Hey dear developers! This post should be available for the future Siri updates and improvements but also for wishes in this forum so that everyone can share their opinion and idea please stay friendly. have fun! I had already thought about developing a demo app to demonstrate my idea for a better Siri. My change of many: Wish Update: Siri's language recognition capabilities have been significantly enhanced. Instead of manually setting the language, Siri can now automatically recognize the language you intend to use, making language switching much more efficient. Simply speak the language you want to communicate in, and Siri will automatically recognize it and respond accordingly. Whether you speak English, German, or Japanese, Siri will respond in the language you choose.

When on a call and when pressing the speaker button during a call iPads come up as an option. I went in to settings->apps->phone, but “calls on other devices” isn’t an option. I’d like to eliminate the option of transferring calls to an iPad but can’t find an option to do it.

I investigated what network interface names are assigned to carrier networks on a dual SIM iPhone by examining the output of getifaddrs(). (An part of the program used for this is provided below.) ////////////// struct ifaddrs *interfaces = NULL; struct ifaddrs *an_interface = NULL; if (0 == getifaddrs(&interfaces)) { an_interface = interfaces; while (an_interface != NULL) { if( an_interface->ifa_addr->sa_family == AF_INET) { NSString* name = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:an_interface->ifa_name]; NSLog(@"Interface name is: %@", name); } an_interface = an_interface->ifa_next; } } freeifaddrs(interfaces); In this investigation, it appeared that the interface name for the sXGP SIM selected under "iPhone > Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data" was always "pdp_ip0". (A screenshot of "Cellular Data" is provided below. this is sample of sXGP selected )" [QUESTION] Is the SIM selected in Settings of iPhone always assigned to "pdp_ip0"? [BACKGROUND] I am developing a VoIP application and opening sockets by specifying IP addresses for communication. On a dual SIM iPhone, multiple networks (IP addresses) are visible. Therefore, I need to determine which network to use. My question is whether I can reliably make this decision based on the network interface name. If the SIM selected in Settings is always assigned to "pdp_ip0", I intend to open the socket using the IP address of "pdp_ip0". Alternatively, should I use a different method to select the appropriate network interface?

Has anyone else had any issued with their CarPlay with the new phone? My screen gets distorted and you cannot make up anything that shows up on it, it's specific to the new phone since I have also tried it with an iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 13. I have updated my car's firmware, reset it, reset my phone settings (per Apple's request) and nothing seems to be working, and unfortunately since I'm on the beta they are limited with the assistance they are able to provide to me.

Hi developers, The iOS 18 has been unsigned since 09/23, which is much earlier than Apple usually does. In addition, the new features in IOS26 are tough to get used to; therefore, the sign for IOS18.7 is urgently needed by a large number of Apple users! Please see discussions on every social media across various languages.

Hello, we are developing hardware that needs to connect to an iPhone via Wi-Fi to send requests to a server. On Android, we have managed to create a programmatic local hotspot within the app to facilitate connection and improve the user experience. On iOS, however, Personal Hotspot must be manually enabled from the system settings, and the user must manually enter the SSID and password, which significantly degrades the UX. My questions are: Is there a workaround, unofficial method, or private API to generate a local hotspot from an app on iOS, similar to what can be done on Android? Is there an alternative within the MFi program or through specific frameworks to facilitate a quick and automatic connection between the hardware and the iPhone without relying on the manual Personal Hotspot? Are there any best practices for improving the local Wi-Fi connection experience between an accessory and an iPhone in the absence of hotspot controls? I would appreciate any guidance, experience, or resources that would help me better understand the feasible options in iOS for scenarios where fast and direct communication between hardware and mobile devices via Wi-Fi is required.

Hello. Is there a solution to the issue where Core Bluetooth does not run in the background on the iPhone17? https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/NetworkingInternetWeb/Conceptual/CoreBluetooth_concepts/CoreBluetoothBackgroundProcessingForIOSApps/PerformingTasksWhileYourAppIsInTheBackground.html The bluetooth-central Background Execution Mode When an app that implements the central role includes the UIBackgroundModes key with the bluetooth-central value in its Info.plist file, the Core Bluetooth framework allows your app to run in the background to perform certain Bluetooth-related tasks. While your app is in the background you can still discover and connect to peripherals, and explore and interact with peripheral data. In addition, the system wakes up your app when any of the CBCentralManagerDelegate or CBPeripheralDelegate delegate methods are invoked, allowing your app to handle important central role events, such as when a connection is established or torn down, when a peripheral sends updated characteristic values, and when a central manager’s state changes. Although you can perform many Bluetooth-related tasks while your app is in the background, keep in mind that scanning for peripherals while your app is in the background operates differently than when your app is in the foreground. In particular, when your app is scanning for device while in the background: The CBCentralManagerScanOptionAllowDuplicatesKey scan option key is ignored, and multiple discoveries of an advertising peripheral are coalesced into a single discovery event. If all apps that are scanning for peripherals are in the background, the interval at which your central device scans for advertising packets increases. As a result, it may take longer to discover an advertising peripheral. These changes help minimize radio usage and improve the battery life on your iOS device.

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 } } } }

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.

What options do I have if I don't want to use Blackmagic's Camera ProDock as the external Sync Hardware, but instead I want to create my own USB-C hardware accessory which would show up as an AVExternalSyncDevice on the iPhone 17 Pro? Which protocol does my USB-C device have to implement to show up as an eligible clock device in AVExternalSyncDevice.DiscoverySession?

