I created a ShieldConfigurationExtension in Xcode 14.3 with File > New > Target > ShieldConfigurationExtension. This created the extension with all the necessary Info.plist values (correct NSExtensionPrincipalClass, etc.), with the extension included in embedded content in the host app target. No matter what I try, the extension is not getting invoked when I shield applications from my host app. The custom UI does not show as the shield, and looking at the debugger, an extension process is never invoked. I am shielding categories like this: let managedSettings = ManagedSettingsStore() ... managedSettings.shield.applicationCategories = .all() And my extension code overrides all the ShieldConfigurationDataSource functions. class ShieldConfigurationExtension: ShieldConfigurationDataSource { override func configuration(shielding application: Application) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding application: Application, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } } What am I missing?

I'm experimenting with getting my AUv3 plugins working correctly on iOS and MacOS using Catalyst. I'm having trouble getting the plugin windows to look right in Logic Pro X on MacOS. My plugin is designed to look right in Garageband's minimal 'letterbox' layout (1024x335, or ~1:3 aspect ratio) I have implemented supportedViewConfigurations to help the host choose the best display dimensions On iOS this works, although Logic Pro iPad doesn't seem to call supportedViewConfigurations at all, only Garageband does. On MacOS, Logic Pro does call supportedViewConfigurations but only provides oversized screen sizes, making the plugins look awkward. I can also remove the supportedViewConfigurations method on MacOS, but this introduces other issues: I guess my question boils down to this: how do I tell Logic Pro X on MacOS what the optimal window size of my plugin is, using Mac Catalyst?

Touchscreen gestures in CarPlay aren't recognized in the app (delegate CPMapTemplateDelegate functions aren't called). Tried also in the Coastal Roads demo app to add test functions to check that pan functions are called - the same: func mapTemplateDidBeginPanGesture(_ mapTemplate: CPMapTemplate) { MemoryLogger.shared.appendEvent("Did begin pan gesture.") } func mapTemplate(_ mapTemplate: CPMapTemplate, panBeganWith direction: CPMapTemplate.PanDirection) { MemoryLogger.shared.appendEvent("Did begin pan gesture with direction \(direction.rawValue).") } Note: buttons (on carplay app) are working when pressing on them. Also, the desktop of carplay can be panned (by swipe gesture). Using Xcode 14.3, MacBook pro M1

I have a home widget with buttons (new in iOS 17). In order to prevent taking action if the user taps on the widget buttons accidentally, I want to ask the user for confirmation. It appeared that requestConfirmation be exactly what I needed, but no confirmation view shows up when I invoke this method in the perform function. I have tried the following: try await requestConfirmation(result: .result(dialog: "Are you sure you want to do this?") { Image(.mdlsWhite) }) and this alternative: let confirmed: Bool = try await $name.requestConfirmation(for: self.name, dialog: IntentDialog(stringLiteral: msg)) Neither option work. I am starting to think that the requestConfirmation is not to be used with Home Widgets. Is there a better way to handle confirmations for buttons included in a Home Widget?

Hello! I'm trying to donate an Intent to iOS using IntentDonationManager, following the methods described in the documentaion. try await IntentDonationManager.shared.donate(intent: MyIntent()) // succeeded However, I'm not seeing any effect of this action anywhere in the system (iOS 17 and 16). I have debugged it on both the simulator and a physical device, and I have also enabled the "Display Recent Shortcuts" toggle in the developer settings, but I still don't see any relevant suggestions appearing. Similarly, the issue also occurs with the old SiriKit framework, where INInteraction.donate(completion:) doesn't seem to have any observable effect. I recall that in iOS 15, the simulator would immediately present the donated Shortcut action on the lock screen and Spotlight page. However, starting from iOS 16 and continuing to the current iOS 17 beta 1/2, I haven't been able to achieve the same behavior using the same code. Another similar report: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/723109 So is there any way to test or verify the results of this donation action?

