iPhone mirroring function has been added to this macOS.
I am also currently using the iPhone mirroring function.
However, when isSelectable is set to true in UITextView and isEditable is set to false
(isScrollEnabled is also set to false.)
Editing is not possible, but selection is possible. (In non-mirroring mode)
But in iPhone mirroring mode, selection is not possible
Is there an option for UITextView that allows text selection or a separate setting in macOS?
Or can this be fixed in the iPhone mirroring app when macOS is updated in the future? (If it is a bug or error?)
It seems to work normally in cases where UITextView is used but Edit is possible, such as in the memo app.

Hello, our app gets rejected as it crashes on launch. According to the logs, it happens because the app attempts to access private-sensitive data. We don't collect any of personal data, so it is probably done by Google Firebase embedded in the app (Core, Firestore, Auth). Maybe you have met similar cases and know any of Firebase settings that disable attempts of accessing privacy-sensitive data? We already set FirebaseDataCollectionDefaultEnabled to NO in info.plist, but it still not enough. Maybe error in facebook sdk? Before that it was written that there was an error when starting the ipad air 5

It is a very strange situation I am suffering now.
I am hosting thingsboard CE on AWS EC2 (443, 1883, 80 and 8080 port are opened), I can access the console GUI through domain name, public IP and my ESP32 device can register and report MQTT data, all the widgets everything work like a charm !
I can use Simulator (iPhone 16 Plus Max) to access the dashboard, widgets, alarms, devices and audit logs, and I can install the Runner on my iPhone 16 Plus Max through Xcode and the Runner works well as expected on the Simulator.
Whereas, when I created Testflight app, download and install the testing release in on my iPhone, I can access the GUI, see the dashboard, but after click the dashboard, all widgets cannot be loaded, thingsboard icon continues spinning ! The alarms, devices and audit logs on the Testflight app works well, no issues.
Did you ever experience such issue?
Thanks !

The app works on iPhone 16 Pro OS18.1 paired AW 10 OS11.0 but when the same iPhone paired with AW OS 11.1, I got the warning below and watch is not responsive
Could not get trait set for device Watch7,9 with version 11.1
I try to update remoteHandle using CXCallUpdate for outgoing call, but this works only on iOS 15 but not on 17 or 18 (16 didn't test). This problem actual only for outgoing calls, but for incoming calls update works fine.
func startOutgoingCall(with callID: UUID, userID: String) {
let handle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: userID)
let action = CXStartCallAction(call: callID, handle: handle)
callController.requestTransaction(with: action) { [weak self] error in
// ...
}
}
func updateOutgoingCall(with callID: UUID, groupID: String) {
let update = CXCallUpdate()
update.remoteHandle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: groupID)
provider.reportCall(with: callID, updated: update)
}
I also tried phoneNumber type but it seems initial handle that I set to CXStartCallAction not possible to change (value or even type).
I use this handle value to implement recall by tap on call in Recents tab of system address book. But since my calls can transform from p2p to group call, I need to update handle value or find some another way to pass call identification info.
Hi,
I'm implementing a BADownloaderExtension in my app for essential assets. I would like to treat the install case differently than the update case, however it seems whether I "install" or "update" the app (via TestFlight) I always end up getting a BAContentRequest of type .install. I can simulate an update via xcrun, but cannot seem to get into that case in the wild. Is this expected?
My app is available in TestFlight but has been rejected in App Review with the review feedback that the app clip "just shows a blank screen".
However, in the TestFlight app, the App Clip works as expected and brings up the clip. It also works correctly from Xcode testing.
Any ideas on what the problem could be? It is using the default App Clip link (appclip.apple.com)
Recent Incident with SDKAnalytics Version 11.11.4
We recently released version 11.11.4 of SDKAnalytics for use in the SuperApp. This update introduced several significant changes since the last generated version, 11.11.0. The previous version's primary change was the migration of the integration pipeline and its identifier from OQ6 to FW6. Additionally, we performed refactoring and adjustments to the project's configurations.
In SDKAnalytics, we use XcodeGen to simplify project setup and minimize conflicts. We also rely on CocoaPods to create and manage our Pods/Frameworks.
