Implementing App Clips with .NET MAUI
We have an iOS App built in .NET MAUI (Multi-platform App UI). This is a web view App. We wish to integrate APP Clips into this App. But we are unable to do it, due to less available resources online on such implementation. We do not wish to share code between .NET MAUI App and App clips. We understand it is not possible to add APP Clips without a parent swift/Xcode app. As an alternative solution we were thinking to Create a new APP in APP Store Connect using XCode/swift and integrate app clips to it. This parent app when downloaded by users will only redirect users to our MAIN .NET MAUI app to app store connect. We need to know if such apps will be approved by APPSTORE Connect? Please guide us on this. Also please do let us know if you have any other solution to integrate App clips to a .NET MAUI App

App Clip not launching from QR code
I really need help guys:/ All works when testing, but not on production:/ Main app and its app clip is released. Here is the app: https://apps.apple.com/pl/app/ar-city-your-ar-experience/id6745802339 Here is the associated apple-app-site-association: https://arcity.ai/.well-known/apple-app-site-association and its content: HTTP/2 200 accept-ranges: bytes access-control-allow-origin: * age: 0 cache-control: public,max-age=86400 cache-status: "Netlify Edge"; fwd=miss content-type: application/json date: Wed, 28 May 2025 14:35:03 GMT etag: "59e807a4581e56f56ed0029251edda98-ssl" server: Netlify strict-transport-security: max-age=31536000 x-content-type-options: nosniff x-nf-request-id: 01JWBN2WHPEK443GB2VTZEWDGW content-length: 677 { "applinks": { "details": [ { "appIDs": ["TANE496532.com.arcity.app"], "components": [ { "#": "no_universal_links", "exclude": true, "comment": "Exclude links with this fragment." }, { "/": "/ar/*", "comment": "Matches any path under /ar/ for AR experiences." }, { "/": "/", "comment": "Match root path with optional query parameters." } ] } ] }, "webcredentials": { "apps": ["TANE496532.com.arcity.app"] }, "appclips": { "apps": ["TANE496532.com.arcity.app.clip"] } }% Here are metadata: Domain status: I added (obviously) default app clip experience, but also advanced app clip (which should be not needed as on iOS >16.4 default one should supports QR code scanning): When I check on my device under Settings -> Developer -> APP CLIPS TESTING -> check for "https://arcity.ai" I can see (that worries me:/): Launching app clip from smart banners works (you can check that by opening arcity.ai on your device), but scanning QR codes (with system camera) don't:/ It just opens Safari. Any thought appreciated.

Can I migrate an App Clip by changing its App Group to match a different main app?
Hi, I’m trying to migrate an App Clip from one main app (App A) to another (App B). These two apps are under the same Apple Developer Account (Team ID), and each has its own App Group. I’m wondering: 1. If I change the App Group configured in the App Clip’s entitlements, will this effectively allow the App Clip to be treated as part of App B? 2. Will this change allow me to reuse the existing App Clip Experiences (e.g., NFC/QR code invocation URLs) that were originally associated with App A? 3. Is such a change sufficient for Apple to treat the App Clip as migrated, or are there additional steps (e.g., changing the Bundle ID, resubmitting the App Clip Experience, etc.) required to complete the migration? I want to confirm whether switching the App Group and submitting a new App Clip with the new app is a valid and seamless way to perform the migration. I understand App Groups are typically used for data sharing, not experience binding — but I want to clarify if switching App Groups affects App Clip–main app association from Apple’s perspective. Thanks in advance!

Associating App Clips to Apple Map Location
Question: Does anyone have experience or documentation on how to get an App Clip to show on Apple Maps for a location? What I've tried: I have tried to associate my App Clip with an Apple Maps location. We are working with a physical restaurant that has an Apple Maps location, our full app is listed there but not the App Clip. I've gone through the steps of setting up the Advanced App Clip Experience and giving it the location we want it associated with, and have gone through Apple Business Connect and done all the setup there to get the full app to show with the location, but the app clip still does not show. I've contacted Apple Support and they gave me the criteria of "The App Clip is hosted within the app" and "The app is associated to the same physical location". When asking for clarification with the first criteria they said they could help and closed the chat.

403 Forbidden when editting advanced App Clip experiences in App Store Connect
For a few days now, we are getting an error page saying "403 Forbidden" when clicking the "Edit Advanced Experience" button for our App in App Store Connect. Also, the cache status for our domains says "Cache status updated on Feb 29, 2024 at 10:49 AM." which is almost a week ago. Are we the only app having this issue, or is it more widespread?

Confused about the appclip.apple.com domain
Question: I'm aware of the AASA file hosting procedure to make app clips work and link them to your website, but IIRC you can trigger app clips via the simple appclip.apple.com URL too, right? As a result no need to host the AASA file. Like my app store connect gave me the URL https://appclip.apple.com/id?p=myname.myappsname.Clip but when I click it it says "This app clip is not currently available in your country or region". However I'm also getting Bad JSON content on the View Status under the domain. I'm so confused.

Branding app clips for different businesses
Hello, I am new to app clips and working on app clips that will be used by different customers of ours and they would want to create their own app clip card with different images, title, subtitle and different parameters in the URL. I went through different WWDC videos related to app clips and also through the app clips documentation and all of them says that a different configuration for each customer needs to be made in App Store Connect through Advanced Experiences with URL's specific to each customer/business. If I am understanding it right, then the customers will have to share their images, title and subtitle with us to configure it in app store connect. That will be an extra overhead of handling extra number of requests for each customers. Just checking if there is any other way where the customers/business can create/configure for their own app clip card?

App Clip Not Launching – Correct Bundle ID and AASA, Still Not Working
Hi everyone, I’m trying to launch an App Clip for my app, and I’ve been stuck trying to debug why the App Clip won’t launch in production, despite everything seemingly being set up correctly. My setup: Main app bundle ID: com.release.cosa App Clip bundle ID in Xcode: com.release.cosa.appclip In App Store Connect, the App Clip is listed as: com.release.cosa.appclip My AASA file (served with correct headers from my domain): { "appclips": { "apps": ["com.release.cosa.appclip"] } } App Clip target and entitlements are properly set in Xcode What works: App Clip launches via local testing in Xcode (Simulator and physical device) App Clip works when triggered manually from Safari (while debugging) What doesn’t work: NFC tag or Universal Link from the real world does not trigger the App Clip On device, nothing happens – not even a fallback to Safari No errors shown to user
