ImageCreator fails with GenerationError Code=11 on Apple Intelligence-enabled device
When I ran the following code on a physical iPhone device that supports Apple Intelligence, I encountered the following error log. What does this internal error code mean? Image generation failed with NSError in a different domain: Error Domain=ImagePlaygroundInternal.ImageGeneration.GenerationError Code=11 “(null)”, returning a generic error instead let imageCreator = try await ImageCreator() let style = imageCreator.availableStyles.first ?? .animation let stream = imageCreator.images(for: [.text("cat")], style: style, limit: 1) for try await result in stream { // error: ImagePlayground.ImageCreator.Error.creationFailed _ = result.cgImage }

Sandbox restriction Error 159: Tap to Pay integration in iOS app
Hi all, I am hope someone could assist me with the below error if you ever ran into this during Tap-to-Pay functionality integration on iOS/iPadOS devices. Pre-condition: I have received required entitlements for the Tap-to-Pay integration and created Sandbox test account to validate my development work. Used updated development profile with the new capabilities required for the Integration. When i try to test my flow, i keep receiving this error, with multiple sandbox accounts in developer portal. Error (refreshContext): proxy error handler [ Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.merchantd.transaction was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.merchantd.transaction was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction.} ] I greatly appreciate if anyone faced this issue or any knowledge on how to address this error. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Govardhan.

Is there an API to check if a Core ML compiled model is already cached?
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm investigating Core ML model loading behavior and noticed that even when the compiled model path remains unchanged after an APP update, the first run still triggers an "uncached load" process. This seems to impact user experience with unnecessary delays. Question: Does Core ML provide any public API to check whether a compiled model (from a specific .mlmodelc path) is already cached in the system? If such API exists, we'd like to use it for pre-loading decision logic - only perform background pre-load when the model isn't cached. Has anyone encountered similar scenarios or found official solutions? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

UIWindow makeKeyAndVisible crash
In our app, there is a UIWindow makeKeyAndVisible crash, and for now, it appears once, crash stack: the crash detail: crash.txt in the RCWindowSceneManager class's makeWindowKeyAndVisible method, we check and set a window's windowScene and makeKeyAndVisible: public func makeWindowKeyAndVisible(_ window: UIWindow?) { guard let window else { return } if let currentWindowScene { if window.windowScene == nil || window.windowScene != currentWindowScene { window.windowScene = currentWindowScene } window.makeKeyAndVisible() } } and I set a break point at a normal no crash flow, the stack is: why it crash? and how we avoid this, thank you.

Strange network information values ​​in response to DeviceInformation command on iPad
I am checking the response of DeviceInformation Command to collect network information from iPad. On iPad(iPad Pro 11, M4) devices that use WiFi without inserting Usim or Esim, network values ​​such as CurrentMCC and ICCID are received in response to the DeviceInformation command. cf.)Even though it may be garbage value, I blurred the unique information just in case. <key>ServiceSubscriptions</key> <array> <dict> <key>CarrierSettingsVersion</key> <string>61.0</string> <key>CurrentCarrierNetwork</key> <string></string> <key>CurrentMCC</key> <string>450</string> <key>CurrentMNC</key> <string>08</string> <key>EID</key> <string>blah blah</string> <key>ICCID</key> <string>blah balh</string> <key>IMEI</key> <string>blah blah</string> <key>IsDataPreferred</key> <true/> <key>IsRoaming</key> <true/> <key>IsVoicePreferred</key> <false/> <key>Label</key> <string>Provisioning</string> <key>LabelID</key> <string>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</string> <key>PhoneNumber</key> <string></string> <key>Slot</key> <string>CTSubscriptionSlotOne</string> <key>SubscriberCarrierNetwork</key> <string>iPad</string> </dict> </array> This is a bit weird. If I collect the same information from an iPhone(iPhone 15 Pro Max) that only uses wifi and does not use Usim or Esim, it does not respond with values ​​like ICCID, CurrentMCC, etc. <key>ServiceSubscriptions</key> <array> <dict> <key>IMEI</key> <string>blah blah</string> <key>Slot</key> <string>CTSubscriptionSlotOne</string> </dict> <dict> <key>EID</key> <string>blah blah</string> <key>IMEI</key> <string>blah blah</string> <key>Slot</key> <string>CTSubscriptionSlotTwo</string> </dict> </array> I'm confused by the network information collected. Is there a reason why the collected network information of iPad and iPhone are different?

