unable to cancel test subscriptions
I tested a subscription with my developer account, it never charges but at the same time I can't cancel it anymore. It does not appear in the list of my official purchsed subscriptions. I tried to login to the sandbox with my developer account, but then when I click on "Manage" I just keep getting the error "Can't connect - retry". I have already tried to logout from all the services, App store, etc. and re-login, nothing worked. Is there anything I can do? Thanks in advance to anyone who can give any tips.

How to capture 48MP capture with Ultra wide lens using iPhone 16 pro max
I am working on capturing 48MP images using the iPhone 16 Pro Max with the Ultra-wide camera. I’ve updated the code to capture the maximum supported dimensions with the following snippet: if #available(iOS 16.0, *) { photoOutput.maxPhotoDimensions = device.activeFormat.supportedMaxPhotoDimensions.last! photoSettings.maxPhotoDimensions = .init(width: 5712, height: 4284) } However, I’m still not getting the expected results. My goal is to capture 48MP images, and I want to confirm if the Ultra-wide camera supports this resolution or if I’m missing any other configuration. Any guidance would be appreciated!

iOS 16 recurring payment configuration not reflecting in UI
We are integrating iOS 16 recurring payments in our app, everything works fine but we have a few questions Question 1 let recurringPaymentRequest = PKRecurringPaymentRequest(         paymentDescription: "Pro Membership",         regularBilling: regularBilling,         managementURL: url       ) we assume managementURL is supposed to come in the user's wallet where he/she can tap to change the recurring payment option to our backend, but in the wallet, the transaction appears without this URL and have no indication that it is a recurring payment, Can someone guide what we missed Question 2 For apps that only have apple pay on mobile, managementURL can open the app as a deep link from the Wallet app and the user can update or delete the payment method for the automatic reload payment from the app directly, Question 3 For cancellation, the recurring payment app should have some UI where the user can tap which hit our backend and remove the apple pay merchant token from our system and apply cancellation business logic, no apple API involves in the cancellation of recurring payment

Custom Background Image Fails to Display on UIToolbar
I am encountering a critical issue where a custom background image on a UIToolbar fails to display when the app is built with Xcode 26 and run on iOS 26 beta. The exact same implementation works perfectly on iOS 18 and earlier versions. We first attempted to use the legacy setBackgroundImage method, which fails to render the image on iOS 26: // 1. Get Navigation Bar and set basic properties UINavigationBar* navBar = self.navigationBar; navBar.hidden = NO; navBar.translucent = NO; // 2. Setup the UIToolbar instance UIToolbar *toolBar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:navBar.bounds]; toolBar.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth; // 3. Set the resizable image (This image does not appear on iOS 26) UIImage* imagePortrait = [UIImage imageNamed:@"nav_bg"]; UIEdgeInsets insets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.f, 6.f, 0.f, 6.f); [toolBar setBackgroundImage:[imagePortrait resizableImageWithCapInsets:insets] forToolbarPosition:UIToolbarPositionAny barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault]; We then migrated to the recommended modern UIToolbarAppearance to solve this, but the issue persists: // 1. Prepare Image UIImage* imagePortrait = [UIImage imageNamed:@"nav_bg"]; // Insets are applied via resizableImageWithCapInsets: (not shown in this snippet but implied) // 2. Configure UIToolbarAppearance UIToolbarAppearance *appearance = [[UIToolbarAppearance alloc] init]; appearance.backgroundImage = imagePortrait; // The image is correctly loaded (not nil) // 3. Apply the Appearance toolBar.standardAppearance = appearance; // We also applied to scrollEdgeAppearance and compactAppearance. Any information or recommended workarounds for displaying a custom background image on UIToolbar in the latest iOS 26 would be highly appreciated.

