Our iOS app supports CarPlay capability with the Driving task. The app is also configured to wake in the background on geofence entry or exit events, even from a terminated (killed) state. We would like to understand how to detect whether CarPlay is connected to the iPhone when the app wakes up or runs in the background. In this case, the CarPlay app is not actively running in the Car infotainment system foreground. Requirement: The app should perform a background task only when CarPlay is connected, including when launched in the background or from a killed state due to a geofence trigger. Could you please advise on the recommended way or API to determine CarPlay connection status in this background scenario? Thanks for the support!

Hello, If I fire an alarm using AlarmKit, using a ringtone that lengths less than 30 seconds, in the last version of iOS (26.0) the sound doesn't repeat. (After about 30 seconds, the sounds stops). BUT in the current version of iOS (26.1), the sound repeats until we slide Stop, thing that I doesn't want. So, is there a way to restore the previous behavior? Or is there a property that can fill this lack? Thank you very much.

My app uses CallKit and PushKit for real-time voice and video calls. I want to configure VoIP push notifications so incoming calls can wake the app, even when it’s in the background or terminated. Right now, I only see the normal Push Notifications option in my App ID settings and no VoIP Services section.

I'd like to write a MacOS App that makes use of the ASAM functonality as described here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/autonomoussingleappmode I have tried to use the example with Safari, and have enrolled a Mac with MDM and installed the profile. But when opening Safari it does not appear in Single App Mode. I've only tried it with Safari so far but eventually I want to be able to use my own App. Is there an API that has to be used to enter single app mode programmatically? I've found the whole Assessment API but as I do not have the required entitlements to use that API I'm looking for another solution. The documentation on ASAM does not mention the Assessment API at all, is it the only way to enter "a" single app mode on MacOS? How is the Assessment API linked to ASAM? As far as I have understood there's the com.apple.developer.automatic-assessment-configuration entitlement but apps having this do not need to be configured via MDM? I'm really confused as to what's actually required to be able to get into single app mode on MacOS. The app I'm trying to write isn't really related to an an assessment task, but I am doing this for an academic institution so maybe requesting the entitlement would be feasable. The documentation on ASAM also mentions that the App is granted access to the "Accessibility" API and I've found the whole UIAccessibility/requestGuidedAccessSession but this does not seem to be available on MacOS proper? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

We’re seeing unexpected NFC behavior once our app has 50+ Advanced App Clips created. Expected: Scanning an NFC tag with a URL that is NOT an App Clip invocation should show the standard “Open in Safari” notification. Actual: After we create ~50+ Advanced App Clips, scanning NFC tags for URLs on the same domain that are not associated with App Clips consistently shows “CPSErrorDomain error 2” instead of the Safari prompt.
 QR codes for the same non–App Clip URLs work as expected (shows Safari prompt). Clearing the App Clips “Experience Cache” sometimes helps briefly, but the error returns on consequent scans. Notes: Domain has valid AASA. App Clip invocation URLs work as expected.
 The issue appears tied to the number of Advanced App Clips configured. Below ~50, non–App Clip NFC scans behave correctly; above that, they fail.
 Affected across multiple devices and iOS versions tested. Repro steps: Configure 50+ Advanced App Clips for paths on a single domain.
 Encode a different URL on the same domain that is NOT listed as an App Clip invocation into an NFC tag.
 Scan the NFC tag on iPhone.
 Observe “CPSErrorDomain error 2” instead of the “Open in Safari” notification. Impact: blocks our NFC use case for regular web links once we scale App Clip experiences. Sysdiagnose #: FB20563121

When I call https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contactprovider/contactprovidermanager/enable() to request to use Contact Provider, I received a dialog with message like this "App Name would like to add its contacts as its own list. Contacts added this way can be removed from settings". I would like to support this message in Japanese or other languages. Is it possible?

