“A Summary of the WWDC26 Group Lab”

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.

I am embedding an Electron app within my main app for the macOS App Store. The electron component needs an app group that is named TEAMID.bundle-id But the web interface on developer.apple.com won't allow me to enter anything that isn't prefixed by group

Based off the Apple documentation, I expected to see that the notification with the highest relevance score was featured in the Notification Summary. However, when sending several notifications from a single app with the new relevance score field, I am consistently seeing the most recent notification be featured in the Summary — not the one with the highest score. I am using Xcode 13 beta 5 and a device running iOS 15 beta 6. This is the sample payload sent via APNs (with the relevance score being updated between sends): { aps: { alert: { title: Relevance score: 0.4, body: body text here. }, interruption-level : active, relevance-score : 0.4 } } I have also confirmed that the UNNotificationContent object has the relevance score field populated with the expected double when receiving the push on the device.

At one point, Mac Mail's apple added a summarize functionality that worked. Now when I click on Summarize, I get: Summaries Unavailable Mail summarization is unavailable at this time. Try again later. I've rebooted, stopped/restarted Apple AI, waited a day to see if it was synching up things, etc. I'm running the latest version of Apple OS (Version 15.1 (24B82)). any ideas?

Hello, I need to get reports of summary app rating per country or region. I see the data is available in app store connect UI: https://help.apple.com/app-store-connect/#/devd15088dd0 However, I can not find an api to automatically retrieve those statistics. Anyone can help me with this? Thanks in advance!

In Apple health I have the data for current day & my Application also connected with Apple Health. I gave all permissions regarding the health records. Some of the user the summary query is not getting executed & no data returned from the query. Most of the users are working fine. Background fetch is also enabled for Apple Health. The user is trying to sync the data in foreground. In crashlytics I got the error Protected health data is inaccessible. Can you please help me when this error may come.

If i create 2 Subscriptions (Auto Renewable) Group A and B on iTunes Connect for my app, and from app a specific user buys subscription from Group A, and after that user goes to Manage my Subscription in either iTunes on Mac or View his Apple ID from iPhone Settings Menu, Will he see other subscription options from Group A that he originally subscribed from or will he see Subscriptions options from Group B as well?

There doesn't seem to be a What's New in Networking or What's New in Foundation talk this year, and nothing mentioned in the various Release Notes, so can you summarize the overall changes across platforms, or point to a document that does so?

After a few days of excitement waiting, I was very disappointed to receive the reply email without any explanation. Your registration request for Apple Vision Pro Developer Lab has not been approved at the moment. I saw on the internet that some people can pass the application just by taking screenshots of downloaded sample codes, while my serious developed application was rejected. Could someone please tell me the criteria for judging?

Hi, My App has some work to guide users to allow notification authorization pop-ups. But now in iOS 15, according to different settings, the system will pop up two different styles of pop-ups. So, I wonder if there is a way for me to get scheduled summary setting before I request notification authorization.

This week I released an app with an IAP and subscription in. Whilst I'd be stunned if anyone had subscribed, I'd like to at least confirm that. However, in App Store Connect, apparently I should have a Subscription Summary according to this article here: https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/view-sales-and-trends/view-subscription-data But I don't have one: Is there any criteria you have to hit to see the subscriptions?

My team is planning on applying for Developer Lab in Tokyo for September sessions, and I would very much appreciate the advice! How long does it take for Apple to give the approval/acceptance after applying for the session? How much time am I allowed for each sessions? it says the Developer Lab sessions will be held from 10 AM to 5 PM, does that mean I get to test my app using the Vision Pro during the entire period? How does the session usually take place? I got the impression that someone from Apple will be assigned to guide and assist me during the session, is this true? Also how many teams are allowed to visit in each sessions? If anyone know anything, please let me know because I am clueless.