AppGroups data loss after App transfer and App update.
Hi, I just released a new version of an app that was transferred from another developer account. The previous version of this app used the App Groups feature to store some important data, and I would like to retrieve that data. In the new version, I’m using the same bundle identifier and the same App Group ID (which has already been deleted from the original developer account). I also added the App Groups entitlement in the project settings and set the same App Group ID. However, I still cannot access the data in the App Group. From the documentation and issues I’ve found, it seems that an app should still have permission to access the same App Group after being transferred. Did I miss something? Thanks!

DMM App Managed doesn't allow for reinstalls or respects version element
Hello, this may not be the correct place to ask this question so I apologize in advance if this is the case. I am currently running into two specifc issues while continuing to implement the app.managed configuration which are quite frustrating and I will detail them below Unlike MDM where an application could be "reinstalled", by sending an install application command down for the same app DM does not have a similar mechanism which causes some issues as (while inconsistent) devices do not always respect the configuration sent down, and will not begin downloading VPP applications. They can be seen in the configuration when checking under VPN & Device Management but they do not return on a status report, alternatively and app will "install" but will have a cloud symbol next to it requiring a download (which I believe would be impossible on supervised devices without apple accounts/have restricted apple accounts associated to them). These apps are also reported incorrectly, as they return a managed response while being inaccessible. Both of these issues are solved by removing and reinstall applications (occasionally). Is there any easier way to trigger a re-install or is this the only way to trigger this? The Version element that can be optionally sent down does not seem to work (or if it does, does so inconsistently). A device will very happily download the application initially with the version element present, though when we detect an updated external ID from the VPP program and send down an updated configuration devices behave unexpectedly. Some have ignored it, some have responded back that a download has begun (with no download taking place and the application clearly still being the initial installed version as can be see in the apps page) or it just works, but there is not consistency. I realize a new UpdateBehavior object has been added to possibly handle this, but it is only supported in iOS 26 and above and there are plenty of people who do not have phones that can upgrade that far. Are there alternative ways to enforce an application update other than uninstalling and reinstalling the application without the version (or will sending down a config without a version after one was originally pinned force it to update to latest?) Kind Regards

Flutter: abnormal delay on iOS in position recovery on first opening
Good morning everyone, I am developing a Flutter app for Android and iOS. When I press a button, the app detects the location of the device (obviously with permissions already granted). On Android everything works correctly. On iOS, however, when I press the button for the first time after opening the app, the location is detected after about 30-50 seconds. On the other hand, if I repeat the operation later, the response time is drastically reduced (only a few seconds). I am using the location package (https://pub.dev/packages/location), and the code to get the location is as follows: var currentLocation = await location.getLocation(); Has anyone experienced this problem before or knows how to solve it? Thank you very much! Federico

ScrollView paging position is off in iOS 26
Hi everyone, I have the following issue that I have tried to tweak every possible modifier of ScrollView and still got the same result in iOS 26. Description: Create a SwiftUI ScrollView with scrollTargetBehavior of paging, also create a bottom UI view below the ScrollView. If the starting index is not 0, the position of current page will be off with part of previous page shown above it. It only happens on iOS 26, not on iOS 18. Also if bottom UI view (text view in this case) is removed, it also works fine. I want to see if there is a solution for it or it's an iOS 26 bug. Thanks! import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var currentPageIndex: Int? = 3 var body: some View { VStack { scrollView Text("Bottom Bar") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 80) .background(.red) } .background(.black) } @ViewBuilder var scrollView: some View { VerticalPagerView( currentPageIndex: $currentPageIndex, itemCount: 10, content: Array(0...9).map { index in content(for: index) } ) } @ViewBuilder private func content(for index: Int) -> some View { // Empty view with random background color Color( red: Double((index * 25 + 0) % 255) / 255.0, green: Double((index * 25 + 80) % 255) / 255.0, blue: Double((index * 25 + 160) % 255) / 255.0 ) } } struct VerticalPagerView<Content: View>: View { @Binding private var currentPageIndex: Int? private let itemCount: Int private let content: [Content] init( currentPageIndex: Binding<Int?>, itemCount: Int, content: [Content] ) { self._currentPageIndex = currentPageIndex self.itemCount = itemCount self.content = content } var body: some View { GeometryReader { geometryReader in ScrollViewReader { reader in ScrollView(.vertical) { LazyVStack(spacing: 0) { ForEach(0 ..< itemCount, id: \.self) { index in content[index] .id(index) .containerRelativeFrame(.vertical, alignment: .center) .clipped() } } .frame(minHeight: geometryReader.size.height) .scrollTargetLayout() } .scrollIndicators(.hidden) .onAppear { guard let currentPageIndex = currentPageIndex else { return } reader.scrollTo(currentPageIndex, anchor: .center) } } .scrollPosition(id: $currentPageIndex, anchor: .center) .ignoresSafeArea() .scrollTargetBehavior(.paging) .onChange(of: currentPageIndex) { oldIndex, newIndex in } } } }

