Hi, We’re seeing our build system (Gradle) get stuck in sendto system calls while trying to communicate with other processes via the local interface over UDP. To the end user it appears that the build is stuck or they will receive an error “Timeout waiting to lock ***. It is currently in use by another Gradle instance”. But when the process is sampled/profiled, we can see one of the threads is stuck in a sendto system call. The only way to resolve the issue is to kill -s KILL <pid> the stuck Gradle process.

It doesn’t seem to matter that the process is on the “allow” list. We’re using Gradle 7.6.4, 8.0.2 and 8.14.1 in various repositories, so the version doesn’t seem to matter, neither does which repo we use. The most reliable way to reproduce is to run two Gradle builds at the same time or very quickly after each other. We would really appreciate a fix for this as it really negatively affects the developer experience. I've raised FB19916240 for this. Many thanks,

I have an app with lots of networking calls that are currently done through URLSession. We would like to implement the new carried constrained entitlements and begin moving data through the ultra constrained network path for core features of our application. I have successfully implemented the NWPathMonitor to identify when the current network path is ultra constrained and I have been consistently on a physical device in a real world environment. I'm aware that we will not be able to use URLSession to do this from other posts in this forum like this one. Because of this problem with URLSession I am attempting to fallback to using NWConnection when the current path is ultra constrained. I have setup a NWConnection with the NWParameters.allowUltraConstrainedPaths set to true. The request works perfectly when connected to wifi or cellular. However, it does not work at all when the current path is ultra constrained. When attempting this request through my NWConnection I receive an error that says: The operation couldn’t be completed. (Network.NWError error 50 - Network is down) Is this expected? I have confirmed my physical device is connecting to carrier provided satellite and I have been able to load data in other ios apps from Apple like the music app while on this carrier constrained connection. If this is not the correct way to move data when the path is ultra constrained what is the correct way?

NEAppProxyUDPFlow contains below property: open var localEndpoint: NWEndpoint? { get } Why is localEndpoint not available for NEAppProxyTCPFlow? Is there a way to determine the source port of a flow of type NEAppProxyTCPFlow within the following method of NETransparentProxyProvider? override func handleNewFlow(_ flow: NEAppProxyFlow) -> Bool {

The Wi‑Fi Alliance’s Wi‑Fi Aware data communication uses IPv6. However, in Chapter 53 “Wi‑Fi Aware” of the Accessory Design Guidelines for Apple Devices, Release R26, it is stated that “The Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) for IPv6 address resolution is not supported.” This has caused confusion among developers: Does Apple’s Wi‑Fi Aware data communication actually use IPv6? What is the impact of “The Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) for IPv6 address resolution is not supported” in Apple’s implementation?

I have a question. I work for a mobile operator, and when you insert the SIM, the default APN is automatically configured. However, afterward, using the internal Device Manager platform, we send the corresponding APN of an MVNO to that MSISDN. However, the iPhone device (any model, recent iOS versions) receives the notification of the APN change, but it doesn't reflect the change in the APN settings menu. Do you know how we could make the iPhone device reflect the APN change?

We currently supporting proxy app with Tunnel.appEx and PacketTunnelProvider. Some users report about constant error "The VPN session failed because an internal error occurred." on VPN start (which fails rapidly). This error occur mostly after user updated app with active VPN. Rebooting device solves the problem and it doesnt come again, but it is still very frustrating. I can provide any required info about app setup to solve this issue if you need. Thanks

Hello everyone, Last year I built an application for tvOS and iPadOS that enables device-to-device communication. I based it on Apple’s sample code, available here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/Network/building-a-custom-peer-to-peer-protocol At that time, everything worked flawlessly. However, this year I had to revisit the project to add new features, and now it no longer works as expected. The first time the app runs it connects fine, but if we relaunch it (on either the iPad, the Apple TV, or both), the connection fails. Most importantly, this is not an issue with my own code — I tested it directly with the original Apple sample code, and the exact same problem occurs there too. Here’s what I see in the logs: nw_endpoint_flow_setup_channel [C1 TicTacToe,65E91B02-890E-4D30-88B8-CE2AB9677BF9 in_progress channel-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), viable, interface: utun0, scoped, ipv6)] nexus assignment error Connection refused nw_endpoint_flow_failed_with_error [C1 TicTacToe,65E91B02-890E-4D30-88B8-CE2AB9677BF9 in_progress channel-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), viable, interface: utun0, scoped, ipv6)] already failing, returning code-block This happens right after I select the iPad from the device list and try to connect. What’s strange is that the interface being used is utun0. I don’t have a VPN or iCloud Private Relay enabled. I also tried running the app through the iPad’s personal hotspot, but I get the same error. The only workaround I’ve found so far is to restart the Apple TV. Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there any known solution or workaround? Tested on tvOS 18.6 and iPadOS 18.3.2 / 18.6.

In Low Power Mode or after the iPhone has been idle, On-Demand rules fire and StartTunnel runs. Subsequent calls to createTCPConnectionThroughTunnel intermittently fail with an error. Is NetworkExtension known to behave differently under Low Power Mode that might cause this?

