iOS Health Application Bluetooth Data Transfer - Background Processing Issue
Hello, Our application is a health application that functions alongside a device transferring data via Bluetooth. There is continuous data transfer happening from this device. However, when operated on an iOS device, the application gets cut off in the background after a certain duration, negatively impacting the user experience. As is known, the background services of an application being terminated after a certain period is generally associated with how iOS manages system resources. In our case as well, we came across this issue before we implemented a formatted background task. Therefore, to address this situation, we used a formatted background task in our application, but the problem still persists. Unable to resolve the issue, we decided to analyze how other Bluetooth devices work on iOS devices. For example, when an electronic watch is connected, the Bluetooth connection never gets cut off. However, why can't we achieve the same performance with our device? I would be extremely grateful if you could shed technical insight on this matter and share your experiences. Furthermore, if you have any recommendations on how to handle such situations, I would love to hear all about them. Thanks in advance for your help.

Cannot get rid of current postgres installation
Ths installer created the .plist entry in /Library/LaunchDaemons/postgresql-15 and uninstaller left that intact. Because of this I cannot reinstall new version of postgres application as I alway get the message that an instance of this app is alredy running - no wonder, since the launchd daemon starts this at each reboot. How can I delete / remove that "postgresql-15.plist" file?

Why would my Mac app be preemptively terminated?
I have a persistent "crash" with at least one of my apps, which appears to be a case of the app either quitting or being force-quit without generating a crash log. The app doesn't subscribe to any sudden termination compatibility or similar. I have a good friend who is a developer who is able to reproduce the issue within minutes, so I've captured a trove of information from him including a complete sysdiagnose. Unfortunately nothing is jumping out at me, and the only things that show up that seem like they might be related are keys like ApplicationWouldBeTerminatedByTAL and NSCanQuitQuietlyAndSafelyKey. I am kind of grasping at straws and would welcome any inspiration anybody can share. What is TAL and is it something the system could be imposing on my app? If there are circumstances where macOS will preemptively terminate a running app, what are they, and how can I figure out which one is causing the quits in these situatoins? I'd love to be able to reproduce the behavior on my own Mac. If it's something I can prevent, great, if it's not, it would be good to know how to distinguish it from a regular crash for reporting purposes. Thanks for any help!

Definition of 'user-generated content apps'?
I once found a section of 'User-Generated Contents' in the Appstore guideline of apple. (https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#user-generated-content) In the case of a specific application related to a cloud service, like Google drive, how that 'User-Generated Contents' can be defined? I mean, if a Google drive app user uploads a music file to google drive via the iOS application of google drive, will that music file be considered as 'User-Generated Contents' according to apple's Appstore guideline? Or it doesn't matter with it?

[iOS App Development] I want to implement the "Quick Start" function in my game app, so that I can transfer data and account information [Unity 2020.3.33f1]
(Using Deepl Translate) My name is p_dev and I am a private developer of game apps for iOS. (I use Unity 2020.3.33f1 as my development tool.) I have two questions about "How to support "quick start" (transfer function) when developing iOS apps". I have a question about the "Quick Start" feature of iOS application develop. I am planning to implement the "Quick Start" feature of iOS so that data and account information can be "transferred" via "Quick Start". I have researched existing apps and documentation on the web in relation to this. However, I could not figure out how to implement the transfer function. (As a result of our research, we found the following two types of existing apps. Those that can be transferred with the data and account information remaining in the "quick start" mode. Those that can not be transferred with the data and account information remaining in the "Quick Start" function.) (Also, I could not find any official documentation.) Here are my questions (1) How do I develop and implement an app that supports the "quick start" transfer function? (How do I develop and implement data that can be transferred with "Quick Start"?) (What is the difference between apps that can and cannot use "quick start"...?) (2) Is there any documentation that provides information on how to implement a "quick start" function? (I would appreciate it if you can provide me with either official or unofficial documentation). If you know anything about this, I would appreciate your help. Thank you for reading.

Health App: Continuously Sending Data in Background through Personal HotSpot
Hello, We have made an iOS app that sends data from our patch device to the iPhone continuously in the background for our intended purpose(collecting health data) , The patch uses the person hotspot to connect to the iPhone to send the data. According to Guideline 2.5.4: "Multitasking apps may only use background services for their intended purposes: VoIP, audio playback, location, task completion, local notifications, etc. If your app uses location background mode, include a reminder that doing so may dramatically decrease battery life." Which background mode we need to use for running the app in background and can we set the repeated local notifications to inform the user that he need to connect to device ?

macOS app store app - LoginItem not launching after login
My app has a helper application to register with launched using- SMLoginItemSetEnabled When both the main app and helper app are signed with dev cert, the helper app is launched/called as soon as you login, but a prod singed apps do not work as expected. In this case, the helper app is not auto launchd upon login. This behavior is not seen in macOS 11.0/11.1. Here the prod signed helper app is launched as expected upon login. Upon further investigation, I found the following log entries in system.log file Feb 11 00:38:33 MacBook-Pro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.company.HelperApp[2121]): LaunchServices returned a bundle URL that does not match with the LoginItem's known association. Feb 11 00:38:33 MacBook-Pro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.company.HelperApp[2121]): Service exited with abnormal code: 78 Feb 11 00:38:33 MacBook-Pro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.company.HelperApp): Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds. What does the log mean and how can I get the prod signed builds to work as expected?