SwiftUI - AsyncImage causing massive tmp folder?
So I have a perplexing situation. I'm loading multiple SwiftUI AsyncImages according to spec (see code below). For some reason, my 1MB app has over 400+ MBs of documents & data. When I view the app's container, I can see that it is caused by a massive number of the images as .tmp files in the "tmp" folder all starting with the name "CFNetworkDownload". It seems that every time an image is loaded, it's stored in here, but does not delete. This makes the app get bigger every time it's opened. What can I do about this issue? Thanks so much! (P.S. I've tried to condense my code down as much as possible for readability, but there's a few files included because I'm not sure where the problem lies.) Main app Swift file: @main struct MyApp: App { let monitor = NWPathMonitor() @State private var isConnected = true var body: some Scene { monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { path in if path.status == .satisfied { if !isConnected { isConnected.toggle() } } else { if isConnected { isConnected.toggle() } } } let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "Monitor") monitor.start(queue: queue) return WindowGroup { isConnected ? AnyView(ContentView()) : AnyView(ContentViewFailed()) } } } The ContentView that's loaded inside the above WindowGroup: struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { HomeView() .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house.fill") Text("Home") } . . . } } } And finally, the HomeView where the images are being loaded: struct HomeView: View { var body: some View { let urlString = "https://www.example.com/Home.json" if let url = URL(string: urlString) { if let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url) { do { items = try JSONDecoder().decode([Item].self, from: data) } catch { print(error) } } } return NavigationView { List { ScrollView { VStack(alignment: .leading) { ZStack { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Spacer() HStack { AsyncImage(url: URL(string: "https://www.example.com/images/example.png")) { image in image .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill) .shadow(color: Color(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, opacity: 0.25), radius: 1) } placeholder: { ProgressView() .progressViewStyle(.circular) } .frame(width: 202, height: 100) } . . . } } } } } } } } I really appreciate your time. Not sure if this could just be a bug with AsyncImage itself.

iOS 26 Beta bug - keyboard toolbar with bottom safe area inset
Hello! I have experienced a weird bug in iOS 26 Beta (8) and previous beta versions. The safe area inset is not correctly aligned with the keyboard toolbar on real devices and simulators. When you focus a new textfield the bottom safe area is correctly placed aligned the keyboard toolbar. On real devices the safe area inset view is covered slightly by the keyboard toolbar, which is even worse than on the simulator. Here's a clip from a simulator: Here's the code that reproduced the bug I experienced in our app. #Preview { NavigationStack { ScrollView { TextField("", text: .constant("")) .padding() .background(Color.secondary) TextField("", text: .constant("")) .padding() .background(Color.green) } .padding() .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom, content: { Color.red .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 40) }) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .keyboard) { Button {} label: { Text("test") } } } } }

