I. am working on an app that uses automounted files using nfsv4 where the server has zfs filesystems. As a test I've created a very simple example and the directory in question seems to automount correctly, but when I try to access it, I get strange behavior. The directory is mounted on is /System/Volumes/Data/mnt/subdir and I can change to that directory just fine. However I get the following: 63 rrsum@Anywhere:subdata% pwd /System/Volumes/Data/mnt/subdata 64 rrsum@Anywhere:subdata% ls -la total 3 drwxr-xr-x 3 nobody nobody 4 Jan 10 13:03 . dr-xr-xr-x 3 root wheel 2 Jan 8 17:27 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nobody 3 Jan 9 11:20 dir -rw-r--r-- 1 nobody nobody 12 Jan 10 13:09 file.txt 65 rrsum@Anywhere:subdata% cd dir cd: string not in pwd: ls The directory appears in the 'ls -la' properly, but I cannot cd to it.

I'm experiencing a contradictory validation issue with DeviceActivityReportExtension that creates an impossible situation: The Problem: Without NSExtensionPrincipalClass in Info.plist → App Store Connect rejects upload with: "Missing Info.plist values. No values for NSExtensionMainStoryboard or NSExtensionPrincipalClass found" With NSExtensionPrincipalClass → Local install fails with: "defines either an NSExtensionMainStoryboard or NSExtensionPrincipalClass key, which is not allowed for the extension point com.apple.deviceactivityui.report-extension" Setup: Extension point: com.apple.deviceactivityui.report-extension Using SwiftUI with @main attribute and DeviceActivityReportExtension protocol Xcode 16.2, iOS 17.6 deployment target Code structure: @main struct SpoolReport: DeviceActivityReportExtension { var body: some DeviceActivityReportScene { // Report scenes here } } The extension builds and runs perfectly without NSExtensionPrincipalClass, but cannot be uploaded to App Store Connect. Adding the key allows upload but breaks local installation. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround or correct Info.plist configuration for DeviceActivityReportExtension? Thank you!

As title says. Surely rendering bitmaps is something the hardware could handle, right? Please enable MKTileOverlay for watchOS.

I set up a sandbox account to test in-app purchases in my development app. I went to settings > dev > sandbox accounts and updated my login in the app store. But I received a 'block'; I can no longer download new versions or anything from the store. I've already removed the sandbox account, and even using my real Apple ID, I can't use the functions.

Hi, I'm experiencing an issue with my app. I use Firebase as my server, and it is great. Still, there is one issue: when I send push notifications from my app to users, the users will get the notification if the app is open, but not when it is closed. I have tried many solutions to fix it, even asking AI, but the issue is still there. I would be happy to give you access to Firebase and the Xcode workspace, as I have no clue how to fix it.

I am a new dev in this space. I need to know how you guys setup a trial period correctly. I am using React Native and RevenueCat SDK. It seems a lot more complicated than it should be. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hello guys, i need a little help. Im building an alarm clock app, pretty good one, and i have my own sounds i want to use as the alarm ring but notifications on apple cant work when the phone is turned off or the device is in silent mode (Or at least thats how i understand it) unless they have this feature called critical alerts that lets you have notifications even when the phone is turned off or silented. Without this, the phone can do just one beep and only when you open the notification, then it starts ringing but how is this supposed to wake you up? Alarmy has this worked out fine and i cant figure out how, maybe someone here knows. Im thinking maybe they have the critical alerts enabled but then i dont know why Apple would approve theirs and not mine. I tried to submit for the critical alerts feature but apple didn’t approve it saying the app is not the use case and im kinda lost. The whole app could be ruined because of this. So my question is. is there any way how i can use my custom sounds as a notifications on ios even if the phone is turned off or in silent mode+turned off and the app is not straight up running without being approved for critical alerts? Somehow like alarmy does it but i dont know if they have the critical alerts or not. Thank you very much for any kind of help 🙏. For everyone whos reading this, take care!

