I downloaded the public beta 5 of iOS 26 and I no longer receive updates for either the public beta or the developer beta I can no longer update my iPhone.

ICEcard app is "Emergency as a Service" platform. One of the key feature is to know about primary info, health info, or in case missing child , elderly using Face scan of registered user of app via another registered user of ICEcard app. App was working fine but last 2-3 week back got issue reported of app getting closed as soon Face scan option is selected. to simulate issue > register > open face scan icon at bottom home screen> select any of option accident or health issue or information >> app closes immediately.

I am trying to send an anonymous XPC listener endpoint to my daemon from user context in order to be able to do some bidirectional XPC. I was trying to use the new XPCListener and XPCSession objects and the easiest method I figured was using the Codable version of the send() methods, in which I wanted to send the XPCEndpoint object - alongside the name of the anonymous endpoint (because I want to have more XPCEndpoints sent over, so I want to be able to identify them. However, trying to manually encode XPCEndpoint throws an exception: ERROR: Missing CodingUserInfoKey CodingUserInfoKey(rawValue: "_XPCCodable") Here is a simple command-line tool reproducing the issue: import Foundation import XPC let listener = try XPCListener(service: "mach-service.xxx.yyy", incomingSessionHandler: { $0.accept(incomingMessageHandler: { (msg: XPCReceivedMessage) in return nil }) }) var endpoint = listener.endpoint do { let endpointData = try JSONEncoder().encode(endpoint) print("EndpointData object: \(endpointData.count) bytes") } catch let error { print("ERROR: \(error)") } Wrapping my object into an XPCDictionary, then adding multiple keys alongside an "endpoint" key with the XPCEndpoint as value works, but XPCDictionaries are less ideal - they don't even support vanilla Data objects, only ones converted to an xpc_object_t with xpc_data_* functions Is this expected behavior? I shouldn't encode an XPCEndpoint myself? I am using the latest Xcode 26.0 beta, with deployment target of macOS 15.1, running on macOS 15.5. (Btw it's also incorrect that this XPCEndpoint API is available from macOS 15.0 - it cannot be found in Xcode 15.4 under macOS 15.5. At the very best it's backDeployed but this isn't mentioned in its public declaration.)

The home AppIcon appears as it should but in settings I get the generic icon. I tried: giving the extension its own assets and AppIcon asset. giving the main app assets 2 targets, itself AND the extension setting AppIcon appearances to "none" and iOS "all sizes" and providing 29pt and the other sizes. Adding to info.plist and specifying "CFBundleIconFiles" Yes, nuked derived data, switched off phone, everything. Starting with just the standard 1024×1024 AppIcon (expecting Xcode to auto-generate all slices, including 29pt for Settings). It didn’t — Settings still shows the generic gear. Question: What should I do to make the extension’s icon show up in Settings? Environment • Xcode: 16.4 (16F6) • iOS: 18.5 (device) • Targets: iOS app + Call Directory extension • App icon pipeline: asset catalog (single-size initially, now legacy grid)

I am working on enabling app clip experience for one of our products, where App X would use default appclip url of App Y to launch an experiences using UIApplication.shared.open(defaultAppclipUrl). Im successfully able to build and submit to appstore by testing via local expereince, but later noticed a strange behaviour in production without local expereince setup, where tapping a button in App X (with default appclip url) fails to launch the appclip for the first time but loads fine from the second try. I learned that in background Apple would make a API call to fetch details about app clip availability in store and then proceed to launch app clip locally, hence the delay->timeout->failure for first tap. Once the invocation starts working it would be consistent. After couple of minutes of break say 20m, it again fails for 1st time. I'm assuming that iOS is invalidating the cache on device regarding availability of appclip in store and hence the API call is made again and there is a delay and failure. can you please help us with this issue.

Hello, I am developing a messaging filtering app (F-Secre) that includes a Message Filter Extension. The extension correctly identifies and filters spam SMS/iMessage. In iOS 18, when a message was filtered into the Junk folder, the Messages app would correctly display a label beneath it indicating it was filtered by our product, e.g., “Junk filtered by F-Secre”. After updating to the iOS 26 beta (26.0 (23A5330a)), the filtering functionality itself still works—messages are correctly moved to the Junk folder. However, the branding attribution ("filtered by F-Secre") is now missing. The message appears in the Junk folder with no indication of which extension filtered it. This is a regression in user experience, as it removes visibility and credit for our app's work and might confuse users about whether the filtering system is active.

