I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

I have an app on the App Store for many years enabling users to post text into clouds in augmented reality. Yet last week abruptly upon installing the app on the iPhone the screen started going totally dark and a list of little comprehensible logs came up of the kind: ARSCNCompositor <0x300ad0e00>: ARSCNCompositor (0, 0) initialization failed. Matting is not set up properly. many times, then RWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: Unable to update pose [PredictorFailure] for timestamp 870.392108 ARWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: Unable to predict pose [1] for timestamp 870.392108 again several times and then: ARWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: SLAM error callback: Error Domain=Slam Error Code=7 "Non fatal error occurred due to significant drop in a IMU data" UserInfo={NSDescription=Non fatal error occurred due to significant drop in a IMU data, NSLocalizedFailureReason=SlamEngineNodeGroup Failure: IMU issue: gyro data stream verification failed [Significant data drop]. Failed on timestamp: 870.413247, Last known timestamp: 865.350198, Delta: 5.063049, System timestamp: 870.415781, Delta between system and frame: 0.002534. } and then again the pose issues several times. I hoped the new beta version would have solved the issue, but it was not the case. Unfortunately I do not know if that depends on the beta version or some other issue, given the app may be not installed on the Mac simulator.

Whenever I try to use SwiftUI previews, the preview fails with a CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile error like this: == PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR: FailedToLaunchAppError: Failed to launch com.my-company.Test | ================================== | | [Remote] CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile: Could not load object file during preview: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | path: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | ================================== | | | [Remote] XOJITError | | | | | | XOJITError: '/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o': No such file or directory It appears that the preview process cannot find the compiled .o files. However, when I check in Finder, the files do exist and normally running the app works fine. It is noteworthy that this is independent of the XCode project or view I try to preview. It is a global issue on my system. Previews not even work when I create a blank new SwiftUI project in XCode. I tried deleting all caches, derived data, preview caches etc. But without any effect. I have this in XCode 16.3 as well as in 16.4 RC. On macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 on a MacBook Air M4. Does anybody have an idea what might be causing this?

We are getting following error in xcode cloud "The step invocation hit a user timeout. The xcodebuild archive invocation timed out. No activity has been detected on stdout, stderr or the result bundle in 30 minutes" We are using following env to create a build. Xcode: 14.2 Macos: Ventura 13.2.1 We didn't face any issue in Ventura 13.2.0 and we are seeing this issue in our first build using ventura 13.2.1. The difference I see between successful and failure build, I don't see "Discovering Swift tasks after 'Compiling { list of swift file " in a failed build. I see compiling { list of swift file } and end of the compilation, the build is failing.

Is anybody able to save the autocreated testplan successfully with Xcode 16.3? I get a crash no matter what (different filenames, locations, machines, ...). Now created a template project: same thing. Xcode Version 16.3 (16E140) on macOS 15.5 (24F74) Known issue, or am I holding it wrong?

We have multiple Jenkins jobs running UI Tests on a Mac with a device attached. This works most of the time but sometimes the tests don't run and the xcreport generated has an error like: BCOVBRDCoverageUITests-Runner encountered an error in BCOVBRDCoverageUITests failed with: Failed to install or launch the test runner. (Underlying Error: Failed to create directory on device 'Brightcove's iPhone 14 Plus' (00008110-000C54912246401E) to hold runtime profiles for application with bundle ID 'com.brightcove.BCOVBRDCoverageUITests.xctrunner': (null). (Underlying Error: The system failed to get the path on the remote device for the provided domain. (Underlying Error: The connection was interrupted.))) Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas on how to get around it? Kicking off another job after seeing this behavior works fine. The failures seem to be random or we haven't noticed a pattern yet.

When I try to post a LocationAnnotations of a subclass respect to the one defining variable sceneLocationView, by way of: sceneLocationView.addLocationNodeWithConfirmedLocation(locationNode: bannerAnnotationLocation) When I enter in: public func addLocationNodeWithConfirmedLocation(locationNode: LocationNode) { if locationNode.location == nil || locationNode.locationConfirmed == false { return } updatePositionAndScaleOfLocationNode(locationNode: locationNode, initialSetup: true, animated: true) locationNodes.append(locationNode) print(sceneNode?.description ?? "nil") self.sceneNode?.addChildNode(locationNode) } I find sceneNode to nil, like if the effect of the renderer is lost when subclassing. I also tried to create a new variable in the subclass also assigning SceneLocationView(), but sceneNode remains nil. What to do to force it to assume a value?

