Hello, currently working on messenger with audio/video calls feature. Have found strange behavior, on some devices after accepting call via Lock Screen video button appears to be disabled. Tested on wwdc Speakerbox sample, same code iPhone 15 Pro (iOS 17.4.1) - video button disabled iPhone 14 (iOS 17.6.1) - video button active Here is my, configuration with supportVideo activated static let providerConfiguration: CXProviderConfiguration = { let configuration = CXProviderConfiguration() configuration.supportsVideo = true configuration.maximumCallGroups = 1 configuration.maximumCallsPerCallGroup = 1 configuration.supportedHandleTypes = [.generic] return configuration }() What can be the reason of this behavior? Thanks

Testing Environment: iOS: 26.0 Beta 7 Xcode: Beta 6 Description: We are implementing the new BGContinuedProcessingTask API introduced in iOS 26. We have followed the official documentation and WWDC session guidance to configure our project. The Background Modes (processing) and Background GPU Access capabilities have been added in Xcode. The com.apple.developer.background-tasks.continued-processing.gpu entitlement is present and set to in the .entitlements file. The provisioning profile details viewed within Xcode explicitly show that the "Background GPU Access" capability and the corresponding entitlement are included. Despite this correct configuration, when running the app on supported hardware (iPhone 16 Pro), a call to BGTaskScheduler.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) consistently returns false. This prevents us from setting request.requiredResources = .gpu. As a result, when the BGContinuedProcessingTask starts without the GPU resource flag, our internal Metal-based exporter attempts to access the GPU and is terminated by the system, throwing an IOGPUMetalError: Insufficient Permission (to submit GPU work from background). We have performed extensive debugging, including a full reset of the provisioning profile (removing/re-adding capabilities, toggling automatic signing, cleaning build folders, and reinstalling the app), but the issue persists. This strongly suggests a bug in the iOS 26 beta where the runtime is failing to correctly validate a valid entitlement. Additionally, we've observed inconsistent behavior across devices. On an A16-based iPad, the task submits successfully (BGTaskScheduler.submit does not throw an error), but the launch handler is never invoked by the system. On the iPhone 16 Pro, the handler is invoked, but we encounter the supportedResources issue described above. This leads us to ask for clarification on the exact hardware requirements for this feature. We hypothesize that it may be limited to devices that support Apple Intelligence (A17 Pro and newer). Could you please confirm this and provide official documentation on the device support criteria? Steps to Reproduce: Create a new Xcode project. In Signing & Capabilities, add "Background Modes" (with "Background processing" checked) and "Background GPU Access". Add a permitted identifier (e.g., "com.company.test.*") to BGTaskSchedulerPermittedIdentifiers in Info.plist. In application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) or a ViewController's viewDidLoad, log the result of BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu). Build and run on a physical, supported device (e.g., iPhone 16 Pro). Expected Results: The log should indicate that BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) returns true. Actual Results: The log shows that BGTaskScheduler.shared.supportedResources.contains(.gpu) returns false.

Hello im creating an expo module using this new API, but the problem i found currently testing this functionality is that when the task fails, the notification error doesn't go away and is always showing the failed task notification even if i start a new task and complete that one. I want to implement this module into the production app but i feel like having always the notification error might confuse our users or find it a bit bothersome. Is there a way for the users to remove this notification? Best regards!

I have created a sample app which read/write from a network file. When the file was attempted to open (using open Linux API), connection to network file was lost. The thread which was stuck on the open method, returns after a long time. It was observed that for macOS, the maximum return time of the thread was around 10 mins, whereas in Windows and Linux, the maximum timeout was 60 sec and 90 sec. macOS has a very large timeout before returning the thread with a network failure error. Is this by designed and expected? With a large timeout as 10mins, it's difficult to respond swiftly back to the user.

I am debugging ImageCaptureCore to communicate with external cameras. When I called the PTP function below to send a command and add data, the response timed out for more than 5 seconds. After waiting for a period of time, I obtained the response. However, the response callback function obtained responsivData.length as zero and ptpResponseData.length as zero too. (void)requestSendPTPCommand:(NSData *)ptpCommand outData:(NSData *)ptpData completion:(void (^)(NSData *responseData, NSData *ptpResponseData, NSError *error))completion; data is below: Wrote 1 = 0x1 bytes PTP：send data: (hexdump of 1 bytes) [ ] I/PTP (14564): 0000 01 - .

