Facial recognition is not working with the glasses. I tried to do a new recognition with the glasses, and it's giving a direct error. Is anyone having the same problem?

Hey guys!
I'm currently designing an app that will implement the 20-20-20 rule. This eye health technique has personally helped millions of people around the world, including myself, as it allowed me to control my eyesight that was significantly growing at one point.
After moving to a new house, I for some reason began lowering how much I followed the rule. I researched apps on the app store and other Reddit threads, but it doesn't seem to exist (at least, on mobile), so I decided to make my own.
Before deployment, I wanted to test the waters and gauge interest for such a project and platform. If you're interested in this, or just want to help a fellow Swift dev out, please fill out this quick form (I will use this as a waitlist eventually)!

Thanks a lot for your support! Happy to answer any questions!

I 'upgraded' to Tahoe 26.0 public beta & since then my contacts will not synch to the iCloud. All other synching functions (eg. calendar, reminders messages, notes etc.) are fine. Have tried a bunch of different ways to restore this, but so far I haven't been successful. Anyone else have this issue & better still, were able to fix it? Or do I simply need to be patient & wait for the next public beta release?
Hello everyone! I encountered a problem, Apple Watch 10, downloaded beta version 26 IOS, got tired of it, deleted in the settings to the previous IOS. As a result, now I deleted 26 IOS on the phone and can not connect the watch with the phone.
我的app在visionos 26之前版本都没问题,在visionos 26.0 beta4回偶现崩溃,崩溃日志如下,请帮忙查看一下是什么原因。

I have been working with Apple Support since May 2025 when I could no longer access my files stored on iCloud Drive. I've spoken with at least 5 different Senior Advisors who continue to tell me that it's been turned over to engineering and theres nothing else I can do.
I am beyond frustrated at this point. If this were an Apple Server that crashed those files and that server would be replaced ASAP likely in less than 24 hours.
I cannot access from ANY device -iPad, iPhone, Macbook Pro, iMac, even from the web on a Windows machine at work. Nothing, it just crashes / unexpectedly quit.
Please Help!

I have experienced a big bug in all my social media’s and WhatsApp just after installing the iOS 26 on the phone all my social media account I know blocked by meta and suffering