Notification coordination between iOS and watchOS is not working properly
Notification coordination between iOS and watchOS is not working properly watchOS and iOS try to coordinate between phone and watch notifications. The concept here is that if there is a main app and a companion app, they could both be sending a notification, then the notification would alert on both, which is a deviation from how notification mirroring is handled if there is an iOS app but no watch app. The watch waits for the iOS notification to fire so they can determine if this is the same notification that needs to be deduped, displayed on one device but not the other, or separate notifications to be displayed both. If there is no notification on the phone, the watch will timeout after 13 seconds and alert anyway. If you have an iOS companion app, the best solution to this is to send the same notification on both devices simultaneously, and ensuring the UNNotificationRequest.identifier matches on both notifications. This will let the systems determine how to handle the notification correctly and quickly, and the notification will alert right away. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/765669 According to the above article, "when a notification arrives on watchOS alone first, it coordinates with iOS," but in reality, it doesn't work properly. Detailed process of this phenomenon watchOS receives a notification. On watchOS, the notification is not immediately shown to the user. iOS receives a notification with the same UNNotificationRequest.identifier as in (1). The notification in (3) does not appear on either iOS or watchOS. However, the notification from (3) does appear in iOS Notification Center. Thirteen seconds after watchOS received the notification, the notification from (1) is shown to the user on watchOS. In the end, the iOS and watchOS notifications are not consolidated and each remains in its respective notification center. Up to (3) there are no issues. Starting with (4), both iOS and watchOS exhibit a lot of odd behavior. This phenomenon occurs with both local notifications and push notifications. When iOS receives the notification first, there is no problem. The notification for watch received later is processed appropriately, and the watchOS notification is not additionally displayed to the user. Expected proper process Same as above. Same as above. Same as above. The notification in (1) is integrated into the notification in (3). The notification in (3) is alerted to the user immediately. 2 sample projects to reproduce Only the main code is attached. Sample project1: local notifications Swift code for local notification app (iOS, watchOS) - App.swift.txt Sample project2: push notifications This sample project is implemented using Firebase Functions and Firebase Cloud Messaging. Swift code push notification app (iOS, watchOS) - App.swift.txt Server side JavaScript code for FirebaseFunction - index.js.txt Tested devices and OS This phenomenon occurred in both of the following patterns. Pattern 1 Xcode 26.0 iPhone 16 (iOS 26.0) Apple Watch series 10 (watchOS 26.0) Pattern 2 Xcode 16.4 iPhone 11 (iOS 18.6) Apple Watch SE 2nd gen (watchOS 11.6) Question Is this phenomenon a bug? Or is my understanding or implementation incorrect? Feedback Assistant number FB20339772

Sharing file creates new UIScene each time, how to prevent this
I have an App which supports multiple windows on the iPad. The App can receive URLs from other Apps (via application.openURL()) and also files via "share sheet" (via UIActivityViewController). When receiving a URL from another App the delegate method scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set) will be called on an existing UIScene, however when a file is received through the share sheet from another App, a new UIScene is created and therefore also a new window (eg the delegates application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) and scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) are called). In both cases I do get the URL and file just fine, however I do not want to get new UIScenes and windows created when receiving a file via share sheet. How can I prevent to get a new UIScene or window? The received files should be used in the existing windows and should not create new ones.

Step-by-step instructions on how to send an app to external testers with TestFlight in 2024?
New Apple Developer here, I've built my first iOS app in Xcode and wants to get it onto some friends' iPhones to do some external testing and give me some feedback. I've read the Apple Developer documentation on how to use TestFlight, but it's not understandable since step 1 is entering information about the app in App Store Connect and step 2 is uploading the app to App Store Connect? Can someone please write some easy step-by-step directions on how to get an iOS app from Xcode onto external testers' iPhones for a first-timer in 2024? Thank you so much!

iOS 26 navigationTransition .zoom issue
When I dismiss a view presented with .navigationTransition(.zoom), the source view gets a weird background (black or white depending on the appearance) for a couple of seconds, and then it disappears. Here’s a simple code example. import SwiftUI struct NavigationTransition: View { @Namespace private var namespace @State private var isSecondViewPresented = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { DetailView(namespace: namespace) .onTapGesture { isSecondViewPresented = true } } .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $isSecondViewPresented) { SecondView() .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "world", in: namespace)) } } } } struct DetailView: View { var namespace: Namespace.ID var body: some View { ZStack { Color.blue Text("Hello World!") .foregroundStyle(.white) .matchedTransitionSource(id: "world", in: namespace) } .ignoresSafeArea() } } struct SecondView: View { var body: some View { ZStack { Color.green Image(systemName: "globe") .foregroundStyle(Color.red) } .ignoresSafeArea() } } #Preview { NavigationTransition() }