Hello, Is there a 2-device limit for CoreBluetooth on visionOS 2.1? My app connects to 4 BLE peripherals on iOS but fails at the 3rd device on Vision Pro. The 3rd call to centralManager.connect() is successful and the peripheral enters .connecting state, but didConnect never fires and it stays in .connecting forever. No errors reported. First 2 devices work perfectly. Same code on iOS connects all 4. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any documentation I can refer to that states something like this? Environment: visionOS 2.1, CoreBluetooth, Apple Vision Pro. My BLE Peripherals are running on nRF52840.

When using CBPeripheralManager in the peripheral role on iPhone 17 series devices (iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro) running iOS 26.1 and above, the delegate method peripheralManager:central:didSubscribeToCharacteristic: is never called when a third-party BLE central device attempts to connect and subscribe to a characteristic. This functionality works correctly on all previous iPhone models and iOS versions. (This worked previously for the same iPhone 17 Air/Pro when running iOS 26.0.1.)

We have a Matter 1.2 certified device, with device type "On/Off Light Switch" (0x0103) that we are launching soon. The last tests include the updatability via DCL published updates: showing up immediately via Google Home, and Home Assistant not showing up at all in Apple Home, waited for >1 week We successfully tested with the TestNet DCL profile.

Hello everybody! Does anybody know how to set default values for string array intent field provided dynamically? I want to have preset array field values just after widget added I have a simple accessory widget with circular and rectangular representation (the first one is for 1 currency value and the second one is for 3 values). I created CurrencyWidgets.intentdefinition and added AccessoryCurrency custom intent. Here I added string parameter field currencyCode. For this parameter I set the following options: Supports Multiple Values Fixed Size (AccessoryCircular = 1, AccessoryRectangular = 3) User can edit value in Shortcuts Options are provided dynamically Then I created CurrencyTypeIntent extension and added IntentHandler for my custom intent AccessoryCurrency. The code is below class IntentHandler: INExtension, AccessoryCurrencyIntentHandling { override func handler(for intent: INIntent) -> Any { self }     func provideCurrencyCodeOptionsCollection(for intent: AccessoryCurrencyIntent) async throws -> INObjectCollection<NSString> {         return INObjectCollection(items: [NSString("USD"), NSString("EUR"), NSString("RUB"), NSString("CNY")])    } func defaultCurrencyCode(for intent: AccessoryCurrencyIntent) -> [String]? {      return ["USD", "EUR", "RUB"]    } } The problem is in func defaultCurrencyCode(...): when I return something except nil (for example ["USD"] or ["USD", "EUR", "RUB"]) then I got a broken widget. It hangs in a placeholder state in lock screen and at add widget UI (see the image below). Otherwise when I return nil then my widget works fine. But when I try to customise widget then I don't have default values for my currencyCode field, only Chose placeholders. At the same time everything works fine for the single string parameter (without "Supports Multiple Values"). Does anybody know how to make default parameters work for array (multiple) field?

We're updating a FileProvider-based app which was written for Big Sur to recent macOS. The system requires that the extension be manually enabled by the user in System Preferences -- either under Extensions > Added Extensions, Privacy & Security > Extensions > Added Extensions, or in newer versions General > Login Items & Extensions. Is there a programmatic (preferably Swift) or installer-based way to enable this checkbox-- or at least to detect if it has been enabled for a particular app, and if not bring up the appropriate pane of Preferences? (For which I'd need a complete OS-version-specific list of which pane to bring up.) (I can detect whether our particular NSFileProviderDomain has its userEnabled flag set after it's defined during the mounting process, but I'd rather be able to detect / set it during initial setup.)

App out of memory and killed by Jetsam event seems not report to MetricKit diagnostic, it only contains crash or watch dog kill (scene create or scene update). So I want to ask to report these issues to MetricKit

