I’ve set up a focus filter, but the perform() method in SetFocusFilterIntent isn't called when the focus mode is toggled on or off on my iPhone since I updated to iOS 18 beta (22A5326f). I can reproduce the issue for my app, but focus filters are also broken for any third-party apps installed on my phone, so I guess it's not specific to how I've implemented my filter intent. This used to work perfectly on iOS 17. I didn't change a single line of code, and it broke completely on the latest iOS 18 beta. I've filed a bug report including a sysdiagnose (FB14715113). To the developers out there, is this something you are also observing in your apps?

if #available(iOS 16.0, *) {       print("donated")       let intent = BasicIntent()       IntentDonationManager.shared.donate(intent: intent)    } Trying to test if donations work with the new App Intents framework. Donating the shortcut once a user taps a button. The shortcut is not appearing on the lock screen. Everything else is working as expected. The Shortcut is appearing in the Shortcuts App and is working via Siri. In developer settings I have Display Recent Shortcuts -> On Display Donations on Lock Screen -> On Allow Any domain -> On Allow Unverified sources -> On Running iOS 16.2, iPhone 11.

I’m trying to group my EntityPropertyQuery selection into sections as well as making it searchable. I know that the EntityStringQuery is used to perform the text search via entities(matching string: String). That works well enough and results in this modal: Though, when I’m using a DynamicOptionsProvider to section my EntityPropertyQuery, it doesn’t allow for searching anymore and simply opens the sectioned list in a menu like so: How can I combine both? I’ve seen it in other apps, but can’t figure out why my code doesn’t allow to section the results and make it searchable? Any ideas? My code (simplified) struct MyIntent: AppIntent { @Parameter(title: "Meter"), optionsProvider: MyOptionsProvider()) var meter: MyIntentEntity? // … struct MyOptionsProvider: DynamicOptionsProvider { func results() async throws -> ItemCollection<MyIntentEntity> { // Get All Data let allData = try IntentsDataHandler.shared.getEntities() // Create Arrays for Sections let fooEntities = allData.filter { $0.type == .foo } let barEntities = allData.filter { $0.type == .bar } return ItemCollection(sections: [ ItemSection("Foo", items: fooEntities), ItemSection("Bar", items: barEntities) ]) } } struct MeterIntentQuery: EntityStringQuery { // entities(for identifiers: [UUID]) and suggestedEntities() functions func entities(matching string: String) async throws -> [MyIntentEntity] { // Fetch All Data let allData = try IntentsDataHandler.shared.getEntities() // Filter Data by String let matchingData = allData.filter { data in return data.title.localizedCaseInsensitiveContains(string)) } return matchingData } }

Hey, I was wondering on how to react to the focus mode being turned off inside the FocusFilterIntent. I've successfully managed to call a specific action when the focus is being set, but I now want to deactivate/ react when the focus is being deactivated. How can I achieve something like this?

Hi, I’m trying to get an array of strings from the user using AppIntents, but I’m encountering an issue. The shortcut ends without prompting the user for input or saving the value, though it doesn’t crash. I need to get the user to input multiple tasks in an array, but the current approach isn’t working as expected. Here’s the current method I’m using: // Short code snippet showing the current method private func collectTasks() async throws -> [String] { var collectedTasks: [String] = tasks ?? [] while true { if !collectedTasks.isEmpty { let addMore = try await $input.requestConfirmation("Would you like to add another task?") if !addMore { break } } let newTask = try await $input.requestValue("Please enter a task:") collectedTasks.append(newTask) } return collectedTasks } The Call func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { let finalTasks = try await collectTasks() // Some more Code } Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, i'm trying to request in a AppIntent an array of strings. But I want to give the user the chance to add more than one String. Yet, I do it so: import AppIntent struct AddHomework: AppIntent { // some Parameters @Parameter(title: "Tasks") var tasks: [String]? @Parameter(title: "New Task") //Only for the special request var input: String? private func collectTasks() async throws -> [String] { var collectedTasks: [String] = tasks ?? [] while true { if !collectedTasks.isEmpty { let addMore = try await $input.requestConfirmation(for: "Möchtest du noch eine Aufgabe hinzufügen?") if !addMore { break } } let newTask = try await $input.requestValue("Please enter your task:") collectedTasks.append(newTask) } return collectedTasks } @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { let finalTasks = try await collectTasks() // some more code return .result() } } But this is not working. The Shortcut is ending without requesting anything. But it is not crashing. I would thankfully for some help.

