I've been stuck on Guideline 2.3 for two weeks now and I'm running out of ideas. My app is iPhone-only (UIDeviceFamily = [1]) and has been on the App Store since January. Version 2.1.9 passed review fine. The only change in 2.1.10 is adding two DeviceActivity extensions — a DeviceActivityMonitor and a DeviceActivityReport — for screen time-based stress detection. Every build since then gets rejected with the same message: "The UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key in the Info.plist is set up in such a way that the app will not install on the device used in review." Review devices: iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPad Air M3. Here's what I've tried across 13+ submissions: UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities as ["arm64"] (array) — rejected Empty array [] — rejected Removed the key entirely — upload validation fails, Xcode re-injects arm64 anyway Post-build script to force ["arm64"] — rejected Dictionary format {"arm64": true} — rejected Added com.apple.developer.family-controls to extension entitlements — rejected Enabled Family Controls (Distribution) on extension bundle IDs — rejected Fixed CFBundleVersion mismatch between host app and extensions — rejected Set TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY=1 on all targets including extensions — rejected Tried GENERATE_INFOPLIST_FILE=YES with minimal plists — rejected Tried ExtensionKit type for the report extension — rejected In the exported IPA, every target has UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities = ["arm64"] and UIDeviceFamily = [1]. The entitlements, provisioning profiles, and code signing all look correct. arm64 is supported on every review device they listed. The previous version (2.1.9) without DeviceActivity extensions passes review with the exact same UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities and signing configuration. Has anyone shipped an app with DeviceActivityMonitor + DeviceActivityReport extensions successfully? Is there something specific about these extension types that affects device capability validation? Or is there a known issue with the review system and FamilyControls extensions? I've replied to the review team multiple times asking which specific capability is causing the failure, but the response is always the same generic template. Any guidance would be really appreciated — I'm completely blocked on shipping this update.

Hello, I released a new build for my app but it fails to run on iOS 12.5.8 (tested on iPad Air, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s). The launch storybard is shown, then the app stops abruptly. There is no crash log. It runs fine on iOS 13 or higher. Xcode 26.3 was showing a call stack (something with UIView) that did not include any app code. Now with Xcode 26.4 (and its new command line tools) there is an info popup with a debug metadata dump. However, I don’t intend to focus on Xcode here because it officially does not support iOS 12. It’s ok if I cannot debug, I just want the app to run on the device like the previous build did. Since there is no crash log, and the console is showing a bootstrap error, I believe my app code has not been executed and is therefore not at fault. Build 674 released on 23-Mar-2026: worked fine on iOS 12, built with Xcode 26.3 Build 675 released on 29-Mar-2026: Bootstrap error as described, with both Xcode 26.3 and 26.4 Deployment target = 12.4 Tried Instruments but it fails as soon as I hit record. In the console I found BKSProcessErrorDomain code 1. Here on the forum I found a post where the cause was no internet access but my device does have internet access. I made only very little code changes to my app between 674 and 675, no storyboard updates. I get the impression the loader does not even begin to execute my code. At this point I wonder if: some certificate has expired (see release dates above), or if something is incompatible in my main storyboard (though I did not change anything there), or the device ran out of memory (1 GB) Note: The app has 4 targets: main app target framework AU app extension intents app extension Thanks, Sven PS: Misclicked subtopic which should have been General (sorry).

I'm building an app that integrates with Reminders using EventKit, but I can't find a way to access two important structures from EventKit: The groups that contain reminder lists The sections inside each reminder list (available since iOS 17) Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

I'm trying to implement Unwanted SMS and Calls reporting in an app I'm doing in my idle time. If I place a UITextField or UITextView inside a ILClassificationUIExtensionViewController, every time I select on such control the extension crashes without any logs. The closet idea I have on why it crashes it has something to do with iOS requesting the dictation feature. I'm using the latest (beta 8 at the time) iOS 16.0 beta on my iPhone 13 pro. Attaching my code here if you want to try for yourself: github

Hello, I am starting work on adding AlarmKit to an existing project. During testing, I ran into an issue that if I hit Deny during the authorization request, I can't find any way to turn the alarm back on in settings. The only way I can get an authorization request again is by uninstalling the app and installing it again. I would like to be able to prompt my users where they can turn the Alarm back on if they accidentally hit Deny. Am I just not seeing the settings to change this somewhere?

