Submitting iOS17 App
I wrote a custom app for an internal group where I control the devices. Internally purchased and managed via MDM. It uses iOS17 features and requires iOS17. The App Review process requires a 5.5" screen shot, but Apple doesn't have a 5.5" screen device that supports iOS17. So I submitted a blank 5.5" screenshot. My app submission keeps getting rejected (for over a week now). The reviewer just keeps ignoring my response. I've called the help phone number and was promised a call back from the reviewer. Nothing so far. I submitted an appeal and they closed it right away because I had submitted it again. How can I escalate this? I need to get this app out immediately.

Cannot Sell App in Apple Store connect distribution
I am distributing my project as Apple Business Manager, but App Availability gives a Cannot Sell warning in my distribution country and I cannot show my application. My country is Türkiye. Why am I having such a distribution problem? Please I would like detailed information on this subject. Is this a software issue or an issue with my application? My application is currently in 1.0.1 Ready for Sale status and I am trying to distribute my application as Private — Available as a custom app on Apple Business Manager.

Does the App Store accept Apps that uses Cordova and a mobile framework?
HI, can you tell me if the app store accepts iOS (iphone) apps that are built using either the Onsen-ui or JQM framework that then utilises Cordova to be packaged up. The app also uses a few plugins, i.e, check internet connection etc. I have read different posts over the years saying they don't and on another site saying they will accept. I'm just looking for a definitive answer. I should state what I am developing isn't just a clone of a website but a proper user based application. It is just I don't want to wast time developing the idea if it will ultimately be rejected. Thanks.

But its not working InAppWebView( key: webViewKey, initialUrlRequest: URLRequest(url: Uri.parse(widget.url)), initialOptions: options, pullToRefreshController: pullToRefreshController, onWebViewCreated: (controller) { webViewController = controller; }, onLoadStart: (controller, url) { logger.d("printing webview controller type: " + controller.runtimeType.toString()); setState(() { this.url = url.toString(); urlController.text = this.url; isLoading = false; }); }, androidOnPermissionRequest: (controller, origin, resources) async { return PermissionRequestResponse( resources: resources, action: PermissionRequestResponseAction.GRANT); }, shouldOverrideUrlLoading: (controller, navigationAction) async { var uri = navigationAction.request.url!; if (![ "http", "https", "file", "chrome", "data", "javascript", "about" ].contains(uri.scheme)) { if (await canLaunch(url)) { // Launch the App await launch( url, ); // and cancel the request return NavigationActionPolicy.CANCEL; } } return NavigationActionPolicy.ALLOW; }, onLoadStop: (controller, url) async { pullToRefreshController?.endRefreshing(); setState(() { this.url = url.toString(); urlController.text = this.url; }); }, onLoadError: (controller, url, code, message) { pullToRefreshController?.endRefreshing(); }, onProgressChanged: (controller, progress) { if (progress == 100) { pullToRefreshController?.endRefreshing(); } setState(() { this.progress = progress / 100; urlController.text = this.url; }); }, onUpdateVisitedHistory: (controller, url, androidIsReload) { setState(() { this.url = url.toString(); urlController.text = this.url; }); }, onConsoleMessage: (controller, consoleMessage) { print(consoleMessage); }, ), How to should I pass the login session from swift code to inappwebview in flutter? Please help me with this. I really appreciate it. Its working fine with android devices. The problem is from iOS devices.

If user downloads a custom app to their own device using redemption code, is there a way to force remove it from the App Store purchased list?
We plan to get some redemption codes from ABM to our partners to download custom apps, and they will use their own devices. But there is a problem, if they are not involved in this business anymore. If user downloads a custom app to their own device using redemption code, is there a way to force remove it from the App Store purchased list? Is there a way to force remove it from the App Store purchased list? Or can only add permission verification to the application?

Apple installer command is returning error when run from a binary with Full Disk Access on Sonoma
I have a go binary that runs from /usr/local/bin. This application has the ability to update itself by downloading the latest .pkg from our company and running it with the installer command. Our application has also been granted Full Disk Access. The command that is run by our application looks like this: installer -pkg /tmp/ourInstaller.pkg -target /. This command works from a terminal (when run with sudo and when the terminal has Full Disk Access). It also has been working on all MacOS version above 10.15. With MacOS Sonoma on the M platform (not on an Intel device), this command has started to give the following error: installer: Package name is Agent Installer\ninstaller: Upgrading at base path /\ninstaller: The upgrade failed. (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. An unexpected error occurred while moving files to the final destination.)\n. This is an error we see when our application is not granted Full Disk Access, but as mentioned, our application has been granted Full Disk Access. Also, the installation appears to complete successfully, meaning the files are moved to the correct place, but the installation still errors. It seems to be erroring while copying the new binary to /usr/local/bin. In fact, it cannot copy any file to /usr/local/bin without erroring, even a simple text file. This leads me to believe that it may be erroring on trying to rollback the previous install, but since the binary has Full Disk Access, it is failing to remove the old binary (rightfully so) and so the installer errors. I just want to reiterate that this has always worked, and only with Sonoma on M architecture machines (M1 and M2) has this started erroring.

