Error 8 in the NEHotspotConfigurationError domain is .internal, aka NEHotspotConfigurationErrorInternal. This error typically indicates that something went wrong in some sort of expected way, but we decided not to surface the exact cause [1]. This has come up a bunch of times before on the forums, and I have various titbits to share. To start, I want to address some specific cases: You’ll see this error if your app isn’t signed with the com.apple.developer.networking.HotspotConfiguration entitlement. To fix this, use Xcode’s Signing & Capabilities editor to add the Hotspot capability to your app. Historically developers reported a situation where once they encountered the error it would show up consistently, but then it would go away on restarting the device. If you see behaviour like that, that’s definitely a bug and I encourage you to file it as such. I have more about filing such bugs in Filing a Wi-Fi Bug Report. Of course, you have to wait to reproduce the error again before you’ll be able to file that bug, because the act of restarting cleared the issue. I’ve seen reports where such problems only occur on a specific type of device, for example, on iPhone 16 but not on earlier or later iPhones. That’s definitely something that Apple should investigate, and I recommend that you file a bug about it. If the problem is being reported by your users but you can’t reproduce it yourself, consider the various suggestions in Using a Sysdiagnose Log to Debug a Hard-to-Reproduce Problem. Assuming you’re still here (-: the next step is to determine whether the problem is specific to NEHotspotConfigurationManager or not. Try joining the accessory’s network from Settings > Wi-Fi. Does that also have problems? If so, that’s not something we can help you with here on the forums. The focus of the Apple Developer Forums is primarily to help developers with the APIs in Apple’s various platform SDKs [2]. We’re not set up to help accessory developers with Wi-Fi issues. However, there are still things you can do, as I explain in Filing a Wi-Fi Bug Report. At this point you have an error that: Persists across restarts Happens with all Apple devices You can reproduce Only affects NEHotspotConfigurationManager If that’s correct then there are a couple of things you might look at: Coerce the error to an NSError and print that. Does it reveal anything interesting? Also check the underlying error property (NSUnderlyingErrorKey) for hints. When reproducing the error, monitor the system log for log entries in the com.apple.networkextension subsystem. Do those offer any clues? Note For lots of hints and tips about the system log, see Your Friend the System Log. And finally, if you have questions about this case, feel free to start a thread here on the forums and we’ll try to help you out. Put it in the App & System Services > Networking subtopic and tag it with Network Extension.

Hi, I'v got the error by using NEHotspotConfiguration to connect a wifi spot but get:NEHotspotConfigurationErrorDomain code=8. I hope to get the same result as when scanning the code with the system camera. A pop-up window will appear, and I just need to click "Join" to successfully connect.

I am investigating a connectivity issue reported by a user running latest iOS 26.4 Public Beta on an iPhone 17 Pro Max. Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce this behavior on my end as I do not have access to an iPhone 17 Pro Max for testing, and my current devices do not exhibit the issue. However, the user's logs suggest a system-level networking issue : Symptoms: Flutter App (package dio): Requests fail with The connection errored: Failed host lookup: 'mydomain.com' Firebase SDK: Unable to fetch Firestore documents Duration: The outage is random, lasting between 5 to 15 minutes before self-resolving Scope: It affects both Wi-Fi and Cellular data By the way I found this report from another developer experiencing the exact same behavior: "I run a mobile app that has millions of users. As of 1-2 weeks ago, we started getting reports that the app isn't working (failing to connect). It then goes back to connecting anywhere between 5 to 15-20 mins later. Every single one of those users was running iOS 26.4 beta, and their phones ranged from iPhone 17 PRO Max to regular iPhone 17s, to iPhone 16 PROs and Maxs. The only other thing is that all these users also had Apple Private Relay enabled. During the time the app wasn't able to connect, other apps on their phones like YouTube, also failed to connect. The issue is persistent whether on Wifi or cellular, didn't matter. I upgraded my iPhone 16 PRO Max to iOS 26.4, and wasn't experiencing the issue. I enabled Private Relay - and a few mins later on my own phone, I couldnt connect on my own app, and YouTube/Gmail also were experincing issue. It self-resolved 5-10 mins later. But it kept happening throughout the day. I've tested Network reset, I've also re-installed the apps, both still continued to have those weird intermittent outages. I just updated the phone to the latest version that was released a day ago, so far I'm not experiencing it, but as you can imagine, this is such a weird behaviour that it's concerning for me that I can't figure out the exact way to replicate it." I asked the user to test with iCloud Private Relay disabled, and it immediately fixed the problem -> so maybe this suggests that it might be related to how Private Relay handles traffic or DNS resolution in this beta ? Are other developers seeing an increase in SocketException or host lookup failures on the 26.4 Beta? Is this a known regression related to Private Relay that is expected to be patched before the RC/Final release?