Summary I'm using Background Assets to download Apple-hosted Asset Packs(downloadPolicy = onDemand). The first download cancellation succeeds, but on the second and subsequent downloads, progress.cancel() fails to work and the download completes to the end. Environment iOS 26.0 – 26.3 RC (all produce the same result) Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) Using Apple-hosted Asset Packs Steps to Reproduce Start downloading an Asset Pack Call progress.cancel() during download → Succeeds Start downloading the same Asset Pack again Call progress.cancel() during download → Fails (download completes to the end) Observed Error Logs After 1st cancellation: A download with the ID "X-XXXXXXXX-XXX" failed: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-999 "cancelled" ↑ This is expected (cancellation succeeded) The fact that version 0 of the asset pack with the ID "X-XXXXXX-XXX" finished being downloaded couldn't be reported: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3851 "Property list invalid for format: 200 (property lists cannot contain objects of type 'CFError')" ↑ Problem: Unable to serialize CFError to plist 2nd cancellation attempt: The download with the ID "X-XXXXXX-XXX" couldn't be canceled: Error Domain=BAErrorDomain Code=113 "The requested download operation failed because the download object did not exist." ↑ The download object we're trying to cancel supposedly doesn't exist Implementation Code // Cancel implementation func cancel(tag: String) async { let statusUpdates = AssetPackManager.shared.statusUpdates(forAssetPackWithID: tag) for await statusUpdate in statusUpdates { if case .downloading(_, let progress) = statusUpdate, progress.isCancellable { progress.cancel() } } } Analysis It appears that when the first cancellation occurs, the system internally tries to save the cancellation state to a plist, but fails to serialize the CFError object. This seems to cause an inconsistent internal state, preventing the system from correctly recognizing the download object on subsequent downloads. Questions Is there a workaround? Is there a planned fix for a future iOS version?

Reference: FB21797091 / Related to thread 807695 Hello, I have already submitted a report regarding this issue via Feedback Assistant (FB21797091), but I would like to share the technical details here to seek further insights or potential workarounds. We are experiencing a technical regression where Universal Links and Shared Web Credentials fail to resolve for Internationalized Domain Names (IDN) specifically on iOS 16 and later. This issue appears to be identical to the one discussed in thread 807695 (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/807695). Technical Contrast: What works vs. What fails On the exact same app build and iOS 16+ devices, we observe a clear distinction: Standard ASCII Domain (onelink.me): Works perfectly. (Proves App ID and Entitlements are correct) Internal Development Domain (Standard ASCII): Works perfectly. (Proves our server-side AASA hosting and HTTPS configuration are correct) Japanese IDN Domain (xn--[punycode].com): Fails completely. (Status: "unspecified") Note: This IDN setup was last confirmed to work correctly on iOS 15 in April 2025. Currently, we are unable to install the app on iOS 15 devices for live comparison, but the regression starting from iOS 16 is consistent. This "Triple Proof" clearly isolates the issue: the failure is strictly tied to the swcd daemon's handling of IDN/Punycode domains. Validation & Diagnostics: Validation: Our Punycode domain passes all technical checks on the http://Branch.io AASA Validator (Valid HTTPS, valid JSON structure, and Content-Type: application/json). sysdiagnose: Running swcutil on affected iOS 16+ devices shows the status as "unspecified" for the IDN domain. Symptoms: Universal Links consistently open in Safari instead of the app, the Smart App Banner is not displayed, and Shared Web Credentials for AutoFill do not function. Request for Resolution: We request a fix for this regression in the swcd daemon. If this behavior is a specification for security reasons, please provide developers with a supported method or workaround to ensure IDN domains function correctly. We have sysdiagnose logs available for further investigation. Thank you.

When using DateFormatter with the Atlantic/Azores timezone, calling date(from: formattedString) for the date 2026-03-29 returns nil unexpectedly. codes： let dateFormatter = DateFormatter() dateFormatter.dateFormat = "yyyyMMdd" // 年月日格式 dateFormatter.timeZone = TimeZone(identifier: "Atlantic/Azores") dateFormatter.locale = Locale(identifier: "en_US_POSIX") var now = Date() now -= 60 * 60 * 13 let formattedString = dateFormatter.string(from: now) let dateWithTimeZone = dateFormatter.date(from: formattedString) print(formattedString) //20260329 print(dateWithTimeZone) // nil

The documentation for NSURL -URLByAppendingPathComponent: states: "Returns a new URL by appending a path component to the original URL." Path component is singular. But this "works" : NSURL *testURL = [applicationsDirectory URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"Evil/../../" isDirectory:YES]; So my questions are: One) Was it always this way? I can't recall if it was like this before the Foundation rewrite and I just never stumbled across? and Two) Is it intended behavior? The API seems to suggest that you append one path component on the url with this method. But I guess you can append as many as you want?

