New features for APNs token authentication now available
Team-scoped keys introduce the ability to restrict your token authentication keys to either development or production environments. Topic-specific keys in addition to environment isolation allow you to associate each key with a specific Bundle ID streamlining key management. For detailed instructions on accessing these features, read our updated documentation on establishing a token-based connection to APNs.

CKQuerySubscription on public database never triggers APNS push in Production environment
Hi everyone, I have a SwiftUI app using CKQuerySubscription on the public database for social notifications (friend requests, recommendations, etc.). Push notifications work perfectly in the Development environment but never fire in Production (TestFlight). Setup: iOS 26.4, Xcode 26, Swift 6 Container: public database, CKQuerySubscription with .firesOnRecordCreation 5 subscriptions verified via CKDatabase.allSubscriptions() registerForRemoteNotifications() called unconditionally on every launch Valid APNS device token received in didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken Push Notifications + Background Modes (Remote notifications) capabilities enabled What works: All 5 subscriptions create successfully in Production Records are saved and queryable (in-app CloudKit fetches return them immediately) APNS production push works — tested via Xcode Push Notifications Console with the same device token, notification appeared instantly Everything works perfectly in the Development environment (subscriptions fire, push arrives) What doesn't work: When a record is created that matches a subscription predicate, no APNS push is ever delivered in Production Tested with records created from the app (device to device) and from CloudKit Dashboard — neither triggers push Tried: fresh subscription IDs, minimal NotificationInfo (just alertBody), stripped shouldSendContentAvailable, created an APNs key, toggled Push capability in Xcode, re-deployed schema from dev to prod Additional finding: One of my record types (CompletionNotification) was returning BAD_REQUEST when creating a subscription in Production, despite working in Development. Re-deploying the development schema to production (which reported "no changes") fixed the subscription creation. This suggests the production environment had inconsistent subscription state for that record type, possibly from the type being auto-created by a record save before formal schema deployment. I suspect a similar issue may be affecting the subscription-to-APNS pipeline for all my record types — the subscriptions exist and predicates match, but the production environment isn't wiring them to APNS delivery. Subscription creation code (simplified): let subscription = CKQuerySubscription( recordType: "FriendRequest", predicate: NSPredicate(format: "receiverID == %@ AND status == %@", userID, "pending"), subscriptionID: "fr-sub-v3", options: [.firesOnRecordCreation] ) let info = CKSubscription.NotificationInfo() info.titleLocalizationKey = "Friend Request" info.alertLocalizationKey = "FRIEND_REQUEST_BODY" info.alertLocalizationArgs = ["senderUsername"] info.soundName = "default" info.shouldBadge = true info.desiredKeys = ["senderUsername", "senderID"] info.category = "FRIEND_REQUEST" subscription.notificationInfo = info try await database.save(subscription) Has anyone encountered this? Is there a way to "reset" the subscription-to-APNS pipeline for a production container? I'd really appreciate any guidance on how to resolve and get my push notifications back to normal. Many thanks, Dimitar - LaterRex

App rejected 13+ times for UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities after adding DeviceActivity extensions — what am I missing?
I've been stuck on Guideline 2.3 for two weeks now and I'm running out of ideas. My app is iPhone-only (UIDeviceFamily = [1]) and has been on the App Store since January. Version 2.1.9 passed review fine. The only change in 2.1.10 is adding two DeviceActivity extensions — a DeviceActivityMonitor and a DeviceActivityReport — for screen time-based stress detection. Every build since then gets rejected with the same message: "The UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key in the Info.plist is set up in such a way that the app will not install on the device used in review." Review devices: iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPad Air M3. Here's what I've tried across 13+ submissions: UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities as ["arm64"] (array) — rejected Empty array [] — rejected Removed the key entirely — upload validation fails, Xcode re-injects arm64 anyway Post-build script to force ["arm64"] — rejected Dictionary format {"arm64": true} — rejected Added com.apple.developer.family-controls to extension entitlements — rejected Enabled Family Controls (Distribution) on extension bundle IDs — rejected Fixed CFBundleVersion mismatch between host app and extensions — rejected Set TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY=1 on all targets including extensions — rejected Tried GENERATE_INFOPLIST_FILE=YES with minimal plists — rejected Tried ExtensionKit type for the report extension — rejected In the exported IPA, every target has UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities = ["arm64"] and UIDeviceFamily = [1]. The entitlements, provisioning profiles, and code signing all look correct. arm64 is supported on every review device they listed. The previous version (2.1.9) without DeviceActivity extensions passes review with the exact same UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities and signing configuration. Has anyone shipped an app with DeviceActivityMonitor + DeviceActivityReport extensions successfully? Is there something specific about these extension types that affects device capability validation? Or is there a known issue with the review system and FamilyControls extensions? I've replied to the review team multiple times asking which specific capability is causing the failure, but the response is always the same generic template. Any guidance would be really appreciated — I'm completely blocked on shipping this update.