Hi Team, I want to retrieve the list of nearby Wi-Fi networks (SSIDs) directly inside the app. Currently, I can see the available Wi-Fi networks by going to Settings → Wi-Fi on the device, but I would like to access that scan list programmatically within my application. I am developing the app using the Angular Ionic platform. On Android, I am able to get the nearby Wi-Fi scan list using the npm package @capgo/capacitor-wifi (v8.1.8). However, on iOS, the scan results are not being returned. If anyone has experience with this or knows how to achieve Wi-Fi scanning on iOS in Ionic/Capacitor, please let me know. Thanks.

We have a Java application built for macOS. On the first launch, the application prompts the user to allow local network access. We've correctly added the NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription key to the Info.plist, and the provided description appears in the system prompt. After the user grants permission, the application can successfully connect to a local server using its hostname. However, the issue arises after the system is rebooted. When the application is launched again, macOS does not prompt for local network access a second time—which is expected, as the permission was already granted. Despite this, the application is unable to connect to the local server. It appears the previously granted permission is being ignored after a reboot. A temporary workaround is to manually toggle the Local Network permission off and back on via System Settings > Privacy & Security, which restores connectivity—until the next reboot. This behavior is highly disruptive, both for us and for a significant number of our users. We can reproduce this on multiple systems... The issues started from macOS Sequoia 15.0 By opening the application bundle using "Show Package Contents," we can launch the application via "JavaAppLauncher" without any issues. Once started, the application is able to connect to our server over the local network. This seems to bypass the granted permissions? "JavaAppLauncher" is also been used in our Info.plist file

Hello, I submitted a Network Extension entitlement request (Packet Tunnel Provider) and opened case 102837721995. The case history says Apple sent a message on March 12, but I did not receive it and cannot reply through the support portal. Could someone from Apple Developer Support check the case? Also, it is possible that I misunderstood something or submitted the wrong entitlement request. My application will use WireGuard to establish the VPN connection. If a different entitlement is required for this scenario, please let me know. Thank you.