The SuperApp, where SDKAnalytics is implemented, operates as a centralized ecosystem. Its products and user journeys are segregated into Pods/Frameworks, distributed across multiple repositories, following a multi-repo structure. Currently, the app includes over 300 Pods.
Starting from version 11.11.1 of our SDK, we implemented some important project changes. However, when we released version 11.11.4, which included a new feature for the SuperApp, we encountered a critical issue.
Incident Overview
All SDKs implemented in the SuperApp have their loading times monitored. After updating SDKAnalytics from version 11.11.0 to 11.11.4, the loading time spiked from 200 ms to 3000 ms. Faced with this significant impact, we launched a task force to investigate and resolve the issue.
Investigation and Diagnosis
After several days of investigation, we carefully reviewed the numerous pull requests merged between versions 11.11.0 and 11.11.4. As a strategy, we reverted the project.yml configurations from version 11.11.4 to match those of version 11.11.0. This rollback resolved the loading time issue, indicating that the problem stemmed from the project's configuration.
Upon deeper analysis, we identified the culprit: a single line of configuration. The Bundle ID for the SuperApp follows the pattern com.companyname.enterprise. However, in version 11.11.4, SDKAnalytics adopted a new Bundle ID format: com.companyname.SDKAnalytics. This change directly impacted the SDKAnalytics loading time when implemented in the SuperApp.
Solution
To resolve the issue, we reverted this configuration. We modified the Bundle ID for SDKAnalytics to br.com.SDKAnalytics, removing the com.companyname prefix. After this change, the loading time returned to normal.
Reflection
The lingering question remains: What is the logical explanation for this discrepancy in loading time caused by the Bundle ID configuration? This behavior is unexpected, and we plan to investigate further to understand the underlying technical reasons.
Deeplinks in our Mobile (native) application work fine from email clients such as Gmail and Outlook with a default browser such as Safari. If the app is already installed, clicking the link launches it.
However, when we click on the same link from Outlook email with the default browser, Edge, it opens directly in the browser, because any external links in Outlook email route through safe links, which prevents deep linking to the APP.
The current behavior is as follows:
When Safari is the default browser, the process works seamlessly, and the app opens directly. outlook->deep link pressed -> redirect to safari ->opens the app if already installed
However, when Microsoft Edge is set as the default browser, it opens the App Store link in a popover, with an option to open the app if installed.
outlook->deep link pressed -> redirect to Edge->opens the app store inside edge even app already installed
Note : outlook is enforcing safe link policies and also App protection policies.
I would like to achieve the same behavior with Microsoft Edge as with Safari, where the app opens directly rather than redirecting to the App Store.
Is there a specific configuration or workaround to ensure that Microsoft Edge, when set as the default browser, opens the app directly instead of redirecting to the App Store?
Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I am expecting that this safe link works the same as works with a safari in iOS Devices. I have also tried this - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/app-protection-policy-settings-ios#exempt-universal-links but not working I'd appreciate it if you could assist me with this matter as soon as possible.

The data displayed about a child’s apps can be outdated (DeviceActivityReport), leading to misinformation for the user. When I access the “Screen Time” section (for child in the parent device) in the iPhone settings, I see there is an update functionality to force load the actual data.
I have tried various workarounds, such as attempting to force an update on the child’s device to call DeviceActivityReport and opening system settings, but none of these have been successful :(
How can I implement something similar? Is there a way to force update this data ?

Can the App Clip card be invoked by tapping on a link (not a default appclip link) which is shared through message box or whatsApp chat or Email?
I gone through the reference of App Clip Card invocation from scanning QR code, App Clip Code, NFC Tag, Safari smart banner, default App Clip links and link presentation framework.
But I didn't find any reference or documentation that custom links will invoke App Clip Card or won't invoke App Clip Card. So, need reference if possible that App Clip card be invoked by tapping on a custom link which is shared through whatsApp chat or message box or Email.
Hi,
I'd like to develop an app which runs speech recognition even after going into background. I know I can accomplish this using audio background mode and the process the audio but I am not sure if this workaround would get accepted into App Store because of the processing limitations while in the background.