DeviceActivityMonitor extension rejected by App Store Connect validator — NSExtensionPointIdentifier "com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor" invalid (IrisAPI -19241)
Hi everyone, I'm building an iOS app that uses a DeviceActivityMonitor app extension as part of the Screen Time / Family Controls API. Every time I try to upload my IPA to App Store Connect, the validation fails with this error: "Invalid Info.plist value. The value of the NSExtensionPointIdentifier key, com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor, in the Info.plist of 'Alexandria.app/PlugIns/AlexandriaActivityMonitor.appex' is invalid." Error Domain=IrisAPI Code=-19241, iris-code=STATE_ERROR.VALIDATION_ERROR What I have verified (everything looks correct): NSExtensionPointIdentifier = com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor NSExtensionPrincipalClass = AlexandriaActivityMonitor.AlexandriaActivityMonitorExtension (correctly resolved in the compiled binary, verified with plutil -p) The Swift class correctly subclasses DeviceActivityMonitor CFBundleShortVersionString matches the main app Both the main app and extension provisioning profiles explicitly contain com.apple.developer.family-controls = true (verified by inspecting embedded.mobileprovision inside the IPA) The binary code signature itself contains com.apple.developer.family-controls = true (verified with codesign -d --entitlements :-) Family Controls entitlement was requested and approved in the Developer Portal for both App IDs Tested with both Xcode 26.2 (iOS 26 SDK) and Xcode 16.4 (iOS 18 SDK) — same error in both cases The IPA is structurally correct. The error comes purely from Apple's server-side IrisAPI validator and does not correspond to anything I can identify or fix in the code or configuration. Has anyone successfully submitted an app with a DeviceActivityMonitor extension to App Store Connect recently? Is there a backend approval requirement for com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor beyond the standard Family Controls entitlement approval? Could this be a known validator bug for this specific extension type? Any help appreciated.

Regression / Feature Request: Jumbo Frame (MTU 9000) support missing in AppleUserECM for RTL8156 2.5G USB adapters
Hello, I am currently developing a headless macOS daemon (HarmonBridge) that requires extremely low-latency, high-bandwidth UDP video streaming between a Mac and a Linux host over a dedicated 2.5GbE/5GbE local network link. We are utilizing widely available Realtek RTL8156 / RTL8156B based USB 2.5G network adapters. Under macOS, these adapters default to the generic com.apple.DriverKit.AppleUserECM driver. The hardware itself natively supports Jumbo Frames (MTU 9000), but the DriverKit implementation artificially restricts the MTU cap to 1500 bytes. Because we are forced through MTU 1500, we are incurring significant performance penalties: Excessive IP fragmentation for our large UDP video payloads. Unnecessary CPU overhead due to increased hardware interrupts and header processing at 2.5Gbps speeds. For a latency-critical application like ours, reducing CPU interrupts and utilizing true hardware-level Jumbo Frames is essential. My Questions: Is there an undocumented boot-arg or network sysctl parameter that permits overriding the AppleUserECM 1500 MTU hard-limit for 2.5G USB adapters on Apple Silicon? Are there any roadmap plans from the DriverKit/Networking team to re-enable standard Jumbo Frame negotiation for RTL8156 hardware using the generic ECM driver? If the answer to both is no, does Apple grant NetworkingDriverKit Entitlements to independent developers specifically for the purpose of writing custom hardware overrides to patch missing MTU features in the default ECM stack? Because AppleUserECM effectively acts as a gatekeeper to the underlying MAC/PHY capabilities of these modern USB NICs, any guidance on achieving wire-native MTU 9000 under the current DriverKit paradigm would be hugely appreciated. Thank you!

CarPlay Stopped Working on Upgrade to iPhone 17 Pro + iOS 26
Have a 2019 Ford Edge w/ Sync 3.4, wired carplay. Worked fine w/ iPhone 16 Pro on iOS 18. Upgraded to iPhone 17 Pro, came w/ iOS 26, carplay hasn't worked since. I've kept trying throughout new iOS 26 releases, lately with iOS 26.3 Public Beta 1, still not working. Have a long running issue with updates and system diagnostics as I've tried over the last few months: FB20739050 There is also a Apple support community thread with issues like this (and a ton of others) - my first post there was https://discussions.apple.com/thread/256138283?answerId=261613103022&sortBy=oldest_first#261613103022 I'm hoping here in the developer forums someone can maybe take a look at the feedback item and various system diagnostics to pin-point the issue. I'm a little concerned it's still not fixed this far into the follow-up point releases of iOS 26. Appreciate any help, thanks! --Chuck

CarPlay Function lost (26.4 and 26.5 DB)
with the latest updates on two of our iPhones run running 26.4 and the other 26.5 developed beta we have lost the ability to use CarPlay functionality via the Apple certified cable. Both phone showed the phone is connected and it is charging however functionality are greyed out on display in the 2022 Nissan rogue. Bluetooth still function properly as you could send and receive calls. However, functionality via the cable does not work. You cannot play music either. this feature also greyed. A trip to the Nissan dealer for more troubleshooting provided the following. A version 15 iPhone Connect via usb-c cable and functioned properly. As well as an android device. But again, hook up two iPhones one with version 26.5 DB and the other 26.4 both iPhone 14 would not work. After we left the dealership, I had a hunch that the issue with the latest update that both of these phones received over last week. I came home and connected an iPhone 6S which has a much older software version and it connected to CarPlay displayed maps and played music. Hopefully we can get another update soon that will resolve the issue via the lightning cable connection.