Anyone who has successfully migrated to using WidgetKit for their Apple Watch complications, your help would be greatly appreciated! I've migrated to WidgetKit for my Watch app. On the Apple Watch Face Editor, the new Widget names and options appear correctly. However, on the iPhone Apple Watch app, it offers both WidgetKit and old ClockKit complications... this should not be. I also have found rendering issues where Watch Faces on the main My Watch tab have blank gaps for WidgetKit complications, when selecting the Watch Face they then render (see photos) I've put in a feedback FB12460375 Have tried a full clear and reinstall of my app on both devices, no change. This issue occurs on WatchOS 9.5.2 / iOS 16.5.1 and WatchOS 10 Beta 2 / iOS 17 Beta 2 Any other ideas?

We persist ApplicationTokens in a storage container that ShieldConfigurationExtension has access to. In rare, cases all the ApplicationTokens for a user seem to change. We know this because the Application parameter passed into configuration(shielding application: Application) -> ShieldConfiguration function has a Token that does not match (using == ) any of the ones we are persisting in storage. Interestingly, the persisted ones still work, so I don't believe storage has gotten corrupted or anything. We can use them to add or remove shields, we can use them to display labels of the apps they represent, etc. But they don’t match what’s passed into the ShieldConfiguration extension. If the user goes into the FamilyPicker at this point and selects an app of a token that we are already persisting, the FamilyPickerSelection will have a token matching the new one that is passed into ShieldConfigurationExtension, not the one we persisted when they last selected that app. This leads me to believe the tokens are updated/rotated in some cases. When and why does this happen, and how can we handle it gracefully?

I have a text based action for iPhone and Mac Catalyst I am developing in Xcode 14.3.1 on macOS 13.4.1. I have the container app, an action and an AppGroup defined. I have confirmed that I can read the necessary shared defaults when the action launches. At this point the UI for the action is a simple textview in which I hope to display a modified version of the text passed to the action in the NSExtensionItems. I am not using a simulator. I am running the action directly using Xcode. What is happening is that the ActionViewController viewDidLoad runs but no visible window opens. In the console I see this as the action launches: 2023-07-05 18:27:23.692277-0700 XYZ[4634:279295] [ViewBridge] ViewBridge attempted to look up a hosted window with identifier 8E816BD5-67D3-402D-ADEB-AC59EDFA1F3B, but it was never registered. 2023-07-05 18:27:23.692408-0700 XYZ[4634:279295] [WindowHosting] UIScene property of UINSSceneViewController was accessed before it was set. .... The last line above is repeated 12 times.... Any helpful ideas would be deeply appreciated! Steve

Hi , how I can run my shortcut by tapping on button from widget?

Our application already supports an iMessage Extension, allowing users to create and send custom or trending stickers. On iOS 17.0, a popup menu replaces the old tab in iMessage with a "Stickers" option, and iMessage extensions are put in the "More" option. The "Stickers" page only shows the Sticker Pack Extension. However, an application can only support Sticker Pack Extension or iMessage Extension. Get this error: "Multiple message payload provider extensions found in app but only one is allowed". Is there any workaround here? We want our application to keep the iMessage extension but also provide sticker packs.

My app features two kinds of widgets, let's call them kind A and kind B. I have both A and B widgets on my Home Screen. When I tap the button on widget A (associated with App Intent), I expect widget B to also reload. However, if you call WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() inside the perform() method of the AppIntent, the timeline of widget B does not reload immediately. This issue only occurs on a physical device and is not consistently reproducible. On a simulator, however, widget B reloads as expected. FB13152293

Hi all, I'm working on a really basic counter app as a way to explore SwiftData and have come across some behavior that I don't understand. I have a very simple App Intent that increments a user-specified counter in my app. The intent doesn't throw any errors and correctly updates the CoreData store but, when I switch back to my app from the Shortcuts app (where I'm testing the app intent), the view hasn't updated. Closing and re-opening the app shows the incremented counter value but I'd like to know if it's possible to have my app's UI update when the CoreData store is updated from outside the app without relaunching the whole app. For some brief context, here's my view and the App Intent: struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query private var counters: [Counter] // ... var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { ForEach(counters) { counter in CounterRowItem(counter: counter) } .onDelete(perform: deleteItems) } // ... } } struct IncrementCounterIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Increment Counter" @Parameter(title: "Name", optionsProvider: CounterOptionsProvider()) var name: String func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<Int> { let provider = try CounterProvider() guard let counter = try provider.fetchCounters().first(where: { $0.name == name }) else { print("Couldn't find counter with name '\(name)'") return .result(value: 0) } counter.count += 1 try provider.context.save() return .result(value: counter.count) } private final class CounterOptionsProvider: DynamicOptionsProvider { func results() async throws -> [String] { try CounterProvider().fetchCounters().map { $0.name } } } }

