Hi I have a question about In app Provisioning for Apple Pay. I'm a developer in company which makes application for one of banks. They want to have ability to add cards to Wallet by their app not by Wallet application. I know which functions and documentation i need to use but I have a problem with testing it. We are third party developer, have seperate teams, bank also has 3 apps for their testing environments. Bank sign agreements with Apple so they could have entitlements to check integration. And that is a question. Is there any change to check our implementation before checking it in production app? I've seen sandbox account feature: https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/ but I can' open In App provisioning window without entitlements. In Apple documentation we have statement that Apple is giving this entitlement only for production applications. So how to test it and check implementation before getting to production or without "mocking" application as production (changing id).

We applied for Location Push Entitlement on June. It has been several months since then but we still got not any results (either passed or rejected).

There is a bug when try to open the push notification of appintent at the lock screen.

We hav implemented Apple Pay for our project , Merchant setup etc. are properly done and we are able to see the Apple pop-up in the website , however the Payment cancelled is getting triggered after CompleteMerchantValidation event , due to this we are not able to see the final payment button Verified Certs, Merchant details as mentioned in the thread https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/689956 , however no luck , no error seen in the console. Any pointers to fix this is appreciable , thank you!

I've developed an app that allow me to send messages to all users by entering a record in Public database. On each users device, the app takes that Public record and creates a record in their Private database to track the Read and Deleted status. It works flawlessly on the simulator and about 1/3 of the devices enrolled in my TestFlight. The other 2/3 are unable to write to their Private database. In fact, the CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.save() operation causes the app to crash if I let it run. I've looked at every Google link and I just can't figure out why this works for 1/3 of the users, but not the other 2/3. Incidentally, the 2/3 of the group that can't save to their Private database are also unable to save their Notification Subscription. All devices are running iOS 18.0 or better iPhone 11 through 16 in testing pool. Each portion of the working/not working group are a mix of iPhone versions. if !found && checkIcloudStatus() { CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.save(loadPrivateData(n: processedMessages[index].recordName)) { returnedRecord, returnedError in print("Adding new message to Private and error is: \(String(describing: returnedError))") DispatchQueue.main.async { self.processedMessages[index].record = returnedRecord ?? CKRecord(recordType: "messages_private") self.processedMessages[index].unRead = true self.processedMessages[index].deleted = false } } } func loadPrivateData(n: String) -> CKRecord { let record = CKRecord(recordType: "messages_private") record["deleted"] = "false" record["messageId"] = n record["unRead"] = "true" return record }

I have an app with a shared internal framework, a main app target, and a widget target. In my shared framework, I have an AppIntent, FooIntent. In addition, I have an AppIntentPackage public struct FooIntentsPackage: AppIntentsPackage { } also in the framework. Finally, in the widget target, I reference that package: struct FooAppIntents: AppIntentsPackage { static var includedPackages: [any AppIntentsPackage.Type] { [ FooIntentsPackage.self ] } } However, when I run this, I get a bunch of these errors: metadata `_$s8Internal15FooAppIntentsV' did not match any imported symbol. I've tried turning off Strip Linked Product in both the Framework and the Widget, to no avail. Any ideas?

Hello, I'm working on an app that currently uses CoreBluetooth to scan for devices and connecting. I am trying to integrate AccessibilitySetupKit for pairing with new devices, but I also need backward compatibility for older Bluetooth devices. I am playing around with SKSampleApp, and it looks like when I use ASK to discover devices, created CBCentralManager is either always poweredOff when I don't connect any accessory through ASK, or only discovers the paired devices. Is there any documentation describing the behavior of CBCentralManager state + scanning when ASK is integrated?

Hi, I'm not too good with terminal stuff, but when I looked at activity monitor, my corespotlightd was using too much of my cpu. I decided to look up solutions on google and stumbled upon this: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/675482. I tried some of the commands, and I closed the terminal while sudo was still running because I was getting impatient. Somehow, before I even realized it, I was logged out of my Apple ID and my desktop and downloads files were completely gone. For some reason, my applications are still the same, which makes me wonder if some of the files or folders I had before can still be recoverable. I checked time machine, and I wasn't able to recover anything. How cooked am I? I've lost all of my university work and some other pictures and stuff that I thought would never be damaged if I had it locally. Would appreciate any type of help. Thanks.

