Our users report frequent crashes with the FamilyActivityPicker. Since this is a screen controlled by Apple, I'm assuming that there's nothing I can do to prevent these crashes. I'm wondering, though, if there's any way to gracefully handle these crashes? When this happens, the following is printed to the console: [com.apple.FamilyControls.ActivityPickerExtension(1121)] Connection to plugin invalidated while in use. Does anyone know how to handle/catch this error?

iOS 16.4 and 17.2.1 Hello, I've been developing the universal link for my mobile application and I can't actually get the app to open when the link is tapped. I went through some trial and error.. but here's my current status: testing my url in settings -> developer -> associated domains shows that my link should open an installed application sysdiagnose logs show that everything looks good there: Service: applinks App ID: 1234abcd.com.example Domain: example.com User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Last Checked: 2023-08-24 10:09:00 +0000 Next Check: 2023-08-18 21:00:19 +0000 The only thing that indicates an error of some kind is the console logs during install.. when filtering on swcd it shows an error for Error getting enterprise-managed associated domains data. If this device is not enterprise-managed, this is normal: Error Domain=SWCErrorDomain Code=1701 UserInfo={Line=231, Function=<private>} I'm not sure if this is a managed device - my understanding is that managed devices allow enterprise businesses to operate the device remotely essentially (send files, run commands, etc). To my knowledge, this isn't enterprise managed device. It is listed in the devices page in my company's developer account, but we are a smaller shop, definitely not enterprise. I added the associated domain/app link via xcode, and it generated the entitlements file for me. <key>com.apple.developer.associated-domains.mdm-managed</key> <true/> switching that to false breaks the build: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: <mydomain>.<myapp>.dev" doesn't match the entitlements file's value for the com.apple.developer.associated-domains.mdm-managed entitlement. Profile qualification is using entitlement definitions that may be out of date. Connect to network to update. Removing it all together builds fine but doesn't allow me to open the app with a link. The other thing that looks off is an output in the logs filtered on swcd for Developer mode enabled: No but clearly I've enabled developer mode on the phone. I've pasted my link into my notes app and am attempting to open it from there If anyone can help me figure out what the disconnect is here, it would be greatly appreciated!

EKEventStore on Apple Watch is not giving me all calendars. I can see only calendars of the source 'Subscriptions', but non of the calendars of source CalDAV (iCloud). This problem exists over multiple apps. Code works fine on iPhone. Any ideas? Minimal example code: import SwiftUI import EventKit struct ContentView: View { let eventStore = EKEventStore() @State var success: Bool = false @State var calendarNames: [String] = [String]() func request() async { success = (try? await eventStore.requestFullAccessToEvents()) ?? false } func list() { calendarNames = eventStore.calendars(for: .event).map { $0.title } } var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Access: \(success.description)") ScrollView { ForEach(calendarNames, id: \.self) { name in Text(name) } } } .onAppear { Task { await request() list() } } .padding() } }

I am experiencing difficulties in fully integrating my Apple Watch with a supervised iPhone under MDM control. While I have successfully paired the watch with the iPhone, I am facing issues with some apps not syncing or appearing on the Apple Watch. This issue persists despite having allowed their bundle IDs in the MDM’s whitelist. Could anyone provide guidance on which specific Apple bundle ID is crucial for maintaining the connectivity and functionality between the iPhone and the Apple Watch? Understanding this would help in ensuring that the necessary bundle ID is whitelisted in the MDM settings, thus resolving the app visibility and functionality issues on the Apple Watch.

Hello. Here is my AASA file (my appID changed): { "applinks": { "apps": [], "details": [ { "appIDs": [ "A123B4567C.app.myapp.tool" ], "components": [ { "/": "/en", "exclude": true }, { "/": "/en/*", "exclude": true }, { "/": "/workspace/*", "exclude": true }, { "/": "*" } ], "paths": [ "NOT /en", "NOT /en/*", "NOT /workspace/*", "*" ] } ] } } I need to open all links with my app except those with excluded flag. When I open 'right' links, my app opens them (that's great). When I open excluded link (e.g. https://myapp.app/workspace/personal) Safari opens it (that's great) but then the app is launched (that's what not expected). What I already checked: added the old "paths" property (it wasn't there originally) rebooted my device reinstalled my app from the TestFlight then from the AppStore asked ChatGPT used AASA validator (branch.io one) cleared Safari cache checked my links for redirects What else can I check? Thanks.

I woke up this morning to all of our app clips showing "App Clip Unavailable" on the app clip card with no change on our side to the app or app clips. What's weird is that the app clip card shows up fine if you have our app installed, otherwise it shows the error message on the app clip card. My leading theory is it could be an issue with apple's system (wouldn't be the first time we've had issues that were magically broken then fixed with nothing being changed), anybody else seeing issues or have ideas? Have verified the apple-app-site-association files have not changed and that the Associated Domains in any recent app releases all are the same.