I am implementing a new Intents UI Extension and am noticing that the viewWillDisappear, viewDidDisappear, and deinit methods are not being called on my UIViewController that implements INUIHostedViewControlling, when pressing the "Done" button and dismissing the UIViewController. This causes the memory for the UI Extension to slowly increase each time I re-run the UI Extension until it reaches the 120MB limit and crashes. Any ideas as to what's going on here and how to solve this issue? Worth noting that while the memory does continuously increase on iOS versions before iOS 17, only in 17 and later does the 120MB memory limit kick in and crash the extension.

在执行完 INIntent 或者AppIntent的Shortcuts后，刷新 WidgetKit桌面小组件

I have a swiftui view with Button(intent: ) and using UIHostingViewcontroller to use it in UIKit. The problem is that button not works in uikit but normal button(without intent works)

I’ve implemented an Intent Extension and added support for handling the INSendMessageIntent in the intent handler class. Currently, this intent is automatically visible in the Shortcuts app by default. However, for security reasons (as it involves handling phone numbers), I want to restrict the use of this intent to Siri only and ensure it does not appear in the Shortcuts app. Has anyone encountered this requirement before or knows a way to prevent the intent from appearing in the Shortcuts app, while still keeping it functional via Siri? Looking forward to your suggestions!

After building my app with Xcode 16 beta 6 I'm getting this warning in my AppIntents. Encountered a non-optional type for parameter: computer. Conformance to the following AppIntent protocols requires all parameter types to be optional: AppIntents.WidgetConfigurationIntent, AppIntents.ControlConfigurationIntent The intent looks something like this struct WakeUp: AppIntent, WidgetConfigurationIntent, PredictableIntent { @Parameter(title: "intent.param.computer", requestValueDialog:"intent.param.request_dialog.computer") var computer: ComputerEntity init(computer: ComputerEntity) { self.computer = computer } init() { } public static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Wake Up \(\.$computer)") } static var predictionConfiguration: some IntentPredictionConfiguration { IntentPrediction(parameters: (\.$computer)) { computer in DisplayRepresentation( title: "Wake Up \(computer)" ) } } @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog { } } According to the docs though specifying optional is how we say if the value is required or not. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/adding-parameters-to-an-app-intent#Make-a-parameter-optional-or-required So is this warning accurate? If so, how do I specify that a parameter is required by the intent now?

Hi all, I'm working on a really basic counter app as a way to explore SwiftData and have come across some behavior that I don't understand. I have a very simple App Intent that increments a user-specified counter in my app. The intent doesn't throw any errors and correctly updates the CoreData store but, when I switch back to my app from the Shortcuts app (where I'm testing the app intent), the view hasn't updated. Closing and re-opening the app shows the incremented counter value but I'd like to know if it's possible to have my app's UI update when the CoreData store is updated from outside the app without relaunching the whole app. For some brief context, here's my view and the App Intent: struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query private var counters: [Counter] // ... var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { ForEach(counters) { counter in CounterRowItem(counter: counter) } .onDelete(perform: deleteItems) } // ... } } struct IncrementCounterIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Increment Counter" @Parameter(title: "Name", optionsProvider: CounterOptionsProvider()) var name: String func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<Int> { let provider = try CounterProvider() guard let counter = try provider.fetchCounters().first(where: { $0.name == name }) else { print("Couldn't find counter with name '\(name)'") return .result(value: 0) } counter.count += 1 try provider.context.save() return .result(value: counter.count) } private final class CounterOptionsProvider: DynamicOptionsProvider { func results() async throws -> [String] { try CounterProvider().fetchCounters().map { $0.name } } } }

I've been following along with "App Shortcuts" development but cannot get Siri to run my Intent. The intent on its own works in Shortcuts, along with a couple others that aren't in the AppShortcutsProvder structure. I keep getting the following two errors, but cannot figure out why this is occurring with documentation or other forum posts. No ConnectionContext found for 12909953344 Attempted to fetch App Shortcuts, but couldn't find the AppShortcutsProvider. Here are the relevant snippets of code - (1) The AppIntent definition struct SetBrightnessIntent: AppIntent { static var title = LocalizedStringResource("Set Brightness") static var description = IntentDescription("Set Glass Display Brightness") @Parameter(title: "Level") var level: Int? static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Set Brightness to \(\.$level)%") } func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { guard let level = level else { throw $level.needsValueError("Please provide a brightness value") } if level > 100 || level <= 0 { throw $level.needsValueError("Brightness must be between 1 and 100") } // do stuff with level return .result() } } (2) The AppShortcutsProvider (defined in my iOS app target, there are no other targets) struct MyAppShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider { static var shortcutTileColor: ShortcutTileColor = .grayBlue @AppShortcutsBuilder static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { AppShortcut( intent: SetBrightnessIntent(), phrases: [ "set \(.applicationName) brightness to \(\.$level)", "set \(.applicationName) brightness to \(\.$level) percent" ], shortTitle: LocalizedStringResource("Set Glass Brightness"), systemImageName: "sun.max" ) } } Does anything here look wrong? Is there some magical key that I need to specify in Info.plist to get Siri to recognize the AppShortcutsProvider? On Xcode 16.2 and iOS 18.2 (non-beta).