Hi, I'm developing an app for iOS and MacOS with SwiftData and CloudKit syncing. I had sync working very well with a set of models. This schema was also pushed to CloudKit production. Last week I added several models, and several relationship properties linking my existing models to newly added models. The schema updated just fine and everything worked. Then things went sideways: earlier this week I decided I wanted to rename a property on one of my new models. So I renamed the property, removed the application support folder for my local debug app (on Mac OS), removed the app from the iOS Simulator (to clear its local database), and finally reset my CloudKit container to its Production schema. Basically, I tried to go back to the same state I had as when I first added the new models. However, this time things don't go so smoothly, even after starting the app several times, rebooting my machine, turning iCloud on and off in Xcode and MacOS and iOS. When I look in CloudKit console, I see only my old models there: none of the new ones are added. I'd love some pointers on how I can best debug this issue, as I feel completely stuck. On MacOS I have very little mac-logs.txt to go on. Since the logs are a bit lengthy I've added them as an attachment. I get a few warnings, but it is unclear what they are warning me about. One thing that does stand out is that I am running the CloudKit in Development mode here. However, the logs do state accountPartition=Prod . And when I query CKContainer.default() for the container environment, the response is sandbox, which matches Development! On iOS The logs show a few errors, but I cannot make sense of them. error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _performSetupRequest:]_block_invoke(1240): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d09860>: Failed to set up CloudKit integration for store: <NSSQLCore: 0x103325c90> (URL: file:///Users/bastiaan/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/BF847CE5-A3E2-4B4C-8CD5-616B75B29AFE/data/Containers/Data/Application/0A916F67-B9B2-457B-8FA7-8C42819EA9AA/Library/Application%20Support/default.store) <CKError 0x600000c433f0: "Partial Failure" (2/1011); "Failed to modify some record zones"; partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone:__defaultOwner__ = <CKError 0x600000c956b0: "Internal Error" (1/5005); "Couldn't create new PCS blob for zone <CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000c475d0; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>"> }> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate recoverFromError:](2310): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d09860> - Attempting recovery from error: <CKError 0x600000c433f0: "Partial Failure" (2/1011); "Failed to modify some record zones"; partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone:__defaultOwner__ = <CKError 0x600000c956b0: "Internal Error" (1/5005); "Couldn't create new PCS blob for zone <CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000c475d0; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>"> }> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _recoverFromPartialError:forStore:inMonitor:]_block_invoke(2773): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d09860>: Found unknown error as part of a partial failure: <CKError 0x600000c956b0: "Internal Error" (1/5005); "Couldn't create new PCS blob for zone <CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000c475d0; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>"> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _recoverFromPartialError:forStore:inMonitor:](2820): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d09860>: Error recovery failed because the following fatal errors were found: { "<CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000c8fd50; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>" = "<CKError 0x600000c956b0: \"Internal Error\" (1/5005); \"Couldn't create new PCS blob for zone <CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000c475d0; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>\">"; } And in CloudKit logs I see: 06/11/2024, 9:09:59 UTC 738513AC-9326-42DE-B4E2-DA51F6462943 iOS;18.1 ZoneFetch EphemeralGroup { "time":"06/11/2024, 9:09:59 UTC" "database":"PRIVATE" "zone":"com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone" "userId":"_0d9445f850459ec351330ca0fde4134f" "operationId":"611BA98C9B10D3F2" "operationGroupName":"EphemeralGroup" "operationType":"ZoneFetch" "platform":"iPhone" "clientOS":"iOS;18.1" "overallStatus":"USER_ERROR" "error":"ZONE_NOT_FOUND" "requestId":"738513AC-9326-42DE-B4E2-DA51F6462943" "executionTimeMs":"53" "interfaceType":"NATIVE" } Any pointers are greatly appreciated!