How can I accomplish this while still being compliant with Apples privacy policy and other restrictions?
Thanks,
Marek
Hello everyone,
I've built a @CurrentValue property wrapper that mimics the behavior of @Published, allowing a property to publish values on "did set". I've also created my own assign(to:) implementation that works with @CurrentValue properties, allowing values to be assigned from a publisher to a @CurrentValue property.
However, I'm running into an issue. When I use this property wrapper with two classes and the source class (providing the publisher) is not stored as a property, the subscription is deallocated, and values are no longer forwarded.
Here's the property wrapper code:
@propertyWrapper
public struct CurrentValue<Value> {
/// A publisher for properties marked with the `@CurrentValue` attribute.
public struct Publisher: Combine.Publisher {
public typealias Output = Value
public typealias Failure = Never
/// A subscription that forwards the values from the CurrentValueSubject to the downstream subscriber
private class CurrentValueSubscription<S>: Subscription where S: Subscriber, S.Input == Output, S.Failure == Failure {
private var subscriber: S?
private var currentValueSubject: CurrentValueSubject<S.Input, S.Failure>?
private var cancellable: AnyCancellable?
init(subscriber: S, publisher: CurrentValue<Value>.Publisher) {
self.subscriber = subscriber
self.currentValueSubject = publisher.subject
}
func request(_ demand: Subscribers.Demand) {
var demand = demand
cancellable = currentValueSubject?.sink { [weak self] value in
// We'll continue to emit new values as long as there's demand
if let subscriber = self?.subscriber, demand > 0 {
demand -= 1
demand += subscriber.receive(value)
} else {
// If we have no demand, we'll cancel our subscription:
self?.subscriber?.receive(completion: .finished)
self?.cancel()
}
}
}
func cancel() {
cancellable = nil
subscriber = nil
currentValueSubject = nil
}
}
/// A subscription store that holds a reference to all the assign subscribers so we can cancel them when self is deallocated
fileprivate final class AssignSubscriptionStore {
fileprivate var cancellables: Set<AnyCancellable> = []
}
fileprivate let subject: CurrentValueSubject<Value, Never>
fileprivate let assignSubscriptionStore: AssignSubscriptionStore = .init()
fileprivate var value: Value {
get {
subject.value
}
nonmutating set {
subject.value = newValue
}
}
init(_ initialValue: Output) {
self.subject = .init(initialValue)
}
public func receive<S>(subscriber: S) where S: Subscriber, Failure == S.Failure, Output == S.Input {
let subscription = CurrentValueSubscription(subscriber: subscriber, publisher: self)
subscriber.receive(subscription: subscription)
}
}
public var wrappedValue: Value {
get { publisher.value }
nonmutating set { publisher.value = newValue }
}
public var projectedValue: Publisher {
get {
publisher
}
mutating set {
publisher = newValue
}
}
private var publisher: Publisher
public init(wrappedValue: Value) {
publisher = .init(wrappedValue)
}
}
/// A subscriber that receives values from an upstream publisher and assigns them to a downstream CurrentValue property.
private final class AssignSubscriber<Input>: Subscriber, Cancellable {
typealias Failure = Never
private var receivingSubject: CurrentValueSubject<Input, Never>?
private weak var assignSubscriberStore: CurrentValue<Input>.Publisher.AssignSubscriptionStore?
