com.apple.devicecheck.error - 3: Error Domain=com.apple.devicecheck.error Code=3 "(null)"
Hi, In our app we are using DeviceCheck (App Attest) in a production environment iOS. The service works correctly for most users, but a user reported failure in a flow that use device check service. This failure is not intermittently, it is constant. We are unable to reproduce this failure and we are believing that this failure occurred by new version ios 26.3 because for others users using early versions the service is normally. Environment iOS 26.3 Real device App Attest capability enabled Correct App ID, Team ID and App Attest entitlement Production environment Characteristics: appears constantly affects only unique user -Don't resolves after time or reinstall not reproducible on our test devices NSError contains no additional diagnostic info (Error Domain=com.apple.devicecheck.error Code=3 "(null)") We saw about this error code 3 in this post 812308, but it's not our case because the ios version in this case is not iOS 17.0 or earlier. Please, help us any guidance for solution. Thank you

Clarification on attestKey API in Platform SSO
Hi, We are implementing Platform SSO and using attestKey during registration via ASAuthorizationProviderExtensionLoginManager. Could you clarify whether the attestKey flow involves sending attestation data to an Apple server for verification (similar to App Attest in the DeviceCheck framework), or if the attestation certificate chain is generated and signed entirely on-device without any Apple server interaction? The App Attest flow is clearly documented as using Apple’s attestation service, but the Platform SSO process is less clearly described. Thank you.

DeviceCheck query_two_bits returns last_update_time in the future — what could cause this?
Hi everyone, I'm integrating Apple's DeviceCheck API into my app and have run into a strange issue that I can't find documented anywhere. The Problem When I call Apple's DeviceCheck query endpoint (POST https://api.devicecheck.apple.com/v1/query_two_bits), the response occasionally returns a last_update_time value that is in the future — ahead of the current server time. Example response: { "bit0": true, "bit1": false, "last_update_time": "2026-05" // future month, not yet reached } What I've Checked My server's system clock is correctly synced via NTP The JWT token I generate uses the current timestamp for the iat field This doesn't happen on every device — only on some specific devices The issue is reproducible on the same device across multiple calls Questions Is last_update_time sourced from the device's local clock at the time update_two_bits was called? Or is it stamped server-side by Apple? Could a device with an incorrectly set system clock (set to the future) cause Apple's servers to record a future last_update_time? Is there a recommended way to validate or sanitize last_update_time on the server side to handle this edge case? Has anyone else encountered this behavior? Any known workarounds? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

DCDevice last_update_time issue
We are currently experiencing an unexpected issue with the DeviceCheck query_two_bits endpoint. According to the official documentation (Accessing and Modifying Per-Device Data), the last_update_time field should represent the month and year when the bits were last modified. The Issue: For several specific device tokens, our server is receiving a last_update_time value that is set in the future. Current Date: April 2026 Returned last_update_time: 2026-12 (December 2026) Here is a response: { "body": "{\"bit0\":false,\"bit1\":true,\"last_update_time\":\"2026-12\"}", "headers": { "Server": ["Apple"], "Date": ["Thu, 02 Apr 2026 06:05:23 GMT"], "Content-Type": ["application/json; charset=UTF-8"], "Transfer-Encoding": ["chunked"], "Connection": ["keep-alive"], "X-Apple-Request-UUID": ["53e16c38-d9f7-4d58-a354-ce07a4eaa35b"], "X-Responding-Instance": ["af-bit-store-56b5b6b478-k8hnh"], "Strict-Transport-Security": ["max-age=31536000; includeSubdomains"], "X-Frame-Options": ["SAMEORIGIN"], "X-Content-Type-Options": ["nosniff"], "X-XSS-Protection": ["1; mode=block"] }, "statusCode": "OK", "statusCodeValue": 200 } Technical Details: Endpoint: https://api.development.devicecheck.apple.com/v1/query_two_bits (also occurring in Production) Response Body Example: JSON { "bit0": true, "bit1": false, "last_update_time": "2026-12" } Observations: This occurs even when our server has not sent an update_two_bits request for that specific device in the current month. Questions: Is there a known issue with the timestamp synchronization or regional database propagation for DeviceCheck? Does the last_update_time field ever represent an expiration date or any value other than the "last modified" month? Best regards,

Apple Business Store testing?
We are moving to Apple Business Store for our b2b customers. On the "residential" apple store side there is testflight. What process would one test an app we provide to a b2b customer when using apple business store publishing? (I don't see any sort of test flight for apple business)

Where to see logs from my application
Hi folks, in my application I write some logs over debugPrint or directly over print. The application is already distributed and some part of functionality failed with application traceback. I would like to ask user for providing logs from the App. Is it possible to get those logs? Thanks Petr
