Automix in Apple Music is inoperative in iPadOS 27 Beta 1 and later version on iPad Pro (M4)
After updating 13-inch iPad Pro (M4, 1TB, cellular model) to iPadOS 27 Beta 1 and later version, the automix mode in the Music app has stopped working. I have confirmed this issue is unrelated to my subscription status. I tried toggling the Song Transition option back on in Settings and switching to the Crossfade mode, but the problem persists—the Song Transition button inside the Music app remains grayed out and unavailable.

YouTube music isn't playing in the background as it should be; it’s playing on screen even once you’ve paid for the subscription. The app just floats in the background of whats on your active phone screen.

Guideline 4.3(b) - Design - SpamApp rejected under 4.3(b) after following all guidance from Meet with Apple appointment — need specific direction
I built a relationship and dating app called Kolly — something that genuinely didn't exist in this form on the App Store. It includes date ideas, compatibility quizzes, games, an AI companion, and a personal Love CV. Astrology is part of it because astrology is a natural part of modern dating culture — but this is a relationship app, not an astrology app. After my first rejection under 4.3(b), I attended a Meet with Apple appointment. I was explicitly told: "astrology being present is not the problem — being an astrology app is the problem." I was advised to reposition as a relationship app and add more relationship features. I did exactly that. I resubmitted. Same copy-pasted rejection email. No new feedback. My replies go unanswered. I am forced to keep resubmitting blindly because I have no other option. I followed every instruction I was given and I still have no clear path to approval. I am a small independent developer. I have investors waiting. I have spent months and significant money on this. The process feels completely opaque — I can't help but wonder if larger companies with connections get a different experience. Has anyone successfully resolved a 4.3(b) rejection for an app that includes astrology as one feature among many? What actually worked?

iOS 27 Beta 4 restore
When trying to restore iOS 27 Beta 4 to my iPhone, I get the error "To restore your iPhone with iOS 27.0, you need to install the latest version of iTunes." I've examined the BuildManifest.plist file which has the below MobileDeviceMinVersion 1853 but my PC has 1827 which I assume is why it's failing. I've checked both MS Store and the web and I have the latest iTunes installed. When will Apple be releasing a version that supports iOS 27 beta 4 so I can restore it to my iPhone.

Would a lightweight peer-testing workflow be useful for iOS developers?
I’m exploring a small peer-testing workflow for developers who ship their own iOS apps. The idea is simple: one developer spends 10–20 minutes using another developer’s public App Store app, then records concrete observations—what they expected, where they hesitated, and what felt confusing. The first version would use GitHub Issues for matching and feedback. No source code, private builds, ratings, or review exchange. No separate Co-op account or backend. I’m considering a small pilot of up to ten developers, joining in small waves. I’m mainly trying to understand whether this would be useful in practice or feel too cumbersome. For people who have shipped iOS apps: Would this kind of feedback be valuable? Would GitHub Issues feel like a reasonable workflow? What would you want to see before sharing a public App Store link? The current workflow is documented here: https://github.com/YizeSun/co-op

Need Support - iPhone SE (3rd gen) Screen Dead Zone on Left Side
My iPhone SE (3rd generation) keeps developing a dead zone on the left side of the screen. It resolves itself after a restart, but comes back shortly after. It started when I was beta testing iOS 27 Beta 1, but I've since tried both updating to Beta 2, and downgrading back down to iOS 26. The problem persisted on all three versions. I currently have it on iOS 26.5.2. I did have a screen protector on it, but it started a while after I had it applied. I tried removing it to see if that would fix it, but it didn't. I have a case on the phone and have never dropped it or spilled anything on it, I am very careful with it, and only got it a couple weeks ago. Has anyone else had this problem? How can I fix it? Any help is appreciated!

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth intermittently turn off on iOS 27 Beta 1
I am experiencing random Wi-Fi and Bluetooth disconnections while using iOS 27. Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth disconnect unexpectedly, then reconnect automatically a few seconds later. I have seen many similar reports on Reddit, so this does not seem to be an isolated issue. I have already submitted a report through Feedback Assistant with the feedback ID FB23121586. I hope this issue can be fixed soon, because it is really stressful when playing online games on my iPhone and worrying that the connection might suddenly drop. :(

GarageBand bug (I think)
Just sharing a bug that exists in GarageBand 10.4.14 in the Beta MacOS 27.0. I believe it's been there even before 27.0 and started with the current GB version. I use the program for an audio podcast and record my audio in one region and edit it I that region. When editing a section of a region (ie: trimming), the APP will delete the section immediately following it. The only way to get it back is to "undo" the trimming. One workaround I have discovered is to drag that segment to another region, edit it there, and then drag it back. Anyone else having this issue? Any resolution? (laptop: Macbook AIR M4, 24G memory)

Hello everyone, I am experiencing a similar issue to the one reported by aarshps: "I hope someone has encountered this specific pattern and resolved it, or can point me in the right direction to escalate the issue." In my case, my iOS Apple Developer account (Case ID: 102929769930) has been pending for 40 days. I have met all of Apple's requirements, but support staff stated they could not verify my subscription or enrollment. The only potential detail on my end is that the payment was made using my son's credit card (Felipe Silva Ferraz), while the developer account was registered under my own name (Ademir Gomes Ferraz). I have sent multiple emails through the support portal, and my account still hasn't been approved. If anyone has faced this pattern or knows how to properly escalate it, please let me know.