UISegmentedControl tap position misalignment in Xcode 26 with UIDesignRequiresCompatibility enabled
Environment macOS 15.7.3 Xcode 26.1.1 / 26.2 iOS 18.5 / 26.2 iPhone 16 Pro Simulator and physical device Problem Description When tapping an unselected UISegmentedControl, the selected segment does not match the tapped position. Specifically, tapping the rightmost segment (index: 3) results in the leftmost segment (index: 0) being selected instead. Conditions for Reproduction This issue occurs when all of the following conditions are met: Built with Xcode 26.x UIDesignRequiresCompatibility is set to YES in Info.plist UISegmentedControl is positioned using Auto Layout with leading alignment Segments are added dynamically using insertSegment(withTitle:at:animated:) Note: The issue does not occur when segments are defined statically in Storyboard. Steps to Reproduce Create a subclass of UISegmentedControl that dynamically sets segments: class CustomSegmentedControl: UISegmentedControl { func setSegments(titles: [String]) { removeAllSegments() titles.forEach { title in insertSegment(withTitle: title, at: numberOfSegments, animated: false) } } } In the ViewController, configure the control: override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() segmentedControl.setSegments(titles: ["Item A", "Item B", "Item C", "Item D"]) segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = UISegmentedControl.noSegment } Set UIDesignRequiresCompatibility to YES in Info.plist: <key>UIDesignRequiresCompatibility</key> <true/> Run the app and tap the rightmost segment ("Item D") Expected vs Actual Behavior Expected Actual Tap rightmost segment "Item D" (index: 3) is selected "Item A" (index: 0) is selected What I Tried (Did Not Work) Calling layoutIfNeeded() after adding segments: segmentedControl.setSegments(titles: ["Item A", "Item B", "Item C", "Item D"]) segmentedControl.layoutIfNeeded() // No effect Workarounds Set UIDesignRequiresCompatibility to NO (enables Liquid Glass design) Define segments statically in Storyboard instead of dynamically Sample Project Minimal reproduction project is available here: https://github.com/CH3COOH/Samples/tree/master/SampleSelectSegmentedControl Feedback Assistant This issue has been reported via Feedback Assistant: FB21712773 Has anyone else encountered this issue or found alternative workarounds?

NSTextLists not rendered when NSTextContentStorageDelegate textContentStorage (_:, textParagraphWith:) is implemented
I have a UITextView that contains paragraphs with text bullet lists (via NSTextList). I also implement NSTextContentStorageDelegate.textContentStorage(_:, textParagraphWith:) in order to apply some custom attributes to the text without affecting the underlying attributed text. My implementation returns a new NSParagraph that modifies the foreground color of the text. I based this on the example in the WWDC 21 session "Meet Text Kit 2". UITextView stops rendering the bullets when I implement the delegate function and return a custom paragraph. Why? func textContentStorage(_ textContentStorage: NSTextContentStorage, textParagraphWith range: NSRange) -> NSTextParagraph? { guard let originalText = textContentStorage.textStorage?.attributedSubstring(from: range) else { return nil } let updatedText = NSMutableAttributedString(attributedString: originalText) updatedText.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.green, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: updatedText.length)) let paragraph = NSTextParagraph(attributedString: updatedText) // Verify that the text still contains NSTextList if let paragraphStyle = paragraph.attributedString.attribute(.paragraphStyle, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? NSParagraphStyle { assert(!paragraphStyle.textLists.isEmpty) } else { assertionFailure("Paragraph has lost its text lists") } return paragraph }

Understanding Battery Usage Percentage Calculation in iOS 26
Hello, I have a question regarding the new battery usage interface in iOS 26. As shown in the attached screenshot, the system displays battery usage per app as a percentage (%). I’m curious about how this percentage is calculated. From what I can tell, it doesn’t seem to reflect the actual battery consumption per process, excluding the device’s base standby power. It rather appears to be calculated as a relative percentage based on total battery drain, possibly including system idle power. Is there any way to understand or estimate the actual battery usage per app, excluding the device’s inherent standby power consumption? Thank you.

