I have a text-to-speech app that generates speech using non-Apple technology. My users are requesting to use it for phone and FaceTime calls. Is there any way I can play generated audio through a phone or FaceTime call?

I have a text to speech assisted-audio-communication (AAC) app that uses both Apple and non-Apple technologies for voice synthesis. Apple's marketing page for "Live Speech" says that, when "Live Speech" is turned on, that AAC apps can provide the text to be read. I can't see how to do this. Is it possible?

I have a list of items that have swipe actions that I'd like to hide from accessibility and make actions available via the AccessibilityActions modifier. Additionally, I would like to make the contextMenu annoucable as an action. This behavior exists in the Apple Podcasts app but can't find out to do it in SwiftUI. If the users knows to use the triple-tap, they can activate the context menu but have it as an action of the element is even better.

Hello Team, I am not able to capture any elements on physical iPad device in Landscape mode. Elements appear to be offset.

I am using below devices: iPAD(10th generation) - iOS 17.6.1 Xcode - 15.4 Appium - 2.11.3 Xcuitest to 7.26.0 Note - I am able to capture the elements in the portrait mode on ipad Could you please help me or provide any inputs on this ?

Hello, I am trying to add an accessibility label and hint to a SwiftUI sheet's drag indicator but am not having any luck. Currently, VO reads 'sheet grabber, button, double tap to expand the sheet'. I'd really like VO to also include the current height of the sheet (similar to Apple Maps sheet). Does anyone by chance know how I can target the drag indicator/sheet grabber to do this? Thanks in advance.

I have created wallet non UI extension for adding card through wallet. It's working perfect when I open wallet from iPhone. But when I open wallet from Watch app (Watch bridge app on iPhone not on physical apple watch) then my extension (issuer app) is not showing there. Any idea if I need to setup or configure anything to access extension through watch bridge app wallet?

A lot of apps use undocumented App-prefs URLs to help users get to the iOS Settings screen needed to set up the app. In iOS 18, it seems like these all stopped working. Here are the ones I currently use: App-prefs:MESSAGES - broken in iOS 18 Used for SMS Protection. App-prefs:Phone - broken in iOS 18 Used for Live Voicemail, Silence Unknown Callers, and SMS Reporting. Some but not most paths have specific documented replacements. E.g. for Call Blocking & Identification you can use CXCallDirectoryManager.sharedInstance.openSettings() and this still works in iOS 18. But I don't see any other direct replacements. Apple probably doesn't consider this a bug but I filed FB14378568 anyway. I consider this an accessibility issue because many older, inexperienced, or users with disabilities have trouble finding the right Settings screen based on a textual description alone.

I’m developing an app for Vision Pro and have encountered an issue related to the UI layout and model display. Here's a summary of the problem: I created an anchor window to display text and models in the hand menu UI. While testing on my Vision Pro, everything works as expected; the text and models do not overlap and appear correctly. However, after pushing the changes to GitHub and having my client test it, the text and models are overlapping. Details: I’m using Reality Composer Pro to load models and set them in the hand menu UI. All pins are attached to attachmentHandManu, and attachmentHandManu is set to track the hand and show the elements in the hand menu. I ensure that the attachmentHandManu tracks the hand properly and displays the UI components correctly in my local tests. Question: What could be causing the text and models to overlap in the client’s environment but not in mine? Are there any specific settings or configurations I should verify to ensure consistent behavior across different environments? Additionally, what troubleshooting steps can I take to resolve this issue?

Hello everyone Yesterday I logged in with my Apple id on the Apple developer site. I have no subscription so some functions are not available for my account. Since I logged in, if I go to settings, general, software updates the beta updates also appear. I wanted to know if there is a way to remove this and to delete my account from Apple developer. Thank you

When voiceover is turned on in IOS devices the video controls like pause/resume, forward , backward are not working in inline mode and works fine in fullscreen. The controls are announced properly in voiceover,but when we press it, it is not performing any action at all. We used HTML5 video tag to display mp4 video in our app.we have added all necessary accessibility tags as well. We also observe the same issue is happening in the w3school web page. Attaching the link here for reference. (https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video) Could you please guide us why the video controls are not working. Is there anything we want to change or any update needed from the safari side.

Heya, I'm currently building out my own application for tracking my health information, and I'm hoping to collect my historical data from Apple Health. Sadly, it would appear that certain things I wish to export don't appear in the export.xml file. Some of the things that I would expect to find in the export.xml file, that do not currently appear, are as follows: More data about my medications, currently I can only export a list of my medications, its not possible to export data such as when what medication was taken. Logged emotions; there is currently no support for this (that I can find). Would appreciate some insight into this.

Hi, I am trying to include an Image in the Apple News template which is clickable, meaning if a user clicks on that image it should be redirected to a different page. I am using action and openURL as below but it seems though the image is loading fine but its not doing anything when I click on the image. { "role": "container", "components": [ { "role": "container", "components": [ { "role": "image", "URL": "https://myImageURL.jpg", "action": { "type": "openURL", "URL": "https://URLToBeRedirected" } } ] } ] } I am using Newspreview to preview my article.json. Please let me know any resolution for this issue.

So basically using IOS voiceover it reads a radio button like this. Aria label +"check box" + "radio button uncheck 1/2 required" is this behavior expected for the IOS Voice over. Thank you !

Hi everyone, I’m exploring the idea of displaying a live 3D view of Google Maps in a Vision Pro app using SwiftUI and RealityKit. I want users to be able to interact with the map, including panning, zooming in and out, and exploring different areas in a fully immersive environment. Is this technically possible within the Vision Pro ecosystem? If so, what would be the recommended approach to implement this? If not, are there any alternative methods or platforms that could provide a similar experience? Thanks in advance for your insights! Best, Siddharth
