This question is about In-App Purchase. This is an inquiry from one of our customers. We have set up a free trial. This is your first time using the service, but you have stated that you have been charged. Document. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstorereceipts/is_trial_period 「You can use this value to determine whether the specific record is in a subscription trial period. If a previous subscription period in the receipt has the value "true" for either the is_trial_period or is_in_intro_offer_period keys, the user is not eligible for a free trial or introductory price within that subscription group.」 Our expectation is that is_trial_period is true. Receipt is not contain is_trial_period : true or is_in_intro_offer_period : true. Only one case has occurred. Other customers are no problem.

Document based SwiftData apps do not autosave changes to the ModelContext at all. This issue has been around since the first release of this SwiftData feature. In fact, the Apple WWDC sample project (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/building-a-document-based-app-using-swiftdata) does not persist any data in its current state, unless one inserts modelContext.save() calls after every data change. I have reported this under the feedback ID FB16503154, as it seemed to me that there is no feedback report about the fundamental issue yet.

My app’s widget is not displaying correctly and only shows a blank white screen.

Hi everyone, i'm trying to request in a AppIntent an array of strings. But I want to give the user the chance to add more than one String. Yet, I do it so: import AppIntent struct AddHomework: AppIntent { // some Parameters @Parameter(title: "Tasks") var tasks: [String]? @Parameter(title: "New Task") //Only for the special request var input: String? private func collectTasks() async throws -> [String] { var collectedTasks: [String] = tasks ?? [] while true { if !collectedTasks.isEmpty { let addMore = try await $input.requestConfirmation(for: "Möchtest du noch eine Aufgabe hinzufügen?") if !addMore { break } } let newTask = try await $input.requestValue("Please enter your task:") collectedTasks.append(newTask) } return collectedTasks } @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { let finalTasks = try await collectTasks() // some more code return .result() } } But this is not working. The Shortcut is ending without requesting anything. But it is not crashing. I would thankfully for some help.

Hi, I'm trying to setup PIR service for live caller id lookup (in python but based on swift example: https://github.com/apple/live-caller-id-lookup-example). The swift example provides utilities for database setup and encryption, but I can't find any specification about which key is used for database encryption and how the ios system knows about this key in order to be able to construct the PIR requests. So my question is how does the PIR service communicate the secret key to ios system or vice versa? (specific to the test environment, before onboarding)

on a span of 4 months we sent 2 for nfc entitlement requests and refused , no reason nothing . i mean all we want is the ability to use nfc on passes nothing else , no idea why this is so complex . with google you don’t even need a developer account and it’s for free , here we pay and we can’t even get the full functionality the passes offer , we got the hardware and the solution but we find out we need an nfc entitlement to allow passes to have nfc ? i mean our use case is very simple instead of having barcode on the passes we want them to be via nfc and we already got the nfc hardware but we find out we need nfc entitlement which we tried requesting but getting refused with no reason at all. at least tell u what is the problem what how to fix it not outright refuse without any reason at all. if anyone got any solution please provide.

Hello I'd like to be able to rotate an mapkit.ImageAnnotation. From this post on Stack Overflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78686475/need-to-style-a-mapkit-js-marker-annotation/78702266#78702266 I understand that it's possible, for example, to the following: map.annotations[0].element.style.cursor = "pointer"; and this works for me. However, I need to do something like the following, but it doesn't work: map.annotations[0].element.style.transform = "rotate(90deg) "; Any ideas how a mapkit.ImageAnnotation and mapkit.MarkerAnnotation can be rotated? Thanks in advance Sam

Is there a way to detect an incoming call with a React Native app? I have a fitness app and would like to pause the workout during the phone call.

Hello, I would like to draw your attention to the following imperfection. For validating purchases of my paid application Guru Maps Pro, I use the download id. This is a unique ID that can replace the Transaction ID for paid applications. However, with the release of the new AppTransaction API, this field is no longer present in the data. I tried parsing the receipt, but that field is absent there as well. The only way to obtain the download id is to send the receipt to the deprecated /verifyReceipt endpoint. This deprecated status concerns me, because at some point it might stop working. Let me explain a little about why I need this. My users have a guru-account, which they can use both in the web version and on Android. When a user purchases the paid version of the application, they can access the paid features on both web and Android. This works great for in-app purchases, where there is a transaction ID, but it may soon stop working for paid applications because there is no way to determine any ID associated with the purchase. Transaction ID or Download ID – I don't mind which.