iOS 12.5.8 fails to bootstrap app
Hello, I released a new build for my app but it fails to run on iOS 12.5.8 (tested on iPad Air, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s). The launch storybard is shown, then the app stops abruptly. There is no crash log. It runs fine on iOS 13 or higher. Xcode 26.3 was showing a call stack (something with UIView) that did not include any app code. Now with Xcode 26.4 (and its new command line tools) there is an info popup with a debug metadata dump. However, I don’t intend to focus on Xcode here because it officially does not support iOS 12. It’s ok if I cannot debug, I just want the app to run on the device like the previous build did. Since there is no crash log, and the console is showing a bootstrap error, I believe my app code has not been executed and is therefore not at fault. Build 674 released on 23-Mar-2026: worked fine on iOS 12, built with Xcode 26.3 Build 675 released on 29-Mar-2026: Bootstrap error as described, with both Xcode 26.3 and 26.4 Deployment target = 12.4 Tried Instruments but it fails as soon as I hit record. In the console I found BKSProcessErrorDomain code 1. Here on the forum I found a post where the cause was no internet access but my device does have internet access. I made only very little code changes to my app between 674 and 675, no storyboard updates. I get the impression the loader does not even begin to execute my code. At this point I wonder if: some certificate has expired (see release dates above), or if something is incompatible in my main storyboard (though I did not change anything there), or the device ran out of memory (1 GB) Note: The app has 4 targets: main app target framework AU app extension intents app extension Thanks, Sven PS: Misclicked subtopic which should have been General (sorry).

Kernel panics on M5 devices with network extension
Hello, We have a security solution which intercepts network traffic for inspection using a combination of Transparent Proxy Provider and Content filter. Lately we are seeing reports from the market that on M5 Macbooks and A18 Neos the system will kernel panic using our solution, even though it never happens on M1-M4 and no significant code changes were made in the mean time. All crashes seem to be related to an internal double free in the kernel: panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe003bb68224): skmem_slab_free_locked: attempt to free invalid or already-freed obj 0xf2fffe29e15f2400 on skm 0xf6fffe2518aaa200 @skmem_slab.c:646 Debugger message: panic Memory ID: 0xff OS release type: User OS version: 25D2128 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 25.3.0: Wed Jan 28 20:54:38 PST 2026; root:xnu-12377.91.3~2/RELEASE_ARM64_T6050 Additionally, from further log inspection, before panics we find some weird kernel messages which seem to be related to some DMA operations gone wrong in the network driver on some machines: 2026-03-30 14:11:21.779124+0300 0x30f2 Default 0x0 873 0 Arc: (Network) [com.apple.network:connection] [C9.1.1.1 IPv4#e5b4bb04:443 in_progress socket-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, ipv6, dns, uses wifi, flow divert agg: 1, LQM: good)] event: flow:start_connect @0.075s 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780015+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (402262746): No more valid control units, disabling flow divert 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780017+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (402262746): Skipped all flow divert services, disabling flow divert 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780102+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: SK[2]: flow_entry_alloc fe "0 proc kernel_task(0)Arc nx_port 1 flow_uuid D46E230E-B826-4E0A-8C59-4C4C8BF6AA60 flags 0x14120<CONNECTED,QOS_MARKING,EXT_PORT,EXT_FLOWID> ipver=4,src=<IPv4-redacted>.49703,dst=<IPv4-redacted>.443,proto=0x06 mask=0x0000003f,hash=0x04e0a750 tp_proto=0x06" 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780194+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: tcp connect outgoing: [<IPv4-redacted>:49703<-><IPv4-redacted>:443] interface: en0 (skipped: 0) so_gencnt: 14634 t_state: SYN_SENT process: Arc:873 SYN in/out: 0/1 bytes in/out: 0/0 pkts in/out: 0/0 rtt: 0.0 ms rttvar: 250.0 ms base_rtt: 0 ms error: 0 so_error: 0 svc/tc: 0 flow: 0x9878386f 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934431+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: Hit error condition (not panicking as we're in error handler): t8110dart <private> (dart-apcie0): invalid SID 2 TTBR access: level 1 table_index 0 page_offset 0x2 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934432+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.511690]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 6 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.511696]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 9 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.569033]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 6 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.569038]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 9 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.577453]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 7 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.586328]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 5 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.586332]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 8 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.621392]: (dart-apcie0) AppleT8110DART::_fatalException: dart-apcie0 (<ptr>): DART DART SID exception ERROR_SID_SUMMARY 0x00003000 ERROR_ADDRESS 0x0000000000009800 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934443+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.621397]: Hit error condition (not panicking as we're in error handler): 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934443+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: t8110dart <ptr> (dart-apcie0): invalid SID 2 TTBR access: level 1 table_index 0 page_offset 0x2Expect a `deadbeef` in the error messages below 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934452+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: Expect a `deadbeef` in the error messages below 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934456+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (AppleEmbeddedPCIE) apcie[0:centauri-control]::_dartErrorHandler() InvalidPTE caused by read from address 0x9800 by SID 2 (RID 2:0:1/useCount 1/device <private>) 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934469+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (AppleT8110DART) Ignored dart-apcie0 (0xfbfffe18820b0000): DART(DART) error: SID 2 PTE invalid exception on read of DVA 0x9800 (SEG 0 PTE 0x2) ERROR_SID_SUMMARY 0x00003000 TIME 0x11242d43fd TTE 0xffffffffffffffff AXI_ID 0 We do not have any correlation between machines, usage pattern or installed applications.

Can you tell us please if this is a known problem and if there's a workaround or what can we do to narrow it down? Thanks.