On iOS 26 beta8, if a view's subview contains a WKWebView, using the CALayer's renderInContext method fails to capture the pixel
I’m experiencing an issue in WKWebView on iOS 26 Developer Beta 8. If a view's subview contains a WKWebView, using the CALayer's renderInContext method fails to capture the pixel at the current point, and the console outputs "unsupported surface format: &b38". The following code snippet was functioning as expected on iOS 18 and iOS 26 beta 1. However, it no longer works in the latest beta. Is this a known bug in the current iOS 26 betas, or is there a recommended workaround? - (BOOL)isTransparentAtTouchPoint:(CGPoint)point layer:(CALayer *)layer { unsigned char pixel[4] = {0}; CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(); CGContextRef context = CGBitmapContextCreate(pixel, 1, 1, 8, 4, colorSpace, (CGBitmapInfo) kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast); CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -point.x, -point.y); [layer renderInContext:context]; CGContextRelease(context); CGColorSpaceRelease(colorSpace); CGFloat alpha = pixel[3] / 255.0f; return alpha < 0.01; }

Thanks! import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var currentPageIndex: Int? = 3 var body: some View { VStack { scrollView Text("Bottom Bar") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 80) .background(.red) } .background(.black) } @ViewBuilder var scrollView: some View { VerticalPagerView( currentPageIndex: $currentPageIndex, itemCount: 10, content: Array(0...9).map { index in content(for: index) } ) } @ViewBuilder private func content(for index: Int) -> some View { // Empty view with random background color Color( red: Double((index * 25 + 0) % 255) / 255.0, green: Double((index * 25 + 80) % 255) / 255.0, blue: Double((index * 25 + 160) % 255) / 255.0 ) } } struct VerticalPagerView<Content: View>: View { @Binding private var currentPageIndex: Int? private let itemCount: Int private let content: [Content] init( currentPageIndex: Binding<Int?>, itemCount: Int, content: [Content] ) { self._currentPageIndex = currentPageIndex self.itemCount = itemCount self.content = content } var body: some View { GeometryReader { geometryReader in ScrollViewReader { reader in ScrollView(.vertical) { LazyVStack(spacing: 0) { ForEach(0 ..< itemCount, id: \.self) { index in content[index] .id(index) .containerRelativeFrame(.vertical, alignment: .center) .clipped() } } .frame(minHeight: geometryReader.size.height) .scrollTargetLayout() } .scrollIndicators(.hidden) .onAppear { guard let currentPageIndex = currentPageIndex else { return } reader.scrollTo(currentPageIndex, anchor: .center) } } .scrollPosition(id: $currentPageIndex, anchor: .center) .ignoresSafeArea() .scrollTargetBehavior(.paging) .onChange(of: currentPageIndex) { oldIndex, newIndex in } } } }

Xcode 16 compatibility with newly-released devices
Hi everyone, have any of you tried running an app from Xcode 16.x (during development, running on device) on one of the iPhone 17 models? I'd like to know whether it still works or if someone would need to update to Xcode 26 for that to work.

