Hello, I have created a .NET MAUI application in Windows Visual Studio 2022. Also I have a MAC fully configured with latest Visual Studio for MAC and Xcode Installed. When pairing the MAC for windows machine I am able to run the simulators for various IPhone devices(as they are attached to MAC) but when I try to run for the MacCatalyst from my Windows machine it doesnt work. Is it possible to create a build for the MAUI application for MacCatalyst from my windows machine.The build should be created in my Windows folder directory.?

Hi there I've recently had my upload rejected in Xcode Organizer as a result of one of the frameworks we use containing bitcode. Error: [ContentDelivery.Uploader.XXXXXXXXXX] Validation failed (409) Invalid Executable. The executable 'Sam.app/Frameworks/Foo.framework/Foo' contains bitcode. Is there an accurate way to determine whether an .xcframework contains bitcode ahead of time without using Xcode Organiser? My current methodology is below, please can I get some confirmation that this is accurate, or suggest a more efficient approach? I have concerns about my approach and whether it throws false positives for empty bitcode markers. 1. get original framework size 2. run xcrun bitcode_strip -r framework_path -o temp 3. get new framework size 4. if new size is smaller than original, then it contains bitcode Thanks for the help, Sam

Hello, I'm encountering an issue when trying to build and launch a Flutter app on a physical iOS device using Android Studio. Here is the full log: `Launching lib/main.dart on （iPhone Name） in debug mode... Automatically signing iOS for device deployment using specified development team in Xcode project: （Project ID） Running Xcode build... Xcode build done. 19.7s Failed to build iOS app Could not build the precompiled application for the device. Error (Xcode): Target debug_unpack_ios failed: Exception: Failed to codesign （Project Names）/build/ios/Debug-iphoneos/Flutter.framework/Flutter with identity （identity ID）. Error launching application on （iPhone Name）.` This only happens when using Android Studio. When I build the same project using Xcode, it runs fine on the same device. Background: I accidentally deleted all Apple accounts from Xcode recently. In Keychain Access, I had three identical certificates; I deleted the older two and kept the newest one. I suspect this may be related to provisioning or code signing, but I’m not sure how to resolve it within Android Studio. Any advice or steps to fix this would be greatly appreciated. I created a new test project in Xcode using the iOS > App template, enabled automatic signing in Signing & Capabilities, and selected my team.
 I then tried building and installing the app on a real device, and it worked successfully.
 This confirms that there are no issues with code signing or provisioning on the Apple side.
 Thanks in advance!

Hello, In my IOS app, I have been working on implementing a third-party library's xcframework into my app. (They don't provide spm or cocoapods). However, whenever I import the XCFramework into my app, the build is successful, but when uploading to App Store Connect, I receive an email with an error stating the Swift Support folder is missing. This app was made using SwiftUI. I have a sample project linked below. Other apps also use this framework, so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Project

Hi, I really appreciate the C++ binding provided. I got the metal-cpp source code from the website at Getting Started. However, I could not find the same for metal-cpp-extensions. Is it not available or do we have to always extract it from the sample code? Thanks.

How do I download the iPad Air (5th generation) 18.3 simulator? I activated my Mac and only have version 18.2 available. I need to test the simulator that they are testing, but I can't because I don't have version 18.3 available. I only have the iPad version 18.2 available and the application works fine on that version. I have already added logs in different parts of the application, but in the files that you shared with me no log appears. The macOS operating system is macOS Drought.

Not sure if this is common with releases but I've been doing some CI work recently so it's the first time I've seen this myself, When I list the runtimes installed on my machine: xcrun simctl list runtimes I notice the iOS 18.3.1 release has the below info: == Runtimes == iOS 18.3 (18.3.1 - 22D8075) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-3 Meanwhile the other runtimes are listed as: == Runtimes == iOS 17.5 (17.5 - 21F79) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-5 iOS 18.4 (18.4 - 22E5216h) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-4 watchOS 11.2 (11.2 - 22S99) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.watchOS-11-2 visionOS 2.3 (2.3 - 22N895) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.xrOS-2-3 (Apologies for the weird formatting above, using code blocks and quote markdown condenses things down to one line for some reason) This is causing some funkiness in my CI code which I've managed to workaround, but wondered if this was a common thing, specifically the mismatch between the iOS name and the runtime version. iOS 18.3 and com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-3 vs 18.3.1 - 22D8075 where the .1 has been dropped for the runtime names?

Hi, I want to build an ios app that uses static c libraries. For reference, i did the following as a test: Compiled a simple c date and time program with clang -c -arch arm64 -sysroot <iPhoneOSSDK_path> date.c -o date_arm64.o Created the static lib ar rcs libdatetime_arm64.a date_arm64.o Added the lib in my Xcode project. Added the (.a) file in Build Rules -> Link Binary With Libraries Included the (.a) and (.h) file path in Build Settings -> Search Paths -> Header and Library Search Path Created a Bridging-Header.h file where I added #import "date.h" In my App.swift file, I called the function for getting the date and time let dateTimeStr = String(cString: get_current_datetime()) print("Current Date and Time: \(dateTimeStr)") After doing all the steps above, I am met with the error - Cannot find 'get_current_datetime' in scope Is there any other method to use static c libraries in xcode?

Hello! We would like to know the steps required to build an application and submit it to the Apple Store using an automated process on a server. Here are our conditions: We have a server running macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 on Amazon EC2. Xcode 16.1 (Build version 16B40) is installed. We use only console commands, as the GUI is not available. We use Cordova to add the iOS platform to the application. A private key, certificate, and provisioning profile have already been created and are located on the server. Could you please clarify: What commands are needed to configure the Keychain to use the certificate and provisioning profile? How can we build the application using xcodebuild? What are the steps to sign and submit the application to the App Store with minimal human interaction? Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Is there any way to manually adding UIDeviceFamily key inside info.plist and it updates the values inside xcode > Supported destinations section??

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?

I am working on a hobby project to develop my own Bluetooth peripheral. The platform for this peripheral is a Espressif ESP32-based TinyS3 from Unexpected Maker. I have defined the bluetooth device & service information using custom UUIDs. Using nRF Connect or Light Blue mobile applications I can discover and connect to my device. I receive confirmation of this BLE connection and modifications to the my BLE Service from my code on my TinyS3. I am attempting to write a custom software program that uses the onboard Mac Bluetooth hardware to detect this device. I am technically using Qt's Bluetooth infrastructure via PySide6 [python]. Despite being able to see my device in the mobile BLE applications, my software as well as the Mac Bluetooth System Services does not detect my BLE device. I am broadcasting advertising messages at a 250ms rate, and since they are findable by these mobile applications, I am wondering if MacOS has specific requirements for advertising data for what it considers as a "legitimate/ connectable" device. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am getting the following warning printed in the console while my app is running Invalid profile 'c2ci': tags 'gTRC' and 'desc' overlap Console metadata specifies it comes from ColorSync at com.apple.colorSync How to fix this? It prints a lot in the console.

Hi, From App analytics, we found that our app crashed from time to time on users' devices despite that we have tested it thoroughly on our devices. We are doubt that it's the reason why we can't retain them. But how can we get the crash reports for the app installed on user devices? We have no users' emails and can't ask them directly.
