Hi, title says it all: I have Transaction.currentEntitlements returning expired subscriptions (testing both transaction expirationDate & RenewalState). Environment: local via .storekit file. Subscription duration is shortened for testing. Could it be the issue? The sub duration is normally 1 year. The documentation says it should only returns active subscription (RenewalState.subscribed) or in grace period (RenewalState.inGracePeriod).

I'd like to allow users to select apps to shield from a DeviceActivityReport (similar to how Apple's Screen Time Settings activity report allows a user to "add limits" to a selected app in the report. What I need to do is pass an appToken from the DeviceActivityReportExtension to my app. I realize the extension is sandboxed and doesn't allow "private" data to be seen outside of the sandbox. The docs state: To protect the user’s privacy, your extension runs in a sandbox. This sandbox prevents your extension from making network requests or moving sensitive content outside the extension’s address space. However, tokens aren't "sensitive". I want to pass a token set out of the sandboxed extension so users can select certain apps from the report that my app can use for setting limits, etc. I thought using App Groups and saving data with UserDefaults with a suiteName for my app group would do it, but it doesn't appear to allow me to pass the token data. Yes I'm using the same KEY for both as I set a config enum to ensure it's the same and I can pass tokens successfully between other extensions/apps in the app group, but not the report extension. It seems the app and the extension have their own stores as the report extension can write to and read from a store but despite being the same suiteName, other apps in the app group don't get or send data to the Report Extension. I realize this is probably due to the design with the sandbox to protect user privacy, however it seems an exception should be made for passing tokens (or even better allow passing through another method like a callback, etc). Is there ay way to accomplish passing a token from the sandboxed report extension to my app?

Hallo all, I did a test integration of MetricKit into one of our apps...I'am on macOS Ventura 13.3.1 (a). The app is not distributed via the App Store. I subscribed to the MXMetricManager and implemented the didReceiveDiagnosticPayloads function. So far everything seems to work, when I use in Xcode: Debug -> Simulate MetricKit Payload I get a callback and the payload. So I did some further testing. When I build the app debug version with a test crash and then run the Debug Version (without Xcode) and let it crash the next time I start the app I get a callback to didReceiveDiagnosticPayloads with all the information about the crash. But I'am not able to get a hang report. I tested it by adding a sleep (60) and adding some intensive computation work on the main thread so that it is busy for several seconds, I get no hang reports :-( I'am using the Debug version and run it without Xcode. Are hang reports expected to be reported immediately? I also get after 24 hours no hang reports. Can someone help me? Thanks and have a nice day!

I created a ShieldConfigurationExtension in Xcode 14.3 with File > New > Target > ShieldConfigurationExtension. This created the extension with all the necessary Info.plist values (correct NSExtensionPrincipalClass, etc.), with the extension included in embedded content in the host app target. No matter what I try, the extension is not getting invoked when I shield applications from my host app. The custom UI does not show as the shield, and looking at the debugger, an extension process is never invoked. I am shielding categories like this: let managedSettings = ManagedSettingsStore() ... managedSettings.shield.applicationCategories = .all() And my extension code overrides all the ShieldConfigurationDataSource functions. class ShieldConfigurationExtension: ShieldConfigurationDataSource { override func configuration(shielding application: Application) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding application: Application, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } } What am I missing?

Hello, Our users are seeing random crashes in our packet filter system extension on macOS.

I'm experimenting with getting my AUv3 plugins working correctly on iOS and MacOS using Catalyst. I'm having trouble getting the plugin windows to look right in Logic Pro X on MacOS. My plugin is designed to look right in Garageband's minimal 'letterbox' layout (1024x335, or ~1:3 aspect ratio) I have implemented supportedViewConfigurations to help the host choose the best display dimensions On iOS this works, although Logic Pro iPad doesn't seem to call supportedViewConfigurations at all, only Garageband does. On MacOS, Logic Pro does call supportedViewConfigurations but only provides oversized screen sizes, making the plugins look awkward. I can also remove the supportedViewConfigurations method on MacOS, but this introduces other issues: I guess my question boils down to this: how do I tell Logic Pro X on MacOS what the optimal window size of my plugin is, using Mac Catalyst?