EADemo Not Sending/Recieving Session Packets
Hi, We are currently in the process of getting an custom iAP2 device communicating via USB-C. We have been using the 'EADemo' app as a test app to ensure full function before certification. Currently, the device completes the authentication and identification successfully. The device appears within the 'EADemo' app, and we are able to select it and see the available protocol. Selecting the protocol sends the EAStartSession command to the accessory and we ACK it. This is where the issues begin. Attempting to send either a string or hex packet results in nothing being sent. The app does not appear to attempt to send a packet when these are pressed. The 'EADemo' app also does not increment its receive counter when the accessory sends an EA packet, but we do receive the ACK from the device. This indicates the device is receiving the packet, but not processing it in app. Sending the EASessionStatus from the accessory with a status of okay does not change the behavior. Sending the EASessionStatus packet from the accessory with a status of closed results in the device sending an EAStopSession packet. The issue does not appear to be with the accessory or the underlying transport layer. Previous attempts to contact MFi support resulted in them referring me to developer support. Are there any known issues within the 'EADemo' app that we should know about/and or need to fix? Does Apple have any other EA example application? Are there any other publicly avalilbe EA examples that Apple would recommend us trying? Thanks, Mike

Availability for BLE background scanning on watchOS whilst dimmed
I am trying to find out about the availability of BLE scanning for advertisements when a watchOS app (on watchOS 26.4 with CoreBluetooth) which starts running a HKWorkoutSession becomes dimmed, ie. due to the user lowering their arm. From my understanding there is still availability for ongoing scanning whilst in the dimmed mode. If this is correct, what settings are required (e.g. using background capability for 'Workout Processing', 'bluetooth-central', etc), and does scanning whilst in background mode limit to requiring service uuids in scanForPeripherals? Also if scanning is throttled, is there an 'estimated' inter scan time? Thanks

Wallet no longer appear near iBeacon
Hello, We are testing Wallet passes with iBeacons in iOS 26 Beta. In earlier iOS releases, when a device was in proximity to a registered beacon, the corresponding pass would surface automatically. In iOS 26 Beta, this behavior no longer occurs, even if the pass is already present in Wallet. I have not found documentation of this change in the iOS 26 release notes. Could you please confirm whether this is expected in iOS 26, or if it may be a Beta-specific issue? Any pointers to updated documentation would be appreciated. Thank you.

Just wondering if anyone ran into this issue. I use NetFSMountURLSync for my application with which I allow the user to use a custom path as a mount point (instead of "/Volumes"). This has worked just fine for at least a decade now, but ... since the Tahoe 26.4 "update" mounting to a custom path only generates errors. Note: Mounting to "/Volumes" works correctly (mountpoint = NIL). Since I'm unaware of any changes; is this a bug introduced by Tahoe 26.4, or should I be using a different function to mount a network share?

26.4 beta and RC versions are unable to be created on anything but 26.4 beta host OS
We're trying to create 26.4 beta and RC VMs on 15.x and 26.3 host OS' without success. We see Tue Mar 17 17:27:36 40 anka.log (install) 45803: failed to install macOS: Error Domain=VZErrorDomain Code=10006 "Installation requires a software update." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailure=A software update is required to complete the installation., NSLocalizedFailureReason=Installation requires a software update.} Yet, if we create it the same way on 26.4 beta host OS, it works. We've tried the usual tricks of installing latest Xcode and preparing it (accepting license, etc). But, they don't work on 26.3 and 15.x. What's the trick to get the creation of 26.4 to work on <= 26.3 host OS?

NWHotSpotConfiguration not providing a helpful error message
I have the following code that is attempting to set up Hotspot 2.0 using an EAP-TLS configuration. I am importing a pk12 file and using those certificates. I have tried all manner of permutations for the configuration, and have narrowed down all the errors I was getting and now I am just getting a generic: Error: invalid EAP settings. I have tried adding the identity separately and either get an entitlements issue which I can't figure out why since I have added the required network extension sharing groups, or a duplicate item error, meaning it was already correctly added. The certificate and configuration are correctly working through an Android app already. static let accessGroup: String? = { guard let prefix = Bundle.main.object(forInfoDictionaryKey: "AppIdentifierPrefix") as? String else { print("Could not load group") return nil } return "\(prefix)com.apple.networkextensionsharing" }() static func setupHotspot(data: CertificateData) { let h20 = NEHotspotHS20Settings(domainName: data.realm, roamingEnabled: false) h20.naiRealmNames = [data.realm] var result: CFArray? let options: [CFString: Any] = [ kSecImportExportPassphrase: "**********", kSecAttrLabel: "ident:\(data.user)", kSecAttrAccessGroup: accessGroup!, kSecReturnPersistentRef: true ] let status = SecPKCS12Import(data.p12 as CFData, options as CFDictionary, &result) guard status == errSecSuccess, let importResult = result as? [[String: Any]], let resultDict = importResult.first else { print("P12 Import failed: \(status)") return } let identity = resultDict[kSecImportItemIdentity as String] as! SecIdentity let eap = NEHotspotEAPSettings() eap.supportedEAPTypes = [NEHotspotEAPSettings.EAPType.EAPTLS.rawValue as NSNumber] eap.isTLSClientCertificateRequired = true eap.trustedServerNames = [ data.realm ] eap.outerIdentity = "anonymous" guard eap.setIdentity( identity ) else { print("setIdentity failed") return } let configuration = NEHotspotConfiguration(hs20Settings: h20, eapSettings: eap) NEHotspotConfigurationManager.shared.apply(configuration) { error in if let error = error { print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("Success") } } }

New features for APNs token authentication now available
Team-scoped keys introduce the ability to restrict your token authentication keys to either development or production environments. Topic-specific keys in addition to environment isolation allow you to associate each key with a specific Bundle ID streamlining key management. For detailed instructions on accessing these features, read our updated documentation on establishing a token-based connection to APNs.

