Reporter 3.1.6 has been reporting the following error since 7/18/2024:
"Report is unexpectedly not available. Try again later"
Hello,
We have an app built with a hybrid framework called NativeScript, and deployed on iPad devices. Since the update to iOS 17.4, we're experiencing crashes that seem to be caused by an out of memory problem.
I was able to retrieve crashes reports in .ips format that seem to confirm the out of memory hypothesis, but by lack of experience and knowledge in iOS environment, I couldn't find the origin of the problem yet.
One of the most difficult point is that we haven't been able yet to reproduce the bug at home, even with the concerned tablets.
Our app crashes randomly on customer's sites, this is manifested by the app getting frozen, with graphic artifacts in the form of vertical gray stripes onto the whole screen. For now, the remedy is to reboot the tablet remotely.
I've tried to launch the app on a problematic tablet in profiling mode with Xcode, with the Leaks tools from Instruments, but even after navigating in the whole app, I can't see any suspicious growth in memory usage.
Is there someone here that can help me to read the .ips file to understand and isolate the cause of the problem ?
Thanking you by advance.
P.S : I formatted ips file in valid JSON format
I have an apple developer account, but can't access its Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section, and when I try to open it it gives following error
Unable to find a team with the given Team ID "######"to which you belong. Please contact Apple Developer Program Support. https://developer.apple.com/support
I am concerned whether we can access it in an individual account or we have to make the purchase
I need this to be able to run my apps on real device instead of simulator cause it keeps telling that certificate not valid.
I'm running a MacOS15 beta 3 VM on a MacOS15 beta 3 Host (M2 Pro Mac Mini) using the Apple Virtualization Framework (via https://github.com/s-u/macosvm).
For building my app inside the VM I need Rosetta 2, since flutter still uses some Intel binaries.
But when I want to install Rosetta 2 I'm always getting the message, that installing Rosetta 2 is not allowed on this system.
Digging in the log files I found a message from the installer, that the system is not supported.
Searching online I just find a method for using Rosetta 2 inside Linux VM's using the Virtualization Framework.
Am I missing something or is it not possible to use Rosetta 2 with MacOS guests?
XCTest can not get ios 18 contacts permission page elements, can not click "Allow Full Access" button.
I'm new to Xcode and have built a simple widget that runs on my macOS. The simulator opens whenever I run the project, and I can see my widget. However, when I close the simulator, it crashes, and I get the error message "WidgetKit Simulator quit unexpectedly".
I run Xcode 16 beta 3
Any ideas?
I want to use sftp functionality in my SwiftUI app and I have decided to try and do it using plain libssh2 (ie. without an initial wrapper or anything). libssh2 is written in C.
What are the steps I need to take in order to start calling the libssh2 C functions in my SwiftUI app?
Hello,
My app often crashes when I use simulators. I would like some help with reading the crash report that is generated. Especially with the part below Thread 0 Crashed. Based on other posts I understand that the 0x8BADF00D in the crash report is a WatchDog crash that basically says that WatchDog terminated the app because the main thread was blocked for a significant time. Many processes can block the main thread so it's hard to find out what it is in our specific case. Can someone help me reading through the crash report?
Short_crash_report.txt
Background information
The application is Xamarin Native and I use Rider as an IDE. When I use Visual Studio, the simulators run just fine. No crash occurs while using my app on a device.
The crash happens on multiple simulators with different OS versions. I already deleted XCode cache, erased content and settings of several simulators and deleted iOS DeviceSupport files.
Hi,
I am writing in to check if there is a way to detect Frida. As we have a Mobile App Penetration Test (MAPT), and the tester uses Frida as the tool for the penetration test.
We have implemented these codes to detect Frida and Objection:
static bool isInjected0(){
NSArray *suspiciousLibraries = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"FridaGadget", @"frida", @"cynject", @"libcycript", nil];
int count = _dyld_image_count();//Get the number of loaded images
if (count> 0) {
for (int i = 0; i <count; i++) {
//Traverse all image_names. Determine whether there are DynamicLibraries
const char * dyld = _dyld_get_image_name(i);
if (strstr(dyld, "DynamicLibraries")) {
return YES;
}
for (NSString *suspiciousLibrary in suspiciousLibraries) {
if ([[NSString stringWithUTF8String: dyld] rangeOfString:suspiciousLibrary].location != NSNotFound) {
return YES;
}
}
}
}
return NO;
}
We also added these codes to detect the default ports than Frida is using
@interface FridaDetector : NSObject
+ (BOOL)detectFridaPort;
+ (BOOL)isPortOpen:(in_port_t)port;
@end
@implementation FridaDetector
+ (BOOL)detectFridaPort {
in_port_t port = 27042;
return [self isPortOpen:port];
}
+ (BOOL)isPortOpen:(in_port_t)port {
int socketFileDescriptor = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
if (socketFileDescriptor == -1) {
NSLog(@"Failed to create socket");
return NO;
}
struct sockaddr_in addr;
memset(&addr, 0, sizeof(addr));
addr.sin_len = sizeof(addr);
addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
addr.sin_port = htons(port); // Ensuring the port is in network byte order
addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
struct sockaddr bind_addr;
memcpy(&bind_addr, &addr, sizeof(addr));
BOOL result = NO;
if (bind(socketFileDescriptor, (struct sockaddr*)&bind_addr, sizeof(addr)) == -1) {
NSLog(@"Failed to bind socket, port might be open");
result = YES;
} else if (listen(socketFileDescriptor, SOMAXCONN) == -1) {
NSLog(@"Failed to listen on socket, port might be open");
result = YES;
}
close(socketFileDescriptor);
return result;
}
@end
We are able to detect Frida on a normal device, but I believe the tester did some workaround to prevent us from detecting the Frida present on their device.