UIViewController memory leak with modal presentedViewController
Hi everyone, I'm encountering an unexpected behavior with modal presentations in UIKit. Here’s what happens: I have UIViewControllerA (let’s call it the "orange" VC) pushed onto a UINavigationController stack. I present UIViewControllerB (the "red" VC, inside its own UINavigationController as a .formSheet) modally over UIViewControllerA. After a short delay, I pop UIViewControllerA from the navigation stack. Issue: After popping UIViewControllerA, the modal UIViewControllerB remains visible on the screen and in memory. I expected that dismissing (popping) the presenting view controller would also dismiss the modal, but it stays. Expected Behavior: When UIViewControllerA (orange) is popped, I expect the modal UIViewControllerB (red) to be dismissed as well. Actual Behavior: The modal UIViewControllerB remains on screen and is not dismissed, even though its presenting view controller has been removed from the navigation stack. Video example: https://youtube.com/shorts/sttbd6p_r_c Question: Is this the expected behavior? If so, what is the recommended way to ensure that the modal is dismissed when its presenting view controller is removed from the navigation stack? Code snippet: class MainVC: UIViewController { private weak var orangeVC: UIViewController? override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.view.backgroundColor = .blue let dq = DispatchQueue.main dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in let vc1 = UIViewController() vc1.view.backgroundColor = .orange vc1.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext self?.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc1, animated: true) self?.orangeVC = vc1 dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in let vc2 = UIViewController() vc2.view.backgroundColor = .red vc2.modalPresentationStyle = .formSheet vc2.isModalInPresentation = true let nav = UINavigationController(rootViewController: vc2) if let sheet = nav.sheetPresentationController { sheet.detents = [.medium()] } self?.orangeVC?.present(nav, animated: true) dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in self?.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true) } } } } } Thank you for your help!

NEURLFilter production build fails with _NSURLErrorPrivacyProxyFailureKey — how to provision OHTTP privacy proxy for bundle?
Summary I'm implementing NEURLFilter with the com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension.url-filter-provider entitlement for a system-wide URL filtering feature. The feature works perfectly in development-signed builds (connecting successfully to my PIR server over extended testing) but every production-signed build fails before any network call is made. NEURLFilterManager reports .serverSetupIncomplete (code 9). After installing the NetworkExtension debug profile, the unredacted com.apple.CipherML logs reveal the cause: no privacy proxy is provisioned for this bundle identifier, and the connection is configured proxy fail closed. Environment iOS 26 Entitlement: com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension.url-filter-provider Extension point: com.apple.networkextension.url-filter-control PIR server configured via NEURLFilterManager.setConfiguration(...) Privacy Pass issuer configured Dev-signed builds: working correctly, connecting to the PIR server Production-signed builds (both TestFlight and distribution): failing identically The Error Chain Surfaced to the app via NEURLFilterManager.lastDisconnectError: NEURLFilterManager.Error.serverSetupIncomplete (code 9) ← NEAgentURLFilterErrorDomain Code 3 ← com.apple.CipherML Code 1100 "Unable to query status" ← com.apple.CipherML Code 1800 (error details were logged and redacted) After installing the VPN (NetworkExtension) debug profile, the unredacted com.apple.CipherML subsystem shows: queryStatus(for:options:) threw an error: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1009 "The Internet connection appears to be offline." UserInfo={ _NSURLErrorNWPathKey = satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, dns, uses wifi, LQM: good, NSErrorFailingURLKey = https://<my-pir-server>/config, NSUnderlyingError = { Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=50 "Network is down" }, _NSURLErrorPrivacyProxyFailureKey = true, NSLocalizedDescription = "The Internet connection appears to be offline." } The critical diagnostic line in the com.apple.network subsystem is: nw_endpoint_proxy_handler_should_use_proxy Proxies not present, but required to fail closed And the connection setup shows the proxy fail closed flag is mandatory for the connection: [C... ... Hostname#...:443 quic, bundle id: <my-bundle-id>, attribution: developer, using ephemeral configuration, context: NWURLSession (sensitive), proxy fail closed] start The network path itself is healthy (Wi-Fi good, DNS resolves correctly), but the connection is explicitly configured to fail closed if no proxy is present, and no proxy is provisioned for this bundle identifier. The entire failure happens in approximately 18 ms, far too fast for any network round-trip, confirming no traffic ever leaves the device. What I've Verified The entitlement is present in the distribution build The NEURLFilterControlProvider extension loads and returns a valid Bloom filter prefilter (with a tag that round-trips correctly between extension and framework) NEURLFilterManager.setConfiguration(pirServerURL:pirPrivacyPassIssuerURL:pirAuthenticationToken:controlProviderBundleIdentifier:) accepts all four parameters without error Development-signed builds of the same bundle identifier connect successfully to the same PIR server On production-signed builds, zero requests reach the PIR server — failure is purely client-side, before any network activity The Question How does the OHTTP privacy proxy get provisioned for a bundle identifier so that production builds can successfully use NEURLFilter? Specifically: Is there a Capability Request form I need to submit for url-filter-provider? I cannot find one in the Capability Requests section of my developer portal. Should I be running my own OHTTP gateway (for example using swift-nio-oblivious-http), and if so, does Apple then need to provision routing from their OHTTP relay to my gateway URL? Is the OHTTP relay path meant to be automatic once the entitlement is active, and if so, is there a specific activation step I'm missing? Is there any way to verify the current provisioning state for a specific bundle identifier from the developer portal? I can provide the full sysdiagnose and unredacted bundle/server details privately to an Apple engineer if that would help diagnose. I'd prefer to keep them out of a public post. Thanks!

