Search.autocomplete coordinates vs Geocoder.reverseLookup coordinates are inconsistent and incorrect results
When using Search.autocomplete and getting the results, each search result object has coordinate which have 13 decimal places. When you use Geocoder.reverseLookup for these coordinates, it returns the wrong address and different coordinates (6 decimal places and different as well). What works is using Geocoder.lookup (with getsUserLocation as true) and putting in the Search.autocomplete displayLines (as a string) for the query. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? Code: const exampleQuery = '<example address>'; const search = new mapkit.Search({ getsUserLocation: true, }); search.autocomplete( exampleQuery, (error, data) => { if (error) { console.error('Search error:', error); return; } const { coordinate } = data.results[0]; console.log("Autocomplete coordinate", coordinate); // Lat and lng are both have 13 decimal places const geoCoder = new mapkit.Geocoder({}); geoCoder.reverseLookup( new mapkit.Coordinate(coordinate.latitude, coordinate.longitude), (error, data) => { const { formattedAddress, coordinate } = data.results[0]; console.log(formattedAddress, coordinate); // Not the same address from example query and from the search autocomplete, also the coordinate has 7 decimal places } ); }, {} );

Notifications not working on ModelContext
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) } } } }

SwiftData equivalent of NSFetchedResultsController
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

Payment from pass from wallet
Hi, I want to develop the fastest payment method for my user and preferably without the user also having a mobile app. The dream is that it happens as easily as possible when the user/guest scans a pass from the wallet. Hopefully the user just has to approve on the screen. Can I attach card details/payment methods to a pass in the wallet? Right now it is a unique QR code for each user, but can I change the pass type to 'tansit', 'loyalty' or 'membership'? My system right now: The customer/guest registers on a website and creates a pass and downloads it to the wallet. The store has a PWA app to scan the customer's/guest's items. My goal: The guest just scans the pass in the wallet and makes the transaction. Dont need an app or go back to the website/login where the person created the pass for the wallet.

SwiftData ModelContext Fetch Crashing
I'm currently using Xcode 16 Beta (16A5171c) and I'm getting a crash whenever I attempt to fetch using my ModelContext in my SwiftUI video using the environment I'm getting a crash specifically on iOS 18 simulators. I've opened up a feedback FB13831520 but it's worth noting that I can run the code I'll explain in detail below on iOS 17+ simulator and devices just fine. I'm getting the following crash: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'The specified URI is not a valid Core Data URI: x-coredata:///MyApp/XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX' It's almost as if on iOS18 SwiftData is unable to find the file on the simulator to perform CRUD operations. All I'm doing in my project is simply fetching data using the modelContext. func contains(_ model: MyModel, in context: ModelContext) -> Bool { let objId = palette.persistentModelID let fetchDesc = FetchDescriptor<MyModel>(predicate: #Predicate { $0.persistentModelID == objId }) let itemCount = try? context.fetchCount(fetchDesc) return itemCount != 0 }

Allow "App" to find the devices on local network?
Hi, On macOS 15 beta 7, we get a network popup while launching application, "Allow "App" to find the devices on local network?" This popup we are not seeing in older versions of macOS. We also see a a new option in "System Settings->Privacy & Security->Local Network". Is there way to add the application entry in "Local Network" through a command so that we can suppress this popup on launching the applications? Regards Prema Kumar

Unexpected system behavior with 'getifaddrs'
On iOS beta, monitoring network usage using the getifaddrs API sporadically causes system volume spikes. This happens even though the application does not interact with any audio-related code. The issue persists across different polling intervals (e.g., 0.05s to 1s) and only occurs when invoking getifaddrs. Replacing the API calls with mock data eliminates the problem, suggesting a potential issue with getifaddrs in the beta environment. The application updates UI elements based on network activity, but the volume spikes occur independently of UI or other observable app behavior. Steps to Reproduce: Create an app that monitors network usage using the getifaddrs API. Fetch network statistics on a timer (e.g., every 0.05 seconds). Observe system behavior while running the app on iOS beta. Note sporadic volume spikes during app runtime. Expected Result: Polling network usage with getifaddrs should not affect system volume or other unrelated resources. Actual Result: System volume spikes occasionally when network statistics are retrieved using getifaddrs. iOS 18.2 Beta, Tested on physical device ( iPhone 15 Pro )