SwiftUI - AsyncImage causing massive tmp folder?
So I have a perplexing situation. I'm loading multiple SwiftUI AsyncImages according to spec (see code below). For some reason, my 1MB app has over 400+ MBs of documents & data. When I view the app's container, I can see that it is caused by a massive number of the images as .tmp files in the "tmp" folder all starting with the name "CFNetworkDownload". It seems that every time an image is loaded, it's stored in here, but does not delete. This makes the app get bigger every time it's opened. What can I do about this issue? Thanks so much! (P.S. I've tried to condense my code down as much as possible for readability, but there's a few files included because I'm not sure where the problem lies.) Main app Swift file: @main struct MyApp: App { let monitor = NWPathMonitor() @State private var isConnected = true var body: some Scene { monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { path in if path.status == .satisfied { if !isConnected { isConnected.toggle() } } else { if isConnected { isConnected.toggle() } } } let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "Monitor") monitor.start(queue: queue) return WindowGroup { isConnected ? AnyView(ContentView()) : AnyView(ContentViewFailed()) } } } The ContentView that's loaded inside the above WindowGroup: struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { HomeView() .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house.fill") Text("Home") } . . . } } } And finally, the HomeView where the images are being loaded: struct HomeView: View { var body: some View { let urlString = "https://www.example.com/Home.json" if let url = URL(string: urlString) { if let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url) { do { items = try JSONDecoder().decode([Item].self, from: data) } catch { print(error) } } } return NavigationView { List { ScrollView { VStack(alignment: .leading) { ZStack { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Spacer() HStack { AsyncImage(url: URL(string: "https://www.example.com/images/example.png")) { image in image .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill) .shadow(color: Color(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, opacity: 0.25), radius: 1) } placeholder: { ProgressView() .progressViewStyle(.circular) } .frame(width: 202, height: 100) } . . . } } } } } } } } I really appreciate your time. Not sure if this could just be a bug with AsyncImage itself.

iOS 26 Beta bug - keyboard toolbar with bottom safe area inset
Hello! I have experienced a weird bug in iOS 26 Beta (8) and previous beta versions. The safe area inset is not correctly aligned with the keyboard toolbar on real devices and simulators. When you focus a new textfield the bottom safe area is correctly placed aligned the keyboard toolbar. On real devices the safe area inset view is covered slightly by the keyboard toolbar, which is even worse than on the simulator. Here's a clip from a simulator: Here's the code that reproduced the bug I experienced in our app. #Preview { NavigationStack { ScrollView { TextField("", text: .constant("")) .padding() .background(Color.secondary) TextField("", text: .constant("")) .padding() .background(Color.green) } .padding() .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom, content: { Color.red .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 40) }) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .keyboard) { Button {} label: { Text("test") } } } } }

Notification coordination between iOS and watchOS is not working properly
Notification coordination between iOS and watchOS is not working properly watchOS and iOS try to coordinate between phone and watch notifications. The concept here is that if there is a main app and a companion app, they could both be sending a notification, then the notification would alert on both, which is a deviation from how notification mirroring is handled if there is an iOS app but no watch app. The watch waits for the iOS notification to fire so they can determine if this is the same notification that needs to be deduped, displayed on one device but not the other, or separate notifications to be displayed both. If there is no notification on the phone, the watch will timeout after 13 seconds and alert anyway. If you have an iOS companion app, the best solution to this is to send the same notification on both devices simultaneously, and ensuring the UNNotificationRequest.identifier matches on both notifications. This will let the systems determine how to handle the notification correctly and quickly, and the notification will alert right away. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/765669 According to the above article, "when a notification arrives on watchOS alone first, it coordinates with iOS," but in reality, it doesn't work properly. Detailed process of this phenomenon watchOS receives a notification. On watchOS, the notification is not immediately shown to the user. iOS receives a notification with the same UNNotificationRequest.identifier as in (1). The notification in (3) does not appear on either iOS or watchOS. However, the notification from (3) does appear in iOS Notification Center. Thirteen seconds after watchOS received the notification, the notification from (1) is shown to the user on watchOS. In the end, the iOS and watchOS notifications are not consolidated and each remains in its respective notification center. Up to (3) there are no issues. Starting with (4), both iOS and watchOS exhibit a lot of odd behavior. This phenomenon occurs with both local notifications and push notifications. When iOS receives the notification first, there is no problem. The notification for watch received later is processed appropriately, and the watchOS notification is not additionally displayed to the user. Expected proper process Same as above. Same as above. Same as above. The notification in (1) is integrated into the notification in (3). The notification in (3) is alerted to the user immediately. 2 sample projects to reproduce Only the main code is attached. Sample project1: local notifications Swift code for local notification app (iOS, watchOS) - App.swift.txt Sample project2: push notifications This sample project is implemented using Firebase Functions and Firebase Cloud Messaging. Swift code push notification app (iOS, watchOS) - App.swift.txt Server side JavaScript code for FirebaseFunction - index.js.txt Tested devices and OS This phenomenon occurred in both of the following patterns. Pattern 1 Xcode 26.0 iPhone 16 (iOS 26.0) Apple Watch series 10 (watchOS 26.0) Pattern 2 Xcode 16.4 iPhone 11 (iOS 18.6) Apple Watch SE 2nd gen (watchOS 11.6) Question Is this phenomenon a bug? Or is my understanding or implementation incorrect? Feedback Assistant number FB20339772