The alarms that I am scheduling using alarmKit is not reliable at all, especially in beta 8 (Used to have this issue in previous betas, But they were inconsistent). The alarm fires anywhere after 5 mins to 45 mins from the actual scheduled time. I'll share the relevant code block here in case if it is me who is doing something wrong. This code block doesn't throw any errors and I am also able to see the scheduled alarms when I query them. The issue is with alarms not firing on the specified time let alert = AlarmPresentation.Alert( title: "Wakey Wakey!", stopButton: .init(text: "stop", textColor: .red, systemImageName: "stop.fill") ) let presentation = AlarmPresentation(alert: alert) let attributes = AlarmAttributes<CountDownAttribute>( presentation: presentation, metadata: .init(), tintColor: .orange ) let schedule = Alarm.Schedule.fixed(alarmTime) let config = AlarmManager.AlarmConfiguration( schedule: schedule, attributes: attributes ) let id = UUID() do { let alarm = try await AlarmManager.shared.schedule(id: id, configuration: config) print("Alarm set successfully for \(alarmTime) - \(alarm)") } catch { print("Failed to schedule alarm: \(error)") }

Hi Anyone had luck to make EnergyKit work yet? Using Xcode 26 (latest beta), physical iPhone with the latest iOS26 beta.

We appreciate your suggestion to use the Apple Developer Forums. However, we must respectfully request further escalation of this issue beyond the forums for several critical reasons: Severity and Scope: This is not a general development discussion topic. We are facing a massive, reproducible performance issue on iOS 16 that renders devices unresponsive, requiring factory resets or DFU restores. This goes far beyond typical app bugs and points to a potential systemic issue in the OS's image handling. Insufficiency of Forum Support: While the forums are a valuable resource for community advice, they cannot provide the official, in-depth technical diagnosis from Apple engineers that this situation demands. Our users' devices are being bricked by an app update that passed App Review, and we require clarity on the root cause to prevent further damage and restore user trust. Code-Level Support Eligibility: As members of the Apple Developer Program, we believe our issue falls under the purview of Code-Level Support, as described on the Apple Developer website 9. Our problem involves "building or running software" and requires expertise in Apple's frameworks and hardware-level image rendering APIs. We request that our case be forwarded to that specialized team. To reiterate the core problem: Our update introduced 1024x1026 JPEG assets into the Asset Catalog. On iOS 16, this causes severe overheating, freezing, and device unresponsiveness. Replacing them with PNGs completely resolves the issue. This suggests a potentially serious regression in iOS 16's JPEG decoding or memory management pipeline. We prepared to provide a sample project that demonstrates the issue if required. Our case number is 102678393572. We urgently need to understand why this happens at the OS level to ensure our app is safe and to contribute to the stability of the iOS platform. Please escalate this case to the appropriate technical team for a detailed investigation. Sincerely,

I want to add different badge indicators on the dock bar based on the different states of the application. How can I do this?

I investigated what network interface names are assigned to carrier networks on a dual SIM iPhone by examining the output of getifaddrs(). (An part of the program used for this is provided below.) ////////////// struct ifaddrs *interfaces = NULL; struct ifaddrs *an_interface = NULL; if (0 == getifaddrs(&interfaces)) { an_interface = interfaces; while (an_interface != NULL) { if( an_interface->ifa_addr->sa_family == AF_INET) { NSString* name = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:an_interface->ifa_name]; NSLog(@"Interface name is: %@", name); } an_interface = an_interface->ifa_next; } } freeifaddrs(interfaces); In this investigation, it appeared that the interface name for the sXGP SIM selected under "iPhone > Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data" was always "pdp_ip0". (A screenshot of "Cellular Data" is provided below. this is sample of sXGP selected )" [QUESTION] Is the SIM selected in Settings of iPhone always assigned to "pdp_ip0"? [BACKGROUND] I am developing a VoIP application and opening sockets by specifying IP addresses for communication. On a dual SIM iPhone, multiple networks (IP addresses) are visible. Therefore, I need to determine which network to use. My question is whether I can reliably make this decision based on the network interface name. If the SIM selected in Settings is always assigned to "pdp_ip0", I intend to open the socket using the IP address of "pdp_ip0". Alternatively, should I use a different method to select the appropriate network interface?