CKQuerySubscription on public database never triggers APNS push in Production environment
Hi everyone, I have a SwiftUI app using CKQuerySubscription on the public database for social notifications (friend requests, recommendations, etc.). Push notifications work perfectly in the Development environment but never fire in Production (TestFlight). Setup: iOS 26.4, Xcode 26, Swift 6 Container: public database, CKQuerySubscription with .firesOnRecordCreation 5 subscriptions verified via CKDatabase.allSubscriptions() registerForRemoteNotifications() called unconditionally on every launch Valid APNS device token received in didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken Push Notifications + Background Modes (Remote notifications) capabilities enabled What works: All 5 subscriptions create successfully in Production Records are saved and queryable (in-app CloudKit fetches return them immediately) APNS production push works — tested via Xcode Push Notifications Console with the same device token, notification appeared instantly Everything works perfectly in the Development environment (subscriptions fire, push arrives) What doesn't work: When a record is created that matches a subscription predicate, no APNS push is ever delivered in Production Tested with records created from the app (device to device) and from CloudKit Dashboard — neither triggers push Tried: fresh subscription IDs, minimal NotificationInfo (just alertBody), stripped shouldSendContentAvailable, created an APNs key, toggled Push capability in Xcode, re-deployed schema from dev to prod Additional finding: One of my record types (CompletionNotification) was returning BAD_REQUEST when creating a subscription in Production, despite working in Development. Re-deploying the development schema to production (which reported "no changes") fixed the subscription creation. This suggests the production environment had inconsistent subscription state for that record type, possibly from the type being auto-created by a record save before formal schema deployment. I suspect a similar issue may be affecting the subscription-to-APNS pipeline for all my record types — the subscriptions exist and predicates match, but the production environment isn't wiring them to APNS delivery. Subscription creation code (simplified): let subscription = CKQuerySubscription( recordType: "FriendRequest", predicate: NSPredicate(format: "receiverID == %@ AND status == %@", userID, "pending"), subscriptionID: "fr-sub-v3", options: [.firesOnRecordCreation] ) let info = CKSubscription.NotificationInfo() info.titleLocalizationKey = "Friend Request" info.alertLocalizationKey = "FRIEND_REQUEST_BODY" info.alertLocalizationArgs = ["senderUsername"] info.soundName = "default" info.shouldBadge = true info.desiredKeys = ["senderUsername", "senderID"] info.category = "FRIEND_REQUEST" subscription.notificationInfo = info try await database.save(subscription) Has anyone encountered this? Is there a way to "reset" the subscription-to-APNS pipeline for a production container? I'd really appreciate any guidance on how to resolve and get my push notifications back to normal. Many thanks, Dimitar - LaterRex

App rejected 13+ times for UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities after adding DeviceActivity extensions — what am I missing?
I've been stuck on Guideline 2.3 for two weeks now and I'm running out of ideas. My app is iPhone-only (UIDeviceFamily = [1]) and has been on the App Store since January. Version 2.1.9 passed review fine. The only change in 2.1.10 is adding two DeviceActivity extensions — a DeviceActivityMonitor and a DeviceActivityReport — for screen time-based stress detection. Every build since then gets rejected with the same message: "The UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key in the Info.plist is set up in such a way that the app will not install on the device used in review." Review devices: iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPad Air M3. Here's what I've tried across 13+ submissions: UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities as ["arm64"] (array) — rejected Empty array [] — rejected Removed the key entirely — upload validation fails, Xcode re-injects arm64 anyway Post-build script to force ["arm64"] — rejected Dictionary format {"arm64": true} — rejected Added com.apple.developer.family-controls to extension entitlements — rejected Enabled Family Controls (Distribution) on extension bundle IDs — rejected Fixed CFBundleVersion mismatch between host app and extensions — rejected Set TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY=1 on all targets including extensions — rejected Tried GENERATE_INFOPLIST_FILE=YES with minimal plists — rejected Tried ExtensionKit type for the report extension — rejected In the exported IPA, every target has UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities = ["arm64"] and UIDeviceFamily = [1]. The entitlements, provisioning profiles, and code signing all look correct. arm64 is supported on every review device they listed. The previous version (2.1.9) without DeviceActivity extensions passes review with the exact same UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities and signing configuration. Has anyone shipped an app with DeviceActivityMonitor + DeviceActivityReport extensions successfully? Is there something specific about these extension types that affects device capability validation? Or is there a known issue with the review system and FamilyControls extensions? I've replied to the review team multiple times asking which specific capability is causing the failure, but the response is always the same generic template. Any guidance would be really appreciated — I'm completely blocked on shipping this update.

