iPadOS 17.7.7

When I download either the iOS 13 beta 4 or the iPadOS 13 beta 4 profiles in the current Downloads area here on the developer site I get an iOS_iPadOS_13_Beta_Profile.mobileconfig. Is the iPadOS profile valid for iOS beta testing as well?-Doug

I'm pursuing a design that necessitates a dual app architecture — using a NavigationStack for compact-sized screens, and a NavigationSplitView for regular-sized screens. I've encountered what might be a bug in NavigationSplitView on iPadOS 17.x. Or perhaps it's a mistake in my code. When navigating into nested views (relying on NavigationPath), everything works fine... until I background the app on iPad. At this point, the navigation stack appears to collapse in the NavigationSplitView detail area — merging the parent and child views. Adding to the mystery... I can reproduce this bug on iPadOS 17.x. But the problem goes away when running on iPadOS 18.x beta. Key questions: Is there a problem in my code? Should I file a feedback with the Apple SwiftUI team? If iPadOS 18.x fixes this bug, can I expect a SwiftUI fix to be back-ported to 17.x or earlier? Steps to reproduce: Run my sample code on iPadOS simulator. Navigate to select a color, and then a shape. Put the ap

We have met a problem with iPadOS 17.1. We have a normal date picker to choose the date, but in the meantime, we added an onTapGesture to it and did something. With the previous version 17.0, when we click the date picker, the calendar view is popup and lets us choose the date. But when we updated to 17.1, the calendar is not shown as a normal click, only a long press gesture will trigger it. Can someone help to take a look at it?

I'm trying to mask a view displayed inside of the widget to a shape that matches the overall shape on iPadOS 15. If I use it as a .clipShape for my subviews. Here is a simplified example showing what I'm doing. On iPadOS 15, this results in a blue rectangle, rather than a blue round rect as I was hoping for. (The exact same code works fine on iOS 15, and macOS Monterey). struct InsetView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Text(Top) Text(Bottom) } .frame(maxWidth:.infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(Color.blue) .padding(10) .clipShape(ContainerRelativeShape()) } } Is this expected behavior, a bug or am I just using this API incorrectly? Any pointers would be great appreciated. Again this is an issue I'm only seeing on iPadOS 15 (betas 1-5, i.e. all betas so far), it works absolutely fine on iOS 15 beta, and macOS Monterey beta.

Hello everyone, I am currently developing several Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) and I am wondering if it’s possible to programmatically open an installed PWA on iOS/iPadOS from another app or a link. My goal is to be able to launch an installed PWA directly from an action in another PWA, a web app, or a native app on iOS. For example, I’d like to know if this can be achieved via a deep link, a custom protocol (web+), or any other mechanism available on these platforms. Has anyone successfully implemented this feature or found a workaround to programmatically open an installed PWA on iOS/iPadOS? Thank you very much for your feedback and suggestions!

Hi, I am trying to test the new iPadOS 14 feature: sidebar. However I cannot find any good implementation example code. I want to make the navigation in sidebar, which will for example control the ShowDetail View, and from the ShowDetail View I can dig deeper in EditDetail View. When I try this code: struct iPadSidebarView: View { var body: some View { NavigationView { Sidebar() ShowDetail(whichRow: some starting text) EditDetail() } } } struct Sidebar: View { var body: some View { NavigationView { List(1..<10) { i in NavigationLink ( destination: ShowDetail(whichRow: Row (i)), label: { t Text(Row (i)) }) } .listStyle(SidebarListStyle()) } } } struct ShowDetail: View { var whichRow: String var body: some View { Text (whichRow) } } struct EditDetail: View { var body: some View { Text (only for start) } } the sidebar is living its own life, showing me ShowDetail View in itself, but ShowDetail View remains unchanged all the time with starting text. Is there a code example of smoothly working sidebar

How do I switch a thread in my app to use ARM’s big endian mode? The thread code is complied in with the app using Xcode; however other ways of compiling/linking such as libraries, support threads or even cooperative apps might work. Open to ideas. I need to get the iPad processor into big endian mode. Please feel free to ask for any additional information. Best, BR.

