Unresolved Apple Developer Program Enrollment Issue
Hello everyone, I am facing a persistent and unacceptable issue with my individual enrollment in the Apple Developer Program that has been ongoing for nearly three months. Despite multiple attempts to communicate with Developer Support, I am continuously receiving the exact same generic statement: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment... couldn't be completed," with no clear explanation or actionable steps provided. This lack of genuine assistance and transparency is deeply frustrating and prevents me from publishing my application. Key Details of the Situation: Apple ID Region: Türkiye Current Residence and Address: United Kingdom (UK) Identity Verification: I used my Turkish passport along with my UK residential address. Enrollment Status/Error: After submission, I received the "Contact us to continue your enrollment" prompt. Case Number: 102720548696 Support Experience: The case has been handled by multiple support staff (Migeylis, Alex), all of whom have provided identical, non-specific template responses, failing to address the core problem. It appears the conflict between my Apple ID region (Türkiye) and my UK physical address/Turkish passport documentation is the likely cause. I am seeking clarification on whether this is a known issue for developers with mixed international details and what concrete steps are required to resolve this ambiguity. Has anyone in the community experienced a similar issue? If so, what was the path to resolution? I urge Apple officials to escalate this matter immediately and provide a specific, helpful, and transparent resolution. Every developer deserves equal and fair treatment in the enrollment process. Thank you in advance for any insights or assistance. Best regards, Onur

How do I get access to the Accessory Setup Kit?
Hi! I would like to experiment with the Accessory Setup Kit, but I am not sure how I can add the required entitlement to my Apple Developer account. I added the following to the plist file: NSAccessorySetupKitSupports WiFi NSAccessorySetupWiFiSSIDPrefix test_ test And the following to the entitlements file: com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit But I am unable to build as my provisioning profile doesn't include "com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit entitlement". On the developer portal, I navigated to “Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles” > “Identifiers” > “”, but I don't see it under "Capabilities" or "App services", nor under requests. How do I configure my profile so that I am able to make use of this kit?

How to read disk encryption value if the application is Sandboxed
Am developing an application that creates custom VPN. I have enabled Sandbox properties. VPN will be granted based upon the device posture. Posture includes reading the disk encryption value, secureboot and Firewall values. Application just tries to fetch the values to provides its posture. Since the application is sandboxed, it is getting denied to read the above mentioned values. How to achieve this with Sandboxed enabled?

Nonprofit Enrollment 28 Days in "Processing" After Continuing - UH4UT85YS3
I'm looking for advice or anyone who's experienced similar delays with nonprofit developer account enrollments. Timeline: In mid-September, we had some initial email validation issues during our nonprofit organization enrollment. Senior Advisor Kevin (case 102691832489) resolved those issues and cleared us to continue enrollment on September 16-17. We continued immediately on September 17th, and our status changed to "Your enrollment is being processed" with enrollment ID UH4UT85YS3. It's now been 28 days with no status changes, no requests for additional information, and no timeline. Follow-up attempts: I've called support three times (Sept 19, 26, and Oct 7). Each time I was told the application is "with a separate department they can't contact." They created additional cases but couldn't provide any updates or access to the reviewing team. Questions for the community: Is 28 days normal for nonprofit enrollment processing after continuing? Has anyone found a way to get status updates when regular support can't access the reviewing team? Is there a specific escalation path for nonprofit accounts that differs from standard enrollments? We're a 501(c)(3) church launching an app for a capital campaign, so the delay is starting to impact our timeline. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Details: Enrollment ID: UH4UT85YS3 Organization Type: Nonprofit 501(c)(3) Continued enrollment: Sept 17, 2025 Current status: "Your enrollment is being processed" Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Membership renewal
Hello. My developer membership is expired. I cannot renew because the renewal option/button does not appears in any device. A banner tells me: "Any apps you had on the App Store are no longer available for download and you can no longer access membership benefits. If you’d like to renew your membership to reinstate your apps and membership benefits, open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts.If you agreed to the Paid Applications Agreement, you’ll need to agree to it again after renewal in the Agreements, Tax and Banking section of App Store Connect." However, there's no "Renew" to tap or click anywhere in the app nor in the web. Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Terminated Account Remaining Balance Payout
I recently had my developer account terminated. In the final termination email, it said: "If applicable, no further payments will be made to you pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Paid Applications agreement (Schedules 2 and 3 to the ADP Agreement)." I've talked to multiple different developers who also had 3.2f account terminations. Some of them say that they got all their remaining earnings paid out 3-6 months later. Others have said that Apple just kept the money forever. How can I find out if Apple will pay me my account's remaining balance? When I got the original pending termination notice, I was still able to log into App Store Connect to view everything. But immediately after I got the final termination notice email, I could no longer even log into App Store Connect. Could anybody please help me? I'm dependent on the unpaid earnings as a young 21 indie developer. Thank you!! :)