Touchscreen gestures in CarPlay aren't recognized in the app (delegate CPMapTemplateDelegate functions aren't called). Tried also in the Coastal Roads demo app to add test functions to check that pan functions are called - the same: func mapTemplateDidBeginPanGesture(_ mapTemplate: CPMapTemplate) { MemoryLogger.shared.appendEvent("Did begin pan gesture.") } func mapTemplate(_ mapTemplate: CPMapTemplate, panBeganWith direction: CPMapTemplate.PanDirection) { MemoryLogger.shared.appendEvent("Did begin pan gesture with direction \(direction.rawValue).") } Note: buttons (on carplay app) are working when pressing on them. Also, the desktop of carplay can be panned (by swipe gesture). Using Xcode 14.3, MacBook pro M1

I don't know how this happened or how to reset this, but I can't test the StoreKit part of my TestFlight app anymore. When I try to retrieve or buy products (IAPs), I get all kinds of strange behavior. I think it is caused by storekitagent thinking the app is in "Xcode sandbox environment". One of the errors from storekitagent looks like this: [51852D62] [LoadSubscriptionStatusTask]: Subscription status request failed with error - Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1003 "A server with the specified hostname could not be found." UserInfo={AMSStatusCode=0, _NSURLErrorFailingURLSessionTaskErrorKey=LocalDataTask <468756B3-DA53-4FED-B35C-E093954C27D8>.<1>, NSErrorFailingURLKey=http://localhost:49828/inApps/subscriptions?guid=98DD60024C21&reason=push, _kCFStreamErrorDomainKey=10, _NSURLErrorRelatedURLSessionTaskErrorKey=( "LocalDataTask <468756B3-DA53-4FED-B35C-E093954C27D8>.<1>" ), NSLocalizedDescription=A server with the specified hostname could not be found., NSErrorFailingURLStringKey=http://localhost:49828/inApps/subscriptions?guid=98DD60024C21&reason=push, NSUnderlyingError=0x122f638d0 {Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=-1003 "(null)" UserInfo={_NSURLErrorNWPathKey=satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: lo0, _kCFStreamErrorCodeKey=-72000, _kCFStreamErrorDomainKey=10}}, _kCFStreamErrorCodeKey=-72000} It looks like it's trying to connect to a local server instead of contacting Apple's App Store servers. I'm on the latest macOS and Xcode. Any help is greatly appreciated:) Thanks!

Hi all, Has anyone stumbled upon the SwiftData equivalent of @SectionedFetchRequest? Is there a way to do it with @Query? I'll keep going through the documentation but if anyone has an answer, it would be much appreciated!! Thank you.

How does SwiftData work with background operations? CoreData had background context that could be used to avoid UI hang for heavy operations. Is there an equivalent in SwiftData, and if so, do I have to merge changes or does it save directly to persistent store?

I've been testing out SwiftData but haven't bee able to get ModelContext notifications working. I've tried both an objc observer and for await patterns but it never fires. If I listen for the older nsmanagedcontext notifications they are firing, but I am hoping that the new ones give an ID instead of an objectId. Has anyone got these working? Attempt 1: class NotificationObserver { init() { let didSaveNotification = ModelContext.didSave NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(didSave(_:)), name: didSaveNotification, object: nil) } @objc func didSave(_ notification: Notification) { print(notification.name) } } Attempt 2: class NotificationObserver { init() { let didSaveNotification = ModelContext.didSave Task { for await note in NotificationCenter.default.notifications(named: didSaveNotification) { print(note) } } } }

As far as I can tell, there’s no equivalent to Core Data’s NSFetchedResultsController in SwiftData. It would be very helpful to have a way to respond to sets of changes in a ModelContext outside of a SwiftUI view. For instance, this is very helpful when using a Model-View-ViewModel architecture. The @Query property wrapper is great for use in a SwiftUI view, but sometimes it’s helpful to process data outside of the view itself. The fetch() method on ModelContext is helpful for one-time operations, but as far as I can't tell it doesn't address receiving changes on an ongoing basis. Am I missing some equivalent for this use case? Also filed as feedback FB12288916

