Fetching the featured artists in a playlist, no longer works in iOS 26.1 beta let detailedPlaylist = try await playlist.with([.tracks, .featuredArtists], preferredSource: .library) Throws error when using .library and using .catalog returns empty array. This works correctly in iOS 26.0 and iOS 18 versions

Hi there, I recently launched a dj app to the mac app store, and was wondering how I could access raw data to songs from apple music just like how serato, rekordbox, djay, etc. do? Thanks, Gunek

Hello, I'm trying to write a shortcut using Toolbox Pro that gets triggered by an accessibility trigger and then favorites the currently playing song. It's working pretty well, but I noticed that for some artists, especially asian ones, it simply doesn't work. While debugging, I noticed that the tool uses the same song ID, artist ID, everything as it should to search for the song and favorite it. However, I noticed that Apple Music treats artists with romanized names as two separate artists! https://music.apple.com/br/artist/王菲/41760704 https://music.apple.com/br/artist/faye-wong/41760704?l=en-GB You can see that the ID is the same (41760704). It seems that, when I search for the artist, the first artist (王菲) returns, so that when I open URLs on the web for the artist I can see a star next to the song name, meaning that it got a like. However, the romanized artist (faye-wong) doesn't have a like on the same song. This is very weird, right?

With older iOS versions, when user taps Mute/Volume button on AVPLayerViewController to unmute, the system restores the sound volume of device to the level when user muted before. On iOS 26, when user taps unmute button on screen, the volume starts from 0 (not restore). (but it still restores if user unmutes by pressing physical volume buttons). As I understand, the Volume bar/button on AVPlayerViewController is MPVolumeView, and I can not control it. So this is a feature of the system. But I got complaints that this is a bug. I did not find documents that describe this change of Mute button behavior. I need some bases to explain this situation. Thank you.

part of the .swift file that controla the haptics buzz per each heart beat. however gives a 3-5 seconds delay between actual heart beat and watch haptic/buzz for that heart beat.

Hey Swift community! I'm exploring building a macOS app that needs to monitor what's currently playing in music apps like Spotify and Apple Music (track info, playback position, play/pause state). I'm trying to figure out the most efficient architecture before diving in. The Goal: Monitor playback state across multiple music players to react to changes in real-time, ideally with minimal CPU overhead since this would run continuously in the background. Approaches I'm Considering AppleScript / ScriptingBridge Distributed Notifications Native Frameworks (Apple Music only) What's the recommended way to do this on macOS? Are distributed notifications reliable enough to avoid polling entirely? Is there a performance difference between AppleScript and ScriptingBridge for IPC? For Apple Music specifically, should I use MusicKit, MediaPlayer, or stick with AppleScript? Are there other approaches I'm missing?

Hello, We are experiencing on some occasions a wrong behavior with PDFDocument method: func page(at index: Int) -> PDFPage? With certain PDF files, this method returns the wrong PDFPage. This occurs on iOS 18.3, 18.5 and 18.6.2 (an maybe on other versions). Try this PDF for instance (page 81 is returned when index = 2): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1MHm2wjfsbWB8OiRmARUMmvODYxp4DIqP&usp=drive_fs Also, I mention that this doesn't occur systematically with this PDF. When making a copy of this file we don't observe the issue. Could this be linked some kind of internal cache issue ?

Hi, We identified massive amounts of leaked memory with the tvOS 26 standard player user interface as soon as chapters (navigation markers) are involved. Artwork images associated with chapters are not correctly released anymore, leaking memory in chunks of several MiBs. Over time apps will be terminated by the system due to excessive memory consumption. The issue was reported to Apple as tvOS 26 regression: Huge memory leaks associated with navigation marker artworks displayed in the tvOS standard user interface, filed under FB21160665.

Hi team, In the Apple Music Feed datasets, we've noticed some unexpected values in the song and album tables. The primaryartists column from either song or album may contain a "non-default" artist name such as the katakana name shown in the example below: select id, name, namedefault, primaryartists from amf_song where id = '1698723329' id | name | namedefault | primaryartists ---------------------------------------- 1698723329 | {default=California} | California | [{id=1264818718, name=チャペル・ローン}] select * from amf_artist where id = '1264818718' id | name | namedefault | namepronunciation | ---------------------------------------------- 1264818718 | {default=Chappell Roan, ja=チャペル・ローン} | Chappell Roan | {ja=チャペルローン} | Shouldn't the primaryartists column be showing the namedefault instead of the Japanese language version? When can we expect this bug to resolved? Thanks,

Hi all, I've been working on some personal programming projects and have gotten into using the Apple Music API. I'm currently looking to get a list of recent songs using the /v1/me/recent/played/tracks endpoint and it's working well. However, I know there are some songs I've listened to multiple times in a row, and those are not showing up as unique tracks when querying this endpoint. I'm only seeing a list of the different songs I've listened to lately, not a true list of the most recent plays on my account. Is this intended behavior or am I going about something incorrectly here? My query is using that endpoint & specifying the types to be only [songs]. Thanks in advance for any ideas or insight.
