Hi, I want to detect if there is a fullscreen window on each screen. _AXUIElementGetWindow and kAXFullscreenAttribute methods work, but I have to be in a non-sandbox environment to use them. Is there any other way that also works? I don't think it's enough to judge if it's fullscreen by comparing the window size to the screen size, since it doesn't work on MacBook with notch, or the menu bar is set to 'auto-hide'. Thanks.

Just installed iOS 18 Beta 3. I am seeing my AccessibilityUIServer using the microphone and this is causing no notification sounds, inability to use Siri by voice and volume is grayed out. If I start to play anything with sound AccessibilityUIServer releases the microphone and I am able to use the app. Calls still work since AccessibilityUIServer will release and the phone will ring. Feed back ID is FB14241838.

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 checked the latest release notes for latest beta, and there doesn't seem to be a fix for this. But basically, the vibrations that you receive for when you long press a message to react, or hold down on an app in Home Screen, seem to stop working after a while. This issue is reoccurring randomly. Steps to repro: Not fully sure on this, but I'm on iPhone 16 pro max and running the iOS 18.3 dev beta described in the title. I have the default haptics enabled in which you receive a vibration when you long press on a message in iMessage or Messenger, and also when you long press on an app on the Home Screen. These seem to stop working, along with any other vibrations apart from calls and notifications) after a while. The only workaround is to restart the iPhone entirely. anyone else face the same?

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...

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.

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!

Hi Team, We are integrating SwiftUI's Charts BarMark, UI looks good but when we try setting up custom ADA it doesn't reflect/override the accessibility label/value we set manually. Is it iOS defect or is there any workaround? Thanks in advance. Sample: Chart(data) { BarMark( x: .value("Category", $0.department), y: .value("Profit", $0.profit) ) .foregroundStyle(by: .value("Product Category", $0.productCategory)) .accessibilityIdentifier("BarMark") .accessibilityLabel("Dep: \($0.department)") .accessibilityValue("Profile: \($0.profit) Category: \($0.productCategory)") }

Question: Hi everyone, I'm developing a Vision Pro app using the latest visionOS 2, and I've encountered some issues with the new hand gestures introduced in this update. My app is designed to display a UI element when a user's palm is detected. However, the new hand gestures for navigating key functions like Home View, Control Center, and adjusting the volume are interfering with my app's functionality. What I'm Trying to Achieve Detect when a user's palm is open and display a UI element. Ensure that my app's custom hand gestures are not disturbed by the new default gestures in visionOS 2. Problem The new hand gestures in visionOS 2 (such as those for Home View, Control Center, and volume adjustment) are activating while my app is open, causing disruptions to my app's functionality. I want to disable these system-level gestures when my app is running.

It is outrageous that Apple continue to fail to implement the Fullscreen API web standard for web apps on iPhone only, which is so important to accessibility and web app functionality. The only possible reason for this block is commercial: to promote iOS apps instead of browser based web apps. To quote a client from a major agency just now - a typical enquiry : We value accessibility greatly, and we noticed that the embedded player is missing a full screen button on iPhone. Everything else works perfectly fine, including a full screen button that appears on the mobile webpage on android devices. Is there any way we can include a button to enable full screen view for our viewers in your player that are going to watch it on iOS devices? To which, as usual, we have to reply: Apple unfortunately block fullscreen mode from being used with all web applications on iPhone. Apple will allow this to be displayed fullscreen on MacBooks and iPads, but currently not on on iPhone - so we have to hide the fullscreen button there. So fullscreen works on all devices and browsers apart from on iPhone. As you've seen with Android, all other devices and browsers follow the universal 'Fullscreen API' web standard to allow full screen. You're probably familiar with seeing the fullscreen button on normal linear videos on iPhone. These use Apple's native video player, which doesn't let buttons and scripts be used on top of it - just a single video, not an interactive web application. Our player looks like a video player but it is actually a web app combining multiple different video clips connected together by code and styling. They block it on iPhones for reasons known only to them, but the assumption is that it is to incentivise people to make iOS apps instead of web apps. The web development community is hopeful that Apple will change this unfortunate restriction soon, but we have been waiting a long time in vain. We have to send this to a lot of people. It's a very bad look for Apple. In less than a month it will be 2025. We have been waiting years for this. The web standard documentation showing universal support on other devices and browsers is here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fullscreen_API This is not acceptable. It is time for Apple to stop blocking this important accessibility web standard for commercial reasons - only on iPhone. To whoever is in charge of these decisions in the Safari/Webkit team: Please just enable Fullscreen API for web apps on iPhone as soon as possible.