Search Bar Should Be at the Top (Consistency Matters)
In iOS 18 betas, the App Store search bar has been moved to the bottom of the screen. This breaks years of usability and is inconsistent with Apple’s own apps—Calendar, Reminders, Maps, Safari, Files, Wallet, and Shortcuts—all of which keep search at the top. I (and many others) hold the phone in one hand and tap with the other. Top placement is faster, more natural, and aligns with established Apple design. The “thumb reach” argument does not fit real-world usage for a large portion of users. What I want is consistency across all Apple apps: put the search bar at the top everywhere. Apple already made this mistake with Safari’s bottom address bar in iOS 15 and had to add a toggle after backlash. Please don’t repeat history. Feedback ID: FB19598638 If you agree, please follow your own feedback and reference this thread. The more reports Apple sees, the more likely this gets fixed.

iOS App Store Tester Facing Network Timeouts since iOS 26?
Our iOS/iPad app is built with React Native. We use Axios as our HTTP client. Our app has been out on the app store for 2+ years and we've never had issues with reviews. Since iOS 26 came out, our app has been constantly getting rejected because the Apple tester keeps facing network timeout issues when our app makes requests to our API services. Our API stack is already configured to support IPv6 networks, and our regular user base does not run into the issues the Apple tester is seeing. None of our developers nor our internal testers have been able to reproduce the issue the Apple tester is facing. We've tried a number of things to debug the potential issue: Added a ping check on app startup. We used the native fetch present in React Native apps as well as our Axios client (with the default XHR/HTTP adapter). None of the pings make it to our API services. Added higher timeouts on app startup to let the Apple tester have more time to reach our services while their simulator device is able to connect. We've read that the environment that Apple testers use can sometimes take longer to establish an initial connection, even though packages like NetInfo from React Native report that they are connected to WiFi as soon as the app starts. Switched our Axios client adapter to use the native fetch. We did this since we noticed that Mixpanel, our tracking library, uses the native fetch in their React Native SDK and we've confirmed that requests on their end do make it through when the Apple tester is testing our app. We're running out of ideas since the issue is pretty obscure and we haven't been able to reproduce it yet, not even by following the Apple guide to set up a local IPv6 NAT64 network to be as close to their environment as possible. We've also tried testing the app while connected to VPNs from different locations to no avail. Like I said before, we noticed that this issues started for the Apple tester with the release of iOS 26, so we're wondering if there are known issues in the community that might relate to what we're experiencing. The most recent finding we've made is that some other developers report new issues with HTTP 3/QUIC on iOS. We've seen recommendations about turning off explicit support for HTTP 3 on our services, which seems to have helped other developers.

2 Apps Stuck in "Waiting for Review" (6 & 23+ Days) — Expedited Review Approved but No Movement (2026)
Hello iOS Developer Community, I have two apps stuck in "Waiting for Review" and would appreciate any advice from developers who have faced a similar situation. 📱 App 1 — BookAstors (User App) Submission ID: 33bc446c-42aa-425d-9eba-2b79e88e9c9f Version: iOS 1.0.4 (Build 15) Date Submitted: March 17, 2026 Waiting since: 6+ days 📱 App 2 — Admin BookAstors (Admin Panel) Submission ID: c8af128f-0666-492a-bd88-3a2cad64d74c Version: iOS 1.0.5 (Build 8) Date Submitted: February 28, 2026 Waiting since: 23+ days Both apps are live on the App Store with an active user base. These updates contain critical bug fixes that our users and business operators are waiting on. The delay is directly impacting user experience and platform operations. I submitted an Expedited Review Request for both apps and received Apple's confirmation: "We'll expedite review for BookAstors / Admin BookAstors." However, even after the expedited request was accepted, neither app has moved from "Waiting for Review" to "In Review". Has anyone experienced such long delays in 2026 even after an expedited review was approved? How long did it eventually take to move forward? Any advice or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Setu Hariyani