DeviceActivityMonitor extension rejected by App Store Connect validator — NSExtensionPointIdentifier "com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor" invalid (IrisAPI -19241)
Hi everyone, I'm building an iOS app that uses a DeviceActivityMonitor app extension as part of the Screen Time / Family Controls API. Every time I try to upload my IPA to App Store Connect, the validation fails with this error: "Invalid Info.plist value. The value of the NSExtensionPointIdentifier key, com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor, in the Info.plist of 'Alexandria.app/PlugIns/AlexandriaActivityMonitor.appex' is invalid." Error Domain=IrisAPI Code=-19241, iris-code=STATE_ERROR.VALIDATION_ERROR What I have verified (everything looks correct): NSExtensionPointIdentifier = com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor NSExtensionPrincipalClass = AlexandriaActivityMonitor.AlexandriaActivityMonitorExtension (correctly resolved in the compiled binary, verified with plutil -p) The Swift class correctly subclasses DeviceActivityMonitor CFBundleShortVersionString matches the main app Both the main app and extension provisioning profiles explicitly contain com.apple.developer.family-controls = true (verified by inspecting embedded.mobileprovision inside the IPA) The binary code signature itself contains com.apple.developer.family-controls = true (verified with codesign -d --entitlements :-) Family Controls entitlement was requested and approved in the Developer Portal for both App IDs Tested with both Xcode 26.2 (iOS 26 SDK) and Xcode 16.4 (iOS 18 SDK) — same error in both cases The IPA is structurally correct. The error comes purely from Apple's server-side IrisAPI validator and does not correspond to anything I can identify or fix in the code or configuration. Has anyone successfully submitted an app with a DeviceActivityMonitor extension to App Store Connect recently? Is there a backend approval requirement for com.apple.deviceactivity.monitor beyond the standard Family Controls entitlement approval? Could this be a known validator bug for this specific extension type? Any help appreciated.

Regression / Feature Request: Jumbo Frame (MTU 9000) support missing in AppleUserECM for RTL8156 2.5G USB adapters
Hello, I am currently developing a headless macOS daemon (HarmonBridge) that requires extremely low-latency, high-bandwidth UDP video streaming between a Mac and a Linux host over a dedicated 2.5GbE/5GbE local network link. We are utilizing widely available Realtek RTL8156 / RTL8156B based USB 2.5G network adapters. Under macOS, these adapters default to the generic com.apple.DriverKit.AppleUserECM driver. The hardware itself natively supports Jumbo Frames (MTU 9000), but the DriverKit implementation artificially restricts the MTU cap to 1500 bytes. Because we are forced through MTU 1500, we are incurring significant performance penalties: Excessive IP fragmentation for our large UDP video payloads. Unnecessary CPU overhead due to increased hardware interrupts and header processing at 2.5Gbps speeds. For a latency-critical application like ours, reducing CPU interrupts and utilizing true hardware-level Jumbo Frames is essential. My Questions: Is there an undocumented boot-arg or network sysctl parameter that permits overriding the AppleUserECM 1500 MTU hard-limit for 2.5G USB adapters on Apple Silicon? Are there any roadmap plans from the DriverKit/Networking team to re-enable standard Jumbo Frame negotiation for RTL8156 hardware using the generic ECM driver? If the answer to both is no, does Apple grant NetworkingDriverKit Entitlements to independent developers specifically for the purpose of writing custom hardware overrides to patch missing MTU features in the default ECM stack? Because AppleUserECM effectively acts as a gatekeeper to the underlying MAC/PHY capabilities of these modern USB NICs, any guidance on achieving wire-native MTU 9000 under the current DriverKit paradigm would be hugely appreciated. Thank you!

CarPlay Stopped Working on Upgrade to iPhone 17 Pro + iOS 26
Have a 2019 Ford Edge w/ Sync 3.4, wired carplay. Worked fine w/ iPhone 16 Pro on iOS 18. Upgraded to iPhone 17 Pro, came w/ iOS 26, carplay hasn't worked since. I've kept trying throughout new iOS 26 releases, lately with iOS 26.3 Public Beta 1, still not working. Have a long running issue with updates and system diagnostics as I've tried over the last few months: FB20739050 There is also a Apple support community thread with issues like this (and a ton of others) - my first post there was https://discussions.apple.com/thread/256138283?answerId=261613103022&sortBy=oldest_first#261613103022 I'm hoping here in the developer forums someone can maybe take a look at the feedback item and various system diagnostics to pin-point the issue. I'm a little concerned it's still not fixed this far into the follow-up point releases of iOS 26. Appreciate any help, thanks! --Chuck

CarPlay Function lost (26.4 and 26.5 DB)
with the latest updates on two of our iPhones run running 26.4 and the other 26.5 developed beta we have lost the ability to use CarPlay functionality via the Apple certified cable. Both phone showed the phone is connected and it is charging however functionality are greyed out on display in the 2022 Nissan rogue. Bluetooth still function properly as you could send and receive calls. However, functionality via the cable does not work. You cannot play music either. this feature also greyed. A trip to the Nissan dealer for more troubleshooting provided the following. A version 15 iPhone Connect via usb-c cable and functioned properly. As well as an android device. But again, hook up two iPhones one with version 26.5 DB and the other 26.4 both iPhone 14 would not work. After we left the dealership, I had a hunch that the issue with the latest update that both of these phones received over last week. I came home and connected an iPhone 6S which has a much older software version and it connected to CarPlay displayed maps and played music. Hopefully we can get another update soon that will resolve the issue via the lightning cable connection.

iOS 12.5.8 fails to bootstrap app
Hello, I released a new build for my app but it fails to run on iOS 12.5.8 (tested on iPad Air, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s). The launch storybard is shown, then the app stops abruptly. There is no crash log. It runs fine on iOS 13 or higher. Xcode 26.3 was showing a call stack (something with UIView) that did not include any app code. Now with Xcode 26.4 (and its new command line tools) there is an info popup with a debug metadata dump. However, I don’t intend to focus on Xcode here because it officially does not support iOS 12. It’s ok if I cannot debug, I just want the app to run on the device like the previous build did. Since there is no crash log, and the console is showing a bootstrap error, I believe my app code has not been executed and is therefore not at fault. Build 674 released on 23-Mar-2026: worked fine on iOS 12, built with Xcode 26.3 Build 675 released on 29-Mar-2026: Bootstrap error as described, with both Xcode 26.3 and 26.4 Deployment target = 12.4 Tried Instruments but it fails as soon as I hit record. In the console I found BKSProcessErrorDomain code 1. Here on the forum I found a post where the cause was no internet access but my device does have internet access. I made only very little code changes to my app between 674 and 675, no storyboard updates. I get the impression the loader does not even begin to execute my code. At this point I wonder if: some certificate has expired (see release dates above), or if something is incompatible in my main storyboard (though I did not change anything there), or the device ran out of memory (1 GB) Note: The app has 4 targets: main app target framework AU app extension intents app extension Thanks, Sven PS: Misclicked subtopic which should have been General (sorry).

