My account has been active and in good standing for the past 2 years, and during this time I have never received any warnings or issues.
Recently, after Apple reviewed my account, I received a notification about possible termination. After carefully reviewing the situation myself, I realized what may have caused this:
I originally registered my Apple Developer account as an Individual Developer Account,
However, the bank account used for App Store payments belongs to my registered company,
At the time, I was not aware that the legal entity of the bank account must match the Apple Developer account registration.
This was not done with any intention to misrepresent or misuse the platform. It was simply a misunderstanding of the account requirements.
We have never deceived our users or the Apple Review Team in any way. For us as developers, providing an excellent user experience has always been our top priority, and we have always aimed to follow Apple’s review and compliance standards closely. We sincerely hope that, given our situation, the Apple Review Team could grant us an opportunity to correct these issues.

So I downloaded and installed iOS26 on my iPhone 15 Pro and after that it does not want to boot anymore. It shows a battery with one red line. Which is weird because before it restarted it had 80% of the battery and I had the power cable connected at all time. Now I can't boot it up anymore. Not even with the volume button up, down, power button trick. Please help!
I’m looking for iOS and Apple Watch users to help beta test ChoreFit, a fitness app that transforms everyday chores into measurable workouts using NEAT (Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis) science.
What it does:
• Tracks chores like vacuuming, mopping, and laundry as real workouts
• Syncs with Apple Health for steps, heart rate, and calories
• Lets you start or pause chores right from your Apple Watch
• Adjusts effort based on body weight and optional weighted vests
What I need from testers:
• Install via TestFlight (link provided once approved)
• Use the app during normal household tasks
• Share feedback on usability, Apple Watch sync, and calorie accuracy
If you’re interested in movement tracking, fitness analytics, or wearable integration, I’d love your help validating and refining this app before public release.
«Hello everyone, after installing iOS 26, I noticed that on my iPhone 13 Pro, which had its battery replaced, the battery status in the settings shows 0%, and the phone does not charge more than 1%, no matter how long I leave it plugged in. The same problem is observed on iPhones 14 and lower where the battery (FB18154101) was replaced.»

With ios 26 the chapter images are not updating anymore. At first I thought this is carlay related but it also occures when the phone is connected only through USB or bluetooth to play a podcast. I tried Apple podcasts and other apps like Pocketcast or audible. Same problem. The phone shows the correct chapter image while my car shows the inital image all the time. Even tried a different car :-)
I checked focus and settings but found nothing related.
With ios18 everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Since updating to iOS 18.4 the auto-lock on iPhone 16 Pro isn’t functioning. All settings remain unchanged from previous versions, however the display will not turn off.
Same iOS on my older iPhone 11 doesn’t have the issue and screen turns off as usual with the same system settings.
Have tried a force restart on the 16 Pro, nothing changed. Any ideas?

We made a purchase to join the Apple Developer Program, but we have been waiting for 5 days and have not received any response such as an approval or rejection. Are you experiencing the same issue as well?
Hi there,
I am new to Xcode26 and dragged my AppIcon.icon (created with Icon Composer) into the project. Then build failed with "Could not locate icontool".
Could anyone point me to the cleanest way to solve this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I have filed 27 bug reports against macOS using Feedback Assistant and none have had any sort of follow-up.
I'm wondering if anyone at Apple looks at these reports?
A few of these involve accessibility features that are not working (for example: speak announcements doesn't work -- and yes, my feedback is much more detailed than "doesn't work"). I would have thought issues with accessibility would be a high priority for Apple to fix quickly.
Another report is that Grapher uses black text on dark gray making it very difficult to see the formula you enter. This should be a one-line code fix.
These two, and 25 other bug reports have seemingly been ignored. Several of these reports indicate more than 10 similar reports, yet go unfixed. Leading me back to my opening question -- does anyone at Apple read these reports?
I'd like to think I'm helping Apple to deliver a more perfect product but I feel like I'm wasting my time writing detailed bug reports. Is there another way to bring these to Apple's attention?

Hello Apple Developer Community,
I'm hoping someone can advise me on a serious issue. Our organization's Apple Developer Program account has been effectively locked because our Account Holder's Apple ID is inaccessible. I need to unlock that Apple ID so we can manage our apps.
I've already reached out to Apple Developer Support, but so far, I haven't received a response. This situation is critical because our clients rely on us to maintain and update our apps.
Key details (some info is masked for privacy): • We're enrolled as an Organization/Company. • The current Account Holder's Apple ID is locked and cannot perform any actions. • No other accounts have admin access.
If anyone has encountered a similar issue or knows a more efficient route to escalate, I'd be extremely grateful for your insights.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can share. This is critical to our organization, and we'd appreciate any pointers on how to navigate or expedite the support process.