DNS requests failing when NEPacketTunnelProvider is running.
Hi, TLDR: On iOS, when my PacketTunnel is running, can I exclude DNS requests from going into the tunnel? I have a test app, using Apple's AsyncDNSResolver, that makes a DNS call and it works when the tunnel is not running. If the tunnel is running it times out after 30 seconds and I get the error -65568. Here's how I'm setting up the tunnel func setup(tunnelRemoteAddress: String) { let settings = NEPacketTunnelNetworkSettings(tunnelRemoteAddress: tunnelRemoteAddress) settings.ipv4Settings = NEIPv4Settings(addresses: [tunnelRemoteAddress], subnetMasks: ["255.255.255.255"]) settings.ipv4Settings?.includedRoutes = [NEIPv4Route.default()] let proxySettings = NEProxySettings() proxySettings.httpEnabled = true proxySettings.httpServer = NEProxyServer(address: ProxyServerConfiguration.host, port: ProxyServerConfiguration.port) proxySettings.httpsEnabled = true proxySettings.httpsServer = NEProxyServer(address: LocalProxyServerConfiguration.host, port: LocalProxyServerConfiguration.port) proxySettings.excludeSimpleHostnames = true proxySettings.exceptionList = nil let dnsSettings = NEDNSSettings(servers: ["8.8.8.8"]) settings.dnsSettings = dnsSettings settings.proxySettings = proxySettings setTunnelNetworkSettings(settings) { error in // ... } } I've tried all combinations of setting/excluding the NEDNSSettings but the DNS call always fails when the tunnel is running. Thanks for any help.

Documentation on implementing core telephony framework
We are a carrier in the US and would want documentation on implementing the native eSIM creation on the native app and install it on the device directly through the app. Core Telephony framework is available (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coretelephony) to do that but I did not find any documentation on how to implement it by step by step process. Also we would want to understand how we can read the IMEI of the phone as we already have the carrier privileges on our developer account.

iOS Application Bluetooth Permission
Is it possible for the Bluetooth permissions of an app to be turned off due to changes in the iOS application's Bluetooth library, possibly because of Apple's security requirements or OS-related factors? There are two applications, Application A and Application B, that control Bluetooth devices. Application A uses a third-party Bluetooth library to control the Bluetooth devices. Application B also uses a third-party Bluetooth library to control the Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth libraries used by Application A and Application B are different, but both applications work without any issues. However, when the Bluetooth library used in Application B was changed to the one used in Application A, the Bluetooth permissions for Application B sometimes turned off. Since Application A and Application B operate without any issues on their own, we believe the problem is not with the Bluetooth libraries themselves. Given the above situation, is it possible that changing the Bluetooth library used could cause the Bluetooth permissions of the app to be turned off due to Apple's security requirements or OS-related factors?

ios 18.2 beta(22C5131E) Speech Recognition Discards Previously Transcribed Audio
I was testing SFSpeechRecognition on my real device running ios 18.2 beta, and found that the result's "final" field is true, the result itself does not contain entire conversation's transcription. I came across some blog posts saying it's fixed in a 18.1 beta, is this not the case for 18.2 beta? Example code: recognitionTask = recognizer.recognitionTask(with: request) { [weak self] result, error in guard let self = self else { return } if let error = error { DispatchQueue.main.async { self.errorMessage = "Transcription failed: \(error.localizedDescription)" self.isTranscribing = false } } else if let result = result, result.isFinal { // HERE! } }