Description Enterprise users are experiencing VPN resource access failures after upgrading to macOS Tahoe. Investigation indicates that configd (specifically IPMonitor) is incorrectly re-ranking network interfaces after a connectivity failure with probe server. This results in DNS queries routing through the physical network adapter (en0) instead of the VPN virtual adapter, even while the tunnel is active. This behaviour is not seen in previous macOS versions. Steps to Reproduce: Connect to an enterprise VPN (e.g., Ivanti Secure Access). Trigger a transient network condition where the Apple probe server is unreachable. For example make the DNS server down for 30 sec. Observe the system routing DNS queries for internal resources to the physical adapter. Expected Results The: VPN virtual interface should maintain its primary rank for enterprise DNS queries regardless of the physical adapter's probe status. Actual Results: IPMonitor detects an UplinkIssue, deprioritizes the VPN interface, and elevates the physical adapter to a higher priority rank. Technical Root Cause & Logs: The system logs show IPMonitor identifying an issue and modifying the interface priority at 16:03:54: IPMonitor Detection: The process identifies an inability to reach the Apple probe server and marks en0 with an advisory: Log snippet 2026-01-06 16:03:53.956399+0100 localhost configd[594]: [com.apple.SystemConfiguration:IPMonitor] configd[594] SetInterfaceAdvisory(en0) = UplinkIssue (2) reason='unable to reach probe server' Interface Re-ranking: Immediately following, IPMonitor recalculates the rank, placing the physical service ID at a higher priority (lower numerical rank) than the VPN service ID (net.pulsesecure...): Log snippet 2026-01-06 16:03:53.967935+0100 localhost configd[594]: [com.apple.SystemConfiguration:IPMonitor] 0. en0 serviceID=50CD9266-B097-4664-BFE6-7BAFCC5E9DC0 addr=192.168.0.128 rank=0x200000d 2026-01-06 16:03:53.967947+0100 localhost configd[594]: [com.apple.SystemConfiguration:IPMonitor] 1. en0 serviceID=net.pulsesecure.pulse.nc.main addr=192.168.0.128 rank=0x2ffffff 3.Physical adapter Is selected as Primary Interface: 2026-01-06 16:03:53.968145+0100 localhost configd[594]: [com.apple.SystemConfiguration:IPMonitor] 50CD9266-B097-4664-BFE6-7BAFCC5E9DC0 is the new primary IPv4 configd[594]: 50CD9266-B097-4664-BFE6-7BAFCC5E9DC0 is the new primary DNS Packet Trace Evidence Wireshark confirms that DNS queries for enterprise-specific DNS servers are being originated from the physical IP (192.168.0.128) instead of the virtual adapter: Time: 16:03:54.084 Source: 192.168.0.128 (Physical Adapter) Destination: 172.29.155.115 (Internal VPN DNS Server) Result: Connectivity Failure (Queries sent outside the tunnel)

Recently, we completed a merger with our parent company. We are currently integrated with Apple Pay in accordance with the “Apple Pay Payment Processing on the Web” guidelines. Due to the change in the legal entity, we proceeded with the account migration process as outlined below: Creation of a new Apple Developer account and a new Apple Pay Identifier Removal of the Merchant Domain (dc2-web.happy.co.kr) from the existing Identifier Registration of the Merchant Domain (dc2-web.happy.co.kr) under the new Identifier Using the Merchant Domain registered under the new Identifier and the Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate issued from the new Identifier, we attempted to obtain an Apple Pay session by sending requests to the following endpoint: https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession However, we are intermittently receiving failure responses with an HTTP 400 status code. With regard to these intermittent failures, we would like to inquire whether there is any propagation delay on Apple’s servers when an Apple Pay Identifier is removed and re-registered under a new account, or if there could be any other possible causes for this behavior. We would appreciate your guidance on this matter.

手机型号：iPhone 13 Pro iOS版本号：iOS 18.6.2 (22G100) 用户开启了应用的系统通知功能，在收到离线推送后应用右上角展示未读消息数。在APP启动或者从后台恢复的时候，应用会用如下方法清理应用桌面图标的未读数角标。但是在部分机型上，应用转为“后台模式”时仍然会出现一个未读角标，且每次都是一个固定值；如果直接kill进程就不会出现未读角标。请问如何能够【完全】清理消息未读数，确保不会在退后台的时候再次出现呢？ [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:0]; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications]; if (@available(iOS 16.0, *)) { [[UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter] setBadgeCount:0 withCompletionHandler:nil]; [[UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter] removeAllPendingNotificationRequests]; [[UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter] removeAllPendingNotificationRequests]; } UNMutableNotificationContent *content = [[UNMutableNotificationContent alloc] init]; content.badge = @(-1); UNNotificationRequest *request = [UNNotificationRequest requestWithIdentifier:@"clearBadge" content:content trigger:nil]; [[UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter] addNotificationRequest:request withCompletionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) { // Do nothing }];

There are many units which are inverse of standard units, e.g. wave period vs Hz, pace vs speed, Siemens vs Ohms, ... Dimension can be subclassed to create the custom units. How to extend Measurement.converted( to: )? I was looking at somehow using UnitConverter and subclass to something like UnitConverterInverse. Thoughts?