[FB22327481] We are observing a rare issue where alarms scheduled using AlarmKit occasionally fire exactly at 12:00 AM, even though the alarm was scheduled for a different time. This issue happens only for a very small number of users (for example, 1–2 users per several thousand per day), but multiple reports confirm that the alarm goes off exactly at midnight. We also found that other developers are experiencing the same issue: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/815714 Observed behavior For a small number of users: Alarm fires at exactly 00:00 (midnight) This happens even when the scheduled alarm time is something like 7:30 AM Happens rarely Hard to reproduce internally Appears to happen only on real devices in production Additional notes We are using AlarmKit fixed schedules (not relative) Dates passed to AlarmKit are correct at scheduling time We do not intentionally create midnight alarms Issue seems random Question Are there any known limitations or edge cases with AlarmKit fixed schedules that could cause alarms to fire at midnight? For example: Invalid date fallback? Schedule expiration fallback? Time zone changes? Background refresh timing? Maximum schedule window? Any guidance would be appreciated, as this is affecting real users but is difficult to reproduce.

On iOS 26.3.1, deviceactivityd produces zero log output and never wakes a DeviceActivityMonitor extension at the scheduled time, even when the schedule is successfully registered. The extension's intervalDidStart(for:) method is never called. Steps to Reproduce: Create an app with a DeviceActivityMonitor extension subclass Add the com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement to both the main app and extension targets Add a shared App Group entitlement to both targets In the main app, call: let center = DeviceActivityCenter() center.stopMonitoring([.myActivity]) let schedule = DeviceActivitySchedule( intervalStart: DateComponents(hour: 17, minute: 30), intervalEnd: DateComponents(hour: 17, minute: 45), repeats: true ) try center.startMonitoring(.myActivity, during: schedule) Verify registration succeeds: DeviceActivityCenter().activities.contains(.myActivity) returns true Background the app completely and wait for the intervalStart time (5:30 PM in this example) Expected Result: intervalDidStart(for:) is called in the extension process at 5:30 PM. ManagedSettings shields are applied without any user interaction. Actual Result: intervalDidStart(for:) is never called. No extension process is launched. Filtering Console.app for deviceactivityd on the device returns 0 messages — the daemon produces no logs whatsoever despite an active registered schedule. Shields are never applied. Additional Evidence: Third-party apps using DeviceActivity (e.g. Prayer Lock) successfully apply shields at scheduled times on the same device and OS version, confirming the framework is not universally broken Filtering Console.app for the app's bundle ID at the trigger time shows the main app process applying shields via a UNCalendarNotificationTrigger fallback — but no extension process activity DeviceActivityCenter().activities correctly lists the registered activity before and after the trigger time, confirming the schedule registration API is functional Environment: iOS 26.3.1 Physical device (required for FamilyControls) Development-signed build with com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement provisioned App Group shared between main app and extension targets

I’m running into a hardware reality. MEMS sensor thermal drift. If a user zeroes out the tilt indoors at 20°C and then takes the phone outside in the cold, the accelerometer baseline shifts just enough as the device cools to throw off the readings. I want to apply a simple thermal compensation curve to the CoreMotion data to keep the "zero" perfectly level regardless of the weather. However, ProcessInfo.thermalState only gives broad buckets (nominal, fair, etc.) which doesn't help me calculate a continuous offset for a phone cooling down degree by degree. Is there any public API, or even a proxy metric, that can give me a rough battery or internal temperature integer? I don’t need high resolution decimals. Just a general device temp to offset the hardware drift. Any undocumented tricks or proxy metrics anyone has used to handle this?