Individual enrolment stuck at "ID Verification Rejected" — no detail surfaced, support silent past SLA
Hi all, Hoping someone has hit and resolved this exact pattern, or can point me to the right escalation path. I'm trying to enrol in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual (Bengaluru, India). The Apple Developer iOS app shows "ID Verification Rejected" under the Apple Developer Program status — but with no specific reason and no retry button. The app does not surface what was actually wrong with the verification. What I have already done: Confirmed my Apple Account name ("Adarsh P S") exactly matches my Passport and PAN card (no extra spaces, correct initials). Opened Developer Support case #102900128848 — the agent replied once on 2026-05-28 asking for a screenshot, which I provided the same day. No follow-up in 3+ business days. Filed a parallel case #102905434551 on 2026-06-02 explicitly referencing the first as escalation, not a duplicate. Apple ID has 2FA enabled, trusted device active, billing address on file. Questions for anyone who has gotten past this: Did the verification reset come from support, or did re-attempting from the app after some delay work on its own? For Indian developers — which ID type was finally accepted (Passport vs PAN)? I understand Aadhaar is not accepted per UIDAI restriction. Is there a specific support topic / contact path that routes to the identity-verification team faster than "Membership and Account → Program Enrolment → Email"? Any pointers appreciated — my iOS 26 / SwiftUI app is built, tested, CI-green, and waiting only on enrolment. Thanks, Adarsh P S

30 fps system UI animations on Base M-series Macs in macOS 27 beta
Hi, there's a bug in macOS 27 beta (carried over from 26) that causes base (non-Pro/Max/Ultra) M-series Macs to render certain UI animations, like Finder Quick Look and system dialog pop-ups (Restart, Shut Down, etc.), at ~30 fps unless screen recording is active. Screen recording immediately restores 60 fps across the board. The Quick Look animation is also unaffected by the bug when viewing a video file. I've reproduced the bug on multiple base M4, M5 and A18 Pro Macs in Apple Stores. Not reproducible on Pro/Max/Ultra variants. I filed a bug report in April against macOS 26 and a few weeks ago against 27. I'd very much appreciate if any of you could do so as well if it affects your machines. How to reproduce: Open Finder on any base (non-Pro/Max/Ultra) M-series Mac Press Space on any non-video file Observe ~30 fps animation Start any screen recording Repeat steps 1 and 2 Observe fluid animation Thank you in advance for your help.

What if you have recharged a wrong number by mistake? Apple
If you accidentally recharge a wrong number, here are the steps you can take: Contact Customer Support: Reach out to the service provider’s customer support: 0754 393 4139) immediately. Provide them with the details of the transaction, including the wrong number and the amount charged. Provide Transaction Details: Have your transaction receipt or confirmation number ready. This will help the support team locate your transaction more efficiently. Request a Refund: Ask if a refund or transfer of the recharge amount to the correct number is possible. Policies vary by provider, so it's important to inquire.

iPhone 16 — Wi‑Fi and 5G show as connected, but there is no internet after iOS 27 Beta 4
Hi everyone, Since updating my iPhone 16 to iOS 27 Beta 4, I’ve had a serious connectivity issue. Both Wi‑Fi and 5G/4G appear connected, but Safari, the App Store, and every other app fail to load anything. Occasionally the connection works briefly, then stops again. I have already tried restarting the iPhone, toggling Airplane Mode and cellular data, and resetting network settings, but the issue remains. Has anyone else experienced the same problem on an iPhone 16 with iOS 27 Beta 4, or found a workaround? I’m considering restoring the phone to the public/stable release. Similar Wi‑Fi and cellular-data issues have been reported by other iOS 27 beta users.

Introducing My Independent App Portfolio — Games, Education and Utilities
Hello Apple Developer Community, My name is Chris, and I’m an independent developer building games, educational tools, and utility apps for Apple platforms. I’d like to share some of the applications I have released so far: ADVENT Text Game for Mac A retro-inspired text adventure designed specifically for macOS. View on the App Store ADVENT Text Game for iPhone and iPad Explore mysterious caves, discover hidden passages, collect treasures, and solve puzzles in a classic-inspired text adventure. View on the App Store iFrappe View on the App Store China Driving Exam Trainer A study and practice application for learners preparing for the Chinese driving licence theory examination. View on the App Store Ur: The Royal Game A digital interpretation of the ancient Royal Game of Ur. View on the App Store I’m also currently developing Steel Maze, a retro maze-based tank battle game for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Each project has helped me explore different parts of Apple development, including SwiftUI, SpriteKit, Mac Catalyst, responsive layouts, Game Center, gameplay design, and App Store distribution. I would be happy to receive feedback from other developers and connect with people working on similar independent projects. You can find my current app portfolio here: CK My Apps Thank you for taking a look!

Intune pushes the IOS DDM policy (to push version 18.7.8 to devices using 17.X, with a set deadline) to iOS devices using cellular networks
Intune pushes the IOS DDM policy (to push version 18.7.8 to devices using 17.X, with a set deadline) to iOS devices using cellular networks. However, the update fails to succeed. A pop-up window appears indicating "Download and Install", and clicking on "Download and Install" shows no progress bar. But if the device enables Wi-Fi, a progress bar will appear for the download and installation process. I would like to confirm whether there are any restrictions on DDM pushing system upgrades to devices currently using cellular networks.