On macOS 26, I've run into a situation when a user “customizes” a folder icon with Finder by assigning/changing an SF Symbol or an emoji, QLThumbnailGenerator keeps returning the stale initially retrieved folder icon (no matter whether it had been customized or not) until my app quits. After the app is re-launched, the icon is correctly retrieved once again. let generator = QLThumbnailGenerator.shared let size: CGSize = CGSize(width: 64, height: 64) let request = QLThumbnailGenerator.Request(fileAt: url, size: size, scale: NSScreen.main!.backingScaleFactor, representationTypes: .icon) request.iconMode = true do { let thumb = try await generator.generateBestRepresentation(for: request) thumb.nsImage.size = size return thumb.nsImage } catch { print("generateThumbnail: \(error)") return nil } It seems like the QuickLook Thumbnailing cache does not invalidate automatically upon folder customization. Is there any way to manually invalidate the QuickLook Thumbnailing cache?

I am trying to build my app and want to be able to integrate with apple ads services so I can get my users attribution token. I tried a added the "com.apple.developer.adservices" entitlement but now that I build my app it fails with the following error include the com.apple.developer.adservices entitlement. Profile qualification is using entitlement definitions that may be out of date. Connect to network to update. What do I need to do to make this work, I tried and cant fina any docs online

I'm developing a parental control app that needs to block adult/18+ websites using the Screen Time API. I've run into scaling issues with 'ManagedSettings.webContent.blockedByFilter`. Environment: iOS 18.x, real device (iPhone) ManagedSettings framework Screen Time permissions granted Current Behavior: The Question: Commercial parental control apps successfully block tens of thousands of domains. What API or architecture should I be using to scale beyond 30-50 domains? Approaches I'm considering: Safari Content Blockers (limited to Safari only) Multiple ManagedSettingsStore instances Network Extension / DNS filtering A different Screen Time API approach What's the recommended way to block large domain lists (1000-60000+) across all apps and browsers? Any guidance appreciated! //33 domains - Works perfectly let blockedSites: Set<WebDomain> = [ WebDomain(domain: "example1.com"), WebDomain(domain: "example2.com"), // ... 31 more domains ] store.webContent.blockedByFilter = .specific(blockedSites) // All 33 domains blocked successfully // 101 domains - Complete failure (no domains blocked at all) let blockedSites: Set<WebDomain> = [ WebDomain(domain: "example1.com"), // ... 100 more domains ] store.webContent.blockedByFilter = .specific(blockedSites) // No errors thrown, but ZERO domains are blocked

Hello! I am working on a screentime app and wondering if anyone has had success achieving reliable background shield application while using com.apple.ManagedSettingsUI.shield-configuration-service? I recently switched from com.apple.deviceactivity.shield-configuration (which worked reliably but isn't accepted by TestFlight) and have not found any consistency getting shields to apply while the app is backgrounded. I believe this is a known limitation of ManagedSettingsUI and want to know if there are successful workarounds or any specific patterns/timing that improve consistency?

anyone has the same problem which is that your device activity extension ain't working even tho all the code work perfectly in the console, I setup it in the right way , tried to make schedule and it did the same exact thing when I tried to create usage threshold. anyone know the reason for this bug? here is my extension code import ManagedSettings import FamilyControls import Foundation import OSLog import UserNotifications class MonitoringExtension: DeviceActivityMonitor { private let defaults = UserDefaults(suiteName: "group.com.William.app") private let logger = Logger(subsystem: "com.William.app", category: "MonitoringExtension") override func eventDidReachThreshold(_ event: DeviceActivityEvent.Name, activity: DeviceActivityName) { let activityRaw = activity.rawValue logger.info("Limite atteinte: \(activityRaw)") scheduleNotification(title: "Limite dépassée", body: "Tu as utilisé trop de temps sur \(activityRaw).") guard let data = defaults?.data(forKey: "\(activityRaw)_selection"), let selection = try? JSONDecoder().decode(FamilyActivitySelection.self, from: data) else { logger.warning("Pas de sélection pour \(activityRaw)") return } let store = ManagedSettingsStore() // ← LE SEUL QUI MARCHE store.shield.applications = selection.applicationTokens if !selection.categoryTokens.isEmpty { store.shield.applicationCategories = .specific(selection.categoryTokens) } logger.info("BLOCAGE ACTIF via ManagedSettingsStore.default") } override func intervalDidEnd(for activity: DeviceActivityName) { super.intervalDidEnd(for: activity) let store = ManagedSettingsStore() store.clearAllSettings() // ← Débloque à minuit logger.info("Restrictions levées à la fin de l'intervalle") } private func scheduleNotification(title: String, body: String) { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .sound]) { granted, _ in guard granted else { return } let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() content.title = title content.body = body let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: UUID().uuidString, content: content, trigger: nil) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(request) } } }