Our product is using IOKit framework for monitoring USB device activities. We have used IOKit framework for getting the notification for USB plugin and un-plugins. With the macOS version 15.3 we are started seeing issue with it. When the notification is received during USB plugin/connection, we are unable to get IOUSBDeviceInterface object which will be used for further processing. Currently we are seeing the below error every time, while trying to create the IO plugin interface using IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService API:
 create plugin Error: (0xe00002be): (iokit/common) resource shortage Due to this the we are unable to proceed with the flow further and the entire flow is broken. These logics work fine in macOS version 15.2 and lower versions without any issues. logic used: USBDevice::initInterfaceInterfaceByIOService(io_service_t entry) { IOCFPlugInInterface** plugInInterface = NULL; IOUSBInterfaceInterface** interface = NULL; SInt32 score = 0; mach_error_code err = IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService(entry, kIOUSBInterfaceUserClientTypeID, kIOCFPlugInInterfaceID, &plugInInterface, &score); if ((err != 0) || (!plugInInterface)) { os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Unable to create plugin \n"); return nullptr; } auto result = (*plugInInterface)->QueryInterface(plugInInterface, CFUUIDGetUUIDBytes(kIOUSBInterfaceInterfaceID), (LPVOID*)&interface); (*plugInInterface)->Release(plugInInterface); if (result || !interface) { os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Unable to create interface \n"); return nullptr; } return interface; }

To receive server notifications from the App Store, follow the instructions in Enabling App Store Server Notifications. If your server doesn’t receive any notifications, check your server logs for any incoming web request issues, and confirm that your server supports the Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 protocol or later. If you implement version 2 of App Store Server Notifications, call the Get Notification History endpoint. If there is an issue sending a notification, the endpoint returns the error the App Store received from your server. If your issue persists, submit a Feedback Assistant report with the following information: The bundleId or appAppleId of your app The date and time your issue occurred The raw HTTP body of your notification The affected transactionId(s) if applicable The version of App Store Server Notifications (i.e., Version 1 or Version 2) The environment (i.e., Production or Sandbox) To submit the report, perform these steps: Log into Feedback Assistant.

a few times, for reasons unknown to me, asr restore processes broke with error 49244. Basically, the process get interrupted, most cases when is about to finish, with just a laconic message saying "Volume replication failed - error 49244". Where can I get information on this error, what exactly means, what causes it and more important, how to troubleshoot it. Any help will be appreciated, Thanks!!

Hello everyone, I would like to use AppleScript to transform a .csv file. To make things easier to understand, I'm attaching two files: 1- The original file in csv format 2- The file as I'd like it to look after I've run it through the script. Here are the steps involved 1-Open the file in numbers (Note: the file is located in the download folder). 2-Delete the first 6 lines 3-Delete all font styles and cell colors 4-Combine all cells in the nature of operation column of the same operation belonging to the same date in the first cell of the operation, deleting all spaces in the text is not necessary for each operation. 5- Delete all empty lines. I hope I've made my request clear. If any of you have the knowledge to do this, if it can be done at all, I'd be very grateful for their help in writing the script. Thank you in advance. 1.csv 2.csv

Hello, I recently implemented a conditional debounce publisher using Swift's Combine. If a string with a length less than 2 is passed, the event is sent downstream immediately without delay. If a string with a length of 2 or more is passed, the event is emitted downstream with a 0.2-second delay. While writing test logic related to this, I noticed a strange phenomenon: sometimes the publisher, which should emit events with a 0.2-second delay, does not emit an event. The test code below should have all indices from 1 to 100 in the array, but sometimes some indices are missing, causing the assertion to fail. Even after observing completion, cancel, and output events through handleEvents, I couldn't find any cause. Am I using Combine incorrectly, or is there a bug in Combine? I would appreciate it if you could let me know. import Foundation import Combine var cancellables: Set<AnyCancellable> = [] @MainActor func text(index: Int, completion: @escaping () -> Void) { let subject = PassthroughSubject<String, Never>() let textToSent = "textToSent" subject .map { text in if text.count >= 2 { return Just<String>(text) .delay(for: .seconds(0.2), scheduler: RunLoop.main) .eraseToAnyPublisher() } else { return Just<String>(text) .eraseToAnyPublisher() } } .switchToLatest() .sink { if $0.count >= 2 { completion() } }.store(in: &cancellables) for i in 0..<textToSent.count { let stringIndex = textToSent.index(textToSent.startIndex, offsetBy: i) let stringToSent = String(textToSent[textToSent.startIndex...stringIndex]) subject.send(stringToSent) } } var array = [Int]() for i in 1...100 { text(index: i) { array.append(i) } } DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 5) { for i in 1...100 { assert(array.contains(i)) } } RunLoop.main.run(until: .now + 10)

