TL;DR version: AkVox - “Your App in Your User’s Language” Quickly and easily localize your app into as few or as many languages as you want with AkVox. Longer version: AkVox can localize any Xcode project. Simply drag your Exported Localizations folder into AkVox, click translate, then export, and you’re ready to import the translated localizations catalogs back into Xcode. Alas, you cannot import the whole localizations folder as one, you must import each catalog individually, a process that takes around 10 seconds per language. AkVox can also assist you when you’re ready to publish your app on App Store Connect. You can create a list of texts you will enter to promote your app and AkVox will translate them. Again, you can’t apply all your translations to the App Store in ne go, you have to apply each language individually. To make this task less painful, AkVox has a convenient set of buttons to make the copy and paste process as quick and simple as possible. The same arrangement is available when you come to add “mini texts” during setting monetization subscriptions. AkVox employs Google Cloud Translate which means you will need an API Key to be able to run full translations. However, Google offers a generous monthly allowance of 500,000 characters to be translated for free each month. This may well mean that you don’t ever pay for the translation process, just the very low price to use AkVox. The free version of AkVox simulates translating by substituting jumbled versions of Hamlet’s “To be or not to be” speech – this is instead of utilising what would normally be used in this case, the tediously dull Lorem Ipsum text.

i am trying to create key for apn file to use it in firebase fcm for my app but when click on download this error occured Download Failed Auth Key can only be downloaded once. This auth key has already been downloaded. what should i do ?

Hello, I am currently in the process of gradually adding support for LiquidGlass to my app. The transition is taking place incrementally, i.e., new screens and minor features are gradually being adapted to the new design and already deployed. Currently, the old design is still active via the feature flag UIDesignRequiresCompatibility, as the existing UI should remain locked for the public app store version until the transition is complete. My challenge is as follows: I would like to work with the new LiquidGlass design during development without having to manually change the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag with each deployment. Ideally, I am looking for a solution where: • the new design is only activated for me (e.g., specific account or specific devices) • the old design remains active for all other users • the App Store version can be delivered unchanged So my question is: Is it possible to control UIDesignRequiresCompatibility via remote config or server-side logic in order to activate the new design specifically for certain users or devices? I have observed similar behavior on WhatsApp—two devices with the same app version, but only one shows the new design. This suggests server-side or remote config-based control. Do you have any experience or recommendations on how to implement something like this cleanly? Kind regards Heinz

I am working on a MAUI application. When I go to archive my build to then release it, my bundle is not including the Assets.car file that apple is seemingly expecting for handling the app icons, which is leading to issues trying to publish my app. The assets are in a AppIcon.appiconset folder in my project (under Platforms>iOS>Resources) with a proper Contents.json file also in there. They are setup as a BundledResource (also have tried ImageAssets for the build type but with the same issue occurring). I am using visual studio 2022 on Windows 11 paired with a Mac (Sequoia 15.5) and Xcode 16.4. I have even tried manually compiling the asset catalog from xcode16.4 and trying to use terminal commands to have actool create the Assets.car but that runs with no files created to the output destination as well as no errors. I believe there may be an issue with actools in my Xcode copy. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck. Any suggestions or tips?

Hi everyone, I’m working on a Capacitor app built with Angular, and I’m trying to call a Swift class directly from the root of the iOS project (next to AppDelegate.swift) without using a full Capacitor plugin structure. The Swift file is called RtspVlcPlugin.swift and looks like this: import Capacitor @objc(RtspVlcPlugin) public class RtspVlcPlugin: CAPPlugin { @objc func iniciar(_ call: CAPPluginCall) { call.resolve() } } In AppDelegate.swift I register it like this: if let bridge = self.window?.rootViewController as? CAPBridgeViewController { bridge.bridge?.registerPluginInstance(RtspVlcPlugin()) print("✅ RtspVlcPlugin registered.") } The registration message prints correctly in Xcode logs. But from Angular, when I try to call it like this: import { registerPlugin } from '@capacitor/core'; const RtspVlcPlugin: any = registerPlugin('RtspVlcPlugin'); RtspVlcPlugin.iniciar({ ... }); I get this error: {"code":"UNIMPLEMENTED"} So, even though the plugin is registered manually, it’s not exposing any methods to the Angular/Capacitor runtime. My question is: What is the correct way to access a manually created Swift class (in the root of the iOS project) from Angular via Capacitor? Thanks in advance!

I try to distribute my App again, but receive now the error that the Minimum IOS is not supported by Info.plist with Runner. i have latest XCode and the error stays whatever IOS I Set in General and in the building rules. Any one has an idea or had same issue since recent Xcode / project Updates ? thanks so much

I am converting a project to expo and have created a new expo project. I have migrated most of the react-native code but need to add a native module. I added it using npx create-expo-module expo-settings --local The name of the module DataRetrieval. So far so good but I need a package SwiftCSV. I added it as a dependency to Pods and did a npx pod-install but when I try to import SwiftCSV as a subproject, it is not found. So I tried adding to the DataRetrieval podspec an s.dependency 'SwiftCSV'. I then get an error that there is a redefining of symbols. I am able to include this in a regular Swift file but not in the sub-module under expo. What am I missing about how to not only add a native module but to add dependencies and include it in my project? Thanks, Ray

