testing your own apps in real time as you edit them, this can also be done remotely . And that is a security concern . I have researched and done some brushing up on this app since the launch of the iOS being installed to my device while connected via apple car play to my cars navigation and entertainment system that alternatively fried and damaged my vehicles electronics . This occurrence has also been acknowledged by apple that such an error occurred within the CarPlay features due to an accidental exploit during the update and that acknowledgment had since been de-published from community forums. Back in late December 2021. So don’t bother looking anymore. However the forums at XDA may still have the sources . I am no developer, even though I had researched th

AppGroup data of offloaded apps lost after restoring from iCloud backup
I was able to reproduce this with our own app as well as with apps by other developers (e.g. Documents by Readdle).Our app stores its data in the app group:Foundation.FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: AppGroupConstants.appGroupIdentifier).appendingPathComponent(File Provider Storage, isDirectory: true)!.appendingPathComponent(Media, isDirectory: true)1) Install the app from the App Store2) Add some data3) Manually offload the app (Settings -> General -> iPhone/iPad Storage -> *App Name* -> Offload App)4) Backup device to iCloud5) Reset device (Settings -> General -> Erase All Content and Settings)6) Restore device from iCloud Backup (this is important - it works with iTunes backups)7) Open the app. Because it was offloaded it gets downloaded at this point but the app group data is NOT restored.This looks like a serious bug to me.Can someone confirm this?

TaskGroup lockup with more than 7 tasks
Platform: macOS 12.4, MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Quad-Core i5, 16GB RAM I'm trying to read an OSLog concurrently because it is big and I don't need any of the data in order. Because the return from .getEntries is a sequence, the most efficient approach seems to be to iterate through. Iteration through the sequence from start to finish can take a long time so I thought I can split it up into days and concurrently process each day. I'm using a task group to do this and it works as long as the number of tasks is less than 8. When it works, I do get the result faster but not a lot faster. I guess there is a lot of overhead but actually it seems to be that my log file is dominated by the processing on 1 of the days. Ideally I want more concurrent tasks to break up the day into smaller blocks. But as soon as I try to create 8 or more tasks, I get a lockup with the following error posted to the console. enable_updates_common timed out waiting for updates to reenable Here are my tests. First - a pure iterative approach. No t

Reply to Other Storage Taking Too Much Space
I have the same problem, I have a iPhone XR, with 64gb of less than one year old. The other storage is 37Gb big, the memory is completely full, can’t even open my mail. I have offloaded almost all apps. It seemed that with offloading the problem got worse… One month ago I had the same. A reset reduced other storage to 5gb, but I am not looking forward to a reset every month. Yesterday, the other storage was 36gb, today already added another 1gb. It is really unacceptable. Apple support only suggest a factory reset. My old iPhone SE with 16gb is even more useful than this phone!!

Reply to How to download this file when iPhone is out of storage space
Hi, not quite sure if your question is regarding the available storage space, or the download itself. But if your device has not enough storage available you can temporarily offload apps to free up space, or upload images and files to iCloud to free up enough space to download the file of your choice. Either way remember that filling your phones storage up so much can lead to software updates not working and therefore system data can build up. Take care David

Reply to identifierForVendor change when offload app?
I disagree with MobileTen. I don't think the page that he links to says anything about offloading. Offloading is a relatively new feature in iOS. If the identifierForVendor changed during offloading, many apps that predated offloading (including one of mine!) would have had problems as a result. I have not seen any such problems, which makes me think that the identifierForVendor does not change. But I could be wrong; users do not always report problems. Anyone else have any experience to share? (Of course the safe thing to do is to assume that it can change at any time.)

Reply to Other Storage Taking Too Much Space
I was struggling with having over 500gb used of 1TB with over 300gb dedicated to Other Initially, I had 200gb worth of videos that I offloaded, then removed from the deleted folder. Seems that the needle didn't move much and for nearly a day, it stated I had 85gb worth of videos left. After seeing the alarm comment with 35gb of data, it hit me. I was using FilmIC Pro to record some of my videos because it has a pause feature which is really nice. I do have it set to save to my photos album, but FilmIc uses a system folder (maybe because it is hidden) to record the video before it transfers over to Photos. FilmIC can also be setup to not sent anything to the photos album. It has its own camera roll. So, it is a matter of choice. I choose for it to go to the photos folder so that I can see it immediately. So why didn't FilmIc clear the cache I wondered. I rebooted the phone earlier and it didn't work. So then, I opened up the photos app, looked to ensure nothing was in deleted folder, then swiped up to

TTS Alex voice is treated like available when it's actually not
Hello everybody! In my app I allow the user to change TTS voices and English Alex voice is one of possible options. However, there are some cases when it's treated as available when it's actually not. It results in pronouncing the TTS utterance with another voice. To prepare the list of available voices I use next code: NSMutableArray *voices = [NSMutableArray new]; for (AVSpeechSynthesisVoice *voice in [AVSpeechSynthesisVoice speechVoices]) { tt[voices addObject:@{ tttt@id: voice.identifier, tttt@name: voice.name, tttt@language: voice.language, tttt@quality: (voice.quality == AVSpeechSynthesisVoiceQualityEnhanced) ? @500 : @300 tt}]; } To start the playback I use the next code (here it's simplified a bit): AVSpeechUtterance *utterance = [[AVSpeechUtterance alloc] initWithString:text]; utterance.voice = [AVSpeechSynthesisVoice voiceWithIdentifier:voice]; [AVSpeechSynthesizer speakUtterance:utterance]; Cases when AVSpeechSynthesisVoice returns Alex as available when it's not: The easiest way to reproduce it is

Permission to bulk operate on other apps
I would like to create an application that let's a user bulk operate on apps. Some features: Bulk operations: - delete - organize by color (some like organizing their screens by color) - organize by type (education, reading, games, etc.) - organize apps which users want to hide - organize last access time - bulk offload apps (removing the app, saving the data) I am struggling to find, however, any notion of enabling permissions for this in an apple app. The permission I am looking for is akin to a user allowing an app to delete (duplicate) photos/videos off of their device. The area I think it would be is here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements If this functionality exists, can I please be directed to the documentation for this? Many thanks! Best, Daniel Connelly

Reply to Recommandations for network and server-side improvements to network delays
This answer is for home routers. Much of the bufferbloat on the internet is on the home router and ISP head ends. There is only so much you can do end-to-end - and the advice in the video is primarily targeted at LTE <-> server interactions. Definitely take a hard look at your server behaviors as I wrote above! I've written a lot and given many presentations on the bufferbloat problems in the typical home or office network, one of the more amusing is here: https://blog.apnic.net/2020/01/22/bufferbloat-may-be-solved-but-its-not-over-yet/ To improve the ISP link... encourage your customers to get better home routers with Smart Queue Management (SQM), and fq-codel for the wifi. It's universally available from third party router firmwares like openwrt, dd-wrt, merlin, and tomato. It's also available for most gamer routers (netduma calls it anti-bufferbloat), it's the premier feature of the evenroute (eero also), ubnt's edgerouter products and the udm pro also have sqm. IP fire, tangledOS also, it's a really