Kernel panics on M5 devices with network extension
Hello, We have a security solution which intercepts network traffic for inspection using a combination of Transparent Proxy Provider and Content filter. Lately we are seeing reports from the market that on M5 Macbooks and A18 Neos the system will kernel panic using our solution, even though it never happens on M1-M4 and no significant code changes were made in the mean time. All crashes seem to be related to an internal double free in the kernel: panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe003bb68224): skmem_slab_free_locked: attempt to free invalid or already-freed obj 0xf2fffe29e15f2400 on skm 0xf6fffe2518aaa200 @skmem_slab.c:646 Debugger message: panic Memory ID: 0xff OS release type: User OS version: 25D2128 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 25.3.0: Wed Jan 28 20:54:38 PST 2026; root:xnu-12377.91.3~2/RELEASE_ARM64_T6050 Additionally, from further log inspection, before panics we find some weird kernel messages which seem to be related to some DMA operations gone wrong in the network driver on some machines: 2026-03-30 14:11:21.779124+0300 0x30f2 Default 0x0 873 0 Arc: (Network) [com.apple.network:connection] [C9.1.1.1 IPv4#e5b4bb04:443 in_progress socket-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, ipv6, dns, uses wifi, flow divert agg: 1, LQM: good)] event: flow:start_connect @0.075s 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780015+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (402262746): No more valid control units, disabling flow divert 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780017+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (402262746): Skipped all flow divert services, disabling flow divert 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780102+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: SK[2]: flow_entry_alloc fe "0 proc kernel_task(0)Arc nx_port 1 flow_uuid D46E230E-B826-4E0A-8C59-4C4C8BF6AA60 flags 0x14120<CONNECTED,QOS_MARKING,EXT_PORT,EXT_FLOWID> ipver=4,src=<IPv4-redacted>.49703,dst=<IPv4-redacted>.443,proto=0x06 mask=0x0000003f,hash=0x04e0a750 tp_proto=0x06" 2026-03-30 14:11:21.780194+0300 0x1894 Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: tcp connect outgoing: [<IPv4-redacted>:49703<-><IPv4-redacted>:443] interface: en0 (skipped: 0) so_gencnt: 14634 t_state: SYN_SENT process: Arc:873 SYN in/out: 0/1 bytes in/out: 0/0 pkts in/out: 0/0 rtt: 0.0 ms rttvar: 250.0 ms base_rtt: 0 ms error: 0 so_error: 0 svc/tc: 0 flow: 0x9878386f 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934431+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: Hit error condition (not panicking as we're in error handler): t8110dart <private> (dart-apcie0): invalid SID 2 TTBR access: level 1 table_index 0 page_offset 0x2 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934432+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.511690]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 6 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.511696]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 9 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.569033]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 6 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934441+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.569038]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 9 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.577453]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 7 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.586328]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 5 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.586332]: arm_cpu_init(): cpu 8 online 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934442+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.621392]: (dart-apcie0) AppleT8110DART::_fatalException: dart-apcie0 (<ptr>): DART DART SID exception ERROR_SID_SUMMARY 0x00003000 ERROR_ADDRESS 0x0000000000009800 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934443+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: [ 73.621397]: Hit error condition (not panicking as we're in error handler): 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934443+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: t8110dart <ptr> (dart-apcie0): invalid SID 2 TTBR access: level 1 table_index 0 page_offset 0x2Expect a `deadbeef` in the error messages below 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934452+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: Expect a `deadbeef` in the error messages below 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934456+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (AppleEmbeddedPCIE) apcie[0:centauri-control]::_dartErrorHandler() InvalidPTE caused by read from address 0x9800 by SID 2 (RID 2:0:1/useCount 1/device <private>) 2026-03-30 14:11:21.934469+0300 0xed Default 0x0 0 0 kernel: (AppleT8110DART) Ignored dart-apcie0 (0xfbfffe18820b0000): DART(DART) error: SID 2 PTE invalid exception on read of DVA 0x9800 (SEG 0 PTE 0x2) ERROR_SID_SUMMARY 0x00003000 TIME 0x11242d43fd TTE 0xffffffffffffffff AXI_ID 0 We do not have any correlation between machines, usage pattern or installed applications. Uninstalling the network protection features seem to largely fix the issues, even though we have heard of crashes happening even in safe mode or with our network extension disabled from system settings. We weren't able to reproduce internally and it seems to happen completely random on client machines, but often enough to be disrupting. Can you tell us please if this is a known problem and if there's a workaround or what can we do to narrow it down? Thanks.