First of all : Thanks for the great presentation (wwdc2023-10180), Siraj ! This new, simple API looks like what we've been looking for for easy manageable background location updates with 'automatic battery drain minimization' :-) There were two questions that came to my mind. As far as I understood, the CLLocationUpdate.LiveConfiguration is used to help the location services to improve the location fixes. Are there other options planned to specify the granularity of delivered locations e.g., how accurate the locations need to be (as the desiredAccuracy and distanceFilter settings for the olden CLLocationManager)? Does the Implementation switch between significant location changes and regular, more expensive ways (like GPS hardware) or just deliver the most feasible accuracy available at the time of notification? I'm just curious - if I get the most feasible granularity, everything is fine for me anyway :-) Thanks again, Michael

Does visionOS support mapkit?

The 'unique' attribute is a really nice feature, BUT. In some of my apps, the unique identifier for an object is a combination of multiple attributes. (Example: a book title is not unique, but a combination of book title and author list is.) How do I model this with SwiftData? I cannot use @Attribute(.unique) on either the title OR the author list, but I want SwiftData to provide the same "insert or update" logic. Is this possible?

Hello. we are looking in adding an additional verification method as part of our in app provisioning to apple wallet. the method is called app to app verification method where basically when the customer adds their card (debit or credit) on apple wallet they can be verified through a third party app. does apple support this? where can i find any material related to this?

Hi, I saw that almost each OS version, on ios and macos, handles differently changing includeAllNetworks while the tunnel is running. On some the entire OS reports no-net, while others, specially latest versions, handle this fine. Can includeAllNetworks be changed while the tunnel is running, or the tunnel must be stopped and restarted with the new value? e.g. the tunnel is started with it set to false, but later is changed to true into VPN profile. And on the same note, regarding setTunnelNetworkSettings, can this be called multiple times while the tunnel is running? For example if the VPN server IP changes. Because what I've saw each call to setTunnelNetworkSettings after VPN connected results in at least DNS leaks, because the routing table is recreated. Let me know if it is easier to track to create separate questions. Thanks

Greetings, I would like to understand this URLCache behavior for two different requests to the same end point but with a different header value. Here is a code with comment explaining the behavior. // Create a request to for a url. let url = URL(string: "https://&lt;my url&gt;?f=json")! var request = URLRequest(url: url) // Set custom header with a value. request.setValue("myvalue", forHTTPHeaderField: "CustomField") // Send request to get the response. let (data, response) = try await URLSession.shared.data(for: request) print("data: \(String(describing: String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)))") print("response: \(response)") // Create second request to the same url but with different value of custom header field. var request2 = URLRequest(url: url) request2.setValue("newvalue", forHTTPHeaderField: "CustomField") // Check the URL cache for second request and it returns the response // of the first request even though the second request has different header value. let cachedResponse = URLCache.shared.cachedResponse(for: request2) print("cachedResponse: \(cachedResponse?.response)") Is this a bug in URLCache that request headers are not matched while returning the response? Is this an expected behavior? If yes, why?

I have a home widget with buttons (new in iOS 17). In order to prevent taking action if the user taps on the widget buttons accidentally, I want to ask the user for confirmation. It appeared that requestConfirmation be exactly what I needed, but no confirmation view shows up when I invoke this method in the perform function. I have tried the following: try await requestConfirmation(result: .result(dialog: "Are you sure you want to do this?") { Image(.mdlsWhite) }) and this alternative: let confirmed: Bool = try await $name.requestConfirmation(for: self.name, dialog: IntentDialog(stringLiteral: msg)) Neither option work. I am starting to think that the requestConfirmation is not to be used with Home Widgets. Is there a better way to handle confirmations for buttons included in a Home Widget?

Does the iPhone or iPad support reception of the following communication standards? If so, please let me know if there is an swift API available. ・Bluetooth 5.x Long Range ・Wi-Fi Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) ・Wi-Fi Beacon
