When using iCloud account with push in Apple mail app. The badge number of unread email is not syncing across devices. If I read an email on my iPhone my iPad mail app badge won’t update until I click into the app and wait for the update. Is there any fix of this?

Hi, since a while I constantly receive the warning above and there is nothing to find on my Mac (Air M2) nor by searching the web. MacOS 15.1 Anybody an idea what this app/service is all about?

Dear all, I am seeking your assistance to finalize my registration in the Apple Developer Program. I have attempted to register multiple times using valid payment cards, but I received an email stating that my request would be processed within two business days, and that $99 would be deducted. However, two days have passed without any progress. I am unsure if the issue is related to using my friends' cards, despite their validity. In my last attempt, I provided a photo of my friend's ID card and his passport as proof of his consent for the deduction. Could the discrepancy between the cardholder's information and my registration details be the cause of the problem? Thank you.

Apple Watch doesn't vibrate for notifications version: 11.1 help please

I am developing an app which makes use of actionable notifications. On my code (the func userNotificationCenter function), I need to read my users from the local storage on the iPhone: let query: [String: Any] = [ kSecAttrService as String: "uio-auth", kSecAttrAccount as String: "users", kSecClass as String: kSecClassGenericPassword, kSecReturnData as String: true ] var result: AnyObject? SecItemCopyMatching(query as CFDictionary, &result) let ref = result as? Data But when the same code execute when I tap on the notification on the Apple Watch, it doesn't fetch anything. It now occurs to to me: Does it mean that when an actionable notification programmed for the iOS is displayed on the Apple Watch, it tries to access its own storage, and not the iPhone? If so, is there a nice way to pass the values to the watchOS so that when the callback for the actionable notifications run, it has then the data it needs?

Hello, since updating (last night) to developer beta 18.2, I no longer have email count numbers / badges showing. I don’t know if others are experiencing this, but thought I should report it.

Hi, I'm building an app that allows users to get real time data about trains in Portugal and the Metro system in Lisbon. I'm using SwiftUI for frontend. I would like to add a feature to the app, where the User can add a specific Train to their Favourites list and subscribe to notifications about the status of that Train so that they are aware of any disturbances. For example, 10 minutes before the train departure time, there would be an API call to fetch the train information, and a notification would be sent to the end-user with the status of the Train. Can someone tell me if this is possible to do? And if so, how to do it? Basically, I want to trigger an API call more-or-less at a specific time and, based on the data from the API, send a push notification to the User. Thanks in advance

I am using a Key to connect my notification server with APNS in order to send out notifications to users. I have recently added notifications to a second app of mine, using the same notification server to fire off notifications for both apps. However, any notifications going to the second app return the error InvalidProviderToken, where as I get no such issues when send notifications to the first app. Everything, including the payloads, are exactly the same between the two apps, the only difference is that the device IDs are attached to different apps. Does anyone know why/how this would happen and how I can resolve it?

Hey there, i created a independent Watch OS app and I configure push notification there. so on watch simulator I am able to get push notification every time. but today I test watch app to my real watch series 6 WatchOS 11. I got the permission alert I allowed it, and I am able to get the device token as well now if I try to send push notification to my real watch app I get this logs. Oct 22, 2024, 11:09:12.024 AM GMT+5 received by APNS Server Oct 22, 2024, 11:09:12.334 AM GMT+5 discarded as application was not registered why is that ? is there any body know's ? why i am not receiving remote notification on my real watch instead i get that my application is not register...

Over the past few weeks I've seen several people mention pushes sent via the sandbox haven't been getting delivered. Today I'm also seeing that (though pushes sent via production are fine). So it would appear to be down again. What's going on recently, any reason it's so unstable these last few weeks?

I have an iOS and watchOS app where both can run independently, I am not using WatchConnectivity to send data back and fourth. The issue I'm having is that if I schedule a local notification on the watch and the phone is unlocked, it will not show on the watch for about 10-15 seconds. If I uninstall the iOS app or have the phone locked, it will show immediately on the watch. To my understanding, this is somewhat the expected functionality but is there a way to bypass it? My app is a timer app and it really should not have a delay.

Regarding the latest news from apple below. I am not able to understand what exactly needs to be done. I can download RSA certificate from the link given but to include it in Trust store is something i am not able to get. can someone help me out here? " The Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. APNs will update the server certificates in sandbox on January 20, 2025, and in production on February 24, 2025. All developers using APNs will need to update their application’s Trust Store to include the new server certificate: SHA-2 Root : USERTrust RSA Certification Authority certificate. To ensure a smooth transition and avoid push notification delivery failures, please make sure that both old and new server certificates are included in the Trust Store before the cut-off date for each of your application servers that connect to sandbox and production. At this time, you don’t need to update the APNs SSL provider certificates issued to you by Apple."

Hi Everyone, I noticed that applicationIconBadgeNumber has been deprecated in iOS17. While there's a new method to set the badge number using setBadgeCount(_:withCompletionHandler:), I couldn't find a way to retrieve the current value. Previously we used to call UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber, to get the current value, which is deprecated now. Does anyone know how to get the current badge count? Thanks!

I'm attempting to leverage notifications in an app that is in Swift 6 language mode. I have the following code: func startLocationUpdates() { //if self.manager.authorizationStatus == .notDetermined { // self.manager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() //} self.logger.info("Starting location updates") Task { do { let updates = CLLocationUpdate.liveUpdates() for try await update in updates { if !self.updatesStarted { break } // End location updates by breaking out of the loop. self.lastUpdate = update if let loc = update.location { self.lastLocation = loc self.isStationary = update.stationary self.count += 1 self.logger.info("Location \(self.count): \(self.lastLocation)") } if lastUpdate!.insufficientlyInUse { let notification = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: "com.example.mynotification", content: notificationContent, trigger: nil) try await UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(notification) } } } catch { self.logger.error("Could not start location updates") } return } } As an aside, the above is directly taken from the following sample: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreLocation/adopting-live-updates-in-core-location. With Swift 6 language mode enable, this generates a compiler error for the statement: try await UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(notification) Sending main actor-isolated 'notification' to nonisolated instance method 'add' risks causing data races between nonisolated and main actor-isolated uses How can I fix this?

Our application streams live video with AVCaptureSession. When application is active and Airpods case is being opened at this time, popup message "Not Your Airpods..." is appeared over application and video session is suspended. I can see that application receives notification UIApplicationWillResignActiveNotification, so application becomes inactive at this time. Is there any ability to disable such pairing popup from Airpods or maybe intercept it inside our application? Because it affects our video streaming feature. Thanks.

Hello everyone, We have an app that implements in-app purchases, and we're using the notification settings outlined in this Apple Developer guide. Everything is functioning correctly in TestFlight, and our server successfully receives notifications from Apple. However, after releasing the app to production, we're no longer receiving these notifications, while the TestFlight version continues to work as expected. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thank you for your help!

There is an issue with our app when showing a dynamic watch notification. Our app would sometimes receive a push notification with extra payload. In wOS6, the notification would be sent to the watch and show a dynamic detailed notification based on the data within the notification. But ever since wOS7, the watch does not show the data that is being sent. We found out that the UNNotification that is being passed through in WKUserNotificationInterfaceController via. [didReceive:notification:](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/watchkit/wkusernotificationinterfacecontroller/2963125-didreceive) has an empty [userInfo](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unnotificationcontent/1649869-userinfo). I was wondering if anyone else have that issue. Or was there a change in wOS7 that prevents the userInfo from being received by the watch? Thanks!
