With the latest (26) version of Apple's developer tools, is there a way to manually attach a debugger (other than lldb) to an iOS app launched with "devicectl device process launch --start-stopped"? In the past, this was possible via the ios-deploy third-party tool (now defunct), which provided a debugserver port. This information is notably missing when using devicectrl – although the process ID of the launch process is provided, and the tool is clearly aimed at letting you launch and attach to processes from the command line. lldb can, of course, attach via its built-in support for this using the device set of commands. But I'm explicitly looking for a way to attach my own debugger via the GDB-compatible debug proxy.

Hi there, I am trying to create my first iOS app using Visual Studio (Win 11) and .NET MAUI. I created a developer account and if I want to start the debugger with my local device, VS forces me to Configure Automatic Provisioning. I can select my configured account but the operation fails (see screenshot). I have no idea what is going wrong and I cannot find any setting in the developer account to fix this problem. Can anyone help me out, what is wrong and how to fix, thx!

What happen when a deprecated method is used in project submitted to Apple Store Connect ? Generally the Apple documentation give the alternative like "Use ***: instead" but sometime the documentation do not suggest anything. What to do when a such Warning happen ?

Hi Team, I’ve tried downloading the EnableBluetoothCentralMatterClientDeveloperMode.mobileconfig certificate from multiple sources, but all the links I found point to expired versions. Could you please help me with the URL to the latest version of this certificate? Here are the links I’ve already tried, but none of them worked: https://project-chip.github.io/connectedhomeip-doc/guides/darwin.html#profile-installation https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/blob/master/docs/guides/darwin.md Apple Site Looking forward to your support. Thanks, Mantosh Kumar

In the archived documentation for Distribution Definition files (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/DistributionDefinitionRef/Chapters/Distribution_XML_Ref.html), the allowed-os-versions and os-version element are partially documented. I have a few questions about these elements: allowed-os-versions The documentation states: Availability: Available in OS X v10.6.6 and later. Has this element always worked correctly in the past? I'm asking because it does not seem to work correctly on OS X v10.14 for the min attribute of a sub os-version element. os-version The documentation states: This element is designed for you to use a specific OS version number for the min attribute, and a major OS version number for the before attribute. The expectation is that you will know an exact minimum version but not an exact major version. This keeps you from having to guess the last minor revision before the next major revision, as you would have to do if the before attribute were inclusive. This is quite confusing because the documentation never explicitly says what a specific or major OS version number is. Is specific major.minor.patch or major.minor? What is major? major or major.minor? As the documentation was created at a time where the OS version scheme was: 10.minor.patch (and minor was actually the major) and we are now in an era where the OS version is major.minor.path, this is even more confusing. I would also be curious to know what the major version is officially supposed to be for macOS Tahoe in this case. 16 or 26? Generally speaking, this documentation is missing examples for a lot of the elements. Also why is there a tag for InstallerJS and not one for Installation in the Developer Forums?

I can see that a MacOS VM guest running on top of an Apple Silicon MacOS host has GPU acceleration - indicating GPU sharing capabilities for the hardware. Is there also a way to have GPU acceleration in Linux guests (with Vulkan/Mesa drivers)?

I'm developing for compliance with Texas law in the United States. Currently, I'm encountering an issue where I want to test the feature point "when the app undergoes significant changes, a supervised user initiates a request." However, during actual testing, the app pops up an error message: "Can't Ask, An Unknown error occurred." Additionally, I see the following error message in the Xcode Console: "Error Domain=AskToCore.ATMessageComposeValidationError Code=4 'The user is in a region that does not support this type of ask.' UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=The user must be in a supported region to use this feature., NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Please ensure the user is in an eligible region., NSLocalizedDescription=The user is in a region that does not support this type of ask.}" I am indeed not in the Texas region. I want to conduct full-process testing before the feature is released to the App Store. What should I do? Apart from Sandbox testing (which, in fact, doesn't show any pop-ups either), how can I test under real-world conditions?

In SF Symbols 7 (115), there are 458 symbols missing Availability info. I only discovered this after using one that didn’t appear in iOS 18 but does in iOS 26. Questions: Are there plans to add Availability info for all symbols? If the field is blank, is there a safe latest-OS version we can assume? I realize managing 7,000+ icons is tough, but missing info like this makes development frustrating. It doesn't help that there's no build warning when a named image isn't found, it just defaults to the text label. Screenshot Screenshot of SF Symbols 7 showing three symbols missing Availability info. The symbol ellipsis.circle.badge is selected and its properties pane also shows no Availability info.