As a part of the video editing app I’m working on, I want to efficiently copy a folder of resources on the same (local) filesystem. Because iOS is on APFS, cloning (CoW) is an option. I read the documentation for clonefile(2) which states that cloning a folder works but is strongly discouraged. I did a small sample project which demonstrates that using clonefile on a folder works correctly and is 10× faster than using FileManager’s copyItem method. My questions: The main one I’m interested in: Why is using clonefile for a folder strongly discouraged? Is FileManager using cloning behind the scenes? Or more exactly how guaranteed are we it will use it? (I know it does, I tried manually cping the resources and it was thousands of times slower.)

Hello Developer support, In one of our live application we have seen that users are purchasing weekly subscription and automatically they shifted to yearly product. Due to this we have received high revenue and also refunds afterwards. To prevent this we removed our yearly product from the sale. In App Store Connect we have seen activations for weekly product and convert to standard prices are yearly products. Also we have seen weird behavior of user getting trial for same product for three times. For developer support people I am sharing my app id - 1320373866 , and here is the video of our issue - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DBHw8ivgql4eNoo8NC3xo5v4wgr8Oh7x/view?usp=sharing , Also attaching trial behavior screenshot.

Hello everyone, For example, our app currently has one subscription group in App Store Connect with 5 plans (2 annual, 2 monthly, and 1 quarterly). By default, users can go into Apple Subscriptions in Settings and freely switch between all of these plans. However, our business requirement is to only allow users to stay on one annual plan and one quarterly plan. We don’t want them to switch to the other plans. My questions are: Is there any best practice or recommended approach to restrict subscription switching within the same group? Would removing the unwanted products from sale be the correct approach, or are there any risks/downsides with this method? Has anyone faced a similar situation and found a practical solution? Any guidance or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, I'm experiencing an issue with my app where it's being terminated by the system with a watchdog violation during back-to-back messaging operations. I've analyzed the crash logs but would appreciate additional insights on optimizing my approach. I'd appreciate any insights on how to resolve this problem. Crash Details: Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGKILL) Termination Reason: FRONTBOARD with code 0x8BADF00D Error: "scene-update watchdog transgression: app exhausted real time allowance of 10.00 seconds" Reproduction Steps: User A initiates back-to-back messages to other User User A's UI becomes unresponsive and eventually the app crashes. Stack Trace Analysis: The crash occurs on the main thread, which appears to be blocked waiting for a condition in the keyboard handling system. The thread is stuck in [UIKeyboardTaskQueue _lockWhenReadyForMainThread] and related methods, suggesting an issue with keyboard-related operations during the messaging process.

Hello - I'm wondering about the suggested apps listed by Apple in their Health app. For example, if you select the "Sleep" category there are a bunch of suggested apps like AutoSleep and Sleepzy. These are not Sleep apps that I installed on my own phone or ever shared sleep data with. Is there a way to request to have a relevant app shown there? Or is it more automatic, like you're an app that integrates with HealthKit in certain ways and Apple has a way of determining that app is suitable for the user (ex. App Store popularity, user behavior, etc.)

Hi! When starting my app which is loading a Content Filter Network Extension I am getting the following error : sysextd: <bundle_id> : extension failed category property check: extensions belonging to the com.apple.system_extension.endpoint_security category require a later version of operating system to launch ... OSSystemExtensionRequest didFailWithError for <bundle_id> : The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain error 9.) This is happening on a VM running Sonoma 14.7.8. I upgraded the VM to the latest available OS and the system extension is loading just fine. My question is : reading the documentation, I understand that the Network Extensions are supported starting with macOS 10.10+. Why is this not working on my Sonoma 14.7.8 VM?

Are there any HealthKit related changes to be aware of in the new update that enables SPO2 / Blood Oxygen Saturation measurements on certain Apple Watch models within the US? I’m aware of processing happening on the phone…. But beyond that: Does this mean values are then saved to Apple Health? Do these models still take background SPO2 measurements in the same way as other models do? Are these values then visible in third party iOS apps as normal through HealthKit? Do these values sync back to the paired Apple Watch HealthKit store for third party apps to access on the Watch? For reference I have an iOS and WatchOS app that, amongst other features, provides the ability to see your SPO2 values in the Watch app, complications and in the iOS app.

