Reply to Xcode 11 install to device fails, code -402620415
Hello guys.. I finally got the solution to this problem; Unable to install MyAppDomain: com.apple.dt.MobileDeviceErrorDomainCode: -402620383--The maximum number of apps for free development profiles has been reached.Domain: com.apple.dt.MobileDeviceErrorDomain Go to the Console app can be found in the Window >> Devices and Simulators >> click the 'Open Console' button in your phone's tab. In the Console app, type MIFreeProfileValidatedAppTracker in the upper right corner's search box will help you find the detail of this message after failed running your app. I have also found that most of the bundle IDs shown in the error message are auto offload apps. Turns out the Xcode misclassified all the auto offloaded apps (apps you have not used for a while) as your free developer account's test apps. If you encounter the same problem, the solution is to re-download all the offload apps. Then, turn off the auto offload in the iPhone Settings - iTunes & App Store - Offload

Reply to Installer plugin hangs in Catalina
Yes, we have a similar problem: We have two installer plugins, and they have worked fine for 12 years (well, every few years, Apple makes a silent change and we have to adjust). Starting in OSX 10.14 or 10.15, the Installer is not working right for us: does not totally hang, but the GUI is non-responsive. Fortunately, in our design, the installation more-or-less finishes.It definitely looks like Apple changed the Installer app to offload any plugin software into other processes: the com.Apple.InstallerRemotePluginService ... it gets its own PID. In our case, a single Installer has three processes are running: Installer and two InstallerRemotePluginService processes.Our issue is that the plugins are not able to dynamically update controls/widgets on the installer GUI. They are updating a progress bar: but the main/GUI thread in the Installer process is not responding. I guess that software in the InstallerRemotePluginService cannot update widgets drawn by the main Installer process??Have not figured o

Reply to Background pull requests.
OK, this specific goal:I need to do a background pull request every 10 seconds using Swift.is not achievable on iOS. Once your app is moved to the background, it is typically suspended, and it can’t make network requests while it’s suspended. There are things you can do to hold off that suspension, and also get resumed in the background, but nothing will give you regular background executable time every 10 seconds.Even if you could, you’d quick run through the user’s battery.You need to rethink your approach. I specifically recommend that you reconsider using push notifications. There’s a reason Apple puts so much emphasis on push notifications. In a push model, you offload this work to a server that doesn’t have to worry about all day battery life.Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” Apple Developer Relations, Developer Technical Support, Core OS/Hardware let myEmail = eskimo + 1 + @apple.com

Reply to Refresh notification content with background task
We have a UNUserNotification that is scheduled for a certain date. The content of this notification might be subject to change as we get closer to its delivery. My preferred way to do this is to offload the logic for ‘rendering’ the notification to a push provider. At that point your app doesn’t need to resume in the background and update the notification; rather, the push provider just sends the right push notification at the right time.If you can’t do that, refreshing the notification on the client is going to be problematic. BGAppRefreshTask is the right option for this but most developers who try to use this tech (which is equivalent to the old ‘background fetch’ mechanism) are disappointed with how infrequently it resumes their app. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” Apple Developer Relations, Developer Technical Support, Core OS/Hardware let myEmail = eskimo + 1 + @apple.com

Do offloaded apps count as app deletions in App Store Connect?
In recent months, App Store Connect has started to report on app deletions. I have an app that is seasonal, and I noticed that I have a lot of deletions recently, usually spiking on Sundays. The number of deletions seemed odd to me, and the spikes seemed especially odd. Then it occurred to me that this might be as a result of iOS offloading apps that have not been used for a long time. Can anyone tell me - is the the case? Do the stats for app deletions include offloads? And also, does anyone know after about how long of a period of not using an app is it offloaded? Eg. 3/6/9 months?

Reply to Do offloaded apps count as app deletions in App Store Connect?
>Do offloaded apps count as app deletionsAppears so, yes. I see no evidence there is a time factor, tho.From ASC Help / Metrics:Deletions: The number of times your app was deleted on devices running iOS 12.3 or tvOS 9 or later by users who agree to share their data with you. This data includes deletions of the app from the Home Screen and deletions of the app through Manage Storage. Data from resetting or erasing a device's content and settings is not included.

And yet, after clearing out all of those settings, offloaded apps and provisioned certs the error message persists. 99$ “protection money” to, ya know, actually use your ~1000EU devices.

Found the answer in this thread. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251383929 Turns out, you can't have any offloaded apps from ANY vendor, including Apple, installed on the device.
