Using Google Maps in App to determine distance
So far, we have been using Google Maps to determine distance along a certain route for a MacOS app to register kilometers for a business administration app. But, this is no longer possible, as the login for google maps no longer works. I understand we would have to pay to continue using the Google Maps service as it was and we would have to make changes to the app. That would be ok, but I was just wondering does any developer on this forum have suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Or even maybe have suggestions, to make this work better than before. Three suggestions by chatgpt: use ANWB route planner using google maps, Pro6pp, or to useWisp.Software (something I haven't heard of before. Your suggestions and ideas are welcome. Also, if the Apple Developer team knows of a way how to do this in your app, your advice is more than welcome. Have a nice day!

Apple developer taking weeks
I enrolled to the apple developer account more than one week ago. Nothing! After 3 or 4 emails to support I received an email with steps I should perform from the iPhone app. I did so, my money was charged and ... nothing. My enrollment has been withdrawn no activation nothing. I made another request (although I am not sure that it is ok). Can somebody help me?

Urgent: Invoice Correction Issue – No Resolution After Multiple Contacts
Hello Apple Developer Team, I have been trying to request a correction to my tax invoice for my Apple Developer Program purchase, but I have been continuously redirected between Apple Developer Support and Apple Store Online, with no resolution to my issue. Issue Details: Tax Invoice No.: 0015056100 Problem: The company name is incorrect, and the Tax ID is missing. Correction Requested: Company Name: Bluebik Vulcan Company Limited (Head Office) Tax ID: 0105565196514 Address: No.199 S-OASIS Building, 11th Floor, Unit no. 1103-1106, Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, Chomphon, Chatuchak, Bangkok, Thailand 10900 What Happened: I initially contacted Apple Developer Support, but they informed me that they do not handle invoice modifications and asked me to contact Apple Store Online. When I contacted Apple Store Online, they redirected me back to Developer Support. This back-and-forth has been going on for days, and no one has taken responsibility for my request. I need urgent assistance to resolve this issue. Could someone from Apple clarify which team is responsible for invoice modifications and escalate this matter? I have a Case ID for my request and can provide additional details if needed. Looking forward to a resolution as soon as possible. Best regards, Pornthep Jaroen-ngam | Non Technical Consultant, Associate Director Bluebik Vulcan Company Limited

Enrollment Stuck for Over 2 Weeks – No Response
We applied for the Apple Developer Program more than two weeks ago, and our application is completely stuck with no updates or clear next steps. Despite providing all required documents (Company registration, D-U-N-S number, ID verification, etc. and several times !), we are still waiting for approval, while there is nothing complicated (EU citizens, UK company) We've reached out multiple times to Apple Support but have received no concrete answers or timeline for when our application will be reviewed. Meanwhile, we have successfully completed similar processes with Google, Meta, and financial institutions like banks or PSP, all within 48h ! How can a company like Apple treat its partners this way? The lack of transparency in the approval process is frustrating and severely impacts our timeline. This kind of experience does not inspire trust or confidence in doing business with Apple... 🔹 Has anyone else experienced such long delays in the enrollment process? 🔹 Is there any way to escalate this to get an actual response? Apple, please address this issue and provide a clear resolution. Thank you.

iPhone HCE CardSession handlin
Hi, I'm wondering if there is any better documentation relating to card session handling. The informations are kind of limited: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc/cardsession/ It's not clear what should be used for keeping session or should it be created again after each transaction ? When I create a card session I pass the transaction but when at the and I call stopEmulation on card session than there is a problem with another transaction. What about the NFCPresentmentIntentAssertion? I know there's not information about "maximum suppression duration". I may only check isValid or acquire() on it. There's no information about how to properly manage it for another transaction. To sum up is that I would like to know should I create the new cardSession for each transaction (which would be strange cause it looks like singleton for me). If theres any impact when calling stopEnumaltion to cardSession or the startEmulation function may be called? The main issue is the 'double tap' flow where user must authenticate him during transaction.

We have attempted submitting the approvals a couple times with no success. Recently we had an error on screen saying %%USE_I18N_STRING_ERROR%% and Verification Unsuccessful. Would you be able to check the status of my application and if there is anything we need to do for verification? Thank you for your time and help! -Bob

Migrate Entitlement to Capability
I work on an app that has the com.apple.developer.mail-client entitlement. We're interested in trying out Xcode Cloud, and one of the project and workspace requirements is to use automatic code signing. We do not do this at the moment because it's not compatible with the additional entitlement. My understanding is that we can migrate to automatic code signing if we migrate the additional entitlement to a capability and that to accomplish this our account holder needs to submit a request (see the last section of that page). We submitted the request a little over 3 weeks ago, but so far we haven't heard any updates. We also tried reaching out directly to the email address linked in the com.apple.developer.mail-client docs, but have not heard back. We're now posting here to see if anyone can provide some guidance on whether there are other steps to complete or contacts to whom we should reach out. Thanks!

Stuck in Developer Program Enrollment Process - No Response for Months
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm hoping someone can offer advice on a frustrating situation with my company's Developer Program enrollment process. My timeline: Initial application: October 2024 Initial follow-up: October 2024 Requested document submission: February 2025 Multiple follow-up emails: February-March 2025 Current status: No response for months I've been trying to enroll my small startup (LLC) in the Apple Developer Program since October 2024. After initially being asked for documentation, I uploaded everything possible (including company formation documents). Despite multiple follow-up emails over several months, I've received no updates on my application status or confirmation that my documents were even received. My case number is 102426005487 (sharing in case Apple Support monitors these forums) but as I've followed up several times, there may be more different case numbers. Has anyone experienced similar delays or have suggestions on how to get actual human attention on this issue? I've tried emailing to devprograms multiple times without success. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Escalation Request: Poor Support from eurodev@apple.com
I am writing to formally escalate my ongoing and unresolved issues with registering a company developer account from Bulgaria. This process, which should be straightforward, has now extended into its 3rd month with no progress, despite my repeated attempts to follow every requirement diligently. Issues Encountered: Web Payment Failure - The system fails to charge my Wise card with no explanation or alternative resolution. Apple Developer App Verification Failure: My ID card is consistently rejected, despite submitting high-quality images that meet every listed requirement. I strongly suspect that your verification service does not properly recognize Bulgarian ID cards. EuroDev Support Response: My experience with eurodev[at]apple.com has been nothing short of disappointing. After resetting my enrollment process, they ceased communication entirely. Prior to that, responses were vague, unhelpful, and did not address my concerns meaningfully. Given the inefficiency and lack of response from the EuroDev team, I am requesting immediate escalation of my case to someone who can provide a concrete resolution. For comparison, my enrollment in Microsoft’s Developer Program was completed within one week, and their support team responded within a single business day. The level of friction in Apple’s process is simply unacceptable for a company of this scale, not to mention what Apple's vision is missing and what they stand for. Looking forward to a prompt and competent response.

No access to developer resources as administrator
We are currently experiencing the following: Developers who are invited to Appstore Connect in the "Administrator" role and are members of the development team no longer have access to the team's developer resources at https://developer.apple.com Even after deleting the user and a new invitation, there is no access to the developer resources. The problem has existed since yesterday and can be traced in several developer accounts.
