Online Gambling app Fee structure
Hello, I am writing a research paper for my college marketing class and was hoping to get some insight as to the cost structure applicable to an online gambling app. The hypothetical app in question is an app in which users are able to use real money to bet on games but I can not find a cost structure besides the common in app purchase revenue sharing model of 30%. Is this still applicable in this hypothetical case or is an alternative revenue sharing model applicable due to this app's unique structure. Furthermore, would this fee be taken from bets (due to the apps losses) or from all realized profits?

kerberos without SSO on ios
Hello, at our school we are using a kerberos proxy. Now we will introduce ipads. In my tests I have set this proxy in wifi settings. On next internet connection I was asked for my account credentials. After that I had full access to internet with ALL apps. Obviously ios has set up a network relay which handles the kerberos authentication for the while device. I have searched for documentation on this topic, but you will find only docs for kerberos with SSO and per app tickets. Do someone has hints for this? Especially where are the password for the kerberos authentication stored on the ipad - it is not the same as in the wifi proxy settings! With regards, Helge

shared IPad - how to retrieve Managed Apple ID (email)
Hey everyone, Is it possible and how to get Managed Apple ID (email) programmatically for user signed in to ipad through shared IPad feature ? It would be good to have MDM independent solution, I mean API call to MDM service is not acceptable for us. Maybe API call to ASM or ABM, or get that somehow on iOS device end... any advice ? Thanks in advance, Dima

How to Create Organization Account
Hey Community! I am seeking your help. I have tried Apple Support but to no avail. I know they are busy with a lot of requests, understandable. I previously had my personal developer account (which I used to use for building apps). But then I started my own consultancy/business. Now I want to create apps for my organization. From what I understood from their guidelines: 1/ Create a new individual account with your organization. 2/ Somehow link it to an organization account using DUNS number, etc. I am still stuck at point 1 because it doesn't verify my personal ID (could this be because it is linked to my old personal account). Can someone walk me through the process of creating an organization account?

Apple ID & Apple School Manager
Is there a way for our app to deny Apple ID users from logging into the app if the Apple ID is not specifically managed by Apple School Manager? This would allow only students to be able to use the app. Basically is there a way for us to know if an Apple ID was created by Apple School Manager?

App versions delivered via Intune crash on my device but work on others at my organization, possibly due to being denylisted.
I have an in house application that I develop for my company. The application requires our corporate MDM profile is installed on the phone. I recently got a new phone and our corporate IT team installed the MDM profile and the Comp Portal application for me to manage our corporate applications. I installed the application through the Comp Portal. It crashes right away when I launch the application and I see this error message in the Console when connected to the phone: "SpringBoard Snapshot generation request for bundleID: com.mycompany.mygroup.appName rejected due to the app being denylisted." I see other errors from runningboardd about failing to spawn the job and SpringBoard Bootstrapping failed for <FBApplicationProcess: 0x510affd80; app<com.mycompany.mygroup.appName>:> with error: <NSError: 0x301e60090; domain: RBSRequestErrorDomain; code: 5; "Launch failed."> I can launch a development version of the application with no problem by connecting the USB cable from my machine to my device and running through XCode. Other people have no problems launching the application. I compared all the certificates in the management profile with another device where the application does not crash and there are identical. We checked a number of settings on the devices to see if there could be something preventing the application from running but found nothing. We reset all settings and deleted and reinstalled the application with rebooting to see if perhaps it was an incomplete installation. Our IT folks want to wipe the phone and start over but I have little confidence that will fix the issue since we don't know the root cause. I am concerned that one of my Stakeholders might have the same issue if they get a new device. This application worked fine on my old phone. Device: iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS version: 18.2.1 Any ideas on next steps to troubleshoot this issue? How can I figure out the cause of the denylisting?

Azure AD Graph API retirement and Apple Internet Accounts
Microsoft are retiring the “Azure AD Graph API”. We allow the use of Apple email apps in our M365 tenant via the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application, however this is using the “User.Read” permission from this retiring “Azure AD Graph API”. My concern is that Apple email app’s will stop working in our tenant when Microsoft retire the “Azure AD Graph API” and this permission is removed, as this is an Apple managed Enterprise Application, we have no method of changing the permissions ourselves. I have not been able to find any information on how the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application can be updated to use the required, newer “Microsoft Graph API” “User.Read” permission. It is not possible for us to change the permissions on the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application in our tenant, my assumption is that Apple would need to deploy a newer version of Email app that uses the newer “Microsoft Graph API” “User.Read” permission, and we would then need to consent the use of this new permission in our tenant. I would have thought Apple would have deploy this by now, but we have not seen any consent requests. Does anyone have any information about how Apple are handling this Microsoft change and how we can pre-emptively update the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application to ensure that Apple email client continue to work in our tenant? Many thanks.

Distribution of App to outside company
Apologies if this has been asked before, but I am struggling to understand what our options are for app distribution for a new (to our company) use case. Note: we have both an Enterprise account as well as a standard App Store account. We are developing an Apple Vision app for a client company. We need to be able to distribute the app to people within our company as well as within the client company for testing. Once that is complete, we need to be able to distribute the app to a select group of employees in the client company. The client company does not have an MDM, so we originally thought to distribute the app using TestFlight. But that is not available with our Enterprise account. Is this something we can manage with a Business account since the devices involved would belong to our client company instead of ours? Is there a different solution to this workflow within the existing tools provided by Apple? Or is the only option to help the client set up an MDM/set up our own MDM to manage client devices for this?

All is inhouse distributions apps stopped working after upgrading to version 18.2.1
The issue is with all our enterprise apps. All apps worked on version 18.1. For the few users that updated to 18.2.1 it stopped working after the update. I have a phone that had 18.2.1 installed before I added any enterprise apps, they work fine. So the issue is you have enterprise apps, update from 18.1 to 18.2.1 they stop working. Removing the app (and trust), and installing again doesn't solve the issue. On the app reinstall it's doesn't ask to add the trust or reboot, but the trust is added back. When running the app, it opens for a second or two, then closes.

Guideline 3.2 - Business
Hello, Thank you for your message. Regarding 3.2, we still find that your app is intended to be used by a specific business or organization, including partners, clients, or employees, but you've selected public distribution on the App Store in App Store Connect. To resolve this issue, it would be appropriate to review the other distribution options available for apps designed for specific businesses or organizations and choose a distribution option that works for your app and users. You can review these app distribution options on Apple Developer. I appreciate the help to get out of this inconvenience. Thank you.

IOS 18.3 Blocking HTTP SITES
We have several apps that our business uses to connect to internal private HTTP sites. We noticed in IOS 18.3 we are getting SSL errors to the web server and noticed the issue in the Chrome Browser as well. Our team is looking at the Application Transport Security layer exceptions in our apps Info.Plist. We do notice the browser forcing HTTPS. Any insight on what could be the issue?
