I have an Apple Watch series 2 which is on OS 6.2 and an iPhone on iOS 15.3.1 The Apple Watch doesnt appear to be transferring any data to Apple Health. The phone data is showing and the watch is showing as paired within the My Watch Tab on the Watch App . is this just due to not being compatible?

Hello there, I applied for a fall detection entitlement request a few days back but didn't receive any update from Apple yet. If anyone can tell me the duration of time taken by Apple to give an update regarding this request, please reply to this question. Thanks

We've added a watch app extension in the developed iOS application source code. When we're selecting and running the watch application target, We're getting this application installation error with an alert: Could not attach to pid : “11996” attach failed ((os/kern) invalid argument) This alert is coming only on M1 chip-based Mac systems. But the same code is running well on Intel-based Mac systems. Any help from anyone is highly appreciable. Thank you.

Hi Folks, I am building a SwiftUI based WatchOS app primarily focused on updating a complication using data from a REST API call. I am trying to reproduce the approach to updating complications in the background as described in "Keeping your complications up to date". The trouble I have is that the func handle(_ backgroundTasks: Set<WKRefreshBackgroundTask>) method on the ExtensionDelegate is never called for the WKURLSessionRefreshBackgroundTask task type. The handle method is invoked for other task types such as WKSnapshotRefreshBackgroundTask. After some refactoring, I have deviated from the approach in the video and I now reshedule the background task in the func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didCompleteWithError error: Error?) method of the URLSessionDownloadDelegate. This works fine, and the tasks are being resheduled in the background, but my concern is that there maybe a WKURLSessionRefreshBackgroundTask object lurking in the background for which I haven't called setTaskCompletedWithSnapshot. My session is configured as follows: private lazy var backgroundURLSession: URLSession = { let appBundleName = Bundle.main.bundleURL.lastPathComponent.lowercased().replacingOccurrences(of: " ", with: ".") let sessionIdentifier = "com.gjam.liffeywatch.\(appBundleName)" let config = URLSessionConfiguration .background(withIdentifier: sessionIdentifier) config.isDiscretionary = false config.sessionSendsLaunchEvents = true config.requestCachePolicy = .reloadIgnoringLocalCacheData config.urlCache = nil return URLSession (configuration: config, delegate: self , delegateQueue: nil ) }() and the scheduling code is a follows: func schedule(_ first: Bool) { print("Scheduling background URL session") let bgTask = backgroundURLSession.downloadTask(with: LiffyDataProvider.url) #if DEBUG bgTask.earliestBeginDate = Date().addingTimeInterval(first ? 10 : 60 * 2) #else bgTask.earliestBeginDate = Date().addingTimeInterval(first ? 30 : 60 * 60 * 2) #endif bgTask.countOfBytesClientExpectsToSend = 200 bgTask.countOfBytesClientExpectsToReceive = 1024 bgTask.resume() print("Task started") backgroundTask = bgTask } Does anyone have any idea's why the handle method is not invoked with WKURLSessionRefreshBackgroundTask tasks? Cheers, Gareth.

Is it possible to use PNGs for Watch Series 7 complication sizes? In the human interface guidelines here https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/watchos/overview/complications/ it specifies a size for the new 41mm and 45mm devices. However, in the latest Xcode (13.2.1) I can't see any way to bring up a slot for you to drop in images at these sizes; all you can get is a slot for a vector image and some of the older device sizes. Also, it seems if you don't provide a vector your existing png complication's icons appear slightly cropped when used on a 45mm device. Is the only way to support Watch Series 7 complications to use a vector or is there some hidden way or tick box somewhere to get pngs to work?

I get a notification on my phone approximately 4 times a day asking me to update my Apple Watch. I don’t have an Apple Watch and can’t find any connected my account in my settings profile. Any ideas to stop this as it’s incredibly frustrating!!

With the WatchOS 8 upgrade, it appears WKExtension.shared().rootInterfaceController is returning nil in certain situations. One situation I've identified is when there's a multi-page watch app. But, if I remove the segue, the WKExtension.shared().rootInterfaceController has a value. So, it seems that using paged navigation can cause the rootInterfaceController to be nil. Even if the dietaryDetailsController is made the Main Entry Point, rootInterfaceController has a value. So, it only seems to be a problem when it's the first page. Long term, SwiftUI can be implemented, but, a short term fix is necessary since the rootInterfaceController is necessary to refresh complication data. With a push segue, the rootInterfaceController does have a value. Anyone else experiencing this? Am I missing something in configuring the first page of multi-page navigation?