I am working on a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) project using the nRF52840 Development Kit (DK), which has been reconfigured to simulate an nRF52805 chip. The firmware is based on Nordic Semiconductor's ble_app_hids_keyboard example, with modifications to implement a BLE HID Gamepad. I am using the S113 SoftDevice and have successfully tested the functionality with Android devices. The gamepad is recognized as a HID device, and it works as expected on Android, verified using the hardwareTester website. However, when I connect the gamepad to an iPhone via BLE, the same hardwareTester website does not respond as it does on Android, indicating that the iPhone does not recognize the device as a gamepad. The BLE connection is established successfully, but it seems iOS does not interpret the HID report descriptor or the BLE HID service correctly. I suspect there might be compatibility issues with the HID descriptor or the GATT attributes for iOS-specific BLE HID requirements. I would like to have some help.

Hi everyone. I'm having a problem to register a new domain using the Salesforce Commerce Cloud. Internally, commerce has a plugin that allows me to register my domain with Apple. It works for dev environments. But now, I'm trying to register my production domain, which uses Akamai, and it is returning error 403 when Apple tries to 'verify' my domain. My guess is that Akami is blocking something request from Apple. So, I'd like to know if all requests from Apple to verify my domain use something that allows me to identify these requests, and then, I can create a rule in Akamai to allow this request. I noticed that one of the information sent in Apple request is: User-Agent: oslopartner Client 1.0 Is this agent variable or fixed? If it is fixed, I'll try to use it as parameter to identify the Apple requests on Akamai side. Any other idea will be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I have several ObjC based apps in the App Store and used to validate the receipt file inside the app in my code, and then reject it with exit(173) if it's invalid, which did trigger macOS to update the receipt if possible. This isn't working any more in recent macOS versions, where the user is instead just told that the app is damaged, and they need to re-install it manually. Which sucks. So I wanted to update my code. I read about SKReceiptRefreshRequest, which is supposed to re-download and install the receipt file, if I understand it correctly. I implemented the code but now have trouble verifying that it works as intended, and does this in a user friendly way. I found in my tests that macOS now caches the receipt in ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstoreagent/fsCachedData and then hardlinks the file into the app. BTW: Sadly, this also requires that the app is located on the startup volume or the system will refuse to install the receipt, which wasn't a requirement in past times. Now, if the receipt is already present in the cache folder, then my code works - the receipt gets re-linked. But what if the cached receipt isn't there, yet? Such as that the user had copied the app from another Mac over to a freshly installed Mac? In the past, when the user then launched the app on the new Mac, he'd be prompted to login to the MAS and if that worked, the receipt would get installed and the app launched. Basically, the question is: What if the receipt validation fails in my app and I request a new receipt, but the user has not yet logged into MAS (e.g. new computer)? To simulate this, I logging out of the MAS and TestFlight, deleting all copies of the app and then run the app that I had copied from another Mac where it was authorized with a valid receipt for that device. If I do this with the old version that uses exit(173), I get these two messages in macOS 15.2: The second one is especially terrible because it shows the translocated path, which the average user surely get quite confused, and then maybe even search in vain for the app in there and get frustrated. But that's out of my hands. Sigh. Now, that was proving that the old method with exit(173) isn't working any more and needs to be changed in my apps. Since I'm still developing (testing) this new behavior, the app is therefore not in the MAS yet - the only way for me to test this is to use TestFlight. However, running a Testflight app copied from another Mac leads to this error: That is not helpful in simulating what would happen if this app was released in the MAS. This won't let me find out what happens if my app is run on a Mac where the receipt fails and I ask it to load it via SKReceiptRefreshRequest and if the user is NOT yet logged into the MAS account for this purchased app of his/hers. That leaves only one option: Release the app with untested code and hope for the best. Contrary to this new behavior, the old method did let me test this easily because I would just use the special App Store tester account with the MAS app, i.e. the built MAS app would, when I launched it locally, request for a login and I'd provide my tester's account. But this isn't available any more, apparently. What a mess.

