My project uses a local swift package of my own, which uses SwiftGenPlugin to generate image resources. I can archive the project locally, but Xcode Cloud doesn't work and reports an error: "SwiftGenPlugin" is disabled.

Until recently, it was possible to view the profiles of every user who posted in the forums. The profile page would then have links to posts/replies and other pages so that one could "follow" the recent comments by those users.
However, it appears that it no longer is possible to view a profile of individual "DTS Engineer". What I mean is I can no longer view their profile page and as a result the recent posts/replies that a specific "DTS Engineer" makes.
It's especially a loss because posts made by such engineers are very helpful and valuable and not being able to easily follow such posts on a single page makes the forum software less useful.
Is there a way the previous feature can be brought back?
Hello,
I've noticed that many people on the forum are experiencing issues enrolling in the Apple Developer Program. I’m facing the same problem—I can't complete my enrollment using my MacBook Pro. When I try to enroll through the Apple Developer app, I get an error saying, "Enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple ID."
So, I tried using Safari instead. I submitted all my personal information and credit card details and initiated the order. However, no transaction was processed from my bank account, and I received an email stating that I would be notified when my order and items are ready.
When I check the Apple Developer portal, my enrollment status is Pending, and I see a message prompting me to complete the purchase, as if I need to make a new payment. I don’t understand why Apple makes it so complicated just to subscribe to the Developer Program.
Why can’t I use my MacBook Pro for enrollment?
Why does the Developer portal ask me to complete the purchase even though I already submitted my payment details?
Why is the process so confusing?
Any help or clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hello Apple Developer Community,
I recently created a fresh project with:
No dependencies
No additional written code
After generating the iOS build, I navigated to the build folder:
cd build/ios/iphoneos/Runner.app
Then, I ran the following commands to inspect the binary:
otool -Iv Runner | grep -w _strlen
otool -Iv Runner | grep -w _malloc
Surprisingly, I received positive results, meaning these functions are present in the binary.
My Questions:
Why is a fresh Flutter project (with no extra dependencies) including these APIs in the binary?
in Project/Package Dependencies, some problem occurs while i add Exact Version value like '1.1.0-0fec058'. the finally value i input will be random updated to 1.0.0 or other value. Reproduce by input any version value like '1.2.0-"0"' which second part begin with 0. So bad experience.

Since yesterday, Xcode cloud no longer seems to be successful in building our workflows. We're relying on Xcode Cloud for our CI, and the downtime is hindering us greatly.
I've seen there is an issue on https://developer.apple.com/system-status/.
Any indication of progress on this issue would be appreciated.
I am currently developing a No-Sandbox application.
What I want to achieve is to use AuthorizationCopyRights in a No-Sandbox application to elevate to root, then register SMAppService.daemon after elevation, and finally call the registered daemon from within the No-Sandbox application.
Implementation Details
Here is the Plist that I am registering with SMAppService:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/usr/local/bin/test</string>
<string>login</string>
</array>
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</plist>
Code that successfully performs privilege escalation (a helper tool popup appears)
private func registerSMAppServiceDaemon() -> Bool {
let service = SMAppService.daemon(plistName: "com.example.plist")
do {
try service.register()
print("Successfully registered \(service)")
return true
} catch {
print("Unable to register \(error)")
return false
}
}
private func levelUpRoot() -> Bool {
var authRef: AuthorizationRef?
let status = AuthorizationCreate(nil, nil, [], &authRef)
if status != errAuthorizationSuccess {
return false
}
let rightName = kSMRightBlessPrivilegedHelper
return rightName.withCString { cStringName -> Bool in
var authItem = AuthorizationItem(
name: cStringName,
valueLength: 0,
value: nil,
flags: 0
)
return withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &authItem) { authItemPointer -> Bool in
var authRights = AuthorizationRights(count: 1, items: authItemPointer)
let authFlags: AuthorizationFlags = [.interactionAllowed, .preAuthorize, .extendRights]
let status = AuthorizationCopyRights(authRef!, &authRights, nil, authFlags, nil)
if status == errAuthorizationSuccess {
if !registerSMAppServiceDaemon() {
return false
}
return true
}
return false
}
}
}
Error Details
Unable to register Error Domain=SMAppServiceErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Operation not permitted}
The likely cause of this error is that /usr/local/bin/test is being bundled.
However, based on my understanding, since this is a non-sandboxed application, the binary should be accessible as long as it is run as root.
Trying
post as mentioned in the response, placing the test binary under Contents/Resources/ allows SMAppService to successfully register it. However, executing the binary results in a different error.
Here is the plist at that time.

Here is the function at that time.

Are there any other ways to execute a specific binary as root when using AuthorizationCopyRights?
For example, by preparing a Helper Tool?
How to prevent Xcode from repeatedly attempting to reinstall platform component support packages? Could this be related to certificate issues or assertion failures? etc
I'm experiencing an issue with Xcode 16 where code completion suggestions are not appearing while typing. I tried deleting UserDataDrive and restarting Xcode, but it didn't help. My machine has multiple user accounts, and we all use the same Xcode installation.
How can I fix this?
Hello Everyone, (and I hope folks at Apple are listening)
So around a year ago, I decided to take on the challenge of creating my own Iphone App from scratch. I am an engineer by trade, and thought it would be a fun interesting experience, and maybe make some money on the side. So I bought a macbook, and focused on learning Swift for the next few months.
Lots of really great developer folks helped me along the way. And I could not have been successful without so much help. It is very much appreciated. So I finished the app, created my own company. And deployed it to the Istore. Unfortunately, just no interest, I think I sold like 4 copies. No problem, still got to learn a lot along the way. So when it came time to renew my developer licence, I let it expire. Just did not make any sense to drop another $100 into it, since only 4 copies had sold in a year.
And then..... this happened!!!! I attempted to use the App that was installed on my own Iphone.... and got the message "My Apps Name" is no longer Available. and it stops... The code is on my phone. I am fully aware that I can no longer use xcode to put anything else on my iphone without a developer licence. But for Apple to reach into my own Iphone, and deny my access to something that I already created, (and in theory already paid for) is just infuriating!!! I checked, and even though it no longer exists in the IStore, purchased copies still seem to function. (one person that bought a copy was a friend of mine). So do I really need to drop another $100, puchase an actual copy of MY OWN APP from the app store, just to have it on my own phone again???!!! So much money and time went into this, that I am considering just smashing every apple product I own, and go with Android instead. I am a single person developer. Almost no one does this sort of thing anymore. Apple used to be the place where innovators could come to try to make something cool and fun to use. I guess not any more.

