Original discussion pre iOS 26
Our app uses Auth0 with HTTPS callback, we've found the issue where AASA file is not ready immediately when app is initially launched, which is the exact issue from the above link.
The issue seems mostly fixed on later versions on iOS 18, however, we are seeing some indications of a regression on iOS 26. Here's some measurement over the last week.
| Platform | iOS 18 | iOS 26 |
|---------------|----------|--------|
| Adoption rate | 55% | 45% |
| Issue seen | 1 | 5 |
| Recover? | Yes | No |
This only 1 iOS 18 instance was able to recover after 1 second after the first try, however, all iOS 26 instances were not able to recover in couple tens of seconds and less than 1 minute, the user eventually gave up.
- Is there a way to force app to update AASA file?
- Are there some iOS setting (like using a VPN) that could potentially downgrade the AASA fetch?