We are trying to setup Apple Unity Plugins, in out project we have a handful of developers who contribute to the project via git. When building and importing plugins via tarball (as instructed in the Github repo) the package clearly points to local path, so once pushed all members encounter the error: An error occurred while resolving packages: Project has invalid dependencies: com.apple.unityplugin.accessibility: Tarball package [com.apple.unityplugin.accessibility] cannot be found at path ..... When trying to actually move content to the package folder (same way as any other unity plugins is setup) and add it as "embedded", it works fine on local machine, but team members will get a few of errors: [Apple Unity Plug-ins] No Apple native plug-in libraries found. DLLNotFoundException: AppleCoreNativeMac assembly ... No Apple Native plug-in libraries found. Moreover AppleCoreNativeMac.bundle is flag as not verified and deleted by macOS. What is the right way to setup unity plugins in a project used by multiple members via sourcetree ?

I'm calling this command to export archive: xcodebuild -exportArchive -archivePath .build/XYZ.xcarchive -exportPath .build/XYZ.ipa -exportOptionsPlist Authenticator/ExportOptions.plist -quiet -allowProvisioningUpdates Here is my exportOptions file content &lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"&gt; &lt;plist version="1.0"&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;method&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;app-store-connect&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;signingStyle&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;automatic&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;teamID&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;ABCD&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/plist&gt; Most of the time this command fail with this error: error: exportArchive No Accounts error: exportArchive No signing certificate "iOS Distribution" found What we found is that our Apple ID just disappear from Xcode and we need to add it again manually. So there are two questions here: Why Apple ID account dissapears and how I can fix this? Is there an option to not use Apple ID account in Xcode and for example to use -authenticationKeyID flags of xcodebuild? Just to mention this happens only on our CI machine and not locally.

Hi All, I have an App on AppStore, recently the minimum supported version of the app was changed from iOS 12 to iOS 14. Post that the TestFlight builds are crashing on launch. If we revert the minimum supported iOS version to 12, the crash no longer happens. This project is using cocoapods, and from the crash logs it seems the issue with with PLCrashReporter framework. "EXC_CRASH" Termination reason: DYLD 9 weak-def symbol not found '__ZN7plcrash3PL_5async15dwarf_cfa_stateljiE10push_stateEv'. This issue is happening only on TestFlight builds where the minimum supported version is 14.0 Any pointer to a solution is welcome.

App Icon created with Icon Composer is empty for visionOS app We are developing a universal app, and the app’s icon was created using Icon Composer. Xcode 26, RC visionOS 26 and visionOS 2.5 App Icons on macOS, iOS, and iPadOS are correct We have archived the app for macOS and iOS and successfully uploaded it to the App Store. This strongly suggests that the App Icon configuration in our project settings is correct for these platforms. App Icon issue on visionOS However, the visionOS app icon is not working as expected: When testing on the Vision Pro simulator (versions 2.x and 26.0), the app icon appears empty. When archiving and submitting to the App Store, the process fails with the following error: The app’s Info.plist file is missing the CFBundleIcons.CFBundlePrimaryIcon key for the visionOS App Icon. This suggests that the project’s App Icon settings may not be correctly applied for visionOS builds. Request for assistance We are preparing to release our app, one of the first to support Liquid Glass, and would greatly appreciate guidance on how to resolve this issue with the visionOS app icon.

I'm finding developing for HomeKit using the iOS Simulator utterly confounding. All of my home's actual HomeKit accessories show up fine when I run the HomeKit app I'm developing on my actual phone. But none show up when I run my app in the iOS Simulator. Maybe that's how it's supposed to be? I decided to run the HomeKit Accessory Simulator in an attempt to get something to show up in the iOS Simulator, but the accessories I've created there don't show up in the Simulator either. How do I get devices to show up in the iOS Simulator? Thanks.

Has anyone here successfully set up macOS as a globally accessible, multiuser development server using native remote login (SSH) and VS Code Remote?

Hello, PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy Is primordial and without it the app is rejected from the Store I believe. All 5 ressources I had found related to it, mention XCODE, or explain how to add the code to langages that I don't use (Switf i think?) etc. I am building the app thought CI/CD, so prior to building it the app does not have privacy manifest and there is not way to generate it automatically without xcode it seems. My app is written in Flutter prior to becoming an iOS app. I am seeking for a method to do that. Thanks.