Is there a better way to detect Frida and Objection?
When having my iPhone connected to my Mac via USB cable, how can I take a screenshot of the home screen from a swiftUI app?
I tried using libimobiledevice (idevicescreenshot) but that requires install the developer disk image. When looking for it, it turns that my Xcode (version 15.4) only provides that kind of images up to iOS 16.4.
I have looked everywhere on this site, but couldn't fine the required image or otherwise, how to take the screenshot I need.
Thanks!
I want to automate tests for my iOS app and start writing UITests.
Sometimes system alerts appear, and my tests have to simulate button tapping.
In iOS and iPadOS these alerts are available via the system Springboard application:
let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard")
let cancelButton = springboard.alerts.buttons["Cancel"].firstMatch
if cancelButton.exists {
cancelButton.tap() // <-- cancel button taps, and test continue working
}
But when I launch my test in the Vision Pro simulator, the springboard is not available:
let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard")
print(springboard.exists) // <-- "false" will be printed, springboard does not exist
It means that I can't automate button tapping in system alerts.
So, my question is:
How can I access system alerts in VisionOS and tap buttons by UITests?
Hi,
I am developing an iOS application using React Native on the Expo platform with EAS. I have followed all of the Expo documentation for setting up my development environment, but in order to create a development build to test my app on my iPhone 12 mini, it says that I need to enable Developer Mode on my device.
The issue I'm running into is that when I go to Settings > Privacy & Security, here is no Developer Mode option as expected. I ensured that my device is registered in the Apple Developer portal, and I tried restarting my device multiple times to no avail. I also tried searching the developer forums for a solution, but the only solution I saw was to hook my device up to XCode which isn't an option since I'm developing my app on Windows using EAS.
Note that I'm running iOS 17.5.1 on my iPhone 12 mini.
Please let me know if there's anything I can do or anything I'm missing to enable Developer Mode on my device.
Hello everyone,
I am trying to create a macro that depends on an external package to abstract some of the packages logic. The point is that the dependency does not support macOS which results in a build failure when trying to build the macro.
Since macOS 10.15 is required for creating macros, any thing can be done to get it to work?
Here is a sample to what I'm trying to do
import PackageDescription
import CompilerPluginSupport
let package = Package(
name: "Stringify",
platforms: [
.macOS(.v10_15),
.iOS(.v13),
.tvOS(.v13),
.watchOS(.v6),
.macCatalyst(.v13)
],
products: [
.library(
name: "Stringify",
targets: ["Stringify"]
),
.executable(
name: "StringifyClient",
targets: ["StringifyClient"]
),
],
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/apple/swift-syntax.git", from: "509.0.0"),
.package(url: "https://github.com/MyDependency", from: "1.0.0"),
],
targets: [
.target(
name: "Stringify",
dependencies: ["StringifyMacros"]
),
.executableTarget(
name: "StringifyClient",
dependencies: ["Stringify"]
),
.macro(
name: "StringifyMacros",
dependencies: [
.product(name: "SwiftSyntaxMacros", package: "swift-syntax"),
.product(name: "SwiftCompilerPlugin", package: "swift-syntax"),
.product(name: "MyDependency", package: "MyDependency"),
],
swiftSettings: [
.define("IOS_ONLY")
]
),
],
swiftLanguageVersions: [.v5]
)

Some of the errors like ".framework contains disallowed nested bundles" we find out at later stage when uploading builds to TestFlight.
It will be great if we can have similar script that apple uses or some custom script to verify it during the build time.
So before I reinvent the wheel is there any script I can use at build time to detect this issue?
I'm a complete newbie to building an App, this project is a GUI that interacts with an LLM AI service, it's mostly html, javascript, python. I have something that works in a web browser, and mostly works in Android Studio, but in Xcode there are numerous issues. It's my understanding this is something to do with permissions. I have asked an AI which suggested various things that haven't worked, such as reinstalling Cocoapods, and disabling SIP. Are you smarter than an AI, or at least better informed? If so, suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

Hello!
I have an applications which contains another application in Contents/EmbeddedApps/
pkgbuild --root "$rootdir/$APPNAME" --scripts installscripts --install-location "/Applications/$APPNAME" --identifier com.my.id --sign 'Developer ID Installer: *** (YYY)' --version $VERSION "$PACKAGE.pkg"
Notarised then.
Now when I install the package I don't see embedded application inside Contents/EmbeddedApps/
macOS Version 14.6 Beta (23G5061b)
A month ago I was able to install my packges successfully. But now all my old packages are affected.
Also I made simple project with just two "Hello World" applications and embed one into another. I create .pkg notarised package and try to install it. Still EmbeddedApps is empty. But the files of embedded application in build/ directory becomes crowned root:wheel. Looks like installer uses my working directory for embedded application instead of /Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/EmbeddedApps/Emb.app
Hello,
I have a test bundle in my application and one of the strong request of our project is to run ui tests from command line having just application build.
How to run unit tests on .app file that has a test target?
What we tried
xcrun devicectl device install app --device <device-identifier> <UITestBundle-Runner.app>
xcrun devicectl device process launch --device <device-identifier> --start-stopped <com.apptestbundle-Runner.xcrun>
It launches and is waiting pid to be attached.
In lldb:
device select <device-identifier>
device process list
Seeing process 'UITestBundle-Runner' pid.
device process --pid 'pid id'
It attaches and I can see 'debugserver' in the pid list, but it does not start testing and I need tests to start and run.
Thanks!
Issue:
I have been using the VSCode for quite sometime. Since today morning, the app is shutting on my machine. I have tried re-installing the app, restarted my laptop, but to no avail.
