Overview

I successfully archive my app but when I try and distribute it via XCode I get this error: But I do have that permission. I tried signout and sign in on XCode but still same error. Help!

Hello, I am experiencing an issue with TestFlight that I have not been able to resolve. Problem description One day, I suddenly became unable to update our app from TestFlight using my tester account. Assuming it might be a permission issue, I removed my tester access for the app and then re-invited the same Apple ID. After doing this, the situation became worse: I can no longer install the app at all via TestFlight. What I have already tried I have attempted all of the following multiple times: Removing and re-adding tester access in TestFlight Deleting and reinstalling the TestFlight app Installing the app via a new invitation link Installing the app via an invitation code None of these attempts worked. Error message Every attempt results in the same error message: Unable to Load App This invitation is not associated with the Apple Account you’re currently signed in with (me [at] example [dot] com). Sign in to TestFlight with the original Apple Account (me [at] example [dot] com) or ask the developer for a new invitation. Why this seems incorrect The error message suggests that the Apple ID signed into TestFlight does not match the invited account. However, I am using the exact same Apple ID for: TestFlight Apple ID (device iCloud account) App Store There is no account mismatch. Everything is logged in with the same Apple ID (me [at] example [dot] com). At this point, I am completely blocked and cannot proceed with testing or updates. Question Is there a known issue where removing and re-adding tester access can permanently invalidate an Apple ID for a specific TestFlight app? Is there any way to reset or clear the tester state for an Apple ID on Apple’s side? Any guidance or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Good morning all, We have an on-premise instance of Bitbucket (v8.19.25), using a custom port. We'd like to try using Xcode Cloud, compare to our current CI/CD provider. Once I have to select my source control provider to grant access, I select Bitbucket Server. If I try to input the Host Name with, or without a port, I'm receiving this response: { "message": "An error occurred", "details": [ { "message": "An error occurred", "source": "host" } ], "actions": [], "recovery_actions": [ { "dismiss_label": "OK" }, { "feedback_label": "Provide Feedback", "feedback_component": "Xcode Cloud | New Bugs" } ], "should_show_error": true } Which, of course, doesn't help me in the slightest to understand why the connection fails. I do notice that the request to https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/ci/api/teams/<id>/setup-flow/scm-repositories in the web inspector already includes a host and port that I use to clone the repository locally. However, the web-based interface of Bitbucket doesn't include that port. So, if I clone a repo: ssh://<bitbucket-instance>:<port>, but if I look at pull requests: https://`. My colleagues have already determined that there shouldn't be any firewall rules or gateway limits, so Bitbucket should be reachable. No VPN either. How can I continue to fix this?

Scenario Overview: In our app, we open an in-app browser to complete a third-party consent flow. The sequence is: App → Website A (set cookie and redirect) → Google → Website A (check cookie) → App After upgrading the app, the first consent attempt fails because the cookie cannot be written, causing the check cookie step to fail. However, if we use the native Safari browser, this issue does not occur. Observed Behavior: Scenario Result Upgrade app → Consent ❌ Fail Upgrade app → Consent fail → Consent again immediately ✅ Pass Upgrade app → Consent fail → Upgrade again after 1–2h → Consent ✅ Pass Upgrade app → Consent fail → Upgrade again after 1d → Consent ❌ Fail Install a new app → Consent ✅ Pass Upgrade app → Consent, cancel flow → Consent again ✅ Pass Install new app → Wait for upgrade → Upgrade app → Consent ✅ Pass Install new app → Wait 1–2h → Upgrade app → Consent ✅ Pass Investigation: From Safari documentation, this seems related to Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP), which restricts cross-site cookie behavior during first-party interactions. However, I haven’t found a clear mitigation strategy yet. Question: Has anyone encountered similar issues with Safari ITP after app upgrades? Are there recommended approaches to ensure cookies persist across this redirect flow?

