Matter device data pipeline
I'm device manufacturer and in future planning to get my device matter certified. If I want my device data for analytics purpose into my cloud than what is the best way possible. My research says that the most latest approach suggested by apple is, developing a custom mobile app using device homekit sdk and subscribe to device state and send it to my cloud. If I go that route, will it work even though the device was onboarded via homekit app and homekit hub device is also there. I want to make sure that both path will be active, device to hub to home app and device to custom app to my cloud, and both on matter ecosystem. The homekit sdk and matter support mentioned here https://developer.apple.com/apple-home/matter, are these two same thing?

Mic Button in Microsoft Web Chat Control Unresponsive in WKWebView After App Returns from Background (iOS)
We are integrating the Microsoft Web Chat Control inside a WKWebView in our iOS application. The microphone button (used for speech input) works as expected when the app is active. However, we are facing an issue when the app is sent to the background and then brought back to the foreground. Issue Details: When the app returns from background to foreground: 🔹 The mic button becomes unresponsive (taps are not recognized). 🔹 No permission prompt or speech functionality is triggered. 🔹 Other elements of the Web Chat control continue to work fine. This issue seems isolated to iOS and WKWebView usage. We have verified that microphone permissions are granted and there are no system-level blocks. Environment: Platform: iOS Web Container: WKWebView Microsoft Web Chat Version: Devanshu Kinariwala add version here iOS Version: iOS 18.3.1 Devices: iPhone 13, iPhone 14 Pro error in browser console [Error] A MediaStreamTrack ended due to a capture failure (x3) [Error] WebSocket connection to 'wss://directline.botframework.com/v3/directline/conversations/JQ1k0phVogeJ30ZQddBvAQ-in/stream?watermark=-&t=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImlmOEs0aFg4R1hXVnZkS3pwdFRFWFJveURTUSIsIng1dCI6ImlmOEs0aFg4R1hXVnZkS3pwdFRFWFJveURTUSIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJib3QiOiJhaWFhcy1xYS1jb252YWktYm90Iiwic2l0ZSI6InRWcW14cDBQZU9vIiwiY29udiI6IkpRMWswcGhWb2dlSjMwWlFkZEJ2QVEtaW4iLCJuYmYiOjE3NDI5NzE1MTgsImV4cCI6MTc0Mjk3MTU3OCwiaXNzIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9kaXJlY3RsaW5lLmJvdGZyYW1ld29yay5jb20vIiwiYXVkIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9kaXJlY3RsaW5lLmJvdGZyYW1ld29yay5jb20vIn0.Mx3MMVP3t9Ex36UW-YARskZLny0iORxc6-B0ewvNp0S-ivUjvOS43kZc0J5HoOgYRkoGaKemo00_JSkzryAbKKoSwqMjahf0VotqTZsJjoIgtyNJFfAYyGVriBHMV_6FfH_YEezDMD5puY6R89eM-atQOw-CfoClwrxn8jgVL5Kn19WdDZvmQwFIArklA7as8bboKcWv4PveEKptM9xCokttaGzv-S5pdbNETMoJzIhLcJDHmEVJ6oJ0TFs5XS7RGMSQlM_gs95TySzVjVL7XV6qEOt_A10lRzmx0PxPIUw_nqllEIbWFy5H7AfsxbKRtM1nLe4lRm1KS7_xw9dSlw' failed: The operation couldn’t be completed.

Is it possible to communicate with peripherals through the TypeC port of Apple 15 or above mobile phones?
I need to implement an app that exchanges data with peripherals through TypeC on Apple 15 phones, but I have two questions that I need to ask for help: Which library is used to communicate with peripherals through the TypeC port of the Apple mobile phone? Do peripherals need to pass MFi authentication before they can communicate with the App?

How can I get a cover-art image via Bluetooth BIP
I want to get Cover-Art Image over Bluetooth. From the SDP Discover iPhoneSE, it support Cover-Art Feature. I connect and config OBEX Channel with L2CAP ERTM, it is successful. I send connect_request the OBEX Connect, the iPhone always no any response, and l2cap s-frame response from iPhone always failed. From the Apple Developer, it need Apple Authentication Chip. Is it still necessary now? Are there any other ways to obtain album pictures?

Unable to Save Edited Word Files After Installing macOS 26 Beta on MacBook Air M3
Hello, I recently installed the macOS 26 beta version on my MacBook Air M3, and I've encountered an issue where edited Word files are failing to save. I’ve tried restarting my laptop and checking for updates, but the problem persists. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a specific setting I might have missed or any troubleshooting steps you recommend? Thank you for your assistance!

Tilde, back tick and Pipe are missing from keyboard
I opened a terminal window this morning and couldn't cd to /home. When I type a tilde, I get a paragraph symbol. Yesterday, my external keyboard could type a Pipe symbol, no such luck today. I ended up having to use hidutil to remap my keyboard and run keystrokes through terminal to restore what worked yesterday. When I look at the available English keyboards, they're all showing a paragraph symbol above the Tab key. Has anyone else run into this sudden keyboard change?

Example for AccessorySetupKit bluetoothTransportBriding
Hi there! I'm developing a dual-mode bluetooth accessory and would like to pair it through AccessorySetupKit. I'm using an ESP32 with Bluekitchen btstack. This supports CTKD, which seems to be a requirement for the Bluetooth transport bridging according the WWDC19 session 901. I've been in contact with the btstack developer and verified that I can get the device to generate an LTK for the classic transport when reading an encrypted attribute. I'm not able to get this to work with the bluetoothTransportBriding option with AccessorySetupKit though. What I've found so far is that if I omit the .bluetoothTransportBriding option during pairing I will get a pairing request when I read an encrypted attribute after connecting with the CBConnectPeripheralOptionEnableTransportBridgingKey option. If I accept this request it seems like the system automatically brings up the A2DP profile. However if I include .bluetoothTransportBriding and/or .bluetoothPairingLE this option does not pop up, but the system does not bring up the A2DP profile. In this case things seem to end up in a weird situation where the device doesn't show up for pairing in Bluetooth Settings either, making it impossible to manually connect for A2DP. Based on the AccessorySetupKit example from WWDC24 I've created a dice accessory firmware for ESP32 using btstack. The code for this is available here: https://github.com/ljodal/esp32-btstack-ctkd-test I've also tweaked the AccessorySetupKit example app for iOS to add the ASAccessory.SupportOptions. The code for that is available here: https://github.com/ljodal/accessorysetupkit-ctkd-test Is there any documentation available anywhere on what is expected of the device for Bluetooth Transport Bridging to work with AccessorySetupKit?

What kind of feedback is available through tvOS Bluetooth HID?
first post here and this is kinda a long shot. I’m working on a custom keypad project for a young man with some mobility issues that unfortunately prevents gestrue and voice control as UI options. id like to see if I can pull track metadata via a Bluetooth connection into a custom keyboard with a small screen. I know hid doesn’t support this but I was hoping maybe the API for iOS’s blueprint remote app could be leveraged. I haven’t don’t much with Apple previousl. Usually Roku and Crestron implantations but I’m hoping to see if I can accomplish something with Apple, without needing to implement any IP connection.

Homekit Accessory Audio config rejected
I am integrating a camera with HomeKit. The audio and video streams work in the HomeKit Accessory Tester, but they do not work when using the Home app on an iPhone (Failed to select audio config – Could not find the right match in the supported list. Session is not in progress). I have a single audio configuration: Opus 16kHz mono with a constant bitrate of 24kbps.
