testflight the requested app is not avaliable

I have a $4 USD, one-time-purchase app (Dash Calc) and sales have been rough. In a crowded category, an paid-upfront app feels like a tough sell without a way to try it first. I’d like to offer a simple 7-day free trial followed by a single lifetime purchase, but App Store Connect still doesn’t officially support trials for paid apps. In Jan 2023, an App Store Commerce Engineer recommended the $0 non-consumable IAP + paid non-consumable IAP workaround: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/722874 I haven’t implemented it yet, but the subsequent discussion suggests the approach is overly complex. Handling refunds, reinstalls, activation timing, and purchase history requires non-obvious logic, and some developers report customer confusion and drop-off when presented with a $0 trial IAP. Has anything improved since 2023? Any new StoreKit APIs or App Store Connect changes that make this simpler or less error-prone? Is the $0 non-consumable IAP still the re

I have a large code that I try to update to change deprecated APIs. In the former version, I used forWritingWith and forReadingWith let data = NSMutableData() let archiver = NSKeyedArchiver(forWritingWith: data) archiver.encode(myObject, forKey: theKey) if let data = NSMutableData(contentsOf: anURL) { let unarchiver = NSKeyedUnarchiver(forReadingWith: data as Data) let myObject = unarchiver.decodeObject(forKey: theKey) as! TheObjectType // <<-- returns the object That I changed to let data = NSMutableData() let archiver = NSKeyedArchiver(requiringSecureCoding: true) archiver.encode(myObject, forKey: theKey) if let data = NSMutableData(contentsOf: anURL) { do { let unarchiver = try NSKeyedUnarchiver(forReadingFrom: data as Data) let myObject = unarchiver.decodeObject(forKey: theKey) as? TheObjectType // <<-- This returns nil This builds correctly. But on execution, unarchiver.decodeObject now returns nil. I have searched extensively to find the cause to no avail. I may probably change the

Hi, I’m implementing a macOS DNS Proxy as a system extension and running into a persistent activation error: OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain error 9 (validationFailed) with the message: extension category returned error This happens both on an MDM‑managed Mac and on a completely clean Mac (no MDM, fresh install).

We've often observed connectivity issues from our VPN app that can only be remedied by removing the VPN profile. It happens to a small but significant amount of our users, this often happens more when the app is updated, but the VPN profile corruption can happen without that too. The behavior we're observing is that any socket opened by the packet tunnel process just fails to send any data whatsoever. Stopping and restarting the packet tunnel does not help. The only solution is to remove the profile and create a new one. We believe our app is not the only one suffering from this issue as other VPN apps have added a specific button to refresh their VPN profile, which seemingly deletes and re-created the VPN configuration profile. Previously, we've caught glimpses of this in a sysdiagnose, but that was a while ago and we found nothing of interest. Alas, the sysdiagnose was not captured on a device with the network extension diagnostic profile (it wa

Hi! I was able to successfully persist my debug log entires using the OSLogPreferences key in my Info.plist and retrieve the logs from my iPhone using log collect. This worked to get log messages created when my app executed a background task tonight (2026-01-20 00:20). But log Debug and Default log messages from a normal run yesterday (2026-01-19 15:34) disappeared. I can query for the missing messages in the log archive I created yesterday but they are missing in the log archive I created today covering also yesterday. I had invoked: % sudo log collect --device-name --last 25h --output /tmp/system_logs.logarchive ... %sudo log show /tmp/system_logs.logarchive --debug --info --predicate 'subsystem==com.example.MyApp' Is this expected and/or is there anything I could do to persist the logs for a longer period? For reference, that's what I have added to my Info.plist for the debug build configuration so far: OSLogPreferences com.example.MyApp DEFAULT-OPTIONS Level Enable Debug Persist Debug Enab

After registe Passkey with webauthn library, i create a passkeyRegistration with follow, let passkeyRegistration = ASPasskeyRegistrationCredential(relyingParty: serviceIdentifier, clientDataHash: clientDataHashSign, credentialID: credentialId, attestationObject: attestationObject) and then completeRegistrationRequest like that, extensionContext.completeRegistrationRequest(using: passkeyRegistration) But a bad outcome occurred from user agent. NotAllowedError:The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context. And the return data rawID & credentialPublicKey is empty,

Dears, this is my first ever piece of code on Mac. I wanted to try ShazamKit. I created App Id and enabled App Service ShazamKit. I properly configured my app (a very small test app) with the proper boundle id, Team and entitlements file. I keep receiving this error in the Signing in section: Automatic signing failed Xcode failed to provision this target. Please address the following issues preventing automatic signing from creating a valid profile. Entitlement com.apple.developer.shazamkit not found and could not be included in profile. This likely is not a valid entitlement and should be removed from your entitlements file I noticed the message is mentioning profile...does it refer to a Profile as in Certificate/Identifiers/Devices/Profiles/Keys/Services option? I did not create any Profile. I just enabled the App Service under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles=>Identifiers=>Edit your App ID Configuration=