I've spent a few months writing an app that uses SwiftData with inheritance. Everything worked well until I tried adding CloudKit support. To do so, I had to make all relationships optional, which exposed what appears to be a bug. Note that this isn't a CloudKit issue -- it happens even when CloudKit is disabled -- but it's due to the requirement for optional relationships. In the code below, I get the following error on the second call to modelContext.save() when the button is clicked: Could not cast value of type 'SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier' (0x1ef510b68) to 'SimplePersistenceIdentifierTest.Computer' (0x1025884e0). I was surprised to find zero hit when Googling "Could not cast value of type 'SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier'". Some things to note: Calling teacher.computers?.append(computer) instead of computer.teacher = teacher results in the same error. It only happens when Teacher inherits Person. It only happens if modelContext.save() is called both times. It works if the first modelContext.save() is commented out. If the second modelContext.save()is commented out, the error occurs the second time the model context is saved (whether explicitly or implicitly). Keep in mind this is a super simple repro written to generate on demand the error I'm seeing in a normal app. In my app, modelContext.save() must be called in some places to update the UI immediately, sometimes resulting in the error seconds later when the model context is saved automatically. Not calling modelContext.save() doesn't appear to be an option. To be sure, I'm new to this ecosystem so I'd be thrilled if I've missed something obvious! Any thoughts are appreciated. import Foundation import SwiftData import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) var modelContext var body: some View { VStack { Button("Do it") { let teacher = Teacher() let computer = Computer() modelContext.insert(teacher) modelContext.insert(computer) try! modelContext.save() computer.teacher = teacher try! modelContext.save() } } } } @Model class Computer { @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var teacher: Teacher? init() {} } @Model class Person { init() {} } @available(iOS 26.0, macOS 26.0, *) @Model class Teacher: Person { @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify, inverse: \Computer.teacher) public var computers: [Computer]? = [] override init() { super.init() } }

Hello! I have read most of the "Background Tasks Resources" here https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/707503 - but still have a few questions that I need clarified. To provide our context, our usecase is that our user wants to upload files to our servers. This is an active decision by the user to initiate the upload, but we also want make sure the files are uploaded, even if the user chooses to background our app. If we use a URLSession.backgroundto initiate the uploadTask, I understand that we are passing it of to the urlsession deamon to handle the upload. Which is great, if the user chooses to background our app. But, what if they just stay with the app in the foreground? Will it start uploading immediately? Can we expect the same latency that a standard URLSession will provide? And the potential delay will only occur if they actually background our app. Also, what happens if a background upload is in-progress and the user enters our app again? Will it gain priority, and run with similar latency as standard URL session? I.e., can we just always rely on using a background session, or should we kick of a beginBackgroundTask with a standard URL session, and only trigger a background uploadTask if we do not finish the standard upload before getting told we are about to get killed? A different question. I know there is the rate-limit delay added if we trigger multiple background URL tasks. Does that effect the following use case? We would like to send an additional HTTP request to our servers when the upload is completed, to notify it of the completion, but are we allowed to do that when the app is woken from the background? So, basically calling .dataTask from handleEventsForBackgroundURLSession for example?

Does DL-TDoA ranging in the Nearby Interaction framework support building a traditional RTLS-style TDoA localization system, where a device’s absolute position is computed from time-difference measurements across multiple deployed anchors, or is DL-TDoA strictly limited to system-managed, relative ranging and direction estimation (distance/direction) between nearby devices? If DL-TDoA ranging in Nearby Interaction is not intended to support traditional RTLS-style TDoA localization, is there any public documentation or reference material that describes the intended DL-TDoA architecture, such as the expected system setup, device roles, and deployment constraints (for example, how ranging is expected to be performed between an iPhone and nearby accessories), beyond the high-level API documentation? Regards.