I am trying to run a program that queries a device connected to the USB-C connection on my iPad Air (IpadOS 17). Some IOKit calls work and some fail, with the error message Sandbox: iOSNXLauncher(5338) deny(1) iokit-get-properties iokit-class:IOUSBHostDevice property:sessionID or something similar. Which entitlement should I use to be able to execute the IOKit calls needed to see, for example, the Device ID and the Vendor ID? I would like to use the IOKit calls to communicate withUSB devices. If IOKit doesn't allow USB device communication in iOS, does DriverKit have all of the capabilities to query USB attached devices and pass data back and forth? I am trying to port a program from MacOS to iOS. The MacOS software uses libUSB to interface to USB devices. I am trying to use a version compiled for iOS but Sandbox is stopping me (even when Xcode has the Sandbox App option set to NO.). Am I missing entitlements or will this approach not work? Gene

Greetings, I'm an audio developer looking to create a custom audio driver dsp effect (Similar to a Windows Audio Processing Object [APO]) for the IpadOS. In essence, I would be looking to create a toggle-able real-time playback effect for a specific USB audio device that could connect to the Ipad, and work in a similar manner to the new spatial audio feature for the air pods (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211775 ie turn on/off effect from menu and potentially from the control strip). The output would be a multichannel signal for the audio hardware device. I've not previously done any audio development on apple, aside from C/C++ applications using APIs such as PortAudio for MacOS. I would appreciate if the community could give some pointers on where I would begin reading, and to possibly get a general idea of the steps/development effort something like this would take. I've come across the following resources/examples for the CoreAudio framework: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documen

Hi, I was wondering if the submission can be an Xcode project that runs on iPadOS 16? I have been working on an Xcode project this entire time on Xcode 14 and do not have a playground file. Or is there a way to convert or change my project to a playground? Thanks! Jacob

Is the App limit for RAM in iPadOS 15 still 5GB or has it been increased?

Not sure if this is due to early beta release, but I have an app that was build for iOS 13 in Xcode 10.5 and has a widget. After upgrading my iPad Pro 13 3rd Gen to Beta iPadOS 14, only a few older app widgets show up. Carrot Weather and DarkSky. All other widgets from the previous version of iOS no longer show up in the today view. Is this by design or just an oversight for an early beta? Or do we need to add provisions to our existing app to support iOS/iPadOS 14 widgets to have them show up properly. I thought older widgets were supposed to be upwardly compatible?

Hi all,Whenever I attach my Apple Smart Keyboard to my 12.9 iPad Pro (3rd gen) the UI resprings (briefly goes black with spinner) and locks the device. The same happens when I swipe up to open the dock with the keyboard attached.This started happening since Beta 2 of iPadOS (v13). It was find in Beta 1.Has anybody encountered this before? If so, did you find a workaround (apart from using another keyboard) or have any suggestions as to what I can try? A trick to open the on-screen keyboard before attaching the ASK seemed to work briefly, but no longer. Lucien.

I have this in my swift file: CommandGroup(replacing: .textFormatting) { Toggle(Bold Text, systemImage: bold, isOn: boldBinding) .keyboardShortcut(B) Button(Align Left, systemImage: text.alignleft) { alignmentBinding.wrappedValue = 1 } .keyboardShortcut([) Button(Align Center, systemImage: text.aligncenter) { alignmentBinding.wrappedValue = 0 } .keyboardShortcut() Button(Align Right, systemImage: text.alignright) { alignmentBinding.wrappedValue = 2 } .keyboardShortcut(]) } Nothing appeared in iPadOS menu (but does appeared on Mac). Change textFormatting to textEditing does work, but appeared in a very long menu
