Noob Software has been working on a new programming language designed primarily for mac development, with a syntax similar to PHP and some aspects from JavaScript. To demonstrate this language i've released the code for one of my apps "Noob Music"
https://github.com/noobsoftware/NoobMusic3
i would like to hear if people are interested in using this programming language. I think there are many benefits to the high level syntax and high level thinking, and not having to define datatypes and such.
The language also supports multithreading using the "async" keyword prefixed in front of the function keyword, like you would do in JavaScript only with multithreading instead of interleaved processing.
Pushing to array is threadsafe and some other functinonality as well and it is recommended to use a new class instance within each async function.
I have relied heavily on using webviews for UI so there is a layout engine i have developed for native view elements in Cocoa which at this point ar primarily WebViews. The webviews can define a callback function to receive messages from JavaScript, so combining these methods you get a full fledged "web" development feeling for mac development, with HTML+CSS+JavaScript and NoobScript

I have an iPhone 12 mini and I am currently using it as a modem for my router. Previously it was running iOS 14, but the DHCP on iOS 14 doesn't work and Apple didn't fix it until iOS 15. Recently I upgraded the system to iOS 18.4 to get DHCP back, but I got a bigger problem. The iPhone will restart itself after 3 days, and then I just lost internet connection. The hotspot will not be turned on until I climbed on my bookshelf to unlock my phone.
After I googled it, I found that it is a feature that Apple introduced in iOS 18.1. While I couldn't find any setting to turn it off. If this cannot be controlled by the user, then it is anyway a BUG than a feature.
Hey everyone,
We're looking for the best way to handle App Store Server Notifications in our development setup and would appreciate some guidance.
Our Setup:
We use a single App Store Connect account for development, which supports multiple environments (e.g., staging1, staging2). Our production app lives in a separate account, so that's not an issue.
The Challenge:
We have only one configurable sandbox notification URL. This makes it difficult to route notifications to the correct development server (staging1 vs. staging2 vs development) when a sandbox event occurs.
We're considering using a proxy server to catch all notifications and then forward them to the appropriate environment. However, we're not sure how to determine the correct destination.
Our Questions:
What's the recommended approach for managing a single sandbox notification URL across multiple development environments?
If a proxy is the best method, which parameter in the responseBodyV2 payload should we use to route the notification? How can we differentiate between our various dev environments?
Is it possible to add custom properties to the App Store Server Notification V2 body to facilitate routing?
Any advice or best practices you've implemented would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

An error occurred while checking for a software update after the iOS 26 update. Is anyone else facing a similar issue?

So here is my issue regarding iOS 26 Beta 3.
I was playing a game called BangBang Survivor, while inside the game there is an option to make the game ad free with a monthly subscription. Somehow i found that it doesnt work anymore on Beta 3. When I clicked renew subcription, it shows “This Purchase has already been bought. It will restored for free” and I found that buying diamonds actually working, except those ad free subscription was not working. I contacted game dev for this issue, they cant seems to solve anything and asked me to contact Apple Support. But Apple Support doesnt solve the issue as well and asked me to contact the game dev. I guess i will need to wait for next update to see whether this issue will finally solve or not.

I'm trying to create an Apple account for my client, and I'm getting this error "We can't create your account at this time." I've tried with two different email addresses and always get the same error. What could it be?

We are currently listening to App Store Server Notifications V2 and have encountered an issue with notification ordering.
Specifically, there are instances where Apple sends the DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS notification before the INITIAL_BUY notification. This leads to a situation where we are unable to process the cancellation of a transaction that is unknown to us at the time of the renewal status change.
Could you please clarify why this occurs? If this is a bug, could you kindly address it and implement a fix?
Below, I have included examples that illustrate the issue. These examples I obtained using the Notification History API, which may help in troubleshooting.
bundleId: com.picsart.studio
case 1:
originalTransactionId 350002410***633
DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS - ‘2025-03-05T00:47:05.900Z’
INITIAL_BUY - ‘2025-03-05T00:47:40.728Z’
case 2:
originalTransactionId 420002297***345
DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS - ‘2025-03-03T11:43:54.006Z’
INITIAL_BUY - ‘2025-03-03T11:43:56.437Z’
case 3:
originalTransactionId 150002224***082
DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS - ‘2025-03-02T05:15:36.610Z’
INITIAL_BUY - ‘2025-03-02T05:15:52.666Z’

