Hi everyone, I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program on Tuesday evening, November 4th, 2025. The payment has already been charged to my bank account, but my account still shows the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership”. It’s now been several days, and I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information. I already contacted Apple Support by email, but I’d like to know if other developers have experienced the same situation and how long it took before their account was activated. Thanks in advance for your help and feedback! — Martin

I am getting this issue when trying to accept an invite to a new test version of our app. ****Unable to Accept invite This invitation cannot be accepted because your Apple Account, xxxxxxxx.me.com, has already been associated to this app.**** Can you help please?

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.

Please note the error after the iOS 26 update I updated to the beta version of iOS 26, but the phone did not charge more than one percent and it reboots every couple of minutes when charging. In the settings, the maximum battery capacity says 0% the phone did not fall before the update, everything was fine, I updated it and this stuff started Even the recovery can't be done because it restarts in the middle of the process.

All of the Sports widgets in iOS 18 have disappeared for older models, people relied on these for sports updates!! Not even the new Apple Sports app has a widget...

I occasionally get this error in Xcode’s console: Potential Structural Swift Concurrency Issue: unsafeForcedSync called from Swift Concurrent context. What does this mean, and how can I resolve it? Googling it doesn’t turn up any results. This doesn't crash the app - it’s just an error diagnostic that I see in the Xcode console. The app keeps running before and after the issue. Is there a way I can set a breakpoint to catch this where it happens?

Good afternoon. I have a problem with the fact that they deducted $99 from me on February 13, 2025, but they never gave me a developer ID. I assume that the problem arose due to the fact that during the first attempts to write off, there was a limit on the card for online purchases. But then I removed this limit, and the payment went through. Please help me as I have been trying to register for a long time. Thank you

I wrote this in the regular forums and they deleted it and told me to write it here because it was dealing with unreleased software. I read that Launchpad is disappearing in Tahoe and I have real concerns about that. For me, that is an accessibility issue. I have both memory problems and scanning problems. So having my apps organized into categories is extremely important to me. Just today I needed to find an app that I didn't remember the name of and I rarely use, but when I need it, it is important to me. Just to see if I could find it without launchpad, I scanned my applications folder and I couldn't find it. I went to launchpad and to the category I knew it was in and it was right there, easy for me to find. Please don't take away our organization options.

I have screen in my app that can represented by following layout, I would like this screen to be possible to navigate with full keyboard access but there is unexpected behavior: Path: Tap "Tab" on keyboard -> whole scrollview is targeted and inside the first button1 is selected. Arrow down -> selection changes to button3 Arrow up -> selection changes back to button1 So button2 is always skipped, there is no way to navigate to it by arrows left/right. Using Tab+F and searching "button2", button2 is correctly selected, so it's selectable but for some reason not findable by going through elements. Putting empty text in Text views cause buttons to be vertically aligned and then everything works correctly but it is not an option. public struct BugReportView: View { public var body: some View { ScrollView { VStack(spacing: .zero) { Button("button1", action: { }) HStack { Text("some text") Text("some text2") Button("button2", action: { }) } Button("button3", action: { }) } } } }

Hi all, I’ve got a usability question about accessibility navigation. My app has a lot of carousels (horizontally scrolling lists of content with far more elements than can fit on the screen). Often, these are just images, but sometimes, they’re cards with multiple subelements. In our previous implementation, each card was a single accessibility element, and we exposed the subelements as accessibility custom actions. Despite this, users frequently mentioned navigating with VoiceOver as a pain point. It takes a long time to navigate through and navigate past these carousels. To solve this, I converted my carousels into a single adjustable element, so users can navigate through it with one swipe, and they can still access the elements by adjusting the values up and down. I got this advice from this 2018 WWDC talk. Is this still the recommended advice? Or is there a new, preferred way to do this? Additionally, I had to get a little creative with the second carousel, the one with multiple subelements. Some of these were interactive (imagine a card with a description, an upvote button, and a downvote button). Adjustable elements override the accessibility custom actions VoiceOver gesture, so I can’t expose the individual buttons as actions. Instead, I made each subelement in each card in the carousel one of the adjustable values. Swiping up would go from description 1 to upvote button 1 to downvote button 1 to description 2, etc. Double tapping with VoiceOver would perform whatever action the carousel is currently on. So if I adjust the value to the element at index 2 (say, downvote 1), double tapping would trigger the downvote button’s action. Does this make sense? Is there a better way to do this? This seemed to be the best compromise between screenreader navigation speed, exposing all actions, and the existing UI.