But the NMI and NDI of Samsung's Wi Fi Aware are not the same MAC address. May I ask Apple engineers why they are different from Samsung？

Our goal is to establish a Wi‑Fi Aware data path (NDP) between Apple and Android devices. Apple will act as the Publisher, and Android will act as the Subscriber. Apple-to-Android pairing has already been completed. The Android device can be normally displayed on the Apple official Wi-Fi Aware Sample. However, the indicator is not green. During pairing, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingSetupSucceeded. During pairing verification, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingVerificationSucceed. The Android side sends an NDP request to Apple (as shown in the figure 1), but Apple does not reply. Note: Qualcomm’s NDI and NMI are different. In addition, after Apple-to-Apple pairing is completed, the paired device will be recorded in “Settings → Privacy &amp; Security → Paired Devices”. However, after Android-to-Apple pairing is completed, the device is not saved to this list. My iPhone model: iPhone 13, iOS 26.0 (23A5287g).

I cannot find in the documentation and samples how exactly the Bloom filter is generated. Is there any code sample for that?

Apple is encouraging VPN apps on macOS to transition to Network Extension APIs, if they haven't done so yet, see: TN3165: Packet Filter is not API WWDC25: Filter and tunnel network traffic with NetworkExtension Using Network Extension is fine for VPN apps that are distributed via the Mac App Store. Users get one pop-up requesting permission to add VPN configurations and that's it. However, VPN apps that are distributed outside of the App Store (using Developer ID) cannot use Network Extension in the same way, such apps need to install a System Extension first (see TN3134: Network Extension provider deployment). Installing a System Extension is a very poor user experience. There is a pop-up informing about a system extension, which the user has to manually enable. The main button is "OK", which only dismisses the pop-up and in such case there is little chance that the user will be able to find the correct place to enable the extension. The other button in that pop-up navigates to the correct screen in System Settings, where the user has to enable a toggle. Then there is a password prompt. Then the user has to close the System Settings and return to the app. This whole dance is not necessary for VPN apps on the Mac App Store, because they work with "app extensions" rather than "system extensions". As a developer of a VPN app that is distributed outside of the App Store, my options are: Implement VPN functionality in an alternative way, without Network Extension. This is discouraged by Apple. Use a System Extension with Network Extension. This is going to discourage my users. I have submitted feedback to Apple: FB19631390. But I wonder, why did Apple create this difference in the first place? Is there a chance that they will either improve the System Extension installation process or even allow "app extensions" outside of the Mac App Store?

I filed FB19631435 about this just now. Basically: starting with 15.6, we've had reports (internally and outternally) that after some period of time, networking fails so badly that it can't even acquire a DHCP lease, and the system needs to be rebooted to fix this. The systems in question all have at least 2 VPN applications installed; ours is a transparent proxy provider, and the affected system also had Crowdstrike's Falcon installed. A customer system reported seemingly identical failures on their systems; they don't have Crowdstrike, but they do have Cyberhaven's. Has anyone else seen somethng like this? Since it seems to involve three different networking extensions, I'm assuming it's due to an interaction between them, not a bug in any individual one. But what do I know? 😄

This is a major issue. After my iPhone 12 Pro was upgraded to iOS 26 beta 6, Apple's official Wi-Fi Aware Sample APP crashed immediately and couldn't be opened. It just force closes. Has any developer encountered this problem?

Hello there, I am trying to add Nearby Interaction into my project, but it is not appear into +capabilities.

Hello, I am new to App development, so I am looking for some advice. I want to develop an app for iPhone, which downloads files (pdf, jpg)from a server to the local storage. I also want to get data from the server to be used in my app. This could be a database access or just simple xml files. I want a secure access based on userid and password. Since in a later version, my app should also run on Android Phones, I am reluctant to use iCloud. I was thinking sftp, but that does not seem to be supported for iOS.

We have an application which is written in Swift, which activates Transparent Proxy network extension. Our Transparent Proxy module is a system extension, which is exposing an app proxy provider interface (We are using NETransparentProxyProvider class and in extension’s Info.plist we use com.apple.networkextension.app-proxy key.) We are using JAMF MDM profile for installing our transparent proxy in customer environment. We are using VPN payload(https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn) for this network system extension. This payload does not have any field for order. As per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn/transparentproxy-data.dictionary documentation there is another payload for TransparentProxy and we could create a Transparent Proxy profile using iMazingProfile Editor. Noticed that, if we add the Order attribute to the VPN/TransparentProxy payload, while installing the extension, the save to preferences fails with "Error in saving TP configuration in updateOnDemandRule permission denied" error. Can we use this Order field to ordering the installed Transparent Proxy extension in a machine? Customer devices will likely have other Transparent Proxy network extensions as well. We want to allow the Customer to control the order in which each Transparent Proxy network extension receives the network traffic. How can we set the order of the Transparent proxy extension that can be deployed using MDM profile with VPN/TransparentProxy payload? Attached the TransparentProxy payload profile for the reference.

Hello, I am currently investigating if we can disable usage of QUIC on application level. I know we can set enable_quic from /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd.plist to false but it will have a global impact since this is a system file, all the applications on machine will stop using QUIC. I don't want that. What i am looking for is to disable QUIC only for my application. Is there any way i can modify URLSession object in my application and disable QUIC? or modify URLSessionConfiguration so system will not use QUIC?
