UWB Background Ranging with Live Activities - iOS 18.4
I’m developing an app that uses UWB for proximity detection between users. I have questions about iOS 18.4’s new Live Activity background UWB capabilities. Live Activity Background UWB “Loophole” Apple’s documentation states that apps can continue UWB ranging in background with “any supported device” if a Live Activity is started as the app backgrounds - without requiring Bluetooth LE pairing. Key Questions: 1. Background initiation: Can new UWB sessions be initiated between devices while in background using Live Activities, or must sessions start in foreground first? 2. No pairing requirement: Does this iOS 18.4 Live Activity approach truly eliminate the need for Bluetooth LE pairing for background UWB ranging? 3. Session persistence: How long can UWB ranging continue in background with an active Live Activity? 4. Testing without entitlement: Can I test UWB functionality between multiple devices in Xcode without the Nearby Interaction entitlement approved yet? Context My app needs precise proximity detection between users in real-time. The Live Activity background capability would be essential since users need to put phones away while the ranging continues. This iOS 18.4 feature seems like it could be a game-changer for apps requiring background UWB functionality without the complexity of Bluetooth pairing. Has anyone successfully implemented this Live Activity + background UWB approach?

APP Background Keep-Alive
Dear Apple: We are developing an app for file sharing between mobile devices. We want to create an iOS app that can continue sharing files with other devices even when it is running in the background. We are using WLAN channels for file sharing. Could you please advise on which background persistence measures we should use to ensure the iOS app can maintain file transfer when it goes to the background? Thank you.

Nearby entitlement for third party accessories
How do I gain access to the com.apple.developer.nearby-interaction entitlement for third-party accessory use with Qorvo DWM3001CDK? I've read the documentation but it is not available in Xcode Capabilities. What is the approval process?