init(currentValue: CurrentValue<Input>.Publisher) {
self.receivingSubject = currentValue.subject
self.assignSubscriberStore = currentValue.assignSubscriptionStore
}
func receive(subscription: Subscription) {
// Hold a reference to the subscription in the downstream publisher
// so when it deallocates, the susbcription is automatically cancelled
assignSubscriberStore?.cancellables.insert(AnyCancellable(subscription))
subscription.request(.unlimited)
}
func receive(_ input: Input) -> Subscribers.Demand {
receivingSubject?.value = input
return .none
}
func receive(completion: Subscribers.Completion<Never>) {
// Nothing to do here
}
public func cancel() {
receivingSubject = nil
assignSubscriberStore = nil
}
}
public extension Publisher where Self.Failure == Never {
/// Assigns the output of the upstream publisher to a downstream CurrentValue property
/// - Parameter currentValue: The CurrentValue property to assign the values to
func assign(to currentValue: inout CurrentValue<Self.Output>.Publisher) {
let subscriber = AssignSubscriber(currentValue: currentValue)
self.subscribe(subscriber)
}
}
Here’s an example demonstrating the issue, where two classes are used: Source, which owns the @CurrentValue property, and Forwarder1, which subscribes to updates from Source:
final class Source {
@CurrentValue public private(set) var value: Int = 1
func update(value: Int) {
self.value = value
}
}
final class Forwarder1 {
@CurrentValue public private(set) var value: Int
init(source: Source) {
self.value = source.value
source.$value.dropFirst().assign(to: &$value)
// The source is not stored as a property, so the subscription deallocates
}
func update(value: Int) {
self.value = value
}
}
With this setup, if source isn’t retained as a property in Forwarder1, the subscription is deallocated prematurely, and value in Forwarder1 stops receiving updates from Source.
However, this doesn’t happen with @Published properties in Combine. Even if source isn’t retained, @Published subscriptions seem to stay active, propagating values as expected.
My Questions:
What does Combine do internally with @Published properties that prevents the subscription from being deallocated prematurely, even if the publisher source isn’t retained as a property?
Is there a recommended approach to address this in my custom property wrapper to achieve similar behavior, ensuring the subscription isn’t lost?
Any insights into Combine’s internals or suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hi everyone,
We’re integrating Apple Calendar (iCalendar) into our Codapet app but haven’t found any official Apple APIs for event management and synchronisation.
Currently, we use CalDAV with Apple ID authentication and an app-specific password (ASP), storing the ASP encrypted in our database and decrypting it for each API call. We’re looking for a more secure and recommended approach to this integration.
Does Apple provide dedicated APIs for calendar sync, or is there a better alternative to avoid sending the ASP with every request? Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
app migration has been found to cause a change in the team ID. The Associated Domians section of Xcode includes the team ID. If the transfer is completed, will the team ID that has already installed my Nanjing app automatically change? If not, how can I ensure compatibility between the new and old versions
We are developing an iOS app to connect to vehicles and trigger predefined vehicle controls (door lock/unlock) via the Digital Key framework.
We are currently blocked on several aspects and would appreciate your expertise to clarify the following queries.
How can we list down connected vehicle information?
What is the method to retrieve connection status?
How can we perform vehicle control actions (e.g., door lock/unlock)?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Starting the CarKeyRemoteControlSession to Fetch Vehicle Reports
Currently, we are using the following API to start a CarKeyRemoteControlSession:
open class func start(
delegate: any CarKeyRemoteControlSessionDelegate,
subscriptionRange subscriptionFunctionIDRange: ClosedRange? = nil,
with delegateCallbackQueue: DispatchQueue? = nil
) async throws -> CarKeyRemoteControlSession
After successfully creating the session, we check for vehicle reports using the vehicleReports property of CarKeyRemoteControlSession:
public var vehicleReports: [VehicleReport] { get throws }

I have been using the hourly weather forecast API, for some reason sometimes the API fails with 400 Bad Request, but on retrying just a minute later the call successfully returns data. The start and end time are 2 days apart so I don't think it's an issue with the time frame.
The failed calls also don't return any reason so not sure what is the exact failure.
Has anyone encountered this issue or knows why this might be happening??
Thanks!!
There's a 128mb limit for donating items to core spotlight. As far as I understand, there's a warning that shows in the Xcode console when either approaching or hitting that limit. It would be great if there was an API to check the current status of available storage for QA purposes to see if we're either donating too much or can donate more. Thanks!
Hello,
I am implementing an App Intent which shows a confirmation dialog before proceeding with the operation execution.
It works fine when the intent is started from a shortcut, but it always fails when started from Siri: I obtain the error message depicted in the attached screenshot ("An error occurred, try again").
That message appears as soon as the requestConfirmation method is called in the perform method of my App Intent:
try await requestConfirmation(actionName: .do, dialog: "app_intent_sim_confirmation_message") {
SIMRechargeIntentSummaryView(...)
}
...
How can I solve the problem?
Thanks