After doing a software update I can only view iMessages older than 12hrs (from a single contact) if the other person replies to and older message. Every time I leave the Massages app and go back in the issue occurs again.
I am using an iPad Pro 11” on iOS 26 dev beta. I try to open 12+ apps and they don’t work. I have tried force restarting the device and checking settings and everything seems to be in order.
Hello,
I have a question regarding the ethernet-over-USB-C stack within iOS/iPadOS.
It seems that when manually assigning an IP on this interface within iOS, the IP is stored. Therefore, when disconnecting (the USB-C cable) and reconnecting to another device for a subsequent ethernet connection, the iOS device will always default to the previously assigned IP address (obviously, this isn't the case if the other end is a DHCP server).
So, within the iPhone's Ethernet-over-USB-C driver, I was curious if iOS just keeps the assignment based on the MAC of the local USB-C interface, or is stored information tied to some other identifier? Is there a way to override this behavior?
Thank you
How long was it between putting your first app on the App Store (that had a paid component to it like IAPs) and getting your first sale? I'm working on an app at the moment that I plan on putting up for a small one time fee. I'm curious to know what people's different experiences were with this.
What was your app and how did it go?
Is there some public git repo hosting "https://developer.apple.com/documentation"?

I have more than five tabs in a TabView, and on some screens, I'm seeing a navigation bar with the title "More". I understand that this is the default behavior of TabView when there are more than five tabs—iOS automatically creates a "More" screen.
I've set navigationBarHidden = true throughout my app, but the navigation bar still appears on some screens within the "More" section. Is there another way to hide the moreNavigationController or completely remove the navigation bar from the "More" screen?
Frequently, when transferring large files using AirDrop, it will suddenly fail mid-transfer. Looking into the macOS logs reveals the fault:

As the title states, and it’s extremely frustrating. The floating bar that now appears above the keyboard is cool compared to the built in bar, though it seems to only work when it feels like it. Also the screen seems to have a haze around it, sometimes I cannot read whats needed because of it being blurred and it won’t allow me to navigate to certain things due to the haze being there too.
Any way of rolling back my update and going back to my previous iOS?
My imessage has been acting up for 1 month now. It fails to activate my phone number and prefers my email. This is a beta issue Apple support has told me and it needs fixing asap.

This is my first problem and my first question hopefully somebody can help or give me some suggestions. I was in the developr beta of IOS 26 build(235260n) for a while I haven't updated it since the new beat has came out, beta 3. I have been trying to update requested, after about 20 seconds it goes away but does not start the download the update. The problem also begins to download something into the system beta goes from 22.85 GB to 33.78 GB. It just holds the update but doesn't;t update the phone. I have tried power cycling the device and everytime I do that it just resets the system data and allows up to try the update again. Unsure what to do and don't know if I would need to wait for the public beta for IOS26 to change anything on the device. Please let me know if you guys have any more suggestions what should be the next step. I also was unsure if I should backup the device and reinstall it to make sure that its not something with the conncetion.

Dear team,
I am reaching out to inquire about potential daily usage limits for the CoreLocation geocoding services.
While I understand that there is a known limit of approximately 50 requests per minute, I have received information suggesting there may also be a daily cap of 25,000 requests.
Could you please confirm whether such a daily limit exists?
Additionally, I would appreciate any recommendations you might have for increasing the allowable number of daily geocoding requests, if possible.
Thank you in advance for your support.

Hi everyone,
We're hoping someone here can help us out.
We've run into a consistent issue when trying to enroll a new Apple Developer account as an organisation using our DUNS number. Here's what we've experienced:
Individual enrollment through the Developer app works perfectly with a new Apple ID.
However, when using an existing Apple ID and selecting organization enrollment, the process gets stuck:
The payment button is greyed out in the Developer app.
We're then locked out of enrolling through the app entirely.
4. When trying to complete the enrollment via the Developer website, there’s no valid payment method available (e.g., VISA option missing CVV field), and any attempts to proceed just loop without success.
We're essentially stuck in a limbo state where we can’t proceed.
We’ve gone through all the support channels:
The automated assistant (Gaby) is unable to resolve the issue or understand the full context.
Live chat support for both individual and business accounts told us they can’t assist and referred us back to the developer support system—which leads us back to square one.
All members of our team were able to enroll individually without issue, but organisation enrollment consistently failed.
Business support and Commercial support (spoken to supervisors) are unable to assist. They really tried and made an effort.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to get in touch with a real person at Apple who can actually resolve this? What are our next steps?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