Hello In my app code (in flutter) but you can remain if you code in other langages, maybe you can help in other ways, I have a file called: project.pbxproj I am wondering about this line: ARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY = "1,2"; Is it true that the 1 is for Iphone and 2 for Ipad? Would that mean that if I wrote "1" and removed 2, then in my app page in developer store side I would not see a tab for Ipad where the store requires from me to post screenshots for ipad? For instance (see image below) I know you guys use XCODE and it handels it itself, but can you open your .ipa files and check "project.pbxproj" to confirm differences between these files when the app is targeting Iphone Vs targeting Ipad? Thanks

I have some logic which requires NFC support on the device. This is what I'm using to make sure that it's available: isNFCMissing = !NFCNDEFReaderSession.readingAvailable && !NFCTagReaderSession.readingAvailable && !NFCVASReaderSession.readingAvailable Is it possible for isNFCMissing to be true even if the device has an NFC chip. The minimum iOS version for the application is 16 which is only supported on devices with an NFC chip to begin with.

Hey everyone, After updating my iPhone 15 Pro Max to iOS 26 RC today, I noticed a bright line appearing on the display (as shown in the photo). At first, I thought I was just unlucky and my screen had gone bad, but then I saw several similar reports on Reddit (links below). Just wondering—has anyone else here experienced the same issue? And if so, did you find any fix or workaround? https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/comments/1mswbel/ios_26_pb3_bright_line_appeared_on_screen/ https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/comments/1mtuabs/ios_26_db6_white_bar_appeared_on_display/?share_id=FZ7lTJC07DxcrIRlj1mbv&amp;utm_content=2&amp;utm_medium=ios_app&amp;utm_name=ioscss&amp;utm_source=share&amp;utm_term=1 Thanks in advance!

On iOS, I have a deep link that opens the app directly if it’s already installed. If the app is not installed, the user is first redirected to my website, which then automatically redirects them to the App Store. The deep link contains a parameter that should be passed to the app. On Android, this is possible because the Play Store provides a referrer ID after installation, which allows the app to fetch the parameter on first launch. What options are available on iOS to achieve the same behavior — i.e., preserving and passing the deep link parameter through the App Store install flow? I’m already aware of solutions like Branch.io, other deferred deep linking services, and the clipboard approach, so I’m looking for alternative approaches.

Hi, I am experiencing a critical issue with my app (dbMobil) in its published state. When the app is installed via TestFlight, it works without any problems and no errors can be detected. However, when downloading the same app from the App Store, it immediately crashes for many users without displaying any error message, directly at app start. This issue also occurs on my own test devices: TestFlight version: works flawlessly App Store version: crashes immediately upon launch It appears that there must be a difference between the version I submitted and published via TestFlight and the one currently available on the App Store. Could you please provide me with feedback on what differences may exist between these two versions and where the cause of this issue might lie? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Dear Apple Support Team, We are experiencing an issue with the Offer Code Redemption Sheet in our iOS app. Despite following Apple’s recommended approaches, the redemption sheet does not close automatically after a user successfully redeems a code. We have implemented both methods as suggested in the documentation: StoreKit 2 (iOS 16+): AppStore.presentOfferCodeRedeemSheet(in: scene) StoreKit 1 (iOS 14–15): SKPaymentQueue.default().presentCodeRedemptionSheet() Expected behavior: The sheet should automatically close after a successful code redemption and provide a receipt for verification. Observed behavior: The sheet remains open even after a code is successfully redeemed, and we do not receive a receipt to validate the redemption. We would greatly appreciate guidance or any workaround to ensure that: The redemption sheet closes automatically after redemption. A valid receipt is delivered for verification. For your reference, we are testing on: iOS versions: 16+, 15+ Device models: iPhone 16 and others Please let us know if additional information, logs, or screen recordings are needed to investigate this issue.

trying to deploy the LotBot app to my physical device, rtd2, which is listed as a device in the App Developer Portal. when I create a provision file it is always for W246SX52AS, as seen in the developer portal, but from Xcode I am showing a app id of "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (86537MF8N2)". Message: I am unable to create a "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (W246SX52AS)" so I may deploy to the device and the App Store. I have signed out and back in to Xcode with my account but when creating the profile it is always the 86537MF8N2. 95E07D345D31D45E4589FA7EA6FDF161E079C100 "Apple Distribution: Richard Dukes (W246SX52AS)" 5AC76CE9331F80AE953C4C76FC21DE5C2416293E "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (86537MF8N2)" How can I get Xcode to use W246SX52AS? I have these help tickets open as well. case ID is 102678952862 case ID is 102678950460 I have been fighting this for a while. Please help me figure out to get this resolved.

Hi guys, I'm facing an issue with the native interface to add a card into the wallet - does someone have some ideas on how to fix/work around that? STEPS TO REPRODUCE: Disable VoiceOver (Settings → Accessibility → VoiceOver → Off). Connect and confirm that you can navigate other iOS interfaces using an external keyboard. In any app, present a PKAddPassesViewController with a valid .pkpass file. When the Wallet “Add Pass” sheet appears, attempt to navigate using only the external keyboard (Tab/Arrow/Enter). Observe that focus does not move to the Cancel or Add buttons, and no elements receive keyboard focus. EXPECTED RESULT: All interactive elements in PKAddPassesViewController (e.g., Cancel and Add) should be fully keyboard accessible without requiring VoiceOver. Users should be able to navigate, select, and complete actions using only a hardware keyboard. ACTUAL RESULT: Keyboard navigation is not possible. No elements receive focus. Users cannot activate Cancel or Add buttons using keyboard input. The only way to interact is by touch or enabling VoiceOver, which does not satisfy keyboard accessibility requirements. IMPACT: Violates WCAG 2.1 Success Criterion 2.1.1 (Keyboard Accessible). Prevents keyboard-only users (including users with motor disabilities) from adding passes to Wallet. Affects users of external keyboards who rely on tab/arrow navigation. Creates an inconsistent accessibility experience compared to other iOS system modals.