We've 10 CoreML models in our app, each encrypted with a separate key generated in XCode. After opening and closing the app 6-7 times, the app crashes at model initialization with error: 2021-04-21 13:52:47.711729+0300 MyApp[95443:7341643] Fatal error: 'try!' expression unexpectedly raised an error: Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Failed to generate key request for 08494FB2-B070-440F-A8A5-CBD0823A258E with error: -42905" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to generate key request for 08494FB2-B070-440F-A8A5-CBD0823A258E with error: -42905}: file MyApp/Model.swift, line 43 Looks like iPhone is blocking the app for suspicious behavior and the app fails to decrypt the model. We noticed that after ~10 hours the app is unlocked, it successfully decrypts and initializes the model. Opening and closing the app many times in a short period of time is indeed unnatural, but the most important question is how to avoid blocking? Would Apple block the app if a user opens and closes it 10 times during a day? How does the number of models in the app affect probability that the app will be blocked? Thanks!

Hi, I’m debugging an issue with AddressSanitizer (ASan) on macOS. I’ve noticed that strings placed in the __asan_cstring section are aligned and padded with redzones. When I attempt to copy a contiguous block of memory (e.g., memcpy(buf, asan_cstring, 4096)), ASan throws an out-of-bounds access error. On the other hand, strings in the __cstring section do not cause this problem, likely because they are laid out contiguously without redzone padding. Could you clarify: Are strings in __asan_cstring section aligned and padded individually with redzones? Is this redzone inserted after each global string for alignment or instrumentation purposes? Does this mean that bulk memory copies over this section (even if read-only) are inherently unsafe under ASan? Is there a recommended way to safely iterate or copy memory from __asan_cstring without triggering ASan violations? Any guidance on how redzones are managed in the __asan_cstring section would be very helpful.

I work on an SDK, and one of the ways we distribute it is as a pre-compiled static XCFramework. As far as I know, it’s the nature of a static framework to not contain symbols since the framework will be embedded in the final app binary, and the symbols should then be generated. However, when testing the "Validate" function of the Xcode 16 deployment process, our users are receiving a warning that says the framework does not contain symbols. Is my assumption about static frameworks and symbols incorrect? Could this be a bug in Xcode 16? Should we modify something in our framework to inform Xcode that symbols are not needed?

Hi everyone, I’m a student developer currently building a watchOS app that uses HealthKit and HKWorkoutSession to estimate core body temperature from real-time heart rate data. The app runs well in the simulator, but testing on a physical Apple Watch has been extremely difficult. Each time I try to run the app from Xcode (Version 16.3), the build gets stuck on: “Copying shared cache symbols from MyWatchName (0% completed)” Sometimes it just stops stating connection failure. However, more often no errors are shown, but the sync never finishes. I’ve tried the following without success: Restarting the watch, iPhone, and Xcode Switching networks (Wi-Fi and hotspot) USB wired pairing Resetting developer settings and trust prompts Deleting derived data Rebuilding the project This is especially limiting for a real-time health tracking app where I need to monitor HKLiveWorkoutBuilder data while the screen sleeps — which can’t be tested effectively in the simulator.

This is probably a silly question, but I couldn't find the answer to it in the forums or in the documentation, though I may be missing something. I currently have an app with a deployment target of iOS 16 and a watchOS app (not independent) with a deployment target of watchOS 7. I understand what happens when I change the deployment target on the iOS app (e.g., users with iOS/iPadOS versions less than 16 will just never see the updates in the App Store). But what happens if I change the deployment target of the watchOS dependent app to something like watchOS 8? Will users who have iOS 16 and watchOS 7 (iOS meets deployment target/watchOS does not) get the app update, and it'll just uninstall the watchOS app automatically? Will they just not see the update? Does the old version of the Watch app somehow stay on their watch while the iOS app gets updated?