I show some content in LiveActivity Dynamic Island and added a button. As buttons work with App Intent I created an Intent. When the button is clicked I get the following error Could not find an intent with identifier MyIntent, mangledTypeName: Optional("19LiveWidgetExtension10MyIntentV") MyIntent.swift import Foundation import AppIntents struct MyIntent: LiveActivityIntent { public init() { } func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { print("click") return .result() } } MyLiveActivity.swift ... DynamicIslandExpandedRegion(.bottom) { HStack(alignment: .top) { Button(intent: MyIntent()) { Image(systemName: "bolt.fill") } } .tint(.white) .padding() } .... The Intent is added to all targets. Any ideas?

I'm currently experimenting with the latest Xcode beta 15.3 (15E5194e) and attempting to integrate FinanceKit](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/financekit) into my project. However, I've encountered a persistent issue where the app crashes upon attempting to read or request authorization, accompanied by the following error message: FinanceKit/FinanceStore+FinancialDataAuthorization.swift:52: Fatal error: Process is not entitled Upon investigation, I've found no evident entitlements for FinanceKit, despite exploring options like Apple Wallet. Furthermore, I thoroughly examined the info.plist for relevant privacy values but found nothing pertinent. Here's the code snippet that triggers the fatal error, whether it's the request or read function: I don't see anything in entitlements for FinanceKit (I tried Apple Wallet and that didn't make a difference). Additionally, I checked for relevant privacy values for the info.plist but again didn't see anything relevant. Here is the code to reproduce the error (note calling either function will result in the same fatal error): import FinanceKit import UIKit class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() requestFinancePermission() // readFinancePermission() } private func requestFinancePermission() { Task { do { let status = try await FinanceStore.shared.requestAuthorization() } catch { print("Error: \(error)") } } } private func readFinancePermission() { Task { do { let status = try await FinanceStore.shared.authorizationStatus() } catch { print("Error: \(error)") } } } } I'm seeking clarification on whether FinanceKit is currently usable or if there are additional steps needed for proper integration. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Our app has a share extension. And we recently noticed something with iOS 17.3.1. From Safari, when we receive the plist and try to load it, we are seeing exceptions for classes not allowed to be unarchived. [itemProvider loadItemForTypeIdentifier:[UTTypePropertyList identifier] options:nil completionHandler:^(NSDictionary *jsDict, NSError *error) { } We see these exceptions: value for key 'NS.keys' was of unexpected class 'NSString' (0x1ee7d2970) [/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework]. Allowed classes are: {( "'NSDictionary' (0x1ee7cad38) [/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework]" )} (null) Our preprocessing javascript file is basic, and only passes a title and URL as part of the payload. arguments.completionFunction({ "URL": document.URL "title": document.title, });

Hello. My project includes a widget target that provides interactive widget functionalities. The document "Adding Interactivity to Widgets and Live Activities" says the following: Additionally, note that the perform() function is marked as throws. Be sure to handle errors instead of rethrowing them, and update your app, widget, and Live Activity as needed. For example, update a widget’s interface to indicate that it displays outdated information if it cannot load new data. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/widgetkit/adding-interactivity-to-widgets-and-live-activities#Implement-the-perform-function, column 3 However, I couldn't find a way how to handle an error in an interactive widget. The Button(intent:) and Toggle(intent:) initializers don't have mechanisms for error handling. Does anyone know a solution for handling errors in interactive widgets?

The functionality of authorizationStatus and requestAuthorization is completely broken. I'm using Xcode 15.3 and iOS 17.4. Does anyone have a solution? authorizationStatus doesn't behave as promised Revoking authorization in the system-wide settings does not change the authorizationStatus while the app is not closed. Calls to center.authorizationStatus will still return .approved instead of .denied. Even closing and relaunching the app after revoking authorization does not work: authorizationStatus is then .notDetermined when it should be .denied. Tapping "Don't Allow" in the alert shown after an initial call to requestAuthorization leaves the authorizationStatus unchanged, i.e. at .notDetermined. This is contrary to the promised outcome .denied (defined as: "The user, parent, or guardian denied the request for authorization") and contrary to the definition of .notDetermined (defined as: "The app hasn’t requested authorization", when it just did). Same issue when first tapping "Continue" followed by "Don't Allow" on the next screen. As a consequence of authorizationStatus being broken, its publisher $authorizationStatus is worthless too. requestAuthorization doesn't behave as promised This is most likely a consequence of the corrupted authorizationStatus: when revoking authorization in the system-wide settings, a call to requestAuthorization opens the authorization dialogue instead of doing nothing. It is thus possible to repeatedly ask a user to authorize Family Controls. Code sample To reproduce, create a new SwiftUI app, add the "Family Controls" capability and a button executing the following task when tapped: let center = AuthorizationCenter.shared var status = center.authorizationStatus print(status) do { try await center.requestAuthorization(for: .individual) print("approved") } catch { print("denied") } status = center.authorizationStatus print(status)