After updating my iPhone 16 Pro Max to iOS 26, I began experiencing serious performance issues while playing Delta Force Garena. The game struggles to maintain a stable 120 FPS, frequently dropping to 30 FPS or lower, causing severe lag and stuttering especially during intense action or in open environments.
There’s also a critical bug when I open the in-game chat: once the chat is opened, I become completely unable to move or perform any actions. The only solution is to force close and restart the game. The chat feature becomes totally unusable in this state.
What makes this even more frustrating is that I’ve seen Android devices running the game at higher resolutions and with stable 120 FPS, despite having technically weaker processors than the A18 Pro chip in my iPhone which Apple claims is the most powerful mobile chip. In reality, the game runs significantly better on my Galaxy S23 Ultra, with no frame drops and much smoother performance overall.
This makes my iPhone feel like an outdated device with poor optimization, which is disappointing given its specs and price.
Every week or so, mouse driver locks up. The LED laser goes out and none of the buttons operate. It's a generic 7 button USB mouse with my USB keyboard still active. I do not know what precipitates the lockup and a system diagnostic request (Sft-Alt-Ctl-Cmd .) does not seem to yield anything useful.
> ps -ef|grep -i mouse
501 579 1 0 Mon01PM ?? 0:04.42 /System/Library/ExtensionKit/Extensions/MouseExtension.appex/Contents/MacOS/MouseExtension
code-block
so the mouse extension was running at the time. With a "sudo kill -HUP 579" it did not restart.
Also, switching to a different mouse did no good. The mouse driver was behaving like it was deadlocked and I didn't know the correct incantation for restarting it. I power cycle reset the box.
SO:
you have a mouse driver problem
it cannot be just me
It behaves like a deadlock, but not knowing how to get a mouse driver dump, I cannot tell what lock(s) its waiting for.
Sehr geehrtes Apple-Team,
ich bin seit mehreren Jahren aktiver Teilnehmer am Public Beta-Programm und habe in dieser Zeit zahlreiche Feedbackmeldungen über die Feedback Assistant App eingereicht – teils mit ausführlicher Fehlerbeschreibung, Screenshots oder systematischer Reproduktionshilfe.
Leider bleibt bei mir als Nutzer der Eindruck zurück, dass dieses Feedback ins Leere läuft. Viele meiner Meldungen stehen seit Jahren im Status „Offen“, ohne jegliche Rückmeldung oder sichtbare Bearbeitung. Auch wenn mir bewusst ist, dass eine individuelle Antwort nicht vorgesehen ist, fehlt mir zumindest eine Bestätigung, dass das Feedback angekommen ist, bewertet wurde oder an die zuständige Stelle weitergeleitet wurde.
Ich wünsche mir als engagierter Tester mehr Transparenz im Umgang mit unseren Rückmeldungen – sei es durch eine automatische Eingangsbestätigung, eine grobe Statusanzeige (z. B. „dupliziert“, „weitergeleitet“, „behoben in Version XY“) oder gelegentliche Hinweise, wie viele Probleme durch die Community-Beiträge erkannt und gelöst wurden.
Diese kleine Form der Anerkennung würde die Motivation vieler freiwilliger Tester stärken und das Vertrauen in den Prozess erhöhen. So wie es derzeit gestaltet ist, entsteht eher das Gegenteil: Frustration, Zweifel am Nutzen des Feedbacks und damit auch weniger Bereitschaft, zukünftige Probleme zu melden.
Ich hoffe sehr, dass Sie diese Anregung intern weitergeben – auch im Sinne der langfristigen Qualitätssicherung Ihrer Software.
Vielen Dank.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Christian
Dear Apple Team,
I have been an active Public Beta tester for several years and have submitted many reports via the Feedback Assistant – often with detailed descriptions, reproduction steps, and screenshots.
Unfortunately, from a user’s perspective, it feels like this feedback disappears into a black hole. Most of my reports remain marked as “Open” for years, without any indication of review or resolution. I understand that individual responses are not part of the process, but there is no confirmation that feedback is received, reviewed, or forwarded internally.
As a committed tester, I would greatly appreciate more transparency in the feedback process – for example, a short confirmation message, a basic status indicator (e.g., “duplicate”, “forwarded”, “resolved in version XY”) or even general updates about how user feedback contributes to product improvement.
These small gestures would strengthen trust in the process and encourage ongoing contributions. The current silence, however, tends to demotivate testers and raises doubts about the usefulness of reporting bugs at all.
I hope you will consider this suggestion and possibly forward it to the responsible internal teams.
Sincerely,
Christian

Lucid app frozen after ios26 beets install. Any ideas when the fix will occur?
Hi, I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 26.0 (beta).
After installing the update, I get a message stating that I need to update my Apple account settings. When I log in, it freezes and nothing can be done.
I also can't access the login and security settings, as it also freezes and won't progress.
Also, the option to install beta versions has disappeared. I don't know why? Could it be that since I have the latest beta, the option disappears until a new update?
Please help!
tried the usual vol up, vol dn, hold power button until apple logo, but that doesn’t work for me… just brings up siri.
i was able to tell siri to restart the ipad, but not sure if that was a hard reboot.

Hi everyone,
I’m working on a concept for an iOS app that would allow a user to remotely control an Enterprise iOS device, similar to how AnyDesk or TeamViewer work on desktop.
I understand that apps like TeamViewer for iOS offer screen sharing, and some level control but not a full level control.
Before I invest further in development, I’d like to clarify a few points:
Is there any official Apple-supported way (public or private API) to allow remote control of an iOS device?
Has Apple ever approved apps that allow true remote control of iOS (not just screen sharing)?
If full control is not allowed, what are the permitted alternatives (e.g. screen broadcast via ReplayKit, remote assistance mode, etc.)?
Would such an app be considered for enterprise distribution only (via MDM), or is there a potential App Store path?
Any insight or experience from developers who’ve tried this would be very appreciated.
Thanks!
The information menu in the settings doesn’t work. It automatically exits to the main screen.
