Hi everyone, I’m currently researching Apple Watch pairing behavior and diagnostic logging across different setup modes. I can reliably trigger a co-sysdiagnose on an Apple Watch when it is paired in a normal standalone / standard configuration. In that case, the expected co-sysdiagnose archive appears on the paired iPhone. However, in a Family Setup / managed account scenario, behavior is different: The watch provides the expected haptic feedback after the sysdiagnose button combination But no co-sysdiagnose archive appears on the paired iPhone afterward The same hardware behaves differently depending on pairing/account configuration My question is: Is co-sysdiagnose collection, transport, or availability intentionally different for Family Setup / managed Apple Watch devices? For example: Are logs stored elsewhere? Is transfer to the organizer iPhone restricted? Is co-sysdiagnose unsupported in Family Setup mode? Are additional conditions required, such as Wi-Fi, charging state, un

Hi all, I’m trying to determine whether the loudness gap I’m seeing between AlarmKit alert playback and normal app-managed playback is expected behavior, a sound-asset issue, or something that should be reported as a bug. Observed behavior When an alarm fires through AlarmKit while the device is locked, the alarm sound is significantly quieter than playback of the same or very similar audio once the app is active and using its own audio session. The difference is large enough that it does not feel like a small mastering difference. It feels like the AlarmKit / system alerting path is using a meaningfully lower effective output level than normal app playback. Test scenario My repro is roughly: Schedule an alarm with AlarmKit. Lock the device. Let the alarm fire and listen during the system alerting phase. Enter the app / continue into the app-driven alarm experience. Play the same or equivalent alarm asset via app-managed playback. Result: AlarmKit / lock-screen alerting phase sounds much quieter. In-app playb

I am requesting full deletion and termination of my apple developer account and all data and revocation of the Apple Developer Agreement. I am revoking Apple Developer Agreement. This should be irreversible. I have already tried to contact apple developer support few times and the request just gets ignored and closed. The developer account is associated with my Apple ID that I am on forums with. Thanks.

Hello Apple Developer commuinty! We have been developing a VPN client app with unique protocol for quite a while, and now it have come to publishing it in App Store/Google play. I know that publishing a VPN service requires organization(which i cant register because of my life situation), that why i have choosen to make a client. User is NOT necessarily required to use official hosting, theres an option of importing external key. App itself, doesnt contain any hardcoded server credentials and such, but it does have option to get free config from website by click. For some reason, my app review have not gone well. Apple have claimed my app have violated Guidelines 4.3(a) and 5.4. In all of my respect for App Review Team, but claim on Guideline 4.3(a) - Spam is completely ridiculous! App was completely written from the ground, not only including protocol, but the design itself. The MONOGON style, is unique application style which no other app on app store have seen(featuring dotted ASCII style

Hi, I’m looking for clarification from folks familiar with CoreHID rather than App Review, as the guys there have not responded to my post (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/820676) We have a sandboxed macOS app that creates a virtual HID device (HIDVirtualDevice) as described in Creating virtual devices https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corehid/creatingvirtualdevices To work at all, the app requires the entitlement: com.apple.developer.hid.virtual.device With this entitlement present, macOS shows the system prompt requesting Accessibility permission App would like to control this computer using accessibility features. Grant access to this application in Security and Privacy preferences located in System Preferences. when HIDVirtualDevice(properties:) is called. There is no mention of Accessibility in the HIDVirtualDevice documentation, but the behavior is reproducible and seems unavoidable. My question is therefore: Is creating a virtual HID device from userspace via HIDVirtualDevice consider

When I create a SwiftUI toolbar item with placement of .keyboard on iOS 26, the item appears directly on top of and in contact with the keyboard. This does not look good visually nor does it match the behavior seen in Apple's apps, such as Reminders. Adding padding to the contents of the toolbar item only expands the size of the item but does not separate the capsule background of the item from the keyboard. How can I add vertical padding or spacing to separate the toolbar item capsule from the keyboard?

Hello, I am encountering a UI layout issue on iOS 26 where UITabBar items become squashed or overlapping during device rotation (from Portrait to Landscape). This glitch occurs specifically when a custom UITabBarAppearance is applied. 1. Liquid Glass and UITabBar Customization According to TN3106, Apple states: Starting in iOS 26, reduce your use of custom backgrounds in navigation elements and controls. While the techniques in this document remain valid for iOS 18 and earlier, prefer to remove custom effects and let the system determine the navigation bar background appearance. Any custom backgrounds and appearances you use in the navigation bar might overlay or interfere with Liquid Glass or other effects that the system provides, such as the scroll edge effect. Does this guidance also apply to UITabBar? Specifically, could setting a custom background color via UITabBarAppearance interfere with internal layout constraints required for the Liquid Glass effect to adapt correctly during orientation ch

Getting a couple of errors on the Signing & Capabilities section in Xcode when trying to provision my iPhone for on-device prototyping. Communication with Apple failed Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/ No profiles for 'com.danieljbuckley.Throwaway' were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'com.danieljbuckley.Throwaway'. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hello, We are facing an issue with In-App Purchases (subscriptions) in two iOS apps built with React Native + react-native-iap. Issue Some users receive the error: E_CONNECTION_CLOSED during the purchase flow. However: The payment is successfully deducted via the App Store. The subscription appears in the user's Apple ID subscription list. But on our side: The app does not receive the StoreKit transaction callback No receipt or transaction ID is delivered Our backend cannot validate the purchase. Restore Purchases When affected users try Restore Purchases, StoreKit returns: No purchases found even though the subscription is visible in their Apple ID. Most affected users are from India, and many payments are made via UPI through App Store billing. Has anyone experienced a case where: *the user is charged *the subscription exists in Apple ID *but StoreKit never returns the transaction or receipt? Any suggestions on how to recover these transactions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
