iOS App Stuck in Review for Several Days – Is This Normal?
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm an independent iOS developer, and my app has been showing the "In Review" status in App Store Connect for several days without any updates. I understand that Apple has a thorough review process to ensure apps meet its quality and security standards, and I fully respect that process. However, I'm concerned about the extended review time and would appreciate some guidance from developers who have experienced similar situations. I have a few questions: Is it normal for an iOS app to remain "In Review" for several days? Has anyone experienced similar delays recently? Is there a recommended way to check whether additional information is required? Should I continue waiting or contact Apple Developer Support? The app has been submitted successfully, and I haven't received any rejection notices or requests for additional information. I'd appreciate any insights or advice from fellow developers or Apple engineers. Thank you for your time and support!

File converter
Hi everyone!!! I need your help. Now I build an app, for my usage, where I can convert first format into second format. For example, .pages into .pdf (yes I know that I can do this in pages app but I wanna do more functional for my work) or .xlsx into .pages ets. Maybe I need more libraries than 1 or 2, I don't know Thank you an advance

Universal Clipboard iPhone to Mac stops working until iPhone restart (FB24740548)
Universal Clipboard from iPhone to Mac works after an iPhone restart, then silently stops after a while. Mac to iPhone and Mac to Mac keep working. Only restarting the iPhone fixes it; toggling Bluetooth or Handoff does not. What the Mac's unified log shows while broken (useractivityd + sharingd): Mac to Mac (working): Received Ad ... CopyPasteKey = 1, then [PBOARD] Received pboard available advertisement, then Requesting complete: 1713 bytes, error: (null). iPhone to Mac (broken): zero Received Ad and zero pboard advertisements from the iPhone, even while copying every few seconds with the phone next to the Mac. No errors. The Mac still recognises the iPhone as a paired own-account device (Paired yes, identity resolved, distance Immediate), so pairing and receiving are fine. So the iPhone appears to stop broadcasting Handoff advertisements entirely, and the stuck state survives Bluetooth and Handoff toggles.

License Agreement shows accepted, but App Store Connect still asks me to accept it
On developer.apple.com, my Apple Developer Program License Agreement shows as “Accepted October 17, 2026”. App Store Connect still has the banner saying it “has been updated and needs to be reviewed”, and there’s no button to accept it. Because of this I can’t create an app, and the API returns FORBIDDEN.REQUIRED_AGREEMENTS_MISSING_OR_EXPIRED. I’ve signed out and back in and waited over 12 hours. How do I get this cleared?

macOS Tahoe 26.6 Beta: iPhone Mirroring & AirDrop Broken in Primary User Account
I’m using an Apple M4 iMac on macOS Tahoe 26.6 Beta and an iPhone 16 Pro Max on iOS 26.5. After updating, my iPhone 16 Pro Max no longer appears under iPhone Mirroring settings, and both iPhone Mirroring and AirDrop stopped working from my primary macOS account. The strange part: Apple Support had me create a new macOS user account, and everything worked immediately there. The iPhone appeared correctly, Mirroring worked, and AirDrop worked. When I switch back to my primary account, the iPhone disappears again and neither feature works. My primary account still works normally with my iPad Air M3 and iPhone 12 Pro, so the issue seems specific to the iPhone 16 Pro Max and my original macOS profile. Has anyone else seen this issue or found a fix?

GridBot for iPhone: feedback on first launch, backtests and paper demo
I’m the developer of GridBot for iPhone and would appreciate feedback from up to 10 volunteer beta testers on the first-launch experience, backtest presentation (especially drawdowns), and the paper-trading demo. Platform: iOS. Planned App Store category: Finance. This testing round uses the paper-only demo server. No deposits, real trades or exchange API keys are needed. The app also contains live mode for users with their own server and exchange setup; please use only the paper demo for this test. Public beta: https://testflight.apple.com/join/CAtQ4vbE Installation on iPhone: install Apple’s free TestFlight app, return to this invitation and open the beta link again. Tap View in TestFlight if shown, then Accept and Install to install GridBot. If TestFlight is already installed, open the link directly. No email invitation or invitation code is needed. Please tell me where you hesitated during installation or first launch, whether paper mode was clear, and which backtest numbers were confusing. Screenshots and reproduction steps can be sent via TestFlight feedback. Historical results are not a promise of future trading performance.

