I am seeing an interesting behavior on iOS 16.4+ when I set NEVPNProtocol includeAllNetworks flag to TRUE as part of my tunnels's saved preferences. After my packet tunnel provider starts up and goes through the usual setup of adding routes, where let's say we just just add NEIPv4Route.default() to route everything and eventually setting via: setTunnelNetworkSettings. Any subsequent calls to cancelTunnelWithError will cause the phone to get into a state where the tunnel provider goes away but it appears that my routes did not properly clean up, essentially causing a device to get into a state where all network traffic is now dead. The only way to recover is to go into OS Settings -> VPN and change selected profile to some other one, or just remove ours and go through installation again. It appears to only be happening on iOS 16.4+ devices, any previous versions clean up just fine. Curious if anyone has seen such behavior? Thanks in advance.

With the new interactive widgets brought by iOS 17, is it possible to indicate that an action (button tap or toggle use) has been triggered by firing an Haptic feedback to the user?

How in interactive widgets in ios 17 to prevent the opening of the application by clicking on the widget? Sometimes the user may miss the button and opening the application is inappropriate in this case

I have upgrade to Mac OS 14 and my smart card reader quit working. Works in safe mode and while booting up. Then stops functioning. Allow Accessories to connect is not visible. However, I can search for the function but not select it. MacBook Air M1, Sonoma Beta.

I would like to create an Apple Watch only app that queries data such as blood oxygenation, heart varibility, number of steps, energy consumed, and other data of a similar nature recorded over the past month and performs calculations on them. I read from the HealthKit documentation that Apple Watch synchronizes data with iPhone and periodically deletes older data, and that I can get the date from which the data is available with earliestPermittedSampleDate(). Is there a risk that in general, by making queries to retrieve data up to a month old, the data will no longer be available? I need the app to work properly without needing an iPhone.

Hi all, Does anyone know the dimensions of screenshots from Vision Pro? Thanks

Planning to use 3D video in "windows" and "volumes" in my visionOS app, what's the easiest method to capture 3D video for this need? Thanks and cheers!

Second attempt to publish the Mac version of my App, but it was rejected again due to the same error: 'Library missing'. The library IS included with the build. The extracted .app from .xcarchive runs without a problem on different machines, both M1 and Intel. So, I don't know what's wrong. Can somebody please help me? I can provide the complete .ips from Apple if needed. { "code": 1, "flags": 518, "namespace": "DYLD", "indicator": "Library missing", "details": [ "(terminated at launch; ignore backtrace)" ], "reasons": [ "Library not loaded: @rpath/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit", "Referenced from: <85BA8613-0157-3B28-99AF-E73F1E579B72> /Applications/TiDesigner.app/Contents/MacOS/TiDesigner", "Reason: tried: '/usr/lib/swift/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit' (no such file, not in dyld cache), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/usr/lib/swift/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit' (no such file), '/usr/lib/swift/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit' (no such file, not in dyld cache), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/usr/lib/swift/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit' (no such file), '/System/Library/Frameworks/TitaniumKit.framework/Versions/A/TitaniumKit' (no such file, not in dyld cache), (security policy does not allow @ path expansion)" ] }

Hi, I would like to learn how to create custom materials using Shader Graph in Reality Composer Pro. I would like to know more about Shader Graph in general, including node descriptions and how the material's display changes when nodes are connected. However, I cannot find a manual for Shader Graph in Reality Composer Pro. This leaves me totally clueless on how to create custom materials. Thanks.

Hello, When an iOS app runs on Vision Pro in compatible mode, is there a flag such as isiOSAppOnVision to determine the underlying OS at runtime? Just like the ProcessInfo.isiOSAppOnMac. It will be useful to optimize the app for visionOS. Already checked but not useful: #if os(xrOS) does not work in compatible mode since no code is recompiled. UIDevice.userInterfaceIdiom returns .pad instead of .reality. Thanks.

I'd like to allow the speech synthesizer to play on the device speaker while simultaneously mixing with a phone call. I've worked with a number of different configurations but am unable to find a configuration that achieves the functionality I am trying to achieve - or allows mixing with a phone call at all. There is a flag: mixToTelephonyUplink that seems to suggest that at least some mixing with a phone call is possible using the speech synthesizer, but I'm currently unable to find almost any documentation about this flag besides basic API docs. I've had some some luck at least getting the synthesizer to always play to the speaker with the following audio session configuration - but the sound never is mixed with a phone call. Instead, it is ducked and muted while the phone call takes place. I've tried quite a few configuration combinations for the category and overrides, but nothings seems to work quite as I'd expect it to. synthesizer.mixToTelephonyUplink = true try? audioSession.setCategory(.playback, mode: .voicePrompt, options: [.mixWithOthers, .defaultToSpeaker]) try? audioSession.setActive(true, options: []) try? audioSession.overrideOutputAudioPort(.speaker) Is there some kind of documentation for this that's off the beaten path that I'm somehow missing? I'm going to continue with guess and check, but I'm starting to think this flag - and the functionality it implies, actually wasn't ever fully implemented.