Hello everyone,
I need help with my Apple Developer Program enrollment, as I have been stuck in the processing stage since February 20 and I don’t know what else to do.
When I initially tried to enroll, I was told that the process would take two business days, but it has been much longer now. Every two days, I have attempted to purchase again, but I always receive the same message telling me to wait another two days.
I have checked my payment method, verified my Apple ID information, and followed all the recommended steps, but I still cannot complete the enrollment.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? What can I do to resolve it? I would appreciate any advice or guidance.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Didier Orjuela
After building the app and moving to the select for distribution, there is no option to submit to the app store
We are getting unreliable results on XCode Cloud tests. I'm not sure if it's related to the current service outage.
I'm running a very simple XCTest UI suite, on some devices it succeds and it others it fails to start. I'm not getting a userful error message.
MyApp-Runner encountered an error (Failed to prepare device 'iPhone 16 Pro Max' for impending launch. (Underlying Error: Unable to boot the Simulator. launchd failed to respond.

These specific error details are from the newest XCode-Beta, but the same issue persists with XCode.
Troubleshooting already performed:
I have tried uninstalling + reinstalling XCode and XCode-beta several times.
I have tried deleting ~/Libraries/Developer multiple times
I believe I am logged into XCode and OSX with my developer Apple account. Not sure how to verify if XCode is using this account during the download attempt.
I have tried reinstalling OSX. Previously it was stuck at 15.0.0, but reinstalling got the newest minor+revision version to 15.3.1.
I have followed the manual steps: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/downloading-and-installing-additional-xcode-components
I am able to manually download the components components from Apple Developer Downloads: https://developer.apple.com/download/all/ (The download works and is quick, so I don't believe this is a network issue)
There is PLENTY of drive space available (eg. 100s of GBs)
As this is a laptop, I tried disabling energy saving mode. It is running on AC power.
Additional Relevant facts:
Very strangely, I was able to download an iPhone 16e supplemental component
Network adapter: WiFi.
Internet connection: Comcast / XFinity cable
DNS resolver: tried using default for my network and tried switching to other public DNS including 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8
I tried looking in Settings > Privacy and Settings, Settings > Network for app-specific permissions / firewall settings, but I don't believe any are applied.
I'm not running sudo when I start up XCode.
Hey everyone. This is probably the last straw I am trying to pull since I tried almost everything else. I have applied for the Apple Developer Program and the whole process started at the end of 2024. I got rejected the first time because Apple could not charge my card. It was clearly shown that the cost is $99, however, it was 106.65 Euros (I created a Revolut card with the $100 because I don't trust placing my card everywhere).
I started the new process but this time I knew about the amount issue so I placed 150 Euros just to be safe. Automatic rejection with robotic AI response:
"For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time."
When I raised ticket about it I got no replies. Than both my friend and wife tried to apply for the program. Both rejected with the exact same messaging.
I created a new Apple ID, new card, new everything and did everything "by the book". Again. Rejection with the same exact messaging: For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time...
Can someone from Apple please tell me what are those reasons? I have been an Apple user for almost 10 years now. I was buying Apps from store. I am using iCloud+. Modest Citizen as some would say.
What's the problem? How can I finally get to Apple Developer Program without being rejected by AI or some poor auto system?
Unfortunately, for the past two months I've been trying to migrate to a company account.
The banking updates are stuck processing with this error message:
Apple Developer support tossed me around between 6 or 7 different representatives, each restarting the process of trying to figure out the problem, contacting the engineering team back and forth, and even remote controlling my screen to try and solve it, to no avail.
None of them know what is the issue. What do I do?
I added an AppIntent and Shortcut to an app. I have different targets all producing slightly different versions of the app (for testing purposes) but even though the files with the intents and shortcuts are included on all targets, when I run the app from one of the other targets the shortcuts stop working and appearing on the Shortcuts app.
Only the version without parameters appears and when run produces an error: “The action (name) could not run because an internal error occurred”
Is there anything I’m missing?
if I duplicate the target where they run ok, everything is fine (and I might just recreate all the targets)
thanks!

Dear Apple Developer Support,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out for guidance on a project that involves sharing heart rate data between an iOS app and an Android app. I have developed a watchOS app that continuously fetches heart rate data from an Apple Watch and displays it in a companion iOS app. Additionally, I have built an Android fitness app using Ionic Angular.
My goal is to create a bridge that allows the heart rate data from the iOS app to be displayed continuously in the Android app. I am considering using a backend server (e.g., Node.js) to facilitate this data transfer.
Could you please provide any insights or recommendations on the best approach for achieving this cross-platform data sharing? I would appreciate any guidance on potential challenges or limitations I might encounter.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
Venu Madhav