As of macOS 26 I have a menu item off a tray app that now is showing an exclamation mark by it when I have not defined one to show. Where is this coming from?

Hi Everyone, When we first hosted our apple-app-site-association file, our hosting provider was unintentionally blocking Apple’s crawler. As a result, Apple’s CDN seems to have cached a timeout / missing file response. We’ve since corrected the issue — the AASA file is now valid and accessible at: https://our-domain.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association sidenote: I am using "our-domain" as an alias. It is not our actual domain. We have verified that we return a valid JSON, HTTPS 200, correct MIME type. We used apple recommended tools to check this as well as other tools we found on the internet. However, when fetching through the Apple CDN: https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/our-domain.com we still receive: Apple-Failure-Reason: SWCERR00301 Timeout Apple-Failure-Details: {"cause":"context deadline exceeded (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)"} This has persisted for several days. Tools like getuniversal.link and yURL show that the CDN works fine in U.S. regions, but in Europe it continues serving the old timeout response. I’ve already opened a support ticket (Case ID: 102734912696), but the current support channel seems to be general developer account assistance rather than technical. They claim they can only assist us with account related issues (even though I used the code-support form...) Can someone please advise or help us escalate this to the appropriate internal team to refresh the Apple CDN cache for our domain? Thank you so much for your time and help.

Ok so for some background, our app has a keyboard extension where we run a dictation service. Due to iOS limitations, this requires the user to press a button on the keyboard which will then bring the user to our app to activate an audio session. Once the audio session has been activated, it takes the user back to the original app it came from to continue using the keyboard + dictation service. The problem we're running into involves iOS 26.0 and the iMessages app. Whenever our app tries to switch back to the iMessages app using Deep Link (specifically the messages:// URL), the iMessages app opens up a new message compose sheet. This compose sheet replaces the view or message thread that the user was previously looking at which we don't want. This behavior appears to be only happening in iOS 26 and not in any of the previous iOS versions (tested up to iOS 18.6). We know that it should be possible to bring the user back to the messages app without opening up this new compose sheet, because similar apps do the same thing and these apps have been verified to work on iOS 26. We've tried also using the sms:// URL but that always opens a new message compose sheet regardless of whether or not it's iOS 26.0.

Hi all. Does anyone know if there's a way to get a list of watch faces for a paired Apple Watch or to set the current face? Or is this just not allowed? I've taken a look at the WatchOS, WatchKit, and WatchConnectivity documentation and no luck there.

Hi, A lot of e-mail providers supports OAuth2 authentication. However, Mail.app on macOS and iOS do not support configuring a mail account that would use OAuth2 authentication, unless it's on its hardcoded list of account providers. Is there any framework that allows setting up a custom account for my institution, so that we could begin to offer OAuth2 authentication for mail and calendar?

One of the responses to a call to AgeRangeService.shared.requestAgeRange is AgeRangeService.Error.invalidRequest. This has no documentation. What on earth is an invalid request - I mean the app just calls the API, there's no parameters supplied or anything, how can the request ever be invalid? If the app calls AgeRangeService.shared.requestAgeRange and gets this as a response then what is the app supposed to do with that?