Unable to change codesign page size during xcodebuild export
We've noticed, that size of our ipa started to vary from time to time. We've found that all the difference was in the LC_CODE_SIGNATURE command under the _LINKEDIT segment of binary. The main reason of that change was the different number of hash slots due to different value of page size: 4096 on macOS SEQUOIA and 16384 on macOS TAHOE. So the size of the final binary was dependent on the machine, it was produced on. I didn't find out any information on why the default page size changed on TAHOE. Apple’s codesign supports a --pagesize argument. For regular builds that setting can be passed via OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS=--pagesize 16384. But it seems that xcodebuild export ...` completely ignores it: i've tried to pass invalid size (not the power of two), and the export still succeded. I've also managed to get xcodebuild logs via log stream --style compact --predicate 'process == "xcodebuild" OR process == "codesign"' --level trace They have no occurrences of --pagesize: 2026-03-24 13:43:27.236 Df xcodebuild[93993:a08c53] [IDEDistributionPipeline:verbose] invoking codesign: <NSConcreteTask: 0x8a1b21bd0; launchPath='/usr/bin/codesign', arguments='( "-f", "-s", 8C38C4A2CB0388A3DB6BAEFE438F20E044EE6CB2, "--entitlements", "/var/folders/w_/5t00sclx2vlcm4_fvly7wvh00000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~T3Dcdf/entitlements~~~c2srXx", "--preserve-metadata=identifier,flags,runtime,launch-constraints,library-constraints", "--generate-entitlement-der", "--strip-disallowed-xattrs", "-vvv", "/var/folders/w_/5t00sclx2vlcm4_fvly7wvh00000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~T3Dcdf/Root/Payload/App.app/Frameworks/FLEXWrapper.framework" )'> So here I have some questions: How is the default page size selected? Why the default page size may change between SEQUOIA and TAHOE? How to provide page size to xcodebuild's export or it's a bug that it doesn't look at the value of OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS?

Steps to Reproduce Create a subclass of UISegmentedControl that dynamically sets segments: class CustomSegmentedControl: UISegmentedControl { func setSegments(titles: [String]) { removeAllSegments() titles.forEach { title in insertSegment(withTitle: title, at: numberOfSegments, animated: false) } } } In the ViewController, configure the control: override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() segmentedControl.setSegments(titles: ["Item A", "Item B", "Item C", "Item D"]) segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = UISegmentedControl.noSegment } Set UIDesignRequiresCompatibility to YES in Info.plist: <key>UIDesignRequiresCompatibility</key> <true/> Run the app and tap the rightmost segment ("Item D") Expected vs Actual Behavior Expected Actual Tap rightmost segment "Item D" (index: 3) is selected "Item A" (index: 0) is selected What I Tried (Did Not Work) Calling layoutIfNeeded() after adding segments: segmentedControl.setSegments(titles: ["Item A", "Item B", "Item C", "Item D"]) segmentedControl.layoutIfNeeded() // No effect Workarounds Set UIDesignRequiresCompatibility to NO (enables Liquid Glass design) Define segments statically in Storyboard instead of dynamically Sample Project Minimal reproduction project is available here: https://github.com/CH3COOH/Samples/tree/master/SampleSelectSegmentedControl Feedback Assistant This issue has been reported via Feedback Assistant: FB21712773 Has anyone else encountered this issue or found alternative workarounds?

NSTextLists not rendered when NSTextContentStorageDelegate textContentStorage (_:, textParagraphWith:) is implemented
I have a UITextView that contains paragraphs with text bullet lists (via NSTextList). I also implement NSTextContentStorageDelegate.textContentStorage(_:, textParagraphWith:) in order to apply some custom attributes to the text without affecting the underlying attributed text. My implementation returns a new NSParagraph that modifies the foreground color of the text. I based this on the example in the WWDC 21 session "Meet Text Kit 2". UITextView stops rendering the bullets when I implement the delegate function and return a custom paragraph. Why? func textContentStorage(_ textContentStorage: NSTextContentStorage, textParagraphWith range: NSRange) -> NSTextParagraph? { guard let originalText = textContentStorage.textStorage?.attributedSubstring(from: range) else { return nil } let updatedText = NSMutableAttributedString(attributedString: originalText) updatedText.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.green, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: updatedText.length)) let paragraph = NSTextParagraph(attributedString: updatedText) // Verify that the text still contains NSTextList if let paragraphStyle = paragraph.attributedString.attribute(.paragraphStyle, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? NSParagraphStyle { assert(!paragraphStyle.textLists.isEmpty) } else { assertionFailure("Paragraph has lost its text lists") } return paragraph }