An ampersand bug in stocks app
The native iOS Stocks app search engine contains a character parsing bug that completely excludes Indian stock tickers containing an ampersand (&) from search indices. Major NSE/BSE large-cap symbols like Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) and Amara Raja Energy & Mobility (ARE&M) do not populate in search results by ticker, company name, or numerical BSE code, even though the data is actively available on the back-end data provider (Yahoo Finance). Please fix the text sanitization engine for regional exchange feeds

MacBook Pro apps open unexpectedly after closing lid
This occurred after I had closed all apps before closing the lid. I received answer to this on apple regular support but was told that my post had been removed from the regular support service and the question had been moved here because it involved beta software. I do not recall agreeing to be a part of any beta software participation. I have been having issues with my computer doing weird things which I had communicated to the regular support group (icons for apps popping up on the desktop.... and some were banking related - not necessarily the app icon itself, but one of the files that if clicked would open the banking app) . Does anyone know what is going on and where this problem is coming from. What is going on? I do test software for 1 developer, but that developer has nothing to do with what is happening,.

Subscription products stuck “Ready for Review” ~2 weeks, StoreKit consistently fails to serve products (reproduced by App Review itself)
App: SWIV: Make Tonight Count (App Store ID 6780966934). Our 4 auto-renewable subscription products have been in “Ready for Review” for approximately two weeks. We’ve confirmed via Sentry crash reporting that StoreKit consistently fails to serve these products: [RevenueCat] Error fetching offerings - The operation couldn't be completed. (RevenueCat.OfferingsManager.Error error 1.) None of the products registered in the RevenueCat dashboard could be fetched from App Store Connect. This reproduces identically on our own test devices and was independently reproduced by Apple’s own App Review reviewer during a retest — ruling out any client-side, account-specific, or configuration issue on our end. We’ve verified: Paid Applications Agreement active, product metadata complete, product IDs matching exactly between App Store Connect and RevenueCat, pricing set for all territories. Has anyone encountered StoreKit failing to serve subscription products stuck in “Ready for Review” for an extended period? Any insight into what might cause a persistent backend sync failure like this would be appreciated.

No response to Apple Developer Support ticket (case 102989346509) after 5 days
Hi all, I opened a support ticket with Apple Developer Program Support on 8 October 2026 (case ID 102989346509). I received the automated acknowledgement email the same day but have had no further response since, it's now been 6 days of silence. Has anyone had success getting a stalled support case like this actually picked up? Is there a better channel than the web form to follow up, or is there someone who could take a look at case 102989346509? Thanks in advance.

False "Cool Down" / Overheating Alert in Cold & AC Environments (iOS 27 / iOS 27.2 Beta)
Title: False "Cool Down" / Overheating Alert in Cold & AC Environments (iOS 27 / iOS 27.2 Beta) Device: iPhone 15 Pro (A17 Pro) OS: iOS 27 / iOS 27.2 Beta Body: I am reporting a persistent software sensor calibration bug specific to the iPhone 15 Pro. Issue Summary: The device triggers a false "Temperature / Cool Down Required" system alert specifically when moving into cold or air-conditioned (AC) environments, while operating 100% normally in warm ambient room temperatures. Key Observations & Version Testing: Environment Trigger: The thermal alert appears strictly upon cold transitions (micro-condensation/NTC sensor delta drop). Hardware Verification: I downgraded to stable iOS 26, and the issue COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED in both hot and cold environments. This confirms the physical NTC thermistors and hardware are fully operational. Regression: Updating back to iOS 27 and iOS 27.2 Beta immediately brought the issue back. It seems the NTC sensor readout logic / thermal governor algorithm in iOS 27 incorrectly registers sudden cold temperature drops as a thermal anomaly. Please flag this for the thermal QA team for the next iOS update.

Can I use a foreign bank account for Apple Developer payouts if my company is registered in India?
My company is registered in India, and I receive payouts from the Apple App Store in USD. I’m exploring services like xFlowPay to receive payouts in USD and avoid high bank conversion charges. Does Apple allow using a bank account from a different country than the country where my company is registered for App Store payouts? Has anyone successfully done this, and are there any restrictions or verification requirements?

review ios 27 on iphone 16 pro
I am currently using iOS 27.0 on my iPhone 16 Pro, and I’ve noticed that the native camera app feels very sluggish—even slower than it was on iOS 26. It is particularly disappointing when I tap the screen to focus; the lag is real. Are other users experiencing the same thing?