Hello, I am the developer of an app called one sec which helps users to spend less time on social media: https://one-sec.app Therefore, we make heavy use of the Screen Time API, and thus ManagedSettings and ShieldActionDelegate. One feature of one sec is the so-called “Doom Scroll Emergency Brake”. This blocks a target app after a certain usage threshold (e.g. 5 minutes) and requires going through an intervention (e.g. breathing exercise) to unlock more time. That added friction makes it very effective in reducing time spent on apps. One thing that is confusing for our users is the way they are prompted to unlock more time, if they want to. They have to: Have Push Notifications enabled for one sec Exempt one sec’s notifications from being delayed by AI prioritization (otherwise they are delayed by ca. 10s) Ensure that push notifications can be delivered during foci. Understand that they have to tap on the notification, which is not very straight-forward because it does not make sense from the user’s UX perspective. This is an artificial limitation of Apple’s screen time framework which has no reason (no security / privacy implications here…). Screenshots of the current flow attached. If would be much more reasonable if there was a new ShieldActionResponse.openParentApp value that can be returned from the completion handler of the ShieldActionDelegate.handle(…) callback. We have seen different apps use private API to achieve this, but we are afraid to do the same to avoid getting banned from the App Store. It would be fair if Apple would level the playground for all apps and offer such an API officially. – Frederik PS: Tracked under FB22347946, FB18846650, FB15500681, FB15079668, FB10393561 (all without responses so far…)

We are developing an MDM agent app that uses FamilyControls with .individual authorization to enforce Screen Time restrictions (app blocking, domain blocking via ManagedSettingsStore and DeviceActivityCenter). The Problem We are actively subscribing to AuthorizationCenter.shared.$authorizationStatus to detect authorization changes. However, when the user revokes the app's FamilyControls authorization through Settings (either via Settings > Screen Time > Apps With Screen Time Access, or Settings > Apps > [Our App]), the publisher does not emit any value. All ManagedSettingsStore restrictions are lifted immediately by the system, but our app receives no notification of this change. The only scenario where the publisher reliably emits is when a debugger is attached (i.e., running directly from Xcode). Without the debugger, the publisher is completely silent — even when the app returns to foreground. Code Example We tried subscribing directly to AuthorizationCenter.shared.$authorizationStatus with no intermediary, exactly as shown in the documentation: AuthorizationCenter.shared.$authorizationStatus .sink { status in print("[DIRECT] authorizationStatus emitted: \(status)") } .store(in: &cancellables) This subscription is set up at app launch and stored in cancellables. The result is the same — the publisher does not emit when the user revokes authorization in Settings without a debugger attached. Documentation Reference The documentation for authorizationStatus states: "The status may change due to external events, such as a child graduating to an adult account, or a parent or guardian changing the status in Settings." And: "The system sets this property only after a call to requestAuthorization(for:) succeeds. It then updates the property until a call to revokeAuthorization(completionHandler:) succeeds or your app exits." This suggests the publisher should emit when the status is changed via Settings, but in our testing it does not — unless a debugger is attached. What We Verified We tested with a development-signed build (which includes the com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement), launched from Xcode, then disconnected the debugger, killed the app, and relaunched from the home screen. Scenario Publisher emits on revocation? Running from Xcode (debugger attached) Yes, immediately Development-signed build (no debugger) No — silent even on foreground return We also confirmed: MDM configuration profiles can disable Screen Time entirely, but cannot restrict the per-app authorization toggle — the user can always freely revoke the app's Screen Time access The Security Gap This creates a significant gap for parental controls use cases: User leaves the app (app goes to background) User goes to Settings and disables Screen Time access for the app All restrictions are immediately lifted User uses the device freely User re-enables Screen Time access and opens the app Everything syncs back to normal — administrator never knows Questions Is there any supported mechanism to receive a notification (background or foreground) when FamilyControls individual authorization is revoked? We are subscribing to AuthorizationCenter.shared.$authorizationStatus but it does not emit. Is the $authorizationStatus publisher expected to work only when a debugger is attached? Is this a known limitation or a bug? Can DeviceActivityMonitor extension detect authorization revocation? Based on documentation it appears limited to schedule/threshold events, but we haven't confirmed this. Is there a planned API improvement to address this gap? Environment iOS 26.2 Xcode 26.3 Swift 6.2.4 FamilyControls .individual authorization Related Threads Screen time API can be disabled easily Changing Screen Time Passcode does not protect apps