Hello everyone, I am currently developing an app for my Swift Student Challenge submission that focuses on human motion analysis using the Vision framework. To effectively demonstrate the app's technical capabilities during the review process, I need to include a sample video showing a person performing specific movements. However, I want to ensure that my submission strictly adheres to all intellectual property guidelines. Instead of using existing copyrighted videos or public social media clips, I am considering using Generative AI to create an original, royalty-free sample video. This video would feature a character performing movements designed specifically to test my app's pose estimation and feedback logic. I have a few questions regarding this approach: Is it acceptable to use AI-generated sample assets (like video clips) to demonstrate technical features when it's difficult to record high-quality personal footage due to environmental constraints? If I clearly disclose the tools used and the reason for using AI-generated content in my written response, would this be considered a professional approach to asset management? Are there any specific guidelines I should follow to ensure that the use of AI-generated samples doesn't overshadow the original coding and design work of the project? My goal is to showcase a polished and technically sound implementation using Xcode 26 while respecting all copyright requirements. Thank you for your time and advice!

The Problem The Family Activity Picker shows only the child's app categories on the guardian's/parent's device. The application names from the child's device are not showing on the guardian's/parent's device. The authorization is done on the child's device via try await AuthorizationCenter.shared.requestAuthorization(for: .child) Usage of the family activity picker on the guardian's/parent's device struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresented = true @StateObject private var familyControlsHelper = FamilyControlsHelper.shared var onClose: () -> Void var body: some View { ZStack { Color.black.opacity(0.1).ignoresSafeArea() } .familyActivityPicker( isPresented: $isPresented, selection: $familyControlsHelper.familyActivitySelection ) .onChange(of: isPresented) { _ in if !isPresented { onClose() } } } } IMPORTANT Both devices are real (not simulators), and the app has granted distribution Family Controls entitlement. Question Is this the expected behavior? Or the child's app should appear on the guardian's device? Thanks.

I have uploaded my build 10 days ago, still it is in processing. FYKI: The app size is 533 MB. Now two more builds were added and that is also in processing. Please help us.

Hi, I’m experiencing unusually long processing times for TestFlight builds in App Store Connect. Details: App version: 1.0.0 Build numbers affected: 49 and 50 Status: “Processing” for 13+ hours Previous build (48) processed successfully the same day (10min) The builds were uploaded successfully, and there are no changes to provisioning profiles or certificates. The only differences between the builds are minor code changes with paywall. Is it normal for TestFlight builds to remain in “Processing” for this long?

I have been playing around with the new AsyncImage Api in SwiftUI I am using the initialiser that passes in a closure with the AsyncImagePhase, to view why an image may not load, when I looked at the error that is passed in if the phase is failure, the localised description of the error is "Cancelled" but this is happening before the view is being displayed. I am loading these images in a list, I imagine I am probably doing something which is causing the system to decide to cancel the loading, but I cannot see what. Are there any tips to investigate this further?

Has anyone been able to get a resolution from apple for this issue? I've paid for the developer Account on January 6th 2026, to which i've received no email responses as they initially indicated. Subsequently I filed two separate follow up cases request via the website and still no response until this day, the 14th January 2026. Case ID: 102798510362 Enrollment ID: Q9P345Z8G2. If anyone can help that will be appreciated.

I paid for the developer account subscription on November 9, and as of now, the status is still pending. I’ve already contacted the support center for help more than three days ago, but I haven’t received any reply or even an acknowledgment email. How do they even operate? The delay is completely unreasonable. Has anyone else experienced the same thing?

It’s the small things that make a difference, and the three dots at the top of the screen in Safari and Chrome are such examples. I’ve already accidentally deleted several tab groups by accident and try to relearn browsing is harder than it should be.

With iOS 26 the CPListSection header has a transparent background, and when the list scrolls under the header it doesn't look good at all. We expected to see a glass fading effect maybe, like the one on the top of the screen. Is it a known bug?