URGENT Update: Org Enrollment H6899PPP9F (AI Prosperity Limited) – 7+ Weeks Pending Activation (JV Sales Proof Attached)
Hi Apple Developer Community and Enrollment Team, Update on organization enrollment H6899PPP9F for AI Prosperity Limited (D-U-N-S [yours]): All initial issues (D-U-N-S, email blocks, docs) resolved weeks ago, with enrollment number issued—yet final activation remains pending over 7 weeks since full submission on 11/27/2025. No ETA or outreach despite prior calls/emails/forum posts. To highlight the stakes: Our app powers a joint venture under the "Freedom Mastery" brand (planners promising QR-app access), with ~+10K customer engagements via physical sales trying to download the app. Key proof (attachments), 500-1000 customers added every day from now on: Amazon Seller Central (Nov 1–Dec 11, 2025): 9,360 units, $323K+ sales, avg $30/order—listings here tease app integration (1K–4K reviews/SKU). Shopify (same period): 9,999+ orders, $63K+ sales, 195K sessions—direct traffic to app waitlist. Redacted JV agreement excerpt: Confirms AI Prosperity Limited's legal authority/control over "Freedom Mastery" branding and sales. Dev entity (AI Prosperity Limited) matches all docs/D-U-N-S, but the JV tie may need verification—happy to provide full details. These buyers (many iOS users) are inquiring daily; delays risk churn/refunds in our habit-tracking space. Request: Escalate to senior review for activation/ETA. Ready for any clarifications. Thanks—excited to launch on Apple! Frederik AI Prosperity Limited Enrollment ID: H6899PPP9F

VoIP Push Notifications Not Delivered in Background/Killed State (Using AppDelegate)
Hello, colleagues. I am reaching out to the community with an issue that is likely quite common. Unfortunately, I have not been able to resolve it independently and would like to confirm if my approach is correct. Core Problem: VoIP push notifications are not delivered to the application when it is in the background or terminated. After reviewing existing discussions on the forum, I concluded that the cause might be related to CallKit not having enough time to register. However, in my case, I am using AppDelegate, and in theory, CallKit registration should occur quickly enough. Nevertheless, the issue persists. Additional Question: I would also like to clarify the possibility of customizing the CallKit interface. Specifically, I am interested in adding custom buttons (for example, to open a door). Please advise if such functionality is supported by CallKit itself, or if a different approach is required for its implementation. Thank you in advance for your time and attention to my questions. For a more detailed analysis, I have attached a fragment of my code below. I hope this will help clarify the situation. Main File @main struct smartappApp: App { @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor private var delegate: AppDelegate @StateObject private var navigationManager = NavigationManager() init() { print("Xct") if !isRunningTests() { DILocator.instance .registerModules([ ConfigModule(), SipModule(), AuthModule(), NetworkModule(), CoreDataModule(), RepositoryModule(), DataUseCaseModule(), SipUseCaseModule() ]) } } func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [AnyHashable: Any], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) { print("Axtest") completionHandler(.newData) } var body: some Scene { App Delegate File class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { private let voipRegistry = PKPushRegistry(queue: .main) private var provider: CXProvider? func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool { setupPushKit() setupCallKit() return true } public func regist(){ setupPushKit() setupCallKit() } private func setupPushKit() { voipRegistry.delegate = self voipRegistry.desiredPushTypes = [.voIP] DispatchQueue.main.async { self.voipRegistry.pushToken(for: .voIP) } } // MARK: - CallKit Setup private func setupCallKit() { let configuration = CXProviderConfiguration(localizedName: "MyApp") configuration.maximumCallGroups = 1 configuration.maximumCallsPerCallGroup = 1 configuration.supportsVideo = true configuration.iconTemplateImageData = UIImage(named: "callIcon")?.pngData() provider = CXProvider(configuration: configuration) provider?.setDelegate(self, queue: .main) } // MARK: - Background Launch Handling func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [AnyHashable: Any], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) { print("Axtest") completionHandler(.newData) } } extension AppDelegate: PKPushRegistryDelegate { func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didUpdate pushCredentials: PKPushCredentials, for type: PKPushType) { APNsImpl().registerToken(token: pushCredentials.token.map { String(format: "%02.2hhx", $0) }.joined()) } func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didReceiveIncomingPushWith payload: PKPushPayload, for type: PKPushType) { guard type == .voIP else { return } print("call kit") let payloadDict = payload.dictionaryPayload let update = CXCallUpdate() update.remoteHandle = CXHandle(type: .phoneNumber, value: "dsfsdfddsf") update.hasVideo = payloadDict["hasVideo"] as? Bool ?? false provider?.reportNewIncomingCall(with: UUID(), update: update, completion: { error in if let error = error { print("Failed to report incoming call: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("Successfully reported incoming call") } }) } }

You do not have required contracts to perform an operation.
Hi, I need help with the error: “You do not have required contracts to perform an operation.” (ID: cc897baf-6551-474b-bbef-3dd5bdf89931) When I try to distribute an archived build from Xcode, App Store Connect shows a banner asking to review a new agreement. But when I click it, I’m redirected to Agreements, Tax and Banking, and there is no agreement to accept — the page is empty. I checked with the team, and none of us can see the agreement. Is it possible that the required agreement is available only to the Account Holder and not visible to Admin or Developer roles? Could you please clarify what exactly this error means and how we can locate the missing agreement? Thanks.

Request: the role access accessing diagnosticSignatures in the REST API
We want to automate getting crash reports from ASC via CI or some other mechanism. Having developers manually check the Xcode Organizer isn't a scalable solution for us. Even with a api key with the App Manager role, we get a 403. https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/diagnosticSignatures?limit=50 requires ADMIN role access which makes it a non starter in our org because of access restrictions. Since developers have access to the crash reports via Xcode in their developer roles, it should make sense for the REST API to expose the same data without ADMIN permissions.