Every now and again I end up helping a developer with a Wi-Fi issue. These fall into two groups: User-level Wi-Fi issues Development Wi-Fi issues A user-level Wi-Fi issue is one where the developer hasn’t created any of the products involved. An example of this is when you’re developing an app for an accessory and iOS is having problems connecting to that accessory but you don’t control the accessory’s firmware. In general, I recommend that you escalate such issues to the accessory vendor. They can then run their own investigation and, if necessary, file their own bug report. A development Wi-Fi issue is one that directly affects one of your products. For example, you’re developing a Wi-Fi accessory and iOS is having problems connecting to it. In that case, the onus is on you [1] to investigate why things are failing. If your conclusion is that iOS is behaving incorrectly, file a bug about that. IMPORTANT If you do file a bug in the context of some forums thread, please post your bug number to the thread, just for the record. When filing this sort of bug report it’s important to provide: Solid evidence that the problem is on the Apple side of the fence Enough information for Apple’s engineers to investigate it effectively Let’s start with that second point. If you can reproduce the problem reliably, install the Wi-Fi debug profile on your device, reproduce the problem, noting down a rough timestamp, and include the resulting logs and that timestamp in your bug report. Also, consider attaching a packet trace. There are three options here: Record a packet trace from the perspective of the Apple device. On iOS, use an RVI packet trace for this. Record a packet trace from the perspective of your accessory. Record a Wi-Fi level packet trace. You can do this from your Mac (see Recording a Wi-Fi Packet Trace) but it might be easier to do this with the infrastructure you used during the bring up of your accessory. It’s fine to include all three (-: Also include any relevant context about the issue. For example: If the issue is tied to a specific device model (In that case, it’d be good to include the above information for both the successful and failing cases.) If the problem shows up when joining from Settings > Wi-Fi, or whether it’s tied to a specific API, like NEHotspotConfigurationManager Finally, make sure to include an explanation of why you think this is an Apple bug, referencing specific items in the logs and packet traces that you attached. Of course, it’s only possible to do all of this if you can reproduce the problem. Investigating an intermittent issue based on reports coming in from users is much harder. It’s OK to file a bug about such issues, but your bug might not be actionable. At a minimum you should aim to include a sysdiagnose log with your bug. IMPORTANT This log has to be taken shortly after reproducing the problem. Don’t just attach any old log. One option is to request such a log from your users. I talk more about this in Using a Sysdiagnose Log to Debug a Hard-to-Reproduce Problem. You can also ask your users to file their own bugs using the Feedback Assistant app. It should automatically capture and attach a sysdiagnose log. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" [1] Well, your organisation. It’s rare to find a team where the same engineer works on both the iOS app and the accessory firmware. But if that’s you, good job!

On my iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max devices, running iOS 26.0, 26.0.1, and 26.1, Wi-Fi raw socket communication works flawlessly. Even after keeping the connection active for over 40 minutes, there are no disconnections during data transmission. However, on the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro, the raw socket connection drops within 20 seconds. Once it disconnects, the socket cannot reconnect unless the Wi-Fi module itself is reset. I believe this issue is caused by a bug in the iPhone 17 series’ communication module. I have looked into many cases, and it appears to be related to a bug in the N1 chipset. Are there any possible solutions or workarounds for this issue?

We have a macOS system extension with NETransparentProxyProvider which is able to intercept traffic and handle it. We also wanted to setup few search domains from our network extension. However, unlike PacketTunnelProvider, NEDNSSettings are completely ignored with NETransparentProxyProvider. So whats the best way to setup few DNS search domains when using NETransparentProxyProvider.

Hello there, Starting from iOS 18.4, support was included for QWAC Validation and QCStatements. Using the official QWAC Validator at: https://eidas.ec.europa.eu/efda/qwac-validation-tool I was able to check that the domain "eidas.ec.europa.eu" has a valid QWAC certificate. However, when trying to obtain the same result using the new API, I do not obtain the same result. Here is my sample playground code: import Foundation import Security import PlaygroundSupport PlaygroundPage.current.needsIndefiniteExecution = true @MainActor class CertificateFetcher: NSObject, URLSessionDelegate { private let url: URL init(url: URL) { self.url = url super.init() } func start() { let session = URLSession(configuration: .ephemeral, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil) let task = session.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in if let error = error { print("Error during request: \(error)") } else { print("Request completed.") } } task.resume() } nonisolated func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void) { guard let trust = challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust else { completionHandler(.cancelAuthenticationChallenge, nil) return } if let certificates = SecTrustCopyCertificateChain(trust) as? [SecCertificate] { self.checkQWAC(certificates: certificates) } let credential = URLCredential(trust: trust) completionHandler(.useCredential, credential) } nonisolated func checkQWAC(certificates: [SecCertificate]) { let policy = SecPolicyCreateSSL(true, nil) var trust: SecTrust? guard SecTrustCreateWithCertificates(certificates as CFArray, policy, &trust) == noErr, let trust else { print("Unable to create SecTrust") return } var error: CFError? guard SecTrustEvaluateWithError(trust, &error) else { print("Trust evaluation failed") return } guard let result = SecTrustCopyResult(trust) as? [String : Any] else { print("No result dictionary") return } let qwacStatus = result[kSecTrustQWACValidation as String] let qcStatements = result[kSecTrustQCStatements as String] print("QWAC Status: \(String(describing: qwacStatus))") print("QC Statements: \(String(describing: qcStatements))") } } let url = URL(string: "https://eidas.ec.europa.eu/")! let fetcher = CertificateFetcher(url: url) fetcher.start() Which prints: QWAC Status: nil QC Statements: nil Request completed. Am I making a mistake while using the Security framework? I would greatly appreciate any help or guidance you can provide.