I've realized that I need to use migration plans, but those required versioned schemas. I think I've updated mine, but I wanted to confirm if this was the proper procedure. To start, none of my models were versioned. I've since wrapped them in a VersionedSchema like this: enum TagV1: VersionedSchema { static var versionIdentifier: Schema.Version = .init(1, 0, 0) static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [Tag.self] } @Model final class Tag { var id = UUID() var name: String = "" // Relationships var transactions: [Transaction]? = nil init(name: String) { self.name = name } } } I also created a type alias to point to this. typealias Tag = TagV1.Tag This is what my container looks like in my app file. var sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([ Tag.self ]) let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) do { return try ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration]) } catch { fatalError("Could not create ModelContainer: \(error)") } }() The application builds and run successfully. Does this mean that my models are successfully versioned now? I'm trying to avoid an error I came across in earlier testing. That occurred because none of my models were versioned and I tried to setup a migration plan Cannot use staged migration with an unknown coordinator model version.

I encounter a problem that duplicate charges for a single purchase. iI received two transactions with the same appAccountToken but different original transactionId.(a non-renewing subscription product). One of them is from Transaction.updates. The user of our app has already given us feedback twice. the phone runs iOS 18.0.1.

trying to quit 2 apps and launch a 3rd. 3 individual Automator apps work by themselves fine. But can't get them to "open an app" from Calendar at a specified time. Tried building an Apple Script. Same issue. Here's the Automator app. ** tell application "Jellyfin Media Player" to quit delay 1 tell application "Jellyfin server 10.10.1" to quit delay 1 tell application "EmbyServer 4.8.10" to activate** any help on what I'm doing wrong? seems simple enough. Both Automator and Script Ed have "full disk access" and "Accessibility"

Hello, I have written a new app shortcut using the iOS AssistantIntent macro for the system.search scheme. It all works as it should. I can find it in the short cuts apps and if I search for my app in the Search feature of Springboard my app icon shows under top hits along with its associated search shortcut. When the shortcut is invoked it prompts for the text to search for and then it launches once the text is entered. This is fine but I would also like to have automatically created some additional shortcuts items where some of the common items I expect people to search for are already available so that when tapped they aren't prompted for search text and the intent is automatically launched with the query text. I'd like these to show up under top-hits for my app and in the shortcuts app as well. I noticed that if I manually create the shortcuts in the shortcuts app then they show up under top-hits. However as I said I would like for my app to provide these automatically but I am unsure how to go about this and which APIs I should using. Thx

Hi, I'm working on implementing Apple Pay on the Web. I noticed, both on my web but also on official Apple Pay on the Web Demo page (https://applepaydemo.apple.com/apple-pay-js-api) when you're sending request for recurring payment, it takes much longer to get response from Apple server (even in onpaymentauthorized method) than when using regular payment. You can test on the page mentioned above. When you authorise test card with basic payment it's pretty fast, but when you do authorisation with test card for recurring payment (or Deferred or Automatic Reload) "processing payment" is much longer. Is there a reason why is this and is there a way to speed it up? Thank you. Kind regards, Zoran

Context: Our company distributes the same app under multiple brands/flavors using three different App Store Connect accounts. The app supports Apple Pay in 17 markets, allowing users to switch between markets and pay in their chosen market. To handle payments, we currently create separate Apple Pay Merchant IDs and certificates for each market within each of the three accounts. This results in: 3 Merchant IDs per market (one for each account) 17 markets supported, requiring 51 certificates to be created and maintained Key constraints: All the apps cannot be unified under a single App Store Connect account due to certain requirements. Question: Is there a way to simplify this process by consolidating the merchant IDs or certificates across accounts while maintaining the current structure? For example, is there a way to share Merchant IDs across multiple accounts, or is there an alternative approach to reduce the administrative overhead of managing 51 certificates? Any guidance or best practices for optimizing Apple Pay setups in such multi-account, multi-market scenarios would be highly appreciated!