Sharing file creates new UIScene each time, how to prevent this
I have an App which supports multiple windows on the iPad. The App can receive URLs from other Apps (via application.openURL()) and also files via "share sheet" (via UIActivityViewController). When receiving a URL from another App the delegate method scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set) will be called on an existing UIScene, however when a file is received through the share sheet from another App, a new UIScene is created and therefore also a new window (eg the delegates application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) and scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) are called). In both cases I do get the URL and file just fine, however I do not want to get new UIScenes and windows created when receiving a file via share sheet. How can I prevent to get a new UIScene or window? The received files should be used in the existing windows and should not create new ones.

Step-by-step instructions on how to send an app to external testers with TestFlight in 2024?
New Apple Developer here, I've built my first iOS app in Xcode and wants to get it onto some friends' iPhones to do some external testing and give me some feedback. I've read the Apple Developer documentation on how to use TestFlight, but it's not understandable since step 1 is entering information about the app in App Store Connect and step 2 is uploading the app to App Store Connect? Can someone please write some easy step-by-step directions on how to get an iOS app from Xcode onto external testers' iPhones for a first-timer in 2024? Thank you so much!

iOS 26 navigationTransition .zoom issue
When I dismiss a view presented with .navigationTransition(.zoom), the source view gets a weird background (black or white depending on the appearance) for a couple of seconds, and then it disappears. Here’s a simple code example. import SwiftUI struct NavigationTransition: View { @Namespace private var namespace @State private var isSecondViewPresented = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { DetailView(namespace: namespace) .onTapGesture { isSecondViewPresented = true } } .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $isSecondViewPresented) { SecondView() .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "world", in: namespace)) } } } } struct DetailView: View { var namespace: Namespace.ID var body: some View { ZStack { Color.blue Text("Hello World!") .foregroundStyle(.white) .matchedTransitionSource(id: "world", in: namespace) } .ignoresSafeArea() } } struct SecondView: View { var body: some View { ZStack { Color.green Image(systemName: "globe") .foregroundStyle(Color.red) } .ignoresSafeArea() } } #Preview { NavigationTransition() }

On iOS 26 beta8, if a view's subview contains a WKWebView, using the CALayer's renderInContext method fails to capture the pixel
I’m experiencing an issue in WKWebView on iOS 26 Developer Beta 8. If a view's subview contains a WKWebView, using the CALayer's renderInContext method fails to capture the pixel at the current point, and the console outputs "unsupported surface format: &b38". The following code snippet was functioning as expected on iOS 18 and iOS 26 beta 1. However, it no longer works in the latest beta. Is this a known bug in the current iOS 26 betas, or is there a recommended workaround? - (BOOL)isTransparentAtTouchPoint:(CGPoint)point layer:(CALayer *)layer { unsigned char pixel[4] = {0}; CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(); CGContextRef context = CGBitmapContextCreate(pixel, 1, 1, 8, 4, colorSpace, (CGBitmapInfo) kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast); CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -point.x, -point.y); [layer renderInContext:context]; CGContextRelease(context); CGColorSpaceRelease(colorSpace); CGFloat alpha = pixel[3] / 255.0f; return alpha < 0.01; }