We’re having an iPad issue accessing the local network with iPadOS 26.3. We have an automation system that tests our app on an iPad using accessibility tags. the XCTest test code sends messages from the iPad via TCP/IP to setup external test equipment. The messages abruptly stopped transmitting across the iPad blood-brain barrier with iPadOS 26.3 (26.2.1 and earlier works fine). The technique that worked involved installing a helper app with the same bundleID as our app, allowing the helper app to access the network, and when our app runs it has network access through the helper. It’s clever and kludgey. Forums that we referenced in the past: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/663858 TN3179: Understanding local network privacy | Apple Developer Documentation I suspect that something was changed in 26.3 that closed our window. I need two things: ID what is different in 26.3 and fix the automation system. If there’s a new way for XCUITest code to access the local network I’m happy to try it out.

Hello, We are facing what we believe is a compatibility issue with two networking APIs. If the Network extension VPN configuration has includeAllNetworks flag enabled and the NEHotspotHelper is registered. The user has internet connection but it is blocked, and there user will get internet back only after restarting the device. VPN Configuration is as below while connecting to VPN, { localizedDescription = WLVPN WireGuard Configuration enabled = YES protocolConfiguration = { serverAddress = <18-char-str> passwordReference = {length = 20, bytes = 0x67656e70ed0d05c06b1b4896bf4fef2031e1a92d} disconnectOnSleep = NO includeAllNetworks = YES excludeLocalNetworks = YES excludeCellularServices = YES excludeAPNs = YES excludeDeviceCommunication = YES enforceRoutes = NO providerBundleIdentifier = com.wlvpn.ios.consumervpn.network-extension } onDemandEnabled = NO onDemandRules = () } After running the code shown below. Regardless if the VPN is connected or not, the user needs to restart his device to regain internet access. private let neHelperQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.wlvpn.ios.consumervpn.hotspot", attributes: DispatchQueue.Attributes.concurrent) let options: [String: NSObject] = [kNEHotspotHelperOptionDisplayName : "" as NSObject] let status = NEHotspotHelper.register(options: nil, queue: neHelperQueue) { cmd in NSLog("Received command: \(cmd.commandType.rawValue)") } We need to use the includeAllNetworks flag to prevent the novel "Tunnel vision" vulnerability. Can we please have some help getting confirmation if both functionalities are compatible or if there's a way to enable them at the same time?

We are assisting a client with their app integration. The client believes that NEPacketTunnelProvider, NEHotspotHelper, and NEHotspotManager extensions stop functioning if the containing app hasn't been launched by the user within some recent window (e.g. 30, 60, or 90 days). We haven't been able to find any documentation supporting this claim. Specifically, we'd like to know: Is there any app launch recency requirement that would cause iOS to stop invoking a registered NEHotspotHelper or NEHotspotManager configuration? Is there any app launch recency requirement that would cause iOS to tear down or prevent activation of a NEPacketTunnelProvider? More generally, does iOS enforce any kind of "staleness" check on apps that provide Network Extension or Hotspot-related functionality, where not being foregrounded for some period causes the system to stop honoring their registrations? If such a mechanism exists, we'd appreciate any pointers to documentation or technical notes describing the behavior and timeframes involved. If it doesn't exist, confirmation would help us guide our client's debugging in the right direction. Thank you.

