I recently encountered an issue with Xcode 16.2 while attempting to integrate Settings.bundle into a new app. I added Settings.bundle as a new file (using the provided template), but when I ran the app (the default "Hello World" project), the expected three default controls (Name, Enabled, Slider) did not appear in the app's settings. To troubleshoot, I downgraded my system to macOS Sonoma 14.7.2 and Xcode 15.4 (on a 2023 Mac Mini, M2). After this downgrade, everything worked as expected. With a new project, adding Settings.bundle, and running the app, the settings entry for the app appeared, including the three default fields. This behavior suggests a potential issue or incompatibility with Xcode 16.2.

Our app's widget often doesn't show up in the "Widget Gallery". Lots of our users complain about this issue. They can't see the widget in widget gallery after opening the app. In some cases, the widget does not appear in the widget gallery even after turning the phone off and on. I saw in another question that this is a bug. This bug will be fixed someday, but is there anything we can do before that?

Hello, I want to echo the DeviceActivityReport "concurrency" problems flagged in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/720549, and ask a related question. (Thanks to Kmart and other Apple dev support folks who have been monitoring these forums and responding diligently.) I would like to display daily and weekly stats in the same view, broken down by specific apps (as in the native Screen Time). However, instantiating multiple DeviceActivityReport objects with different filters and/or different contexts leads to confusion, where the two views will incorrectly and intermittently swap data or duplicate data where it shouldn't (seemingly upon some interval when the extension provides fresh data). There isn't documentation on how to display multiple reports at once. Is the idea that logic for multiple reports should be embedded within the extension itself in the makeConfiguration() function and there should only be a single DeviceActivityReport in the main App, or is this a bug? Even with a single DeviceActivityReport, I run into inconsistencies where the View provided by the extension takes multiple seconds to load or fails to load altogether. The behavior seems random...I will build the application with the same code multiple times and see different behavior each time. Finally, a plug for better support in the Simulator for the entire set of Screen Time APIs. Thanks!

Hello. I bought a new Iphone 16, 2 days ago in my store, but when I checked it at home, it turned out that it was installed using the Telia Sweden ( Remote Management System ). Can someone help me remove this Telia RMS system from my smartphone so that it is not configured for Telia during setup? Since their configurator blocks my smartphone, with a note - Lost Iphone. The device has been blocked by Telia. I have been using Apple equipment for 10 years, I have phones and tablets. I need help

Here is a post to gather findings in case anyone found out what this new API does.

Hi Team, We are encountering issues while implementing the live translation feature in our VoIP application using CallKit on iOS 26.0. Specifically, we are attempting to use the CXSetTranslatingCallAction transaction to enable translation programmatically during an active call. However, executing this transaction results in the following error: "Couldn't communicate with a helper application." This occurs consistently when we attempt to trigger the translation setup without user interaction. We are seeking clarification on the following points: Is it possible to enable CallKit's live translation feature using CXSetTranslatingCallAction purely programmatically, without requiring the user to interact with the system-provided Call UI? What does the above error indicate in the context of CXSetTranslatingCallAction? Are there specific conditions, entitlements, or background service requirements that must be fulfilled to communicate with CallKit? Code snippet: let translationAction = CXSetTranslatingCallAction(call: callUUID, isTranslating: true, localLocale: Locale.init(identifier: "es-ES"), remoteLocale: Locale(identifier: "en-US")) let transaction = CXTransaction(action: translationAction) callController.request(transaction) We would deeply appreciate any guidance you can provide regarding the feasibility of our approach and how to address this error. Thank you for your support.

I am trying to follow the guidance for testing a Local Experience, as listed in the Testing Your App Clip’s Launch Experience - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/app_clips/testing_your_app_clip_s_launch_experience documentation. I have successfully created my App Clip target, and can confirm that running the App Clip on my device does launch the App Clip app as I expected. Further, I can successfully test the App Clip on device, by setting the _XCAppClipURL argument in the App Clip's scheme. I would like to test a Local Experience. The documentation states that for testing Local Experiences; To test your app clip’s invocation with a local experience, you don’t need to add the Associated Domains Entitlement, make changes to the Apple App Site Association file on your web server, or create an app clip experience for testing in TestFlight. Therefore, I should be able to configure a Local Experience with any desired domain in Settings -> Developer -> Local Experience, generate a QR code or NFC tag with that same URL, and the App Clip experience should appear. I have taken the following steps; Built and run my App Clip on my local device. In Settings -> Developer -> Local Experience, I have registered a new experience using a URL prefix https://somewebsite.com Set my Bundle ID to com.mycompany.myapp.Clip, which exactly matches the Bundle Identifier, as listed in Xcode, under my App Clip target. Generated a QR code which directs me to https://somewebsite.com In theory, I believe I should be able to open the Camera app on my device, point the camera at the QR code, and the App Clip experience should appear. However, I received mixed experiences. 50% of the time, I receive a pop-up directing me to open https://somewebsite.com in Safari, the other 50% of the time, no banner or action occurs whatsoever. Is this an issue anyone has faced before, or have I pursued these steps out of order?

