Switch to Managed Apple Account or stick with personal one
Hi all, first I have to admit that I am not a developer. So bear please with me. I am the guy who tries to find the best solution for our company. At our company we plan to capture our domain in Apple Business. This means that developers that use our domain name as part of their personal Apple Account need to decide, whether they want to migrate their account to a Managed Apple Account (controlled by the company), or rather stick with a personal Apple Account. In this case they would need to change the email-address of that Apple Account to a personal email address. For all the other employees affected by the change, we recommend to stick with personal Apple Accounts. But for developers, I am not so sure if this approach would be the best, or worse, if this would break things (e.g. Testflight, AppStore Connect, and all that). What would you recommend? Any insights would be more than appreciated. Thanks, Oliver

Waiting for Review
Hello everyone, Our app has been stuck in "Waiting for Review" for 7 days now, and I'd like to check if this is expected given current queue times, or if something might be blocking it. App: Charry Up Submission ID: 419195e2-331c-4553-b290-fc06c3a89ea8 Version: 1.0.0 (6) Submitted: August 20, 2026 at 15:54 Current status: Waiting for Review (has not yet moved to "In Review") I've checked App Store Connect and don't see any messages, missing information, or action required on our side. This is our very first submission to the App Store, and the delay is affecting a planned launch. I've also just submitted a request for expedited review given the time-sensitivity. Has anyone experienced something similar recently? Any guidance on next steps would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Unable to create forum posts?
Hi I'm currently trying to create a post within the developer forum. I've tried several times but I keep getting an error with "content not found" after hitting "Post". When I check the browser dev tools I'm getting a http 403 error. My system is: Firefox version 154 running on Linux Mint 22.3. The screenshot below is the error page I get after I tried creating a post regarding Safari, Web Extensions.

Problem with Local Network Access
Hi, I am running macos golden gate beta on my Mac. Some applications have issues accessing the local network, i.e. Windows app (former RDP), Orca Slicer, Bitwarden... The apps can not access the local network. And they don't ask for permission to access the local network. In my previous installations with Macos before Golden Gate these all worked with no problems. When I check the settings in System Settings/Privacy&Security/Local Network: In the summary of the section it says there are 3 (three) apps In the list for Local Network, there are only 2 (two) apps listed. The apps mentioned above never appear in this list I also removed in recovery mode the .plist-files for networkextensions => still the same issue How can I grant access for the applications? Thanks for any help Joerg

App Stuck in Review for 2 Weeks After Resubmission - Seeking Advice
Anyone with the similar experience? Would appreciate the advice: Timeline: Initial submission: ~4 weeks ago First review: Completed after ~2 weeks after we have sent the expedited review request Fixes applied: Completed within 24 hours Resubmission: August 12, 2026 Current status: Still in review - no activity for ~2 weeks We have a planned launch date that's now at risk due to this review delay. The lack of any reviewer interaction on the resubmission is particularly concerning. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated

TestFlight falsely says "must renew membership" (account is fully paid through 2027)
App: AI RunCoach — App ID 6782097197, bundle ID com.airuncoach.app, Team ID 4N3X74Y2LF When adding a new build to our External Testing group, TestFlight shows: "Before you can use TestFlight to distribute beta builds of your app, you must renew your Apple Developer Program membership." Our membership is not expired: the Membership Details page shows renewal date 20 June 2027, auto-renew ON, and the €99 fee already paid. We've also checked Agreements, Tax, and Banking — nothing shows as pending or requiring action anywhere. In the meantime, our app has been stuck in "In Review" status since August 3, and TestFlight installations also seem to be blocked. A request for an expedited review produced no result, and a request for a phone consultation did not lead to any contact either. Did anyone else experience this, and could someone advise on how to contact Apple about this? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Where did the Carrier attribution on an incoming call go with iOS 27 beta?
For iOS 27 Betas 1-5, when there was an incoming phone call, the call screen would display "Identified by XXX Mobile", where XXX is the name of the carrier of the sim. But with beta 6 and now 7, this is no longer the case. Is this an accidental regression bug or intentional removal of the attribution? If so, then why was it present in the earlier betas?

PPS – Play · Pause · Stop | Looking for Spanish-speaking TestFlight testers
Hi everyone! We’re looking for beta testers for PPS – Play · Pause · Stop, a new iPhone app designed to make tracking working hours simple, fast and intuitive. ⚠️ Important: The current beta is available in Spanish only. Please join only if you are comfortable testing an app in Spanish. PPS is designed for people who want to keep an accurate record of their working time and earnings without complicated time-management systems. With PPS you can: • Start, pause, resume and finish a workday • Add and edit workdays manually • Manage split shifts and breaks • Track regular and overtime hours • Configure your usual working schedule • Calculate estimated earnings based on hourly rates • View your work history in a calendar • Mark workdays as paid or pending • View summaries by day, week, month or custom date range • Add notes to individual workdays • Export work reports This is our first external beta, so we’re particularly interested in feedback from people who have never used PPS before. We would especially like to know: • Is the app intuitive without instructions? • Is it obvious how to start and finish a workday? • Are pauses and split shifts easy to understand? • Are the calendar and summaries useful and clear? • Do regular/overtime calculations behave as expected? • Are earnings and paid/pending information understandable? • Is there anything confusing or unnecessarily complicated? • What feature do you think is missing? • Have you found any bugs, crashes or UI problems? Suggestions and criticism are very welcome. We’re interested not only in finding bugs, but also in understanding how PPS feels to someone seeing it for the first time. TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/6vkXy7EU The first testing group is intentionally limited while we collect and evaluate feedback. Thanks for helping us improve PPS!

macOS Golden Gate Beta battery percentage appearance
Hello! First time posting here. As I'm using the fourth macOS Golden Gate public beta now, I'd love to see if there's more people who also think the battery percentage inside the icon looks unreadable. Dear Apple devs, could you please change the size of the battery icon or place the battery percentage outside, how it used to be in the older macOS versions? I don't have the poorest vision, yet it's still quite difficult to see it.

Did you know that you can't make calls on the iPhone 17 Pro Max if you use two eSIMs?
You know that you can install up to 9 eSIMs and activate 2, right? I use two activated eSIMs, but when I turn them both on, it says my location cannot be found. I only get through when I make calls, and I receive very few calls. When I answer a call, one of the two SIMs turns off. My carrier and Apple say they are currently looking into this, but where can I get a response? I am trying to surrender my current phone and watch for repair for the sake of public interest, even if it means sacrificing privacy, but I have no way to do so. What is even more ridiculous is that the paired watch does not match the watch name or the actual watch itself. It looks as if someone else's watch has been paired. The digital crown, gestures, and health sensors are not working. I am just using the watch as a speaker to listen to music. None of the functions work. If Developer Mode were enabled, I could force gestures to work through Accessibility, but Developer Mode won't turn on.