Collaboration on new app.
I’ve just published an app which I only intended to put it into TestFlight as there are two issues i had hoped to resolve before launching in the App Store: It stops playing if phone is locked. If settings are changed they aren’t stored for the next time app is opened. I’m wondering if anyone here would be interested in collaborating on its development. One idea being to allow people to record their own sounds more relevant to their particular sport. This could be a paid option. I hope this kind of post is allowed. The name of the app is Distraction if you want to check it out to see if it would be of any interest to you.

Requirement & Eligibility for Distributing Custom Apps to Organizations
Hello! We already have a public app on the AppStore. And we are trying to create another app to distribute to organizations privately. Now, we did some digging and have some queries about the whole process which are as follows: What type of account do we need as the developer team, meaning which programs we need to enroll to and what type of account does our customer organization need to use the app, privately? We do not have a hundred or more employees which is an eligibility criterion for enrollment in the Enterprise Program. How can we proceed to distribute apps to organizations privately with out situation? Do the customer organizations need Enterprise account for each app we publish? Thanks!

Adding Custom App to iPhone
Hello, I'm not new to programming, but am new to developing for Apple products. I'm planning on developing an app for my iPhone exclusively for my use. My question is can I add my custom app to my phone without having to go through the App Store? If I can avoid the App Store, how do I go about getting the app onto my phone? I do have Xcode and have learned Swift, so I just need to understand how to get the app onto my phone. Thank you for your help!

Help - Cannot convert value of type 'String' to expected argument type 'OpenAISwift.Config'
Newbie coder here, using most recent Xcode and iOS 17 to build an app using Adam Rushy openaiswift tutorial. The app is entirely built and everything functions except this: Cannot convert value of type 'String' to expected argument type 'OpenAISwift.Config' So I cannot build the project, it refers to this line of code: func setup () { client = OpenAISwift(config: "removed api key for public view)") } func send(text: String, in the tutorial it said use authToken which Xcode said was wrong and must be config, so I changed it but it still doesn't work. Any help appreciated

App embedded in Java app
Hi folks I am struggling with following scenario: We have an app implemented in Java (Parent app). From this parent app I would like to call .app that is implemented in Swift (Child app). We are trying to build package that can be distributed in Appstore using Install4j, partially with success. The app can be validated and distributed in TestFlight, however when we are trying to open child app, nothing happens. The app does not open. I am not sure if we do correct signing BECAUSE, when we initially distributed the app outside AppStore, Child App was signed with Developer ID Application and it did work correctly. How should we sign all apps? Is there any other way that we can pack this scenario without using Install4j?

App getting updated without pushing changes to app store.
Hello, I am pushing changes to ad-hoc application via OutSystems. From here I usually have to change distribution settings to fit App store with certificates etc. I have different provisioning profile, app identifier etc on OutSystems, but when I push changes it now also gets updated on App Store, without me pushing any changes there since August. Even the testflight version get the newest changes. How is this possible? What could possibly be going on? Are there any changes in how you distribute apps to app store? We use apple business manager to distribute newest version from app store, so this is critical as we don't want it to push the same changes we push to Ad-Hoc prod application through outsystems distribution.

Distribution Provisioning Profile isn't showing up in Xcode
I'm a newbie to deploying flutter apps to the iOS app store, so bare with me. Below is a screenshot of Xcode, and it says that it can't find any "iOS Development provisioning profiles." I don't understand why I need one. The strange thing is that I created a Distribution Profile, so I don't know why that's not showing up here. When I run the build command from the flutter CLI this is what I get: I find this all very confusing and frustrating. If anyone could help that would be great. Also if anyone needs more info about my setup just ask. I'm not sure what info is helpful and what isn't.

Fatal Error in ModelData at line 43
Failed to decode landmarksData.json from bundle because it appears to be invalid JSON. Full disclosure - Im extremely new to this and am playing around with the swift tutorials to see what it can do and see if I could build an app. Any advice is appreciated. I added a few locations to the SwiftUI Tutorial for Lanmarks and this is what happened. I have checked that JSON file and all commas are in the correct place everything is correct but im getting this error. Not sure what im doing incorrectly. Can anyone give me assistance on how to fix this. I can only preview favorite button, circle image and map. Everything else appears as Fatal Error in ModelData.

What is the recommended way for Non App Store distribution to Client MDM ?
We currently have a Developer Account registered as an organisation and publish our app to App Store. One of our customers want our App to be part of their MDM, so that they can distribute it to their employees without App Store. Questions: What are the steps to make our App available to Client's MDM solutions like Microsoft Intune ? Will this be achieved by having Apple Developer Program (Account) or any other steps are involved ? Will the solution be applicable to multiple Clients using their own different MDM solutions ?