PLATFORM AND VERSION iOS Development environment: Xcode 16.2, macOS 15.5 Run-time configuration: iOS 18 DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM Our app (a VoIP and messaging app) has been experiencing a crash when running in the background for long periods of time (a couple of days) while receiving calls, and message notifications. If the app is not receiving notifications, we don't get any crashes while it runs in the background. It is worth mentioning that we have several pushes that are background pushes and they could happen depending on the outcome of an incoming call. We have the two pushes: incoming call bye: let the app know that the calling end hanged up the call. incoming call answered: lets the app know that another device (with the same shared number) answered the call (web app, Android). Those pushes are delivered within 30 seconds after the call starts. I assume that since the app was awakened by a VoIP push, those background notification won't count towards the iOS restriction of not getting too many background pushes: "The number of background notifications allowed by the system depends on current conditions, but don’t try to send more than two or three per hour." Let me know if the above assumption is not accurate. I don't see details in the crash report (such as a "Termination Description") that could guide me to address the issue. So I would appreciate if you can give me some insight on what could be causing this. Here is part of the crash report: Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGKILL) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000 Termination Reason: FRONTBOARD 0xbaadca11 <RBSTerminateContext| domain:10 code:0xBAADCA11 explanation: reportType:CrashLog maxTerminationResistance:Interactive> Triggered by Thread: 0 Thread 0 name: Thread 0 Crashed: 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001dda93ce4 mach_msg2_trap + 8 1 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001dda9739c mach_msg2_internal + 76 (mach_msg.c:201) 2 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001dda972b8 mach_msg_overwrite + 428 (mach_msg.c:0) 3 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001dda97100 mach_msg + 24 (mach_msg.c:323) 4 CoreFoundation 0x000000018c886900 __CFRunLoopServiceMachPort + 160 (CFRunLoop.c:2637) 5 CoreFoundation 0x000000018c8851f0 __CFRunLoopRun + 1208 (CFRunLoop.c:3021) 6 CoreFoundation 0x000000018c886c3c CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 572 (CFRunLoop.c:3434) 7 GraphicsServices 0x00000001d9a65454 GSEventRunModal + 168 (GSEvent.c:2196) 8 UIKitCore 0x000000018f299274 -[UIApplication run] + 816 (UIApplication.m:3845) 9 UIKitCore 0x000000018f264a28 UIApplicationMain + 336 (UIApplication.m:5540) 10 SwiftUI 0x00000001913a97a4 closure #1 in KitRendererCommon(:) + 168 (UIKitApp.swift:68) 11 SwiftUI 0x00000001910af01c runApp(_:) + 112 (UIKitApp.swift:16) 12 SwiftUI 0x00000001910aeed0 static App.main() + 180 (App.swift:136) 13 TheApp Business 0x0000000100686028 static TheApp_BusinessApp.$main() + 52 (TheApp_Business.swift:0) 14 TheApp Business 0x0000000100686028 main + 64 15 dyld 0x00000001b375bf08 start + 6040 (dyldMain.cpp:1450) STEPS TO REPRODUCE Open the app. Leave the app running in the background while it is receiving notifications (VoIP or messages).

Hello, I’ve implemented a feature in my app using AppIntent. When the app is not running in the background and is launched for the first time via a shortcut, both application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: and applicationWillEnterForeground: are called. Normally, on the first launch, applicationWillEnterForeground: is not invoked. However, this behavior seems to occur only when the app is launched through a shortcut. I’d like to understand why applicationWillEnterForeground: is being called in this scenario. For reference, the AppIntent has openAppWhenRun set to true. Thank you in advance for your help!

App includes a functionality based on each Timezone. As i have fetched some of the Timezone values got some mismatched values compared to actual. e.g: America/Denver values is -6 but got -5 Need support regarding fixing this issue.

Hi, I have a released screentime app ScreenZen. The last few days I've seen a disturbing spike in bug reports coming from people with 17.4.1 and 17.5.1 phones with no update to the app itself. People reported they saw the issue immediately after updating their iOS version. Unfortunately it is not replicable on all phones with those versions, so we haven't been able to replicate it on our test phones. It appears the issue is the ApplicationToken passed into ShieldActionExtension and ShieldConfigurationExtension does not match any of the ApplicationTokens that the user selected to block through FamilyControls. (The selected ApplicationTokens are being loaded through a group UserDefaults and they are indeed being loaded in the ShieldActionExtension in the bug reports).This is preventing the app from loading the correct settings and handling the blocking accordingly. I am trying to isolate this better with a new release with better logging, but would appreciate any help on this issue.

