How can I have my app developed with XCode in my iphone forever?
So I just managed to build one app for personal use that I want to use daily in my iphone. However, once installed in my device through XCode, after one week the application is no longer available. I'm aware about the one week trial for free users and one year for a paid account, but... for real? Isn't there an alternative? And if not... does it means that in order to use my app for let's say 5 years I will have to pay 500$? Is just a bit crazy to think about it but I did look on the internet and did not found a clear information about how this works. Thank you in advance :)

Typo: "Enteprise"
This typo appears in a two docs I can find. Is there a better way to notify Apple about this, than making a post here> https://developer.apple.com/help/account/membership/program-enrollment/ https://developer.apple.com/documentation/enterpriseprogramapi/users Also appears in some legacy docs, but that probably matters less: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/LegacyTechnologies/WebObjects/WebObjects_4.0/System/Library/Frameworks/EOControl.framework/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/Reference/Java/EOControl.Java.pdf

NotaryTool submissions stuck at “In Progress”
Summary Several notarization submissions have remained in the In Progress state for many hours. I’d like to confirm whether this is expected behavior and what steps I can take to resolve or re-submit safely. Command used xcrun notarytool submit "/Users/.../MortiseAI-arm64.dmg" --keychain-profile "mai_publish" --wait Submission history (excerpt) createdDate: 2025-11-06T22:52:12.019Z id: 4254d623-**** name: MortiseAI-arm64.dmg status: In Progress createdDate: 2025-11-06T13:00:28.016Z id: c7397c1c-**** name: MortiseAI-arm64.dmg status: In Progress createdDate: 2025-11-06T11:24:12.624Z id: 44bcbab2-**** name: MortiseAI.zip status: In Progress (Several other submissions show the same In Progress status.) Questions Are there known reasons that could cause notarization requests to remain in In Progress for an extended time? What is the recommended method to cancel these pending submissions and safely re-submit? Are there diagnostic steps (for example, xcrun notarytool log ) that can help analyze this issue? Notes • Using --wait with a keychain profile. • Will provide additional environment or Xcode details if needed. Thanks in advance for your help!

No response about apple developer program after payment
I'm based in Belarus and have been trying to reach Apple Support for over a week with no response. I paid for the Apple Developer Program about a week and a half ago—the payment was processed, but I haven't seen any results or confirmation. They asked me to submit ID documents, so I sent a photo of my passport. Since then, I haven’t received any updates. I’m not sure how to get through to support to either confirm the status of my purchase or issue a refund. Thanks for your attention.

Can’t get enrollment after payment, within almost 2 weeks
Hello everyone, I’m starting to losing my hope to publish my application on App Store. Because I applied for apple developer membershi, and just waited for a few time, apple charged 99$ from me, and said wait up to 48 hours, I get a response that said that I need to pass my id documents, so I attached my documents in the given link, and again email said to me wait up to 48 hours, this email I got a week ago, and still no response from them. I opened 3 tickets in support, and still no reply. Probably I could call them but unfortunately I can’t, because I live in Belarus, and we don’t have any official apple calling support, so Im very upset with it. Even if there’s some problems with the country where I live, why just don’t give me a rejection and dont charge money from me? They just took 99$, and no information about status of my application for membership. I applied from website

Apple Developer subscription invoice - solve this already - we need to find it easy and download it
(To all readers, moderators, AI, bots, etc: please avoid telling me to search the forum! Answer here. Thank you!). No matter what I do, no matter which link or advice I follow, I can't end up at the invoice of my paid subscription. Not on screen, nor for download. Just as if it does not exist (emails doesn't count, it is just a receipt text). I sign in, I go to Orders, I enter the order number (e.g. AEM079****), I enter the SAME email where I received the confirmation email for the purchase. At the end it says either "there was a problem... blah-blah, try again" or something similar to "The order number entered is already linked to an Apple ID.". Well, that IS ME, the same email. I am really sick of this already, every time my accountant asks me for the invoice, I go to Apple hoping "let me find it this time". But Nope, never happened. And it is not onle me. Can Apple solve this years-old-issue? Please do NOT close this question until I (we) all get an advice or answer which REALLY WORKS! Thank you. In case you have the knowledge how to to do this, post the answer here, do not forward me to some 5 years old advice or workaround. If you don't know, do not "guess". Thank you. And yes, I am angry :-)