Hi, I have a .NET MAUI app running on .NET 9. When I test locally in debug or release mode it works perfectly fine, but when testing from TestFlight it crashes almost immediately every time. I have sent the crash report to TestFlight and produced the symbolicated.crash file (attached), but I'm not sure it's helpful for understanding how to fix the issue. If anyone can help me understand what the issue might be and any possible fixes it'd be very much appreciated. I'm developing using Visual Studio 2022 paired to my Mac. I have distributed previously without issue, but now can't seem to, even after reverting recent code. net9.0-ios 15.0 symbolicated.crash

Hi, I accidentally upgraded my test device (iPhone 13 mini) to iOS 26. I really need to downgrade it to 18.7.X again. It seems this isn't possible since Apple doesn't sign the .ipsw anymore. Is there really no way for a paying developer to downgrade her test devices? (Please don't tell me to use the support forums, this is a concerning a developer test device)

I want to test different types of journaling suggestions, like for example photo/video containing ones but as a developer I have no control over what's shown in the Journaling Suggestions sheet. And this makes it really difficult to develop or test any suggestion type other than "reflection". Please let us have a fake suggestions sheet that includes all kinds of suggestion types so we can test. We could toggle it under Developer settings I think.

I have a Swift package with a test suite that contains some tests implemented with Swift Testing. Locally, they run quickly, but when I run them on Semaphore CI (https://semaphore.io), the first Swift Testing test to execute incurs a performance penalty. I'm running the tests with xcodebuild on iOS Simulator: xcodebuild test \ -scheme "Scheme" \ -workspace Workspace.xcworkspace \ -destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 16,OS=18.2" The scheme is configured to use a test plan that has parallelization disabled. Here's an excerpt from the output showing what I'm seeing: Test Suite 'All tests' started at 2025-04-03 07:47:37.328. ◇ Test run started. ↳ Testing Library Version: 102 (arm64-apple-ios13.0-simulator) ◇ Iteration 1 started. ◇ Suite <redacted> started. ◇ Test foo() started. ✔ Test foo() passed after 23.063 seconds. When foo() is not the first test it runs in under 100 ms. The reason that I have parallelization disabled is that I was initially seeing all of the tests in this suite incur a performance hit. But now it's clear that there must be some startup cost. Things I'm wondering: What is this startup penalty? Why don't I encounter it locally? Why is it attributed to the first test? (this seems like a bug) My wild guesses around 1 so far have been… maybe some simulator clone is booting. I've tried to rule that out by disabling parallelization, but maybe there's still something there. maybe swift testing is getting loaded lazily and there's some kind of dynamic linking cost Thoughts on 2… maybe there's some one-time penalty when using swift testing that I've already incurred locally but that has not yet been incurred in the CI image Guidance welcome! x-posted: FB17102970 (Unexpected performance penalty attributed to first Swift Testing test) https://forums.swift.org/t/first-swifttesting-test-always-slow/79066

My app will not open to myself or to clients and has a pop up that claims "App Outdated" The app version you are using is no longer supported. Please install he latest Heartland update through the App Store. However, there have been no updates to the app.

By default, it seems 15.6 is shipped with git version 2.39.5 (Apple Git-154) I was wondering when Apple will ship a Git version above 2.43 to resolve this vulnerability. Git Carriage Return Line Feed (CRLF) Vulnerability (CVE-2025-48384) https://github.com/git/git/security/advisories/GHSA-vwqx-4fm8-6qc9 You can install Homebrew then install newer versions of git using Homebrew; however that installs in a new location so the vulnerability is still present as the native version is behind and updated by Apple during software updates Thanks

Hi, there's this point at which a beginner needs to beg for help. Unable to open mach-O at path: /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Binaries/RenderBox/install/Root/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/RenderBox.framework/default.metallib Error:2 I get this everytime I select a month and year on a custom date picker, I believe because I try to force the ".generateChartData()" for the chart to update. I guess the problem might be that the ".onAppear" and ".onChange" are conflicting with each other? } .onChange(of: showDatePicker) { viewModel.startDate = selectedDate viewModel.generateChartData() } } .onAppear { viewModel.generateChartData() }

When building an app with iOS26 beta3, I received a warning saying "Launch screens will soon be required." Does this mean that, similar to the thread below, the app might not launch in builds for iOS27 and later (including iOS27)? https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/789004

Good morning everyone, I am developing a Flutter app for Android and iOS. When I press a button, the app detects the location of the device (obviously with permissions already granted). On Android everything works correctly. On iOS, however, when I press the button for the first time after opening the app, the location is detected after about 30-50 seconds. On the other hand, if I repeat the operation later, the response time is drastically reduced (only a few seconds). I am using the location package (https://pub.dev/packages/location), and the code to get the location is as follows: var currentLocation = await location.getLocation(); Has anyone experienced this problem before or knows how to solve it? Thank you very much! Federico

Hi, experts, I want to find Siri response window by bundle id and use it for checking or printing, here is my example code: XCUIDevice.shared.siriService.activate(voiceRecognitionText: "call mom") let siriApp = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "***") // Print out text from siriApp, // expecte print: "Sorry, I can't make a phone call with your iphone." Where should I put into ***? I tried "com.apple.SiriViewService", "com.apple.siri.velocity", "com.apple.springboard' but nothing work Any suggestion appreciated, thanks!