I am testing App Clip on Testflight to show App Clip Card but it only shows a white Card with the message: “This app clip is not currently available in your country or region” (if using Local Expreriences, it shows normally) I have fully installed apple-app-site-association, App Clip Experience, Domain URL Status also validated ... don't understand why, is the app "Redy For Sale" new to show the Card?. I want to let customers test show App Clip Card without using Local Expreriences on Testflight If anyone knows, please help, thank you.

We are looking to setup domain-bound codes for our app and need to add the associated domain file to our website. We currently do not use Universal Links or Password AutoFill. We have looked at the documentation but are not sure of what the contents of the association file should be to enable domain-bound codes if you are not using Universal Links or Password AutoFill. Can any assistance be provided?

LSSetDefaultHandlerForURLScheme is flagged as deprecated, but it isn't clear to me (very much not a frequent macOS developer) what the alternative is. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I have an iOS app that includes a local Swift package. This Swift package contains some .plist files added as resources. The package also depends on an XCFramework. I want to read these .plist files from within the XCFramework. What I’d like to know is: Is this a common or recommended approach—having resources in a Swift package and accessing them from an XCFramework? Previously, I had the .plist files added directly to the main app target, and accessing them from the XCFramework felt straightforward. With the new setup, I’m trying to determine whether this method (placing resources in a Swift package and accessing them from an XCFramework) is considered good practice. For context: I am currently able to read the .plist files from the XCFramework by passing Bundle.module through one of the APIs exposed by the XCFramework.

I am trying to get universal links to work in our app Firefox iOS The Problem: I am not able to get universal links to work for our release app or beta app scheme locally or with a TestFlight build. I am able to get it working on our development scheme with a locally hosted app site association file. I also was able to get it working using our development scheme but setting the bundle id to the release app bundle id. I also built a demo app with the release app id and the release app development certificate. It succeeded there as well. Implementation Steps: Added associated domains entitlement to the production and beta schemes for our main app target (No associated domains entitlements or capabilities added for any extensions) Confirmed that the bundle ids associated with these schemes have the associated domains capability Added applinks:blog.mozilla.org to associated domains list Confirmed in code that user activities are being handled via SceneDelegate.swift Steps to Debug: I have gone through and validated every step in the provided Universal Link Debugging. All were successful: Associated Domains Development -> Diagnostics: Opens Installed App Validate AASA host and applinks match curl -v https://blog.mozilla.org/.well-known/apple-app-site-association returns the expected json file swcutil dl correctly downloads the AASA blob swcutil verify succeeds I have inspected the IPA of our beta build and confirmed the App ID and the associated domains is an entitlement. I have looked at the console logs filtering by swcd. I am not seeing any errors and I see the download for the AASA file kick off: Beginning data task AASA-4BABF039-3C69-4E36-AA4E-ECCDF3D14878 { domain: bl….mo….org, bytes: 0, route: cdn } There is only one error that appears in the console but our app is not enterprise-managed so I assume this is normal. Error getting enterprise-managed associated domains data. If this device is not enterprise-managed, this is normal: Error Domain=SWCErrorDomain Code=1701 "Failed to get associated domain data from ManagedConfiguration framework." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=Failed to get associated domain data from ManagedConfiguration framework., Line=298, Function=<private>} I have run Sysdiagnos and identified for our App ID: Site/Fmwk Approval: approved I am at a loss as to what is preventing universal links from working even though all validation steps pass.

I have a question regarding specifying URLs for a Message Filter App Extension. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/identitylookup/creating-a-message-filter-app-extension The documentation states “If you have servers that can help your app extension determine how to handle a message, you must add the Associated Domains capability to your Xcode project and specify those domains.” The term servers and domains is specified in the plural, and adding two occurrences of ILMessageFilterExtensionNetworkURL to the info.plist doesn’t cause a build error. So the first question is: 1.What is the behaviour of the OS when two instances of ILMessageFilterExtensionNetworkURL but specifying different urls is defined? Does the OS, for example always try one url first, and if that doesn’t respond after N seconds, it attempts the second one? Can the Message Filter Extension indicate which of multiple defined ILMessageFilterExtensionNetworkURL should be used at run time? 3.How does the OS behave if a URL specified for ILMessageFilterExtensionNetworkURL resolves to two VIPs? Will the OS retry if the first VIP is not accessible (similar to any typical browser or web application behavior). Thank you
