In iOS 16, UIDevice.name has changed to only return the model of the device, not the user specified name. There is an entitlement, com.apple.developer.device-information.user-assigned-device-name that can be requested to keep the old behaviour, but I can't find any info on how to request that entitlement. Anyone able to help?

Hello 👋🏽 I am a new iOS developer and I am having a hard time understanding the behavior of the new UIPasteControl to avoid showing the system prompt. Does anyone has any example code I could look at to understand the behavior. Idk how to set the target of the button to the general pasteboard. also I am using objective-c . thanks cristian

Hi, in the video wwdc2022-10096 at about 05:45 it is explained how to allow other software to update your software by adding team-idetifiers an signing-identifiers to an Info.plist. I would need a few more details. Which Info.plist file do I have to change? I use pkgbuild to build the packages and productbuild to combine them. pkgbuild --analyse --root generates an .plist-file for every single package. Do I have to add the Information there? productbuild --sythesize generates an xml-file discribing the whole thing. This would refer better to the installer as a whole, but it is not an info.plist. How and where exactly to add the information? I tried to use plutil, but it doesn't like array-names to start with numbers as team-identifiers often do. Also it crashes quite often. The .plist-files generated by pkgbuild either contain an empty array or several unnamed items. [ ] Do I even need to add something threre? The other one contains several Items: [   0 => {     "BundleIsRelocatable" => 0     "BundleIsVersionChecked" => 1     "BundleOverwriteAction" => "upgrade"     "NSUpdateSecurityPolicy" => {       "AllowProcesses" => {         "123ABC" => [           0 => "com.example.pal.about"         ]       }     }     "RootRelativeBundlePath" => "Library/PreferencePanes/***.prefPane"   }   1 => {     "BundleIsRelocatable" => 0     "BundleIsVersionChecked" => 1     "BundleOverwriteAction" => "upgrade"     "NSUpdateSecurityPolicy" => {       "AllowProcesses" => {         "123ABC" => [           0 => "com.example.pal.about"         ]       }     }     "RootRelativeBundlePath" => "Library/Frameworks/***.framework"   }   2 => {     "BundleHasStrictIdentifier" => 1     "BundleIsRelocatable" => 0     "BundleIsVersionChecked" => 1     "BundleOverwriteAction" => "upgrade"     "NSUpdateSecurityPolicy" => {       "AllowProcesses" => {         "123ABC" => [           0 => "com.example.pal.about"         ]       }     }     "RootRelativeBundlePath" => "Applications/***.app"   } ] Should it look like this? A more detailed example would be great. Thanks!

I'm working on a project that will also support a "My Devices" web portal. For making this work, we need the name that a user did assign to the device. In the documentation there is a link to apply for the com.apple.developer.device-information.user-assigned-device-name entitlement but the link is going nowhere for me. How to request the com.apple.developer.device-information.user-assigned-device-name entitlement from here? Apple Documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com_apple_developer_device-information_user-assigned-device-name Link to request the entitlement: https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/user-assigned-device-name/ WWDC 2022 session where this entitlement is described: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022/10096