Hi, I'm developer in fintech company, we have setup process for onboarding merchants for our partner and processing payments with usage of Apple Pay API. Daily system is processing ca. 10k payments but every day ca. 100 of transactions are declined because of merchant validation error: request to https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession (with all required parameters in body) is returning response with status code 417 "statusMessage": "Payment Services Exception merchantId={root merchant id} unauthorized to process transactions on behalf of merchantId={merchant id hash} reason={merchant id hash} is not a registered merchant in WWDR and isn't properly authorized via Mass Enablement, either." Issue impacts recurring merchants, most of their transactions are processed successfully but randomly some of them are failing with such reason. All prerequisites are met: merchant have deployed 'apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association' certificate, certificates are valid and not expired. Apple Support is not able to provide any information based on provided requests timestamps. We would to know what may be the reason just part of the requests are failing and what 417 error code means.

Hello everyone, I’m running an Objective-C–based hybrid (native + web) shopping application and encountering a recurring issue on devices running iOS 18.1.1: When the app launches, it only shows a white screen with the native frame visible—no web content loads. Restarting or reinstalling the app doesn’t help. In one instance, toggling Airplane Mode on and off brought the app back to normal, but this workaround isn’t consistent. There are no crash logs, so we can’t determine if it’s caused by a network error, cache conflict, or an OS-level bug. So far, we have only seen this issue on iOS 18.1.1 devices. Because our app is a shopping platform, this significantly impacts users. Questions: Could this be related to a known bug or limitation in iOS 18.1.1? Are there recommended diagnostic steps or workarounds for a hybrid app that shows a white screen without generating crash logs? Which additional details (e.g., system logs, network traces, device configurations) might help isolate the cause? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I've been stuck for days trying to figure out how to extract the full text of a Siri prompt that launches my app. We need to be able to get the text of the full command, such as "Hey siri, buy dogfood...." so I can get "dogfood" or anything else following 'buy' . The examples I am finding are a) out of date or b) incomplelete. Right now we're using AppIntents with Shortcuts, but have to use dedicated shortcuts for each specific purchase, which are obviously very limiting.

I'm currently working on an AppIntent in my app to import Apple Pay transactions via Transaction triggers in Shortcuts. While I can access the transaction name with the following code: @Parameter(title: "Transaction") var transaction: String I'm not sure how to retrieve the full details of the transaction, including: Card or Pass Merchant Amount Name At the moment, transaction only provides the name as a string, but I need access to the complete transaction data. I know that by selecting specific fields like Amount, Merchant, etc., I can retrieve each piece of data individually, but it would be much easier and more user-friendly to simply retrieve the entire transaction object at once. Has anyone successfully retrieved all details of an Apple Pay transaction in this context, and if so, could you share how to do so?

Can i, personally, create .pkpass for other companies using my apple developer ID? In order to create .pkpass, I need to create passTypIdentifier and teamIdentifier using apple developer ID Is it okay to create those two identifiers and create coupons or membership cards for other companies? I just wonder if it is against the law or developer guide.

After opening the Apple Pay Popup and try to close the popup (without scanning the QR Code), the oncancel handler (accociated with the created session) doesn't fire. Meanwhile if the merchant scanned the QR code and the UI of the popup changed, then cancel the popup manually (using close (X) button), it fires the session.oncancel event handler. Here is applied setup: const { ApplePaySession } = window; if (!(ApplePaySession && ApplePaySession.canMakePayments())) { return new Error('Apple Pay Session is not available'); } const paymentCapabilities = await ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities( applePaymentOptionsMetaData.merchantIdentifier, ); if (paymentCapabilities.paymentCredentialStatus === 'applePayUnsupported') { console.error('ApplePaySession is not supported.'); return; } const request = { "countryCode": "KW", "currencyCode": "KWD", "merchantCapabilities": [ "supports3DS" ], "supportedNetworks": [ "VISA", "MASTERCARD" ], "billingContact": { "phoneNumber": "201000000000", "emailAddress": "example@test.com", "givenName": "Ahmed", "familyName": "Sharkawy" }, "total": { "amount": "3.085", "label": "Merchant Testing" } } const session = new ApplePaySession(5, request); session.onvalidatemerchant = async event => { if (debug) { console.info('Creating merchant session and validating merchant session'); console.info('onvalidatemerchant event', event); } try { // Validation Merchant Request session.completeMerchantValidation(data); } catch (error: any) { session.completePayment({ status: ApplePaySession.STATUS_FAILURE }); } }; session.onpaymentauthorized = async (event) => { session.completePayment({ status: ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS }); }; // This doesn't fire session.oncancel = () => { console.info('EVENT: oncancel'); }; session.begin();