When you try to reset settings through the Apple Vision Pro simulator (VisionOS 2.4) you get an error "Preferences quit unexpectedly". Bug report: FB17666053

I came across several "errors" being reported when I run my app, however my app seems to function correctly. I believe they fall in the category listed on this ( now locked ) thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/115461 However, I wanted to post the ones I found to clarify ( close to submission) just in case any of these end up being more than just log noise later. PLEASE let me know if you've come across these before and whether they impacted anything or if you can confirm they are just log noise.

When requesting authorisation to gain access to the user's microphone in the visionOS 2.4 simulator, the simulator crashes upon the user clicking allow. Using Swift 6, code below.

Hi, We are trying to use Apple Security API for KeyChain Services. The motive is to store some sensitive data in the KeyChain. Our app has Network extensions enabled which share a common app group and we want to access the data stored in the KeyChain from the extensions as well. Specifically we were exploring the SecItemAdd, SecItemCopyMatching etc family of APIs. We tried a few methods: Using the common App Group : Specifying the common app group in the "kSecAttrAccessGroup" field of the KeyChain query, allowed us to have a shared keychains for different apps (targets) in the app group, but this did not work for extensionsEnabling the KeyChain Sharing capability : We enabled the KeyChain Sharing Ability in the extensions and the app target as well, giving a common KeyChain Access group. Specifying this in the kSecAttrAccessGroup field also did not work.We tried specifying "$AppIdentifier.KeyChainSharingGroup" in the kSecAttrAccessGroup field , but this did not work as wellThe error code which we get in all these 3 cases when trying to access the Keychain from the extension is error code 25291 (errSecNotAvailable). The Documentation says this error comes when "No Trust Results are available" and printing the error in xcode using the status says "No keychain is available. You may need to restart your computer". The online Documentation says that it is possible to share keychain with extensions, but by far we are unable to do it with the methods suggested.Do we need any special entitlement for this or is there something we are missing while using these APIs?If this is possible Is there any internal/open source wrapper for Keychain APIs, that we can use?We will really appreciate help in solving this issue!Thanks!

I am on MacOs 15.4.1 which is being deployed with an old version of Ruby ruby 2.6.10 and bundler version 1.17.2. I ran pod install after generating the pods with these versions and during the application compilation there have been several issues reported against pods code.

The Files app in the iOS 18 beta simulator appears to be read-only. I am unable to: create folders copy files into it by dragging them from macOS safe files from safari I have been unsuccessful at finding a way to popular any file or folder in the Files app which is preventing me from testing some scenarios in my app where I import files using the files sheet. The earliest I tried was beta 3 and it still persists in beta 7. The iOS 17 simulator works fine in comparison. My mac is a 2019 macbook pro running Sonoma 14.5. To reproduce: New folder Launch Files app in iOS simulator Tap into "On my phone" From the top menu tap "New Folder" (nothing happens) Download a file Launch safari Find a file like a PDF to download Tap on the down arrow in the toolbar Files opens up with the filename in the textfield at the bottom The "Save" button is grayed out. Copy from macOS Open the Files app in iOS and browse to a local folder drag a file from the macbook onto the simulator the sheet appears with the filename in the text field The "Save" button is grayed out

Hi, I'm trying to plan some roadmaps out and also have some issues with ios 15.0. Since it's no longer supported by Apple, any word on if/when iOS 15.0 will be removed from the "minimum deployment" version list in Xcode?

Hello Team, I try to delete photo from Photos for that i used this method, [[PHPhotoLibrary sharedPhotoLibrary] performChanges:^{ [PHAssetChangeRequest deleteAssets:@[assetToDelete]]; completionHandler:^(BOOL success, NSError *error) { }]; This method pops up a dialog with Don't Allow or Delete. But some time in some iPhones not respond PHAssetChangeRequest deleteAssets method that's why that completionHandler not called because of that i can't perform any operation of PHPhotoLibrary then after. If I restart my iPhone then it works. Many users of my app complained about this issue. I have an iPhone 11 with iOS 15.3. But some iOS 12,14,16 users also face the same issue. So what exact issue is there? Is it related to iOS or a method? Thanks, Ankur
