Web Push Provisioning
I am attempting to add credit cards to Apple Wallet using Web Push Provisioning through our web application and have not been able to find any documentation or integration guide for this. Apple has provided me with In-App provisioning documentation, but this is geared toward mobile development which we are not doing. Does anyone have experience setting up Web Push Provisioning for Apple Wallet that can point me in the right direction for documentation/integration guides?

Account Pending Termination Notice
Around October 17, our app was removed from the App Store, and we were later informed that our developer account would be terminated within 30 days. This was an unexpected and shocking notice for us. After carefully reviewing Apple’s Developer Guidelines, we conducted a thorough internal investigation and confirmed that we did, in fact, violate certain policies. However, we are unsure whether the Apple Review Team could give us an opportunity to make corrections—otherwise, our new apps will not be able to launch on the App Store in the future. The stated reason for our account termination was: “You provided fraudulent and/or false account information, documentation, or otherwise falsely represented yourself or your submitted app to Apple either during the account enrollment process or after the account was created.” After reviewing this issue, we identified two foolish and critical mistakes on our part: We registered our developer account using our Mainland China company, but used a Hong Kong company’s bank account for payments. (Both companies are under the same management, and we have submitted supporting documentation during our appeal.) Our official website, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service also displayed the name of our Hong Kong company instead of the Mainland China entity used for registration. Despite these mistakes, we have continued to support our users through email and our Discord community, resolving most issues within 24 hours. 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. We will promptly register a new Hong Kong Apple Developer Account, and once our app is reinstated, we will migrate all relevant information to that new account to ensure full compliance moving forward.

Beta 26.1
Since updating all my devices, TV, iPhone, iPad, and possibly HomePods and watch nothing works as it should. The worst of all is the inability to download any app from the App Store. Everything is playing up. It’s iOS nightmare. Can’t wait for the next official iOS software update!

[iOS 26] CLHeading's magneticHeading and trueHeading return travel direction instead of device orientation when user is in motion
Problem Description I am using CLLocationManager to obtain the device's compass heading (direction), and I have encountered an abnormal behavior: When the user is stationary: After calling startUpdatingHeading(), the CLHeading object returned in the locationManager(_:didUpdateHeading:) callback correctly reflects the device’s actual physical orientation (i.e., the direction the top of the device is pointing) in terms of magnetic north / true north, via the magneticHeading and trueHeading properties. When I rotate the device, the heading values change accordingly — this is the expected behavior. But when the user is in motion (e.g., driving a car): Even if I rotate the device, the values of magneticHeading and trueHeading no longer reflect the device’s actual orientation. Instead, they consistently return what appears to be the user's or vehicle's travel direction (forward direction). In other words, the compass behaves as if it is reporting the direction of motion rather than the device’s actual facing direction. Only after the user has completely stopped moving, does rotating the device again result in magneticHeading and trueHeading reflecting the actual device orientation as expected. However, on another device running iOS 16 (iPhone XR), this behavior does not occur — everything works normally. Expected Behavior I expect that regardless of whether the user is moving or not, the CLHeading values returned by CLLocationManager should always represent the physical orientation of the device itself (i.e., which direction the top of the device is pointing), as a standard compass should. Actual Behavior User is stationary, rotating the device: magneticHeading / trueHeading change properly according to the device’s actual orientation User is in motion (e.g., driving):magneticHeading / trueHeading remain fixed to the direction of motion (travel direction), and do not change when the device is rotated User stops moving, then rotates the device:Compass behaves normally again, reflecting the actual device orientation Environment Information iOS Version: iOS 26.0.1 Device Models: iPhone 15 Pro / iPhone 17 Pro Xcode Version: Xcode 26.0.1 Language: Objective-C Questions Is this a known issue in iOS? Are there any related radars or official documentation about it? Have other developers encountered similar issues, especially where CLHeading behaves incorrectly when the user is in motion? Do I need to set any specific parameters in CLLocationManager (such as headingOrientation) to resolve or work around this issue? 🙏 Thank you for your help — any insights, experiences, or official feedback regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated!