The accessibility nutrition labels seem like a great feature. I don't see keyboard access mentioned, are there plans to add this into the accessibility nutrition labels? To emphasise that keyboard accessibility is not just for desktop computers, apps need it too.

We have a password entry field with a "show password" button. The button effectively turns the "secure text entry" textfield into a non-secure text entry field allowing the user to view what they typed in. When VoiceOver is enabled, I am not including that button in the UI; it doesn't seem to make sense to me for the following reasons. If you properly test with the screen curtain, the functionality is useless. You don't see anything. I've tried to explain this to my accessibility team. It's also quite ridiculous to offer to show a blind user their password, I'm sure they'd love to see it, but they just can't. This would almost seem insulting as well. If by toggling that button, and turning a secure text entry into a non-secure text entry, now the app is literally speaking their password aloud. This seems like a security vulnerability to me. What if someone else overhears the password spoken aloud. The accessibility team is insisting that I need to include the "show password" button when VoiceOver is enabled. This is the response I received. "functionality should be the same for VI users as for sighted users. It may happen that a VI user wants to check what is typed into password field in order to correct mistakes". Again, I don't agree with that because functionality should not be the same. Functionality should be changed and altered as necessary to make the user experience as accessible as possible. And in this scenario, to me the functionality doesn't make sense at all in a VoiceOver setting. Any thoughts on this? Am I incorrect here? Are there benefits of including a "show password" button to a user utilizing VoiceOver? What should then the functionality be? Speak the password aloud? Thanks.

Hey all — hoping someone here has dealt with this before. I’m testing an iOS app via TestFlight, and when I originally got access, I didn’t have an iPhone. So I signed in with my Apple ID on my girlfriend’s iPhone and used TestFlight there. Everything worked fine. Now I finally have my own iPhone (iPhone 16), downloaded TestFlight, signed in with the same Apple ID, and had the developer resend the invite. But when I tap "Open in TestFlight" from the invite email, I get this error: “Couldn’t load app because your Apple account has already been associated to this app.” The dev tried removing me as a tester and re-adding me, I’ve deleted TestFlight from both phones, rebooted, reinstalled, waited in between — still no luck. Even tried opening the invite link in Safari instead of Mail. Is there any way to get Apple to fully reset the association with the old device so I can use TestFlight on my new iPhone? Or do I really need to make a new Apple ID just to get around this? Any help would be huge — thanks!

I have an app that uses nearby with a custom accessory. works great on iPhone 11-13, starting with iPhone 14, one must use ARkit to get angles we have two problems ARkit is light sensitive, and we do not control the lighting where this app would run.. the 11-13 action works great even in the dark. (our users are blind, this is an accessibility app) ARkit wants to be foreground, but our uses cannot see it, and we have a voice oriented UI that provides navigation instructions.. IF ARkit is foreground, our app doesn't work. with iPhone 15 ProMax, on IOS 18, I got an error, access denied. (not permission denied) now that I am on IOS 26.. bt scan doesn't happen also fails same way on iPhone 17 on IOS26, can't callback now as release signing is no longer done this same code works ok on iOS 17.1 on iPhone 12.

How to access application’s Trust Store to include the new server certificate

Hi Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing persistent issues with the Apple Search Ads API since today morning (August 16, 2025). My application keeps getting "Service Unavailable" errors when trying to connect to the API endpoints. Error Details: Error Message: "Service Unavailable" HTTP Status: 503/500 API Endpoint: https://api.searchads.apple.com/api/v5/* Frequency: Consistent failures since August 16, 2025 What I've Tried: Verified API credentials and certificates are valid Tested multiple API endpoints Checked network connectivity The API was working fine until yesterday, and no changes were made to our implementation. Any insights or updates from the community would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

I am working on capturing 48MP images using the iPhone 16 Pro Max with the Ultra-wide camera. I’ve updated the code to capture the maximum supported dimensions with the following snippet: if #available(iOS 16.0, *) { photoOutput.maxPhotoDimensions = device.activeFormat.supportedMaxPhotoDimensions.last! photoSettings.maxPhotoDimensions = .init(width: 5712, height: 4284) } However, I’m still not getting the expected results. My goal is to capture 48MP images, and I want to confirm if the Ultra-wide camera supports this resolution or if I’m missing any other configuration. Any guidance would be appreciated!

I have a question about Developer Mode on iPhone. Currently, the home button on my iPhone SE (2nd generation) is broken, so I use AssistiveTouch to display a virtual home button. However, in Developer Mode, the virtual home button does not appear, making it impossible to enable Developer Mode. Is there any way to enable Developer Mode in this situation?

After IOS 26 beta 2 installation in my iphone 13, I can't do a screenshot using assistivetouch nor touch on back.
