I used spotlight search for almost everything I do through cmd+space. However ever since i updated my laptop to MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1, the spotlight search won't give me app results:
for example i type "flux" and will get just web-based results, not the app. I tried going into the spotlight settings and only enabling applications to be searched for results and got nothing. I tried the same with the Notes app, i get the same result, i get some notes i wrote as result but not the actual app.
It doesn't happen on all apps for example Brave or Spotify work.

There appears to be a bug or a hidden feature where after sending a message in Messages and you hover over or touch near the back button in the top left, voice memo activates and starts recording. This is an unexpected behavior and it has been an issue going back several iOS releases to the current release. This has happened on various phone models, so it isn't limited to a specific model.
In addition, (and yes, this does add a second bug/issue) there is a hidden feature where touching in the top left of a message thread, above the back button, causes the focus of the message thread to jump back to some texts/messages from an earlier time. This is unexpected and seems like it should be addressed.
I want the wkwebview to revert to its previous state when I restart it.
I can't use the app because I haven't received any email and I don't know what the invitation code is.
Will I receive it at some point or how can I receive it?
Hello,

Sometimes, when I close the lid using the MacOs version Sequoia 15.2, with the configuration to require a password for 5 seconds, the system does not ask for the password as expected.
This happens sometimes even though nothing preventing the system from sleeping when you close and open the lid, but it still seems like a security concern.
Is there some known issue related to this problem or a way to avoid it?

I have a flutter application with Firebase token and it is working in my local as expected I loaded my application to Appstore but it is not working, can anyone help me for fix the issue.
Thank you
I have an old application. It worked at one time. Due to changes in the user environment, it is now possible to download applications from the AppStore. I built the app and sent it for review. And I received a report that my app crashed at startup. I tried to reproduce the fall for myself, but it didn't work out. In the crash log, I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the app. Please help me and tell me what I should look for in the log or in the application.
The crash location (which I found in the log):
_UIPathLazyImageAsset imageWithConfiguration
cl-1.crash
cl-1-n.crash

I attempted to reset the Watch SE, which is currently running 10.6.1 and enrolled in Beta updates. My iPhone is updated to 18.2, but the Watch app isn't showing any available updates.
Hi everyone,
Our Apple Developer account (ID/Email: [*****]) was suddenly disabled, showing "Terminated" status in the backend, but we received no violation notice via email. Current issues:
Context:
Last operation before termination: "App submission"
No warning emails or policy violation details received (checked spam folder)
Attempted Solutions:
Submitted appeal via Developer Support Page, no response yet
Reviewed all apps against 《App Store Review Guidelines》, no obvious violations found
Questions:
Are there alternative ways to contact Apple support directly?
What are common causes for such terminations (e.g., payment issues, account association risks)?
Should we create a new account, or is reinstatement possible?
Note: Sensitive details redacted. Will provide more info if needed. Thanks for any advice!

Another developer tried to start a screen-sharing session with me on my M1 MacBook Air this morning (Sequoia 15.3). He reported however that another session was already under way on my machine. I looked in System Settings and found that the "Screen Sharing" setting was grayed out, with the notation that "This service is currently being controlled by the Remote Management service". Access to the service is disabled however, and I have no way of turning it off.
It's possible that the person who tried to help me got this session started, and that it then got aborted in some irregular way, but he see no indication of that and says there is no connection between us as seen from his end. This makes me nervous security-wise. Is there some way I can turn this off and ensure that I am not being screen-shared against my will, as it were?
TIA,
Howard

Apple has a massive opportunity to improve iOS for business users with ARM (Apple Relationship Manager)—a built-in tool that allows professionals to log, summarize, and integrate calls & messages into CRM workflows.
Many professionals (salespeople, executives, entrepreneurs) use iPhones for business, but there’s no easy way to track conversations, categorize interactions, or integrate messages with a CRM.
ARM would solve this by allowing:
✅ AI-powered call summaries (users get a suggested summary after each call, which can be reviewed and tagged).
✅ iMessage/SMS tagging (users can hold down messages to assign a sentiment or create a follow-up).
✅ CRM Integration (ARM logs could sync with HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.).
How ARM Would Work:
• Users could tap an “ARM Accept” (green accept button with the ARM logo instead of white phone symbol) button before a call to activate AI-powered summarization.
• After the call, users would review/edit the summary and log a sentiment (e.g., “Needs Follow-Up”).
• In iMessage, users could long-press messages to summarize conversations and tag key interactions for both blue and green messages.
• ARM would keep everything on-device, ensuring privacy and security.
Since Apple Intelligence is already introducing AI-powered features, ARM could make iPhones the ultimate business communication tool while keeping everything private and secure.
If you also want Apple to build this, submit feedback at Apple Feedback and comment here to show support!

I am a startup founder based in India. Recently the iOS developer we were working with left the company in some what acrimonious circumstances.
Post his departure from the company, he has made it clear that he will try to cause damage to our iOS app to the extent that it starts to crash.
Even though we have removed his access, as a non tech founder, I am not sure what ways he can edit or hamper our iOS app and what measures we can take to protect the same.
Please advise us with steps for us to secure our code and ensure no one can edit the same or hamper our iOS app on the app store.
Thank you
Connection is getting broken while moving from background to foreground in latest iOS 18.3.is there any change regarding background activity?
