Accessibility Localization Questions
For practice, I have implemented accessibility labels and announcement in a very simple test app (All SwiftUI, all iOS 18). The app is not localized, default language is English. When running this on a German phone, odd things happen in the localization. My accessibility labels are read with an accent, but when they contain a url, the "dots" are read as the German "Punkt" (with an English Accent). When I am providing the same text as accessibility announcement, the same text (which is in English), is read with a German voice. I am also providing a Button with an "arrow.clockwise" image, and VoiceOver reads this, in an English Voice with "Refresh, Button". This is great and was to be expected. However, when the button is disabled, VoiceOver reads "Refresh, grau dargestellt, Button", all in an English Voice. Is this an error? Am I doing it wrong? The video at the link should show the issue https://share.icloud.com/photos/0757FJW2Q3fsA_cdhMX6ls46Q

Female English Indian Siri Voice Pronounces Certain Words in the American Pronunciation Instead of the correct Pronunciation
I just downloaded the public release of iOS 18.2. I found a bug when using the English India female Siri voice, it’s pronouncing certain words using the American pronunciation instead of the correct pronunciation that the voice is supposed to have. For example, the Siri voice says the American pronunciation of the word privacy. This is definitely a bug that needs to get resolved as soon as possible. Can you please fix this right away?

调用苹果授权登录,AKAuthenticationError Code=-7074
我尝试创建一个command line tool 应用,然后创建一个dylib,其核心功能是,调用苹果登录。我安装sign in with apple 的要求,先生成一个bundle ID 然后,在开发者后台注册,同时开启其 sign in whit apple 功能。然后实现ASAuthorizationAppleIDRequest相关逻辑。运行后,控制台报错提示 [siwa] Authorization failed: Error Domain=AKAuthenticationError Code=-7074 "(null)"。相同操作对比创建app应用 是可以拉起苹果授权登录页面。对比了一下,有两点区别: 1、在signing&capabilities里,app应用可以添加sign in with apple 的capability,而command line tool 应用不可以 2、签名的区别,app的签名里会保护描述文件信息(包括bundle id)而command line tool 应用没有。 3、应用的差别,command line tool 应用 和 app应用。 现在不知道是哪个原因导致该报错

Can’t connect to App Store. iOS 15.8.3 - I need to update an App, but I can’t access App Store. Other Apps appear to work normally. AND I can’t connect the phone by cable to the PC. Both things work on my other iPhone 8.

Application "help" menu does not open main help book page
Following the official documentation, I'm trying to create a set of three localised Help Books. The Help Books should be available in Spanish, English and Polish. Presently, I'm trying to complete English version. App Structure This is the plugin application consisting of main app and the plugin. The main app structure would looks as follows: Files . <XcodeProject Top> ├── Localizable.xcstrings ├── MyAppExtension │   ├── MyAppExtension.swift │   └── <other swift files>.swift ├──MyApp │ ├── Info.plist │   ├── +Array.swift │   ├── +ButtonStyle.swift │   ├── <other app swift files>.swift ├── Resources     └── MyApp.help └── MyApp.help └── Contents ├── Info.plist └── Resources ├── English.lproj │   ├── ExactMatch.plist │   ├── InfoPlist.strings │   ├── MyApp.helpindex │   ├── MyApp.html │   └── pgs └── shrd MyApp / MyApp.help / Info.plist file Consists the following values: Bundle name: MyApp HPDBookAccessPath: MyApp.html HPDBookTitle: My App Help Default localization: en_gb MyApp / Info.plist file Contains the following entries: Help Book directory name: MyApp.help Help Book Identifier: MyApp Help Build phase The Copy Bundle Resources copies MyApp.help in MyApp/Resources. Questions Is the provided folder structure valid for creating a localised help books Is there anything that is missing from across Info.plist files or is in the wrong places? Why the MyApp -> Help opens the main help menu, not the app help

Keyboard Navigation Not Working for inline PhotosPicker
We are using inline PhotosPicker introduced with iOS 17.0. The accessbility navigation using touch gestures work fine but the navigation through Keyboard doesn't work properly. The tab/arrow based Keyboard navigation can't move from native app process to inline PhotosUI process or vice versa. This is logged as a high severity bug by our accessibility team. Please look into this. Sample code for repro: https://github.com/saalisumer/AccessibilityIssueInlinePhotoPickerIOS Repro video: https://github.com/saalisumer/AccessibilityIssueInlinePhotoPickerIOS/blob/main/Simulator%20Screen%20Recording%20-%20iPhone%2015%20Pro%20-%202024-12-16%20at%2016.27.48.mp4