New Developer
I am a new apple developer and I don’t really know what this is about besides getting early update. I know that it has something to do with coding but I’m on a phone and I don’t think I can do that. Anyway I would like to know what this is really about. Thank you in advance.

Issue with UIPopoverPresentationController position drifting on iPadOS 26.0
After upgrading my iPad to iPadOS 26.0, I noticed that when using UIPopoverPresentationController, the popover no longer appears at the expected position. According to the debug logs, the position of the arrow indicator is printed correctly. Interestingly, the issue can be fixed temporarily by switching between portrait and landscape orientations. Could you please help me resolve this issue? UIAlertController *newSheet = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"111111" message:@"2222222222222" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet]; UIAlertAction *action = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"1112313" style:(UIAlertActionStyleDefault) handler:^(UIAlertAction * _Nonnull action) { }]; [newSheet addAction:action]; newSheet.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover; UIPopoverPresentationController *popover = [newSheet popoverPresentationController]; popover.sourceView = cell; [self presentViewController:newSheet animated:YES completion:nil];

Transfer apps with previous Sandboxed Group Container
I know it was not possible previously, but wonder have things changed to support transfer of apps with this condition: Sandboxed Group Container You can only transfer sandboxed apps that are not sharing a group container. Our old company is having some issues and cannot continue, and would like to transfer to another company without doing the binary reassignment process which loses all the reviews. Thank you!

Can’t complete Apple Developer Program enrollment — “Your enrollment could not be completed”
Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, but I keep getting this message: Your enrollment could not be completed. Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time. I’ve already verified my Apple ID and updated my personal information (including my full legal name to match my ID documents), but the issue still persists. The problem is that I also can’t reach Apple Support — every time I try to contact them through the enrollment support form, it redirects me back to the same page with no response. Has anyone else experienced this recently? Is there any direct contact method (email or phone number) that actually works for resolving this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated — I’m stuck at this step and can’t move forward with publishing my apps. Thank you! — Bruno

MDM vendor CSR option not available in developer portal
Hi, Our organization is planning to build an MDM tool and for that we are in need of an MDM vendor certificate for ourselves. We have already enrolled in Apple Developer Program but still didn't see the MDM CSR option in apple developer portal. Did anyone get the CSR option in your developer portal after enrolling in Apple Developer Program? Please share the steps to enable that option in my developer portal. Or Do we need any other license for availing MDM CSR option ? Any insights on this is much appreciated. Thanks!

Developer Program Enrollment Code Marked as Already Redeemed
I’m having issues enrolling in the Apple Developer Program. My original Apple ID was unable to enroll due to an internal restriction, and after multiple calls with Support (including L2), I was advised to create a new Apple ID and use the same enrollment code I was awarded for being selected as a Swift Student Challenge 2025 winner. However, when I attempt to redeem the code with the new account, I receive an error stating that the code has already been redeemed. I have never successfully enrolled with the original account, so the code should not be marked as used. I’ve tried working through Support several times, but I’m still stuck. Could someone please review this issue or issue a new code so I can complete my enrollment? Thank you in advance for your help.

iOS 26 Voip + LiveCommunicationKit device is unlocked not work
After upgrading to iOS 26, the video call feature previously implemented using Voip + LiveCommunicationKit is behaving inconsistently: when the device has a passcode, the app can properly launch to the call screen, but when there's no passcode and the device is unlocked, the app fails to launch and enter the call page. How should this issue be resolved?