New features in WatchOS 26 with configurable widgets make it more important than ever that apps adopt IntentConfiguration options where applicable. I develop an app with an Apple Watch complication/widget on many many user's Watch faces around the world. I've completed updating my code to support WidgetKit and remove ClockKit. However, I face huge issues adding support for users to configure their widget/complications. If I update a widget to go from StaticConfiguration to IntentConfiguration, even when keeping the "kind" string the same, the widget disappears from the Watch face. This is an unacceptable user experience meaning I can't proceed with the migration. The problem is users will expect me to offer configuration in the Watch face soon for their widget/complication. Currently this process is done in a sub-optimal way in the app itself. A similar issue exists on iOS where the widget will just "freeze" indefinitely is migrated. This issue still occurs on the iOS 26 and WatchOS 26 betas. So how to move this forward. This has been discussed previously here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/661247 I've mentioned it at WidgetKit labs I've filed feedback last year: FB13880020 I've filed feedback this year: FB18180368 It seems really important this gets fixed for developers to adopt these new features, is there any other migration route I'm missing or a workaround that would mitigate this seemingly big problem.

I encountered the following issues while developing in-app purchases; please help me: When attempting to purchase a product that has already been purchased, SKPaymentQueue reports an error instead of a success message: <SKPaymentQueue: 0x134665380>: Payment completed with error: Error Domain=ASDServerErrorDomain Code=3532 "You’re currently subscribed to this." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=You’re currently subscribed to this., client-environment-type=Sandbox, AMSServerErrorCode=3532, storefront-country-code=USA} After buying product A on one iPhone using a sandbox account, restoring purchases on another iPhone with the same sandbox account via paymentQueue.restoreCompletedTransactions(withApplicationUsername:) does not return the previously purchased product A data; it directly calls restoreCompletedTransactionsFinished.

I would like to have an AppEntity with a Property that is a Date, which is only the date, not the time. ie the equivalent of 09/14/2025, not 09/14/2025 09:00 UTC How would I model this? How would I create an EntityPropertyQuery for this? If I add QueryProperties they have the UI in Shortcuts pick a time too. Thanks!

I have a Qt desktop app that I was shipping to users as a dmg on macOS. But now I'll need to kind of rebrand the app to different users, that rebranding involves changing the name and the icon of the app I'm not sure how feasible that is on macOS but here's what I'm thinking: First I'll include all apps for all brands inside the app resources, and instead of shipping the app directly, I will ship and installer (either .pkg or a custom made installer app) that will be responsible for downloading the main app and also setting some environmental variables somewhere so that I can choose the icon from the resources based on the env var values. And then either change the app icon and name from the installer itself, or implement something inside the app that makes it change the icon and name on launch (both icon in finder and in dock) but maybe one of those methods (or both) will break the codesign/notarization of the app so I want to avoid that too I'm not sure if someone has done this before or how feasible such scenario is. Is what I'm thinking valid? or is there a whole other way possibly easier than this to go about implementing such feature? The purpose of this is that I don't want to have to create multiple releases for multiple brands when they're all the same application with different icons/names, and also when releasing an update it will be just one update for all brands Thank you in advance and feel free to ask any further questions for clarification

I'm developing a macOS console application that uses ODBC to connect to PostgreSQL. The application works fine when run normally, but fails to load the ODBC driver when debugging with LLDB(under root works fine as well). Error Details When running the application through LLDB, I get this sandbox denial in the system log (via log stream): Error 0x0 0 0 kernel: (Sandbox) Sandbox: logd_helper(587) deny(1) file-read-data /opt/homebrew/lib/psqlodbcw.so The application cannot access the PostgreSQL ODBC driver located at /opt/homebrew/lib/psqlodbcw.so(also tried copy to /usr/local/lib/...). Environment macOS Version: Latest Sequoia LLDB: Using LLDB from Xcode 16.3 (/Applications/Xcode16.3.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/lldb) ODBC Driver: PostgreSQL ODBC driver installed via Homebrew Code Signing: Application is signed with Apple Development certificate What is the recommended approach for debugging applications that need to load dynamic libraries? Are there specific entitlements or configurations that would allow LLDB to access ODBC drivers during debugging sessions? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for any assistance!

I am developing an iOS app that uses App Store Server API (v2) for auto-renewable subscriptions. I noticed a discrepancy between the expiration date returned by the API and the date displayed in iPhone Settings > Subscriptions: App Store Server API expiresDate: 2025-09-12T12:10:25 (KST) iOS Settings > Subscriptions: 2025-09-11 (one day earlier) My understanding: The API’s expiresDate is the precise UTC timestamp. The Settings UI might display the "last full calendar day" for UX purposes. Questions: Is this behavior (UI showing one day earlier) an intentional Apple policy? If so, is there any official documentation or guideline explaining this behavior? Should developers always rely on the API’s expiresDate for subscription state management? This discrepancy is confusing for both developers and end users, so any clarification or official reference would be greatly appreciated.