When I try to create a post in Apple Support Community, it forces me to create a new account (for some supersmart reason because my apple account is apparently not enough). In this process, I am required to pick a new username and choose my communications preferences. The next screen? 403 Forbidden Error page.

I am writing to report an issue encountered while testing the iOS 26 beta. It appears that adding VPN configurations is currently not possible in this version.
Specifically, attempts to add a new VPN configuration through the Settings app or via programmatic configuration profiles are unresponsive.
As VPN functionality is essential for a number of development and enterprise use cases, I would appreciate it if your team could confirm whether this is a known issue, or provide guidance on any changes to VPN configuration handling in iOS 26.
Please let me know if additional diagnostic information or logs would be helpful.
Thank you for your support and for providing access to the iOS 26 beta.
Best regards,
Majid

Hello Apple Developer Community,
I need some assistance with my account. I created a new developer account for a new project I am working on, and paid the apple developer fee. Everything was working fine for a few weeks, I was able to get my app on TestFlight and invite testers to it, as well as push updates and get feedback. The testers were family/business partners.
As of a few days ago, I was locked out of my account. I first tried resetting my password, and was then met with an email claiming my account was locked with no additional information.
I am trying to understand how I can either unlock my account, or transfer my existing app to a new account, so that I do not have to bother my users with downloading a new app. Additionally, I would like some help in understanding how I can safeguard myself from this issue in the future, especially given this would not be fun if my app were published.
Could anyone please assist me, provide me with any advice, or point me to a place where I could get support? I spent 25 minutes on the phone with apple support, and was treated excellently as I've come to expect of Apple, but unfortunately was not given any help as the support did not have additional information. I'm hoping I'm asking in the right place, and can get some help!
Thanks in advance,
Fritz

Gostaria de propor a criação de um Modo de Bateria Crítica Inteligente para impedir desligamentos abruptos quando o iPhone atinge 1% de bateria.
O objetivo principal é evitar perda de dados, especialmente em tarefas importantes ou documentos não salvos.
✔️ Funcionamento sugerido:
• Quando o iPhone atinge 1% de bateria, o sistema ativa automaticamente um modo de energia ultrarreduzida, mantendo o aparelho ligado por alguns segundos ou minutos extras.
• Esse modo poderia:
• suspender animações;
• reduzir brilho ao mínimo;
• pausar atualizações em segundo plano;
• congelar aplicativos não essenciais;
• priorizar salvamento automático de arquivos, notas, gravações e mensagens.
✔️ Benefícios:
1. Evita a sensação de desligamento inesperado.
2. Reduz o risco de perda de dados importantes.
3. Melhora a segurança e experiência do usuário.
4. Prolonga a vida útil da bateria, reduzindo ciclos críticos.
✔️ Considerações:
O objetivo não é estender artificialmente a autonomia, mas sim criar uma janela de proteção que permita ao sistema salvar dados e fazer desligamento programado, evitando danos e frustração.

I have been a galaxy user my whole life, I just switched over to IPhone, because of how much i see the users enjoy it. With that’s said, I make journal entries often in my phone, I would like to know if it is protected from AI usage, as these are my personal thoughts and feelings?
Hi everyone,
I’m developing an app for managing internet services, which includes features like controlling modems, paying internet bills, purchasing internet packages, buying cameras, subscribing to FSafety (modem management), UltraFast (boosting internet speed for gaming), and selling health-related devices like blood glucose monitors, as well as other telecom-related products.
I have some questions about Apple’s review process and payment policies:
Do features like paying internet bills, buying internet packages, purchasing cameras, subscribing to FSafety and UltraFast violate any of Apple’s policies (App Store Review Guidelines)?
If my app doesn’t violate any policies, how would Apple charge for these transactions, and what is the fee structure?
If I use an external payment gateway (not Apple’s) for transactions like paying bills or buying products, would I need to provide additional documentation for my app to be approved on the App Store?
What is the review process for apps with external payment features? Is there anything special I need to do when submitting the app to the App Store?
I would appreciate any insights from those who have experience with developing apps that include payment functionality.
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone,
I purchased an Apple Developer Program membership about three days ago. The payment has already been successfully charged to my bank account, but my account is still showing the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership.”
I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information since completing the purchase.
I’m curious if others have experienced a similar delay recently, and how long it took before your developer account was fully activated.
Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