EADemo Not Sending/Recieving Session Packets
Hi, We are currently in the process of getting an custom iAP2 device communicating via USB-C. We have been using the 'EADemo' app as a test app to ensure full function before certification. Currently, the device completes the authentication and identification successfully. The device appears within the 'EADemo' app, and we are able to select it and see the available protocol. Selecting the protocol sends the EAStartSession command to the accessory and we ACK it. This is where the issues begin. Attempting to send either a string or hex packet results in nothing being sent. The app does not appear to attempt to send a packet when these are pressed. The 'EADemo' app also does not increment its receive counter when the accessory sends an EA packet, but we do receive the ACK from the device. This indicates the device is receiving the packet, but not processing it in app. Sending the EASessionStatus from the accessory with a status of okay does not change the behavior. Sending the EASessionStatus packet from the accessory with a status of closed results in the device sending an EAStopSession packet. The issue does not appear to be with the accessory or the underlying transport layer. Previous attempts to contact MFi support resulted in them referring me to developer support. Are there any known issues within the 'EADemo' app that we should know about/and or need to fix? Does Apple have any other EA example application? Are there any other publicly avalilbe EA examples that Apple would recommend us trying? Thanks, Mike

Availability for BLE background scanning on watchOS whilst dimmed
I am trying to find out about the availability of BLE scanning for advertisements when a watchOS app (on watchOS 26.4 with CoreBluetooth) which starts running a HKWorkoutSession becomes dimmed, ie. due to the user lowering their arm. From my understanding there is still availability for ongoing scanning whilst in the dimmed mode. If this is correct, what settings are required (e.g. using background capability for 'Workout Processing', 'bluetooth-central', etc), and does scanning whilst in background mode limit to requiring service uuids in scanForPeripherals? Also if scanning is throttled, is there an 'estimated' inter scan time? Thanks

Wallet no longer appear near iBeacon
Hello, We are testing Wallet passes with iBeacons in iOS 26 Beta. In earlier iOS releases, when a device was in proximity to a registered beacon, the corresponding pass would surface automatically. In iOS 26 Beta, this behavior no longer occurs, even if the pass is already present in Wallet. I have not found documentation of this change in the iOS 26 release notes. Could you please confirm whether this is expected in iOS 26, or if it may be a Beta-specific issue? Any pointers to updated documentation would be appreciated. Thank you.

Tahoe 26.4 breaks custom paths with NetFSMountURLSync?
Just wondering if anyone ran into this issue. I use NetFSMountURLSync for my application with which I allow the user to use a custom path as a mount point (instead of "/Volumes"). This has worked just fine for at least a decade now, but ... since the Tahoe 26.4 "update" mounting to a custom path only generates errors. Note: Mounting to "/Volumes" works correctly (mountpoint = NIL). Since I'm unaware of any changes; is this a bug introduced by Tahoe 26.4, or should I be using a different function to mount a network share?

26.4 beta and RC versions are unable to be created on anything but 26.4 beta host OS
We're trying to create 26.4 beta and RC VMs on 15.x and 26.3 host OS' without success. We see Tue Mar 17 17:27:36 40 anka.log (install) 45803: failed to install macOS: Error Domain=VZErrorDomain Code=10006 "Installation requires a software update." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailure=A software update is required to complete the installation., NSLocalizedFailureReason=Installation requires a software update.} Yet, if we create it the same way on 26.4 beta host OS, it works. We've tried the usual tricks of installing latest Xcode and preparing it (accepting license, etc). But, they don't work on 26.3 and 15.x. What's the trick to get the creation of 26.4 to work on <= 26.3 host OS?

NWHotSpotConfiguration not providing a helpful error message
I have the following code that is attempting to set up Hotspot 2.0 using an EAP-TLS configuration. I am importing a pk12 file and using those certificates. I have tried all manner of permutations for the configuration, and have narrowed down all the errors I was getting and now I am just getting a generic: Error: invalid EAP settings. I have tried adding the identity separately and either get an entitlements issue which I can't figure out why since I have added the required network extension sharing groups, or a duplicate item error, meaning it was already correctly added. The certificate and configuration are correctly working through an Android app already. static let accessGroup: String? = { guard let prefix = Bundle.main.object(forInfoDictionaryKey: "AppIdentifierPrefix") as? String else { print("Could not load group") return nil } return "\(prefix)com.apple.networkextensionsharing" }() static func setupHotspot(data: CertificateData) { let h20 = NEHotspotHS20Settings(domainName: data.realm, roamingEnabled: false) h20.naiRealmNames = [data.realm] var result: CFArray? let options: [CFString: Any] = [ kSecImportExportPassphrase: "**********", kSecAttrLabel: "ident:\(data.user)", kSecAttrAccessGroup: accessGroup!, kSecReturnPersistentRef: true ] let status = SecPKCS12Import(data.p12 as CFData, options as CFDictionary, &result) guard status == errSecSuccess, let importResult = result as? [[String: Any]], let resultDict = importResult.first else { print("P12 Import failed: \(status)") return } let identity = resultDict[kSecImportItemIdentity as String] as! SecIdentity let eap = NEHotspotEAPSettings() eap.supportedEAPTypes = [NEHotspotEAPSettings.EAPType.EAPTLS.rawValue as NSNumber] eap.isTLSClientCertificateRequired = true eap.trustedServerNames = [ data.realm ] eap.outerIdentity = "anonymous" guard eap.setIdentity( identity ) else { print("setIdentity failed") return } let configuration = NEHotspotConfiguration(hs20Settings: h20, eapSettings: eap) NEHotspotConfigurationManager.shared.apply(configuration) { error in if let error = error { print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("Success") } } }