I am referencing: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/pausing-and-resuming-uploads Specifically: You can’t resume all uploads. The server must support the latest resumable upload protocol draft from the HTTP Working Group at the IETF. Also, uploads that use a background configuration handle resumption automatically, so manual resuming is only needed for non-background uploads. I have control over both the app and the server, and can't seem to get it to work automatically with a background url session. In other words, making multiple requests to get the offset then upload, easy but I am trying to leverage this background configuration resume OS magic. So anyone know what spec version does the server/client need to implement? The docs reference version 3, however the standard is now at like 11. Of course, I am trying out 3. Does anyone know how exactly this resume is implemented in iOS, and what exactly it takes care of? I assumed that I can just POST to a generic end point, say /files, then the OS receives a 104 Location, and saves that. If the upload is interrupted, when the OS resumes the upload, it has enough information to figure out how to resume from the exact offset, either by making a HEAD request to get the offset, or handle a 409. I am assuming it does this, as if it doesn't, the 'uploads that use a background configuration handle resumption automatically' is useless, if it just restarts from 0. Note, of course making individual POST/HEAD/PATCH requests manually works, but at that point I'm not really leveraging any OS auto-magic, and am just consuming an API that could really implement any spec. This won't work in the background, as the OS seems to disallow random HTTP requests when it wakes the app for URLSession background resumes. As of right now, I have it 'partially' working, insofar as the app does receive the 104 didReceiveInformationalResponse url delegate call, however it seems to then hang; it stops sending bytes, seemingly when the 104 is received. However, the request does not complete. In other words, it doesn't seem to receive a client timeout or otherwise indicate the request has finished. Right now, I am starting a single request, POSTing to a /files end point, i.e. I am not getting the location first, then PATCHing to that, as if I do that, the OS 'automatic' resuming fails with a 409, i.e. it doesn't seem to make a HEAD request and/or use the 409 offset correction then continue with the PATCH. Any idea what could be going on?

1) Blocked page UX When a URL is blocked, the browser typically shows a generic error like “"Safari cannot open the page because it couldn’t load any data,” with no indication that the page was blocked by a policy. Is there any plan to add an API that allows developers to present a custom “blocked” page or remediation action, similar to NEFilterControlProvider’s remediationMap? Even a minimal hook (custom HTML, deep link, or support URL) would make the experience clearer for users. 2) Cross‑app link‑opening behavior With a block rule in place, direct navigation in Safari is blocked as expected. However, tapping the same URL in a messaging app (e.g., WhatsApp) opens Safari - and the page loads, not blocked. Repro steps: Configure a URL Filter extension that blocks https://example.com. Case A: Open a browser and type the URL in the address bar → blocked (expected). Case B: Tap the same URL in WhatsApp (or another messenger) → a browser opens and the page loads (unexpected). iOS version - 26.0

Is it somehow possible to get the transport layer (UDP and TCP) payload amounts for TLS or QUIC connections established via the Network framework? (From within the app itself that establishes the connections.) I am currently using the ntstat.h kernel socket calls, but I hope there is a simpler solution. With ntstat, I have not yet been able to observe a specific connection. I have to search for the connection I am looking in all (userspace) connections.

Hello team, I am trying to find out a way to block urls in the chrome browser if it is found in local blocked list cache. I found URL Filter Network very much suitable for my requirement. But I see at multiple places that this solution is only for Enterprise level or MDM or supervised device. So can I run this for normal user ? as my targeting audience would be bank users. One more thing how can I test this in development environment if we need supervised devices and do we need special entitlement ? When trying to run sample project in the simulator then getting below error