I have an app intent for interactive widgets. when I touch the toggle, the app intent perform to request location. func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { var mark: LocationService.Placemark? do { mark = try await AsyncLocationServive.shared.requestLocation() print("[Widget] ConnectHandleIntent: \(mark)") } catch { WidgetHandler.shared.error = .locationUnauthorized print("[Widget] ConnectHandleIntent: \(WidgetHandler.shared.error!)") } return .result() } @available(iOSApplicationExtension 13.0, *) @available(iOS 13.0, *) final class AsyncLocationServive: NSObject, CLLocationManagerDelegate { static let shared = AsyncLocationServive() private let manager: CLLocationManager private let locationSubject: PassthroughSubject<Result<LocationService.Placemark, LocationService.Error>, Never> = .init() lazy var geocoder: CLGeocoder = { let geocoder = CLGeocoder() return geocoder }() @available(iOSApplicationExtension 14.0, *) @available(iOS 14.0, *) var isAuthorizedForWidgetUpdates: Bool { manager.isAuthorizedForWidgetUpdates } override init() { manager = CLLocationManager() super.init() manager.delegate = self } func requestLocation() async throws -> LocationService.Placemark { let result: Result<LocationService.Placemark, LocationService.Error> = try await withUnsafeThrowingContinuation { continuation in var cancellable: AnyCancellable? var didReceiveValue = false cancellable = locationSubject.sink( receiveCompletion: { _ in if !didReceiveValue { // subject completed without a value… continuation.resume(throwing: LocationService.Error.emptyLocations) } }, receiveValue: { value in // Make sure we only send a value once! guard !didReceiveValue else { return } didReceiveValue = true // Cancel current sink cancellable?.cancel() // We either got a location or an error continuation.resume(returning: value) } ) // Now that we monitor locationSubject, ask for the location DispatchQueue.global().async { self.manager.requestLocation() } } switch result { case .success(let location): // We got the location! return location case .failure(let failure): // We got an error :( throw failure } } // MARK: CLLocationManagerDelegate func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) { defer { manager.stopUpdatingLocation() } guard let location = locations.first else { locationSubject.send(.failure(.emptyLocations)) return } debugPrint("[Location] location: \(location.coordinate)") manager.stopUpdatingLocation() if geocoder.isGeocoding { geocoder.cancelGeocode() } geocoder.reverseGeocodeLocation(location) { [weak self] marks, error in guard let mark = marks?.last else { self?.locationSubject.send(.failure(.emptyMarks)) return } debugPrint("[Location] mark: \(mark.description)") self?.locationSubject.send(.success(mark)) } } func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: Error) { locationSubject.send(.failure(.errorMsg(error.localizedDescription))) } } I found it had not any response when the app intent performed. And there is a location logo tips in the top left corner of phone screen.

I have shortcuts up and running and I have my custom response added to my completion handler since day1. Recently I upgraded to iOS18, and found out the app I develop can not display the custom response. I test the app on iOS17.6, the display of custom response is no problem. The situation is exactly like the problem posted on 2018: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/109324 Can anyone help me or have the same bugs? Thank you so much! Happy 2025

If you add a (SiriKit / Widget) intent definition file to an Xcode project and then translate it into another language, the build of the iOS app only works until you close the project. As soon as you open the project again, you get the error message with the next build: Unexpected duplicate tasks A workaround for this bug is, that you convert the folder (where the intent file is located) in Xcode to a group. After that every thing works without problems. Steps to reproduce: Create a new iOS project Add a localization to the project (German for example) Add a SiriKit Intent Definition File Localize the SiriKit Intent Definition File Build the project (should work without errors) Close the project Open the project again Build the project again Expected result: The project builds without problems Current result: The project doesn’t build and returns the error: Unexpected duplicate tasks Is this a known problem? Is there a way to solve this without switching to Xcode groups (instead of folders)

Exploring AppIntents and Shortcuts. No matter what I try Siri won't understand parameters in an initial spoken phrase. For example, if I ask: "Start my planning for School in TestApp", Siri responds: "What's plan?", I say: "School" and Siri responds "Ok, starting Shool plan" What am I missing so it won't pick up parameters right away? Logs inside func entities(matching string: String) are only called after "What's plan?" question and me answering "School". No logs after the initial phrase Tried to use Apple's Trails example as a reference but with no luck