Hey! I'm trying to create an XPC messaging feature between my daemon and main application. I'm trying to use the new Swift low-level API available from macOS 14.0. The documentation is extremely confusing when looking at it from Swift: The xpc_listener_t type Seems to be something I shouldn't use in the Swift API, and would rather have to use XPCListener. Also, it appears to have no public API other than the xpc_listener_set_peer_code_signing_requirement function. Which would make it impossible to create this type. However, when going into xpc.h, one can see that there is an API in fact: API_AVAILABLE(macos(14.0), macCatalyst(17.0)) API_UNAVAILABLE(ios, tvos, watchos) XPC_EXPORT XPC_SWIFT_NOEXPORT XPC_RETURNS_RETAINED XPC_WARN_RESULT xpc_listener_t _Nullable xpc_listener_create(const char * service, dispatch_queue_t _Nullable target_queue, xpc_listener_create_flags_t flags, xpc_listener_incoming_session_handler_t incoming_session_handler, xpc_rich_error_t _Nullable * _Nullable error_out); which is a very unusual declaration - the first parameter for example shows up as Int8 type in Swift. Not to mention I haven't been able to create the next parameter, xpc_listener_create_flags_t at all, even though it seems to be a UInt64-based flag based on the C declaration, but passing UInt64(0) throws a compiler error. It really seems like something I shouldn't use from Swift. But then again, the extremely important security-related API mentioned above, xpc_listener_set_peer_code_signing_requirement can only take an xpc_listener_t object as a parameter, not an XPCListener type. There seems to be no conversion available between the two. However the documentation in the XPC framework seems to be telling the story of these two types being very equal, because of the following: The xpc_session_t type seemingly again has only deprecated methods mostly, the important one staying behind is xpc_session_set_peer_code_signing_requirement. However, this would again require the creation of an xpc_session_t object, for which in the XPC framework one will find declarations like: @available(macOS, introduced: 13.0, deprecated: 14.0, renamed: "XPCSession") @available(macCatalyst, introduced: 16.0, deprecated: 17.0, renamed: "XPCSession") @available(iOS, unavailable) @available(tvOS, unavailable) @available(watchOS, unavailable) public typealias xpc_session_t = OS_xpc_object plus basically all API of XPCSession being originally declared as xpc_session_* APIs and all of them having deprecated: 14.0, renamed: * marks. This is telling me xpc_session_t and XPCSession are in fact the same/same-ish. But again, there is seemingly no conversion between these two types. Which brings me to again being unable to create a code signing requirement for the XPCSession object. I've read some older forum posts, and I saw Apple Engineers admitting the code signing requirement APIs are missing from the new Swift APIs, however they seem to have been added in macOS 14.4 - although it appears to have been mistakenly added to the C-family functions, which have not been exposed to Swift correctly, because they still use the deprecated xpc_listener_t and xpc_session_t types. So my question is: what is going on here? :) Making XPC connections without a code signing requirement in 2025 seems like a no-go, so do I have to still stick with C - even though this new API seems to be focused on Swift?

Hello, I noticed the new entitlement in iOS 26 under LiveCommunicationKit: Preparing your app to be the default dialer app. My question is about eligibility: If a developer account is registered in the EU, can any app add the Default Dialer capability, or is it restricted only to apps that provide real calling/communication functionality (e.g., WhatsApp, Telegram, Skype)? If granted, does this capability allow the app to make/receive cellular calls and access call history, or is it limited only to VoIP-style scenarios through CallKit integration? What are the minimum functionalities required to support this feature (e.g., having a dial pad, call history screen, etc.)? Why must the developer account be registered in the EU to use this entitlement? Thanks in advance for the clarification!

I put a test.mp3 (30 sec) file into the App Bundle. I scheduled an AlarmKit alarm with the file name test.mp3. The custom sound plays ✅ I copied the file from the App Bundle to Library/Sounds/test2.mp3. I scheduled an AlarmKit alarm with the file name test2.mp3. Instead of playing the custom sound, it falls back to the default sound ❌ According to the documentation, sounds placed in Library/Sounds should be playable: I filed report FB19779004 on August 20, but haven’t received any response yet. This functionality is critical for our use case, so could you please let me know whether this is expected to be fixed soon, or if I’m misunderstanding the intended behavior?

Hi everyone, on iOS, when a VoIP call arrives and the user accepts it from the lock screen (after unlocking with Face ID/Touch ID), is there any way to automatically bring my app to the foreground and show the in-app call screen, instead of staying in the system CallKit UI?

From some moment of time, Universal Links stopped working for our app. As per my understanding, application reinstall or update caused system to fetch AASA file from CDN, which started to reply with 404 for our domain (https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/app.link.digidentity.eu).

I've been trying to understand what kind of UX is available if my app is using the default-dialer capability. I have found https://developer.apple.com/documentation/livecommunicationkit/preparing-your-app-to-be-the-default-dialer-app and I am in the EU. On android I built the UX I want and it's quite neat, so now I'm trying to work. out what I can get on iOS. Because the product is kind of worthless with just android. I have built a simple dialer ux with a numberpad, contact lookup etc. Then when the user presses the Call button does it have to pop up the system prompt "Call number"? Does it have to swap over to the system ui for the actual call? So there's no way to show information about the call, during the call? Or am I using the frameworks incorrectly? I am very new to iOS development. TrueCaller and others show validation, but as I understand it they pre-fetch all the data, I can't do that.
