Any chance of still joining the UX Writing Lab?
I have accidentally missed the sign up window for the UX Writing lab by 1 hour, but I'd still love to join it if at all possible. I have had this lab several times in the past and it was always very informative. I have a time tracking app that helps people make the most of their time. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/timelines-time-tracking/id1112433234 I'm looking for guidance on how to improve copywriting in my onboarding sequence, on my paywall, and overall throughout the app. Thank you for considering.

App Crahes on empty VCALENDAR SUMMARY
On a customers iPhone (iOS 11.4.1) my calendar app crashes. We found out that the reason is a Skype-Business Meeting event where the SUMMARY field in the VCALENDAR ist empty:SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=de-DE:On my device with same iOS version it is not crashing. The call stack I got via iTunes connect shows a line where my app analyses the event title with range(of searchString: String) which should not be a problem, also if the title is empty. It looks more that there is some memory out of bounds. I´m now waiting for an answer from user, I asked him to assign the event to another calendar (type) when importing a VCALENDAR with this crash.

Workout Distance summary is in miles. Can I make it meters?
Hello everyone, I'm making an app that saves rowing workouts. Rowing workouts are traditionally in meters. I want my workout summaries to always show in meters. I have created and saved a HKWorkout instance. For the totalDistance, I am saving a quantity that uses HKUnit.meter() as its unit. Any intervals that I've associated with the workout are also saved with HKUnit.meter() as the unit. When I look at the Workout in the Health app, it shows the total distance in miles. All the intervals are in miles as well Is there a special piece of metadata that I need to add to my workout to hint to the Health app that I'd like to always see the summary using meters? How can I get my workout to always be shown in meters in the health app? Thank you for your advice, _ michael

macOS App Groups / transition to profile based groups
Hi, I have a macOS app distributed through the App Store that uses an app group to share data with app extensions. The group identifier has the form: .group. In Xcode 26 I am now asked to convert the project to profile based app groups (like on iOS). My question is: Can I convert the project to profile based app groups and will the existing app group (which is prefixed with the Team ID) continue to work (and will exiting users still be able to access their data). If yes, should I add the app group with or without the Team ID prefix to the profile.

When are Labs Appointment Confirmations Sent? Waiting 3 Days
I submitted a request on Monday (7 June) for a Labs appointment on Friday (11 June). I received an email response that my request was received, but I still don't have any confirmation of an appointment nor a rejection. When are Labs appointments filled for each day? Or is no response essentially that I didn't get an appointment? Thanks! Chris