Account Holder LOCKED OUT - NO SUPPORT
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. We think it may have been an invalid password entered that triggered this. I need to either unlock that Apple ID or transfer the Account Holder role so we can manage our company's business apps. I have reached out to Apple Developer Support, but they only sent the link to the reset link that I told them I already tried. The unlock page just tells me it's locked. No other recourse. Our company requires the app to operate. We have another admin access through another Apple ID. but to transfer the Account Holder role, it can only be initiated by the current Account Holder, which is impossible at this point. If anyone has encountered a similar issue or knows a more efficient route to escalate, I’d be extremely grateful for your insights.

System Data Occupying Half of My Storage
If Apple truly requires this much space for the system, I honestly don’t see the point of having a 256GB device. I have no way of knowing what exactly is included in “System Data,” and I cannot modify or manage it. This is extremely frustrating and confusing for users. Can someone explain why this is necessary?

How to change the copyright of my app
Hi, I'm here hoping for some help or advice in terms of a critical situation I'm currently facing. I want to change the copyright of an app, which was my previous app but now transferred to another company. In the Apple developer panel, is there anywhere that can change the copyright? Here is a quick summary of the app development, Software Vendor 1 developed the app, then transferred to Software Vendor 2, eventually the Client user(only paid for the app but don't have developer account) can use it. Now, I'm the Software Vendor 1 and has transferred the app to Software Vendor 2, but the copyright is still Software Vendor 1; and I want to ask Vendor 2 change the copyright to Client user directly as the Client user has bought the app. I’ve contacted Apple Support multiple times through mails. They just tell me to ask the Account Holder/Admin of the organization account that now owned the app to contact them in order to receive support. Then, I've asked Software Vendor 2 to contact Apple support, but have no response from Apple support after 1 week. My Case number is: 102708379460 This case is quite urgent for me, if anyone from the App Support team sees this post, or if any developers have experienced a similar situation and can offer advice, we would be truly grateful. Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Xcode: Perform Single-object Prelink in xcodebuild
I am using Xcode to compile a C++ component, and I have successfully performed prelinking using "Perform Single-object Prelink" in Xcode. However, I am unsure if there is a similar parameter in xcodebuild that can achieve prelink. Is this workable, or is there any way to make it could be done?

USDZ Gaussian Splat shaders
It is now possible to save the incredibly realistic Gaussian splat format in USDZ file format. Yet iOS cannot display them. This is a massive gap in content flexibility and use case for users of iOS. Apple’s quick look would be a perfect fit for AR and model view of digital twins of products and buildings etc, enabling millions of users to have extended user experiences and designers extended platforms to display gaussian splats. Android can already display Gaussian splats in AR, it’s crazy that apple should restrict this format either from the website viewers, or by linked usdz file. I hope the Apple dev team will consider expanding this functionality to hugely improve user experiences, and allow a global platform to developers and marketplaces to create better digital twins, and product marketplaces.

Battery Usage Information
I am monitoring the battery usage of an app when it is running in the background and foreground. The app uses "Always" location permission, and we're observing 15 hours of background usage and 10 minutes of on-screen usage. The battery usage for our app is showing 44%, while other apps are showing around 14% and so on, representing the cumulative battery percentage. Based on this information, is it normal usage or my app is consuming more battery

Missing screenshots in iMessage (17 Pro Max & iOS 25.1 betas)
I've been trying to search for this particular issue, but what I've been finding doesn't seem to fit exactly what I'm experiencing, hence my post here. I can send and receive normal photos (ones that were taken with the camera) with no issue, however, screenshots do not appear when I receive them (or if I send one, the recipient also does not see them). They appear as a blank message "bubble" and when I click on it, the screenshot appears. Attached is a screenshot of what it looks like in iMessage. I'm curious if this is a bug, or do I simply have some settings incorrect? I'm on the iOS 25.1 beta 3, but this has been happening since iOS 25 launched, and I have a 17 Pro Max.