App is moving to Background when user rejected the GSM cellular call.
Application is in foreground state, When a user receives a cellular call and it is in the "ringing" state and application receives a VoIP APNS(video call) which is reported to CallKit. User rejects the Cellular call from CallKit UI, application Video call is also getting rejected (separate feedback - 19017978) and Here the issue is observed that an Application moved to background. Issue is not observed in iOS 18 and older versions. Issue observed only with UISceneDelegate changes. Using traditional UIApplicationDelegate doesn't have the issues. Video and Sysdiagnose logs are added in feedback: FB20187309

Understanding Battery Usage Percentage Calculation in iOS 26
Hello, I have a question regarding the new battery usage interface in iOS 26. As shown in the attached screenshot, the system displays battery usage per app as a percentage (%). I’m curious about how this percentage is calculated. From what I can tell, it doesn’t seem to reflect the actual battery consumption per process, excluding the device’s base standby power. It rather appears to be calculated as a relative percentage based on total battery drain, possibly including system idle power. Is there any way to understand or estimate the actual battery usage per app, excluding the device’s inherent standby power consumption? Thank you.

UIViewController memory leak with modal presentedViewController
Hi everyone, I'm encountering an unexpected behavior with modal presentations in UIKit. Here’s what happens: I have UIViewControllerA (let’s call it the "orange" VC) pushed onto a UINavigationController stack. I present UIViewControllerB (the "red" VC, inside its own UINavigationController as a .formSheet) modally over UIViewControllerA. After a short delay, I pop UIViewControllerA from the navigation stack. Issue: After popping UIViewControllerA, the modal UIViewControllerB remains visible on the screen and in memory. I expected that dismissing (popping) the presenting view controller would also dismiss the modal, but it stays. Expected Behavior: When UIViewControllerA (orange) is popped, I expect the modal UIViewControllerB (red) to be dismissed as well. Actual Behavior: The modal UIViewControllerB remains on screen and is not dismissed, even though its presenting view controller has been removed from the navigation stack. Video example: https://youtube.com/shorts/sttbd6p_r_c Question: Is this the expected behavior? If so, what is the recommended way to ensure that the modal is dismissed when its presenting view controller is removed from the navigation stack? Code snippet: class MainVC: UIViewController { private weak var orangeVC: UIViewController? override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.view.backgroundColor = .blue let dq = DispatchQueue.main dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in let vc1 = UIViewController() vc1.view.backgroundColor = .orange vc1.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext self?.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc1, animated: true) self?.orangeVC = vc1 dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in let vc2 = UIViewController() vc2.view.backgroundColor = .red vc2.modalPresentationStyle = .formSheet vc2.isModalInPresentation = true let nav = UINavigationController(rootViewController: vc2) if let sheet = nav.sheetPresentationController { sheet.detents = [.medium()] } self?.orangeVC?.present(nav, animated: true) dq.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [weak self] in self?.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true) } } } } } Thank you for your help!

Clarification Needed: Using action=write-review outside of the app
Hello, is it allowed to include the action=write-review URL parameter in customer support emails to direct users to the App Store review page? Example: https://apps.apple.com/app/id[APP_ID]?action=write-review I want to make it easy for customers to leave feedback after positive support interactions, but only if it's compliant.