Was watching this latest WWDC 2023 video and had a question. I see about 17:20 in, they mention you can now put the shortcut provider in an app intent extension. https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10103/ This works fine by itself and I can see all my shortcuts and use siri, but as soon as I try to call into the extension from the main app in order to trigger updateAppShortcutParameters() or any other code, I get a linker error. Am I doing something obvious wrong? Note, I called it a framework, but it Is just an extension. Cant figure out how I am supposed to be calling this method. Any help is greatly appreciated! https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/appshortcutsprovider/updateappshortcutparameters()?changes=_4_8 https://imgur.com/a/yDygSVJ

Hi, I have tried to add Eve energy plug but still pairing failed, it reported always same error. Error Domain=com.apple.MatterSupport Code=1 "(null)" Could anyone help? Regards

I am writing a SwiftUI-based app and have the following requirements: Use a file browser (such as UIDocumentPickerViewController) to find an arbitrary file (not one that the application knows how to open) which is external to the app bundle but local to the device the app is running on - either in local storage or on an iCloud drive. Save this location. At a later time, open this file. The file should open in an app that knows how to open it or in a browser. Do all of the above in a way that works with multiple devices (synced via CloudKit/SwiftData). For example, select a file on my iCloud drive on my Mac, then save it (using CloudKit/SwiftData) and open it on an iPad that has an app that can open it. I am addressing requirement #1 using UIDocumentPickerViewController wrapped with a UIViewControllerRepresentable. It returns a security-scoped URL. (Note: this worries me because of requirement #4). I use the Bookmark API to implement requirement #2. For requirement #3, I load the bookmark data, convert it back to a security-scoped URL and either Link("Open", destination: url) or @Environment(\.openURL) private var openURL if url.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() { defer { url.stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource() } openURL(url) { accepted in // do something here } } Both of these implementations fail. The Link call responds with "invalid input parameters" (Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain, Code=-50), the openURL() call just returns false. So, my questions are: Since it appears the Link and openURL work for internet URLs, but not for security-scoped file URLs, how to I cause a document to be opened (using an application which knows how to open it or a browser). Since UIDocumentPickerViewController is returning a security-scoped URL, how can I make this work on a different device than the one on which the user selected the document? (Assuming, of course, that we are talking about a document that is on an iCloud drive that both devices have access to).

I have edited the default widget with Intent, but am being hit with the following errors… it runs perfectly fine if I don’t use an Intent in a static widget Could not find an intent with identifier ConfigurationAppIntent, mangledTypeName: Optional("27trainWidgetsConfigExtension22ConfigurationAppIntentV") associateAppIntent(forUserActivity:) Error converting INIntent to App Intent: AppIntents.PerformIntentError.intentNotFound I think it may be something to do with Info.plist?

It seems that whenever I scan the contents of ~/Library/Containers with my app, I get the warning [App] would like to access data from other apps, regardless of how often I have already allowed it. When the warning appears, the last scanned file is ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.CloudPhotosConfiguration/Data. My sample code: let openPanel = NSOpenPanel() openPanel.canChooseDirectories = true openPanel.runModal() let url = openPanel.urls[0] let enumerator = FileManager.default.enumerator(at: url, includingPropertiesForKeys: nil) while let url = enumerator?.nextObject() as? URL { print(url.path) } Is it expected that one has to allow this warning every time the app is run?

Like the image showing, the element 'Ask ChatGPT' attaches below siri search suggestion , I guess SiriKit or Spotlight can implement it. But i searched a lot, no one introduct the detail technology. Do anyone ever implement it? Please help me. Thanks.

My iOS app get access to Calendars on iPhone and iPad (iOS 17) bey when running on Mac (designed for iPad) the app gets the ".notDetermined" authorizationStatus after a call to EKEventStore.authorizationStatus(for: .event). What should I do so that my App gain access to Calendars ?