Is there a way to trigger the start of my app (just for a short time) when the iPhone is connected to CarPlay (and/or to a car via bluetooth). I could not find anything. I don´t want to apply for CarPlay as I have no intention to show something on the cars screen. Any even small tipp is welcome

I'd like to create a small helper app for new students do read/write User default settings. Since it was not possible using the UserDefaults class I decided to use the "/usr/bin/defaults". Unfortuntely it seems not to return anything. Debug output shows "Got data: 0 bytes" Here is a sample code: import SwiftUI func readDefaults(domain : String, key :String) -> String { let cmdPath = "/usr/bin/defaults" //let cmdPath = "/bin/ls" let cmd = Process() let pipe = Pipe() cmd.standardOutput = pipe cmd.standardError = pipe cmd.executableURL = URL(fileURLWithPath: cmdPath, isDirectory: false, relativeTo: nil) cmd.arguments = ["read", domain, key] //cmd.arguments = ["/", "/Library"] print("Shell command: \(cmdPath) \(cmd.arguments?.joined(separator: " ") ?? "")") var d : Data? do { try cmd.run() d = pipe.fileHandleForReading.readDataToEndOfFile() cmd.waitUntilExit() } catch let e as NSError { return "ERROR \(e.code): \(e.localizedDescription)" } catch { return "ERROR: call failed!" } // get pipe output and write is to stdout guard let d else { return "ERROR: Can't get pipe output from command!" } print("Got data: \(d)") if let s = String(data: d, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8) { print("Got result: \(s)") return s } else { return "ERROR: No output from pipe." } } struct ContentView: View { let foo = readDefaults(domain: "com.apple.Finder", key: "ShowHardDrivesOnDesktop") var body: some View { VStack { Text("ShowHardDrivesOnDesktop: \(foo.description)") } .padding() } } #Preview { ContentView() } This code works well e.g. for "ls" when the comments are changed for cmdPath and cmd.arguments. What do I miss in order to get it working with defaults?

Hi, Regarding the Brazil Digital ECA (DECA) requirements, which became effective on March 17, 2026. Following the guidance for regulated regions, we have been testing the eligibility check with the iOS 26.4 release. We previously confirmed that isEligibleForAgeFeatures was returning true for users in the Brazil region, which allowed us to verify our age-gating implementation. A few questions follow on this eligibility check: We have observed in manual testing that specific devices which returned true as recently as March 23rd are now returning false today, despite no changes to the OS build or account settings. Does this indicate a change in the server-side eligibility heuristics? Why would isEligibleForAgeFeatures stop returning true for a region where the law is now in force? Has the guidance on how to evaluate these properties for Brazil changed with the transition to the stable 26.4 release? Thank you!

The Numbers.app reopens the last edited document when the app launches. If the document was moved to another folder in the Files.app while the app was not running, Numbers.app correctly tracks the file and reopens it. However, if the document was deleted in the Files.app and moved to Recently Deleted, Numbers.app does not reopen the document when the app launches. Question : How does Numbers.app detect that a document has been moved to Recently Deleted? Can third-party apps implement the same behavior? What I tested : If a file is moved while the app is not running, resolving a bookmark successfully tracks the moved file. Files that are deleted via the Files.app appear in Recently Deleted, but those files are actually moved to the following directories: iCloud Drive /var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/.Trash/ On My iPad /var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/{UUID}/File Provider Storage/.Trash/ App sandbox Documents directory ([On My iPad]/[Any App]) /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/{UUID}/Documents/.Trash/ When resolving the bookmark after deletion, the bookmark still resolves successfully and returns the new file URL inside the .Trash directory. I tried the following checks on the resolved URL: Checking file existence Checking read/write accessibility Inspecting bookmark resolution results Using APIs related to NSTrashDirectory See https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/813329#813329021 All of these behaved the same as when the file was moved to a normal directory. None of these checks allowed me to detect that the file had been deleted. Additional experiment: I suspected that the app might simply check whether the path contains ".Trash", so I performed the following experiment. If a .numbers file is moved to /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/{UUID}/Documents/.Trash/ then The file appears in Recently Deleted in Files.app Numbers.app does not reopen the document when the app launches However, if the same file is moved to Documents/Trash Documents/.Trashed Documents/Any Folder/.Trash then The file does not appear in Recently Deleted in Files Numbers does reopen the document when launched This suggests that Numbers.app is not simply checking whether the path contains ".Trash".