Anyone dealt before with Apple Watch complications accessibility? I'm using CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerGaugeText to display custom data but VoiceOver adds degrees (º) after saying the value. I've tried with accessibilityLabel on CLKTextProvider but doesn't fix it. Any idea? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I want to create my own custom watchface. And want to add that watchface to iPhone device watch app. Is it possible using Xcode and swift ? If not, please provide us a way to create custom watch face file. And how can I add date, time and animation on that watch face. Please guide me.

Hello everyone! Who knows? Who tried it? In the technical documentation for the new mac 2021 on m1, it is written that only 1 additional monitor can be connected. How about two? I have 2 additional monitors working perfectly on mac 2017 in addition to the main one. I'm used to working in xcode on 3 monitors. What should I do? Is it possible to connect 2 additional ones?

I have an iPhone with Watch Project, I was getting good results on my Complications but lately they don't want to update… When I build and run on my iPhone the new Watch build gets transferred to the paired watch and is running there fine. Almost: it refuses to update the Complications. After Watch restart I only get ----- My server correctly tells me that I have two active complications on the current watchFace and I am calling server.reloadTimeline(for:) on both of them but the getCurrentTimelineEntry function never gets executed by the server. Neither does the getLocalizableSampleTemplate When I remove the App from the Watch, restart the Watch and then put the App back on the Watch using the iPhone's Watch App -- then it works, but only about 3 minutes after starting the Watch App on the Watch. During these 3 minutes my app's complications are only --. I can't ship it like this… My hunch is that somewhere the complication controller crashes, but it doesn't take my app down with it and thus my complications don't work any more. All other apps' complications do update alright though. Now my question is: is that a bug in Xcode, in WatchOS, or in my code? Will this happen when I first deploy my app on the App Store or will it be an issue with updates via App Store? Is this only relevant for my "local" build? Any hints where to hunt this bug?

Hi evetyone! I from to Vietnam. I have an Apple Watch SE. My watch was working fine before but a week now the sharing feature works, the competition with everyone on Apple Watch has not worked (playing with everyone wins or loses still does not receive a badge) completed the challenge, can't see the scores everyone has competed,...), but the three fitness circles on my watch are still working properly. I have disconnected the watch from my iPhone and then reconnecting it still does not fix the error, I also sent feedback on August 16, but as of today August 22 I still have not received a response from Apple, I do not know if my feedback reaches Apple? I really hope Apple reads this and responds to me. Thanks very much!

My outlook is not working anymore, when opening it is stuck and the ball only rotating. Only by forced quit I can stop it. It is reported since a couple of days now (Feedback assistant) and reported to MS but no change at all. The problem is that I have important files stored under outlook on my computer and cannot access them. Any help????

Hi Team, I used below code to get active window details. but unable to find title of it. Can you please help me on it. C# based code in Mac var foreground_app = NSWorkspace.SharedWorkspace.FrontmostApplication; foreground_app contains active application details. but i am not able to identify active window details . guide me which property or function i need to use to get active window title details EX: i opened Numbers, below condition will trigger if(foreground_app.LocalizedName.ToLower().Contains("numbers")) { /// }

I was very happy when I saw this: "You can embed a symbol inside a run of text by using string interpolation." Text("Thalia… \(Image(systemName: "chevron.forward"))") Unfortunately this is a feature of SwiftUI and not generally available string interpolation. In places where a string is expected like an Apple Watch Compilcation Text Provider CLKSimpleTextProvider(text: "\(Image(systemName: "heart"))") this doesn't return an inline Image but "Image(provider: SwiftUI.ImageProviderBox<SwiftUI.Image.(unknown context at $18487da20).NamedImageProvider>)" So… Is there a way to include an SF Symbol in a regular string to wiggle it into a CLKSimpleTextProvider?

Anyone else having an issue with iOS 14 calendar widget? When I select the widget, instead of going to today’s date/year, it goes to the correct day, but wrong year. It goes to 2019. Very annoying!!

I’m trying to get background URL sessions working to keep my complications up to date. The docs and session videos from this year state that I should get ~4 background network updates per hour if I have my complication active, but it is taking up to 1.5 hours to get just one background URL session to return on watchOS 7 beta 4. I’m using the sample code from this year’s WWDC session on keeping complications up to date. I am scheduling the URL session to begin after 15 minutes. I have a complication active on the watch. The watch has plenty of battery and is connected to wifi. I’m completing all URL background refresh tasks within 15 secs. Important Note* I do get a URLSessionRefreshBackgroundTask around the time of the earliest begin date, but it just calls willBeginDelayedRequest then urlSessionDidFinishEvents - the download itself doesn’t happen for another hour. (I call setTaskCompleted once urlSessionDidFinishEvents is called, as the session video recommends.) Is anyone else experiencing long delays between when a scheduled download is supposed to begin and when the app is actually woken up? I've filed this as FB8386427 in case any engineers happen to see this.