Hello, I am working on a Braille keyboard by using HID approach. Current the device works with iPhone 11 and SE3. However, when tested in iPhone 6s with iOS 15, although the device can be connected and recognized as Braille device in VoiceOver screen, the phone shows no response to key press report. Would there be any requirement at points such as HID descriptor for iPhone 6s support on Braille device? If iPhone 6s does not support such devices, what is the minimum system requirements? Thank you!

We need the pinned messages to be size customizable.

I have an issue in my app when it is used together with the assistive access feature. For authentication, we are using the capacitor firebase authentication plugin (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@capacitor-firebase/authentication) which enables users to login via apple (FirebaseAuthentication.signInWithApple(...)), google (FirebaseAuthentication.signInWithGoogle(...)), or email. Works just fine. However, when the assistive access feature is enabled, the login fails for apple ("The operation couldn't be completed. com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError error 1000) and google ("The user canceled the sign-in flow). It seems like the popups for sign-in are blocked and therefore an error is returned immediately. The popups may be blocked by assistive access, causing the capacitor plugin to be unable to authenticate. I have tested this on my iPhone 12 Pro using iOS 17.7 I would appreciate any suggestions to handle this issue!

Hope it's okay to post here - I haven't gotten resolution anywhere else. Apple's iOs Live Captions is supposed to translate speech into written text either on the phone (works like a charm!) or via microphone (think meeting in a conference room). Microphone doesn't work anywhere, anytime on a new iPhone 14 purchased November 2024. Anyone out there want to fix this and help a lot of people who have trouble hearing? I'm part of an entire generation that didn't know we were supposed to protect our hearing at concerts and clubs and worse, thought it was cool to snag a spot by the speakers...

Our company enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an organization in July 2024. Everything was fine for several months, but in early January 2025, our developer noticed that the certificates were missing. When we logged into our developer account, we were shocked to see a page prompting us to “Enroll Today”—as if we had never joined in the first place. Clicking the enrollment button led us to an error page stating we cannot enroll. We immediately reached out to Apple Developer Support via email, but despite multiple attempts, we received no response. Strangely, our apps remain live on the App Store, App Store Connect functions as usual, and we continue receiving payments every month. However, we are completely blocked from developing and releasing updates. Today, I managed to reach Apple by phone. After being transferred to a senior representative, I was told they couldn’t tell me why this was happening. They only confirmed that a request had been made and that I should “wait.” That’s it—no explanation, no timeline, nothing. While it’s somewhat reassuring that they acknowledge the issue, I’ve already seen other developers with the same problem go unanswered for months. My suspicion? This account might be linked to an individual developer account from way back in 2015 when Apple’s registration process was far less strict. Could that be the issue? No idea—because Apple won’t say a word. Meanwhile, both of our apps have been exposed to several bugs, and customers are waiting for updates. If there’s still no response from Apple, I have no choice but to register a new account—purely to continue supporting our users. CASE ID: 102508598957

Still waiting for 32 hours and nothing … shame this still on and no go through

Hello everyone :) For a project application we try to create a QR code that leads the user to the Software Update settings on iPhone after scanning to improve the accessibility for people who are not experienced in using smartphones. On iOS 18.0.1 I see that using App-prefs: opens the settings app which is a good starting point. Furthermore, using e.g. App-prefs:com.apple.MobileSMS directs the user to the Settings of the Messages app. But things like App-prefs:root=SoftwareUpdate don't work. That's why I wanted to kindly ask, if someone may have other ideas or knows what the exact URL might be for opening the Software Update settings or at least the General settings (App-prefs:root=General doesn't work). If anyone has insights or can share the exact URL scheme for this purpose, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you so much!