Hi everyone, I have a Macbook Air M1 and the Mac runs fine. For work needs, I need to use the new Sonoma operating system on an external drive. Now here are the problems. The operating system is installed correctly so I don't think that could be the problem. It happens that if I attach the external disk to the Belkin HUB, the new operating system starts without problems, if instead I try to attach the SSD to the Macbook Air USB ports, the operating system does not start, so I am forced to use Sonoma only with the hub attached. I thought it could reset the PRAM or the SMC but from the Apple forum, it seems that Macbooks with M1 processors, have neither PRAM nor SMC. Is there anything I can do ? Thank you all, Vincent

Hi. After the recent update of Ventura to 13.4 and Big Sur to 11.7.7 all of a sudden "launchctl setenv" returns the following errors. Could not set environment: 150: Operation not permitted while System Integrity Protection is engaged Is there any workaround to fix this?

I'm trying to do the Happy Beam demo. I was wondering if I could use my iPhone to handle hand tracking?

We activate our camera extension from host application and wait for user to allow access it in System Settings. Once our host application receives notification camera extension is ready to be used we want to communicate with the extension. When we enumerate AVCaptureDevices or try to find newly added device using CMIOObjectGetPropertyData for property kCMIOHardwarePropertyDevices, our camera extension is not shown. Once we stop and restart host application camera extension is shown as expected, issue only happens once right after activating the extension. Looks like capture devices are not refreshed for host application after camera extension is activated and approved. Is there a way to force system to refresh cameras? Or any other ideas to make extension immediately visible for host application without relaunching it?

I'm working on an app that has the following structure: MyApp MyWidgetExtension MyWatchKitApp -- MyWatchKitAppExtension ---- MyWatchKitAppWidgetExtension Both MyWidgetExtension and MyWatchKitAppWidgetExtension were developed using a shared MyWidgetBundle defined as follows: @main struct MyWidgetBundle : WidgetBundle However, I'm running into an issue when attempting to run this on devices with iOS 14. I get an error stating "App extensions must define either NSExtensionMainStoryboard or NSExtensionPrincipalClass keys in the NSExtension dictionary in their Info.plist." Interestingly, if I remove MyWatchKitAppWidgetExtension, the app installs just fine. But, if I add NSExtensionPrincipalClass or NSExtensionMainStoryboard, when I try to distribute the app to TestFlight, I receive an error stating "Unexpected key NSExtensionPrincipalClass found in extension Info.plist". I'm at a loss as to how to resolve this issue. Does anyone have any suggestions or insights?

In the session around 19:15, the ornament for the app is displayed with fade animation. How can I achieve this? I can control the visibility using ornament(visibility:attachmentAnchor:contentAlignment:ornament:) with .visible or .hidden, but no animation. Adding .transition to the content view also does have no effect.

In my app I get a UIImage for a PHAsset via PHImageManager.requestImage(for:targetSize:contentMode:options:resultHandler:). I directly display that image in a UIImageView that has preferredImageDynamicRange set to .high. The problem is I do not see the high dynamic range. I see the HDRDemo23 sample code uses PhotosPicker to get a UIImage from Data through UIImageReader whose config enables prefersHighDynamicRange. Is there a way to support HDR when using the Photos APIs to request display images? And is there support for PHLivePhoto displayed in PHLivePhotoView retrieved via PHImageManager.requestLivePhoto?

To be able to paire a matter device on ios I need to installed on my iPhone the matter client developper profile as indicate on the apple documentation Adding Matter support to your ecosystem | Apple Developer Documentation (To test your app on the iOS or macOS device that initiates the pairing, download the developer profile now, then install it.) When I do that it works perfectly. Otherwise the documentation says that the profile is only needed for development but when I want to use my app from the apple store (validate by Apple) and when I remove the profile it doesn't work anymore. What do I have to do to paire Matter device on iphone without the Matter client developer profile.

Hi! I'm working on an iOS Safari extension that has a ServiceWorker. Lately we've noticed that this ServiceWorker seems to get killed seemingly at random, and there are no logs or crash reports to tell us what happened. I'm hypothesizing that iOS might be shutting down Safari ServiceWorkers when the ProcessInfo.thermalState approaches .serious. I have circumstantial evidence that our ServiceWorker tends to get killed more often at higher levels of thermalState but can't yet say conclusively that this is the case. I can't find any direct evidence of this on internet searches either. Is anyone able to shed light onto this topic? The specific symptoms are: ServiceWorker stops, and the menu entry for its console window no longer appears on macOS Safari. No crash logs via Xcode or Sentry, and no Console messages as far as we could tell (caveat: MobileSafari generates a LOT of messages! We might have missed it.) If attached via debugger, the native part of our extension just disappears and the debugger loses connection with no error message. ServiceWorker no longer works for the lifetime of the Safari process. Sometimes, when we kill Safari and restart, we can get the ServiceWorker back. This usually requires toggling our extension's "enabled" state in system settings. In some cases, even killing/relaunching Safari and toggling the system setting doesn't bring our ServiceWorker back. I'm hypothesizing right now that this happens when the thermal state is high. I've tried simulating a serious/critical thermal state in the Xcode Devices window, but couldn't repro the ServiceWorker problem. I don't know if that setting affects the whole system, though, or just our own apps. Help appreciated! Yuna
