A Summary of the WWDC25 Group Lab

Thanks for the post. Sorry for the delay. Very interesting and great question. For alarm-like functionality, local notifications can be paired with custom sounds. The default alarm sounds available on iOS devices are proprietary. This restriction ensures that these sounds remain exclusive to and maintain their intended user experience. As of now, there is no public API that allows developers to access or directly play the built-in iOS alarm sounds in their apps using AlarmKit or any other framework within the iOS SDK. Developers looking to implement alarm functionality in their apps can provide their own audio files. This means you can bundle custom sound files with your app or allow users to select from their own music library I think as well. In summary, as far as I know now, you are currently limited to using custom audio files for alarm sounds in apps, as there is no supported way to access the default iOS alarm tones programmatically.

1 - We implemented the code to upload still images. We would like to do the same for Live Photos, but we are not sure how to proceed since a Live Photo is composed of 2 resources that we would like to upload in the same job so that we keep the association between the 2 resources. I think your only option here is to process the assets as separate jobs and use the URL request to preserve the conceptual link between the assets— for example, embedding that information in the upload URL or in the URL metadata. 2 - Is there a way to synchronise the application and the extension so that the application would not process the same data or execute the same requests as the extension? For example: our application is working with tokens, and we would like to prevent those tokens from being consumed by the application and the extension at the same time. These issues are alluded to at the end of this section where it says: Important: Your extension needs a mechanism to track which assets you’ve already processed and detect

Thanks a lot @DTS Engineer for your response — that solved my issue! I was able to implement it successfully, and everything works as expected now. I’m also sharing a small code example along with a screenshot in case it helps others who come across the same question. AppShortcut( intent: ResumePlaybackIntent(), phrases: [ Reprendre la lecture de (.$resumeVideo) avec (.applicationName), ], shortTitle: Reprendre la lecture, systemImageName: play.circle, parameterPresentation: .init( for: .$resumeVideo, summary: Summary(Reprendre la lecture de (.$resumeVideo)), optionsCollections: { OptionsCollection( ResumeVideoQuery(), title: Reprendre la lecture, systemImageName: play.circle ) } ) ) Really appreciate your help!

I am experiencing the exact same issue. I have two subscription groups each with two products and StoreKit fails to load a single product correctly. I have done this countless times before and know what I am doing. There appears to be something wrong going on with App Store Connect currently thats preventing things from working. This needs to be investigated ASAP!

It can be reproduced in AS's lab, Mac M4 crashed after running ATTO Burn-in in 20~40 minutes. And there is an error report pop up on Mac M4 host.

Based on log analysis, we suspect the root cause is as follows: During the connection authentication phase, the EAPOL packet sent by the MT7682 has a Group Key ID of 0, while the iPhone 15 Pro series does not support a Group Key ID of 0. This causes the encrypted DHCP Offer packet replied by the MT7682 in the subsequent DHCP phase to fail decryption, resulting in the phone never obtaining an IP address. The issue will not be triggered if the AP is unencrypted. However, we would like to know if there is a corresponding setting on the iPhone to enable support for this feature (Group Key ID=0).