When we use the App Clip link to jump on an iOS17 device, the first click will not respond, and the App Clip pop-up window will not pop up until the second click. Proceed as follows: After the iPhone clicks the link for the first time, or clicks the ‘Clear Experience Cache’ button in setting-->Developer-->App Clips Testing On the Notes App on iPhone, click the link https://appclip.apple.com/id?p=com.example.naturelab.backyardbirds.Clip There is no response when clicking the link for the first time, and the window will not pop up until the second click. Is this an iPhone problem? Looking forward to your reply

Here is a post to gather findings in case anyone found out what this new API does. Apple did not include any comments or documentation and due to the generic naming we don't know what this API might does. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/deviceactivity/deviceactivityauthorization?changes=latest_major

I'm currently exploring how to implement the AppIntent parameter with a list of apps similar to what's shown in the screenshots provided below: I'm particularly interested in how the searchable list of apps is implemented. My current approach involves creating an enum for the apps, but it lacks searchability and requires manual addition of each app. Does anyone have an idea on how this functionality might be implemented? It appears that the searchable list might be a native Apple view, but I haven't been able to find any documentation or resources on it. Any insights or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Since updating to iOS v17.4.1 our safari extension no longer functions as it used to We are experiencing issues where our content script is not getting initialized, On devices running iOS 17.4.1, the content script included in our extension does not appear to run. There are no logs from the content script in the console, whereas on other versions and devices, it operates as expected. Our Extension relies con communication between the background and content scripts in order for us to render various popups to our users, based on our logs as of iOS 17.4.1 this communication is not successful, we can see messages being sent from the background script but as mentioned above nothing on the content script side. This behavior happens majority of the time and on random sites, sometimes opening the same site in a new tab would work but not always. There are also times where we would only receive our popups after opening the safari menu and interacting with our extension via this menu. Please assist with a way forward

There is an inconsistent issue when views are rendered from the Device Activity Report Extension. This issue is noticeable only on release versions and it works fine in debug mode. Around 80% of the times, the Report Views return blank screen and this is only the case when a weekly/monthly filter is used. Although, it works as expected for daily report views. My questions are: How are all the Report Activity Views working fine in debug mode but not in release mode? How the daily activity filter works fine in the release mode but the weekly/monthly filters don't work? Is this because of a memory limit issue in the extension? As of now, I have the family-controls(distribution) entitlement only for the app and for the extensions I only have family-controls(development) entitlement. Do I need to request for family-controls(Distribution) entitlement even for the extensions? I have seen threads on the forum mentioning the blank screen issue associated with the DeviceActivityReport but haven't found a solution to it. Any suggestions/feedback would be of great help, thanks.

Hi there, I'm currently working with the Screen Time API using the family controls package to manage application usage on iOS devices. I want to block access to all applications except those specifically allowed by the user. While the ManagedSettingsStore.shield.applications method works for defining apps to block. However, integrating the .all(except:) from ShieldSettings.ActivityCategoryPolicy.all(except:) is unfortunately not working for me. Here is my code snippit. Can anyone help out? And if anyone has examples of similar implementations or tips on best practices for using the Screen Time API for such scenarios, please let me know! class ShieldManager: NSObject, ObservableObject, NFCNDEFReaderSessionDelegate { @Published var discouragedSelections = FamilyActivitySelection() private let store = ManagedSettingsStore() func shieldActivities() { // Clear to reset previous settings store.clearAllSettings() // This is an array with the app and category selection let applications = discouragedSelections.applicationTokens let categories = discouragedSelections.categoryTokens // //https://developer.apple.com/documentation/managedsettings/shieldsettings/activitycategorypolicy store.shield.applications = applications.isEmpty ? nil : applications store.shield.applicationCategories = categories.isEmpty ? nil : .specific(categories) store.shield.webDomainCategories = categories.isEmpty ? nil : .specific(categories) } f

This is Saeid from Drion.ai Ag company in Germany. We are s marketing startup and we are developing a marketing platform we need to give opportunity to our users to sign in using Apple ID. I have sent all of the company documents, my ID card, and all documents that we have in our company just to activate the AppID login API and it is nothing after more than 2 months. I had a call from Apple support and she told me to send some documents I did it, but nothing yet. Is this Apple company's suport for developers?!