NEURLFilter production build fails with _NSURLErrorPrivacyProxyFailureKey — how to provision OHTTP privacy proxy for bundle?
Summary I'm implementing NEURLFilter with the com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension.url-filter-provider entitlement for a system-wide URL filtering feature. The feature works perfectly in development-signed builds (connecting successfully to my PIR server over extended testing) but every production-signed build fails before any network call is made. NEURLFilterManager reports .serverSetupIncomplete (code 9). After installing the NetworkExtension debug profile, the unredacted com.apple.CipherML logs reveal the cause: no privacy proxy is provisioned for this bundle identifier, and the connection is configured proxy fail closed. Environment iOS 26 Entitlement: com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension.url-filter-provider Extension point: com.apple.networkextension.url-filter-control PIR server configured via NEURLFilterManager.setConfiguration(...) Privacy Pass issuer configured Dev-signed builds: working correctly, connecting to the PIR server Production-signed builds (both TestFlight and distribution): failing identically The Error Chain Surfaced to the app via NEURLFilterManager.lastDisconnectError: NEURLFilterManager.Error.serverSetupIncomplete (code 9) ← NEAgentURLFilterErrorDomain Code 3 ← com.apple.CipherML Code 1100 "Unable to query status" ← com.apple.CipherML Code 1800 (error details were logged and redacted) After installing the VPN (NetworkExtension) debug profile, the unredacted com.apple.CipherML subsystem shows: queryStatus(for:options:) threw an error: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1009 "The Internet connection appears to be offline." UserInfo={ _NSURLErrorNWPathKey = satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, dns, uses wifi, LQM: good, NSErrorFailingURLKey = https://<my-pir-server>/config, NSUnderlyingError = { Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=50 "Network is down" }, _NSURLErrorPrivacyProxyFailureKey = true, NSLocalizedDescription = "The Internet connection appears to be offline." } The critical diagnostic line in the com.apple.network subsystem is: nw_endpoint_proxy_handler_should_use_proxy Proxies not present, but required to fail closed And the connection setup shows the proxy fail closed flag is mandatory for the connection: [C... ... Hostname#...:443 quic, bundle id: <my-bundle-id>, attribution: developer, using ephemeral configuration, context: NWURLSession (sensitive), proxy fail closed] start The network path itself is healthy (Wi-Fi good, DNS resolves correctly), but the connection is explicitly configured to fail closed if no proxy is present, and no proxy is provisioned for this bundle identifier. The entire failure happens in approximately 18 ms, far too fast for any network round-trip, confirming no traffic ever leaves the device. What I've Verified The entitlement is present in the distribution build The NEURLFilterControlProvider extension loads and returns a valid Bloom filter prefilter (with a tag that round-trips correctly between extension and framework) NEURLFilterManager.setConfiguration(pirServerURL:pirPrivacyPassIssuerURL:pirAuthenticationToken:controlProviderBundleIdentifier:) accepts all four parameters without error Development-signed builds of the same bundle identifier connect successfully to the same PIR server On production-signed builds, zero requests reach the PIR server — failure is purely client-side, before any network activity The Question How does the OHTTP privacy proxy get provisioned for a bundle identifier so that production builds can successfully use NEURLFilter? Specifically: Is there a Capability Request form I need to submit for url-filter-provider? I cannot find one in the Capability Requests section of my developer portal. Should I be running my own OHTTP gateway (for example using swift-nio-oblivious-http), and if so, does Apple then need to provision routing from their OHTTP relay to my gateway URL? Is the OHTTP relay path meant to be automatic once the entitlement is active, and if so, is there a specific activation step I'm missing? Is there any way to verify the current provisioning state for a specific bundle identifier from the developer portal? I can provide the full sysdiagnose and unredacted bundle/server details privately to an Apple engineer if that would help diagnose. I'd prefer to keep them out of a public post. Thanks!

Search Bar Should Be at the Top (Consistency Matters)
In iOS 18 betas, the App Store search bar has been moved to the bottom of the screen. This breaks years of usability and is inconsistent with Apple’s own apps—Calendar, Reminders, Maps, Safari, Files, Wallet, and Shortcuts—all of which keep search at the top. I (and many others) hold the phone in one hand and tap with the other. Top placement is faster, more natural, and aligns with established Apple design. The “thumb reach” argument does not fit real-world usage for a large portion of users. What I want is consistency across all Apple apps: put the search bar at the top everywhere. Apple already made this mistake with Safari’s bottom address bar in iOS 15 and had to add a toggle after backlash. Please don’t repeat history. Feedback ID: FB19598638 If you agree, please follow your own feedback and reference this thread. The more reports Apple sees, the more likely this gets fixed.

iOS App Store Tester Facing Network Timeouts since iOS 26?
Our iOS/iPad app is built with React Native. We use Axios as our HTTP client. Our app has been out on the app store for 2+ years and we've never had issues with reviews. Since iOS 26 came out, our app has been constantly getting rejected because the Apple tester keeps facing network timeout issues when our app makes requests to our API services. Our API stack is already configured to support IPv6 networks, and our regular user base does not run into the issues the Apple tester is seeing. None of our developers nor our internal testers have been able to reproduce the issue the Apple tester is facing. We've tried a number of things to debug the potential issue: Added a ping check on app startup. We used the native fetch present in React Native apps as well as our Axios client (with the default XHR/HTTP adapter). None of the pings make it to our API services. Added higher timeouts on app startup to let the Apple tester have more time to reach our services while their simulator device is able to connect. We've read that the environment that Apple testers use can sometimes take longer to establish an initial connection, even though packages like NetInfo from React Native report that they are connected to WiFi as soon as the app starts. Switched our Axios client adapter to use the native fetch. We did this since we noticed that Mixpanel, our tracking library, uses the native fetch in their React Native SDK and we've confirmed that requests on their end do make it through when the Apple tester is testing our app. We're running out of ideas since the issue is pretty obscure and we haven't been able to reproduce it yet, not even by following the Apple guide to set up a local IPv6 NAT64 network to be as close to their environment as possible. We've also tried testing the app while connected to VPNs from different locations to no avail. Like I said before, we noticed that this issues started for the Apple tester with the release of iOS 26, so we're wondering if there are known issues in the community that might relate to what we're experiencing. The most recent finding we've made is that some other developers report new issues with HTTP 3/QUIC on iOS. We've seen recommendations about turning off explicit support for HTTP 3 on our services, which seems to have helped other developers.

2 Apps Stuck in "Waiting for Review" (6 & 23+ Days) — Expedited Review Approved but No Movement (2026)
Hello iOS Developer Community, I have two apps stuck in "Waiting for Review" and would appreciate any advice from developers who have faced a similar situation. 📱 App 1 — BookAstors (User App) Submission ID: 33bc446c-42aa-425d-9eba-2b79e88e9c9f Version: iOS 1.0.4 (Build 15) Date Submitted: March 17, 2026 Waiting since: 6+ days 📱 App 2 — Admin BookAstors (Admin Panel) Submission ID: c8af128f-0666-492a-bd88-3a2cad64d74c Version: iOS 1.0.5 (Build 8) Date Submitted: February 28, 2026 Waiting since: 23+ days Both apps are live on the App Store with an active user base. These updates contain critical bug fixes that our users and business operators are waiting on. The delay is directly impacting user experience and platform operations. I submitted an Expedited Review Request for both apps and received Apple's confirmation: "We'll expedite review for BookAstors / Admin BookAstors." However, even after the expedited request was accepted, neither app has moved from "Waiting for Review" to "In Review". Has anyone experienced such long delays in 2026 even after an expedited review was approved? How long did it eventually take to move forward? Any advice or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Setu Hariyani

Restoring most recent document at cold start in DocumentGroup iOS app?
I've tried everything I can to restore the most recent document at cold start in my DocumentGroup iOS app. Q1. I believe it's not possible, but I would be happy to be proven wrong? Q2. Why is this not possible? My users who only edit one document find it quite annoying to have to select it so frequently.

Unable to change codesign page size during xcodebuild export
We've noticed, that size of our ipa started to vary from time to time. We've found that all the difference was in the LC_CODE_SIGNATURE command under the _LINKEDIT segment of binary. The main reason of that change was the different number of hash slots due to different value of page size: 4096 on macOS SEQUOIA and 16384 on macOS TAHOE. So the size of the final binary was dependent on the machine, it was produced on. I didn't find out any information on why the default page size changed on TAHOE. Apple’s codesign supports a --pagesize argument. For regular builds that setting can be passed via OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS=--pagesize 16384. But it seems that xcodebuild export ...` completely ignores it: i've tried to pass invalid size (not the power of two), and the export still succeded. I've also managed to get xcodebuild logs via log stream --style compact --predicate 'process == "xcodebuild" OR process == "codesign"' --level trace They have no occurrences of --pagesize: 2026-03-24 13:43:27.236 Df xcodebuild[93993:a08c53] [IDEDistributionPipeline:verbose] invoking codesign: <NSConcreteTask: 0x8a1b21bd0; launchPath='/usr/bin/codesign', arguments='( "-f", "-s", 8C38C4A2CB0388A3DB6BAEFE438F20E044EE6CB2, "--entitlements", "/var/folders/w_/5t00sclx2vlcm4_fvly7wvh00000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~T3Dcdf/entitlements~~~c2srXx", "--preserve-metadata=identifier,flags,runtime,launch-constraints,library-constraints", "--generate-entitlement-der", "--strip-disallowed-xattrs", "-vvv", "/var/folders/w_/5t00sclx2vlcm4_fvly7wvh00000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~T3Dcdf/Root/Payload/App.app/Frameworks/FLEXWrapper.framework" )'> So here I have some questions: How is the default page size selected? Why the default page size may change between SEQUOIA and TAHOE? How to provide page size to xcodebuild's export or it's a bug that it doesn't look at the value of OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS?