Hardware Specifications Regarding the LiDAR scanner in the iPhone 13/14/15/16/17 Pro series, could you please provide the following technical details for academic verification: Point Cloud Density / Resolution: The effective resolution of the depth map. Sampling Frequency: The sensor's refresh rate. Accuracy Metrics: Official tolerance levels regarding depth accuracy relative to distance (specifically within 0.5m – 2m range). Data Acquisition Methodology For a scientific thesis requiring high data integrity: Does Apple recommend a custom ARKit implementation over third-party applications (e.g., Polycam) to access raw depth data? I need to confirm if third-party apps typically apply smoothing or post-processing that would obscure the sensor's native performance, which must be avoided for my error analysis.

Views placed inside tabViewBottomAccessory that access @Environment values or contain @State properties experience unstable identity, as shown by Self._printChanges(). The identity changes on every structural update to the TabView, even though the view's actual identity should remain stable. This causes unnecessary view recreation and breaks SwiftUI's expected identity and lifecycle behavior. Environment Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) iOS 26.2 simulator and device struct ContentView: View { @State var showMoreTabs = true struct DemoTab: View { var body: some View { Text(String(describing: type(of: self))) } } var body: some View { TabView { Tab("Home", systemImage: "house") { DemoTab() } Tab("Alerts", systemImage: "bell") { DemoTab() } if showMoreTabs { TabSection("Categories") { Tab("Climate", systemImage: "fan") { DemoTab() } Tab("Lights", systemImage: "lightbulb") { DemoTab() } } } Tab("Settings", systemImage: "gear") { List { Toggle("Show more Tabs", isOn: $showMoreTabs) } } } .tabViewBottomAccessory { AccessoryView() } .task { while true { try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(5)) if Task.isCancelled { break } print("toggling showMoreTabs") showMoreTabs.toggle() } } .tabBarMinimizeBehavior(.onScrollDown) } } struct AccessoryView: View { var body: some View { HStack { EnvironmentAccess() WithState() Stateless() } } } struct EnvironmentAccess: View { @Environment(\.tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement) var placement var body: some View { // FIXME: EnvironmentAccess: @self, @identity, _placement changed. // Identity should be stable let _ = Self._printChanges() Text(String(describing: type(of: self))) } } struct WithState: View { @State var int = Int.random(in: 0...100) var body: some View { // FIXME: WithState: @self, @identity, _id changed. // Identity should be stable let _ = Self._printChanges() Text(String(describing: type(of: self))) } } struct Stateless: View { var body: some View { // Works as expected: Stateless: @self changed. let _ = Self._printChanges() Text(String(describing: type(of: self))) } } This bug seems to make accessing TabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement impossible without losing view identity; the demo code is affected by the bug. Accessing a value like @Environment(\.colorScheme) is similarly affected, making visually adapting the contents of the accessory to the TabView content without losing identity challenging if not impossible. Submitted as FB21627918.

Any view that is content for the tabViewBottomAccessory API fails to retain its state as of the last couple of 26.1 betas (and RC). The loss of state happens (at least) when the currently selected tab is switched (filed as FB20901325). Here's code to reproduce the issue: struct ContentView: View { @State private var selectedTab = TabSelection.one enum TabSelection: Hashable { case one, two } var body: some View { TabView(selection: $selectedTab) { Tab("One", systemImage: "1.circle", value: .one) { BugExplanationView() } Tab("Two", systemImage: "2.circle", value: .two) { BugExplanationView() } } .tabViewBottomAccessory { AccessoryView() } } } struct AccessoryView: View { @State private var counter = 0 // This guy's state gets lost (as of iOS 26.1) var body: some View { Stepper("Counter: \(counter)", value: $counter) .padding(.horizontal) } } struct BugExplanationView: View { var body: some View { ScrollView { VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 16) { Text("(1) Manipulate the counter state") Text("(2) Then switch tabs") Text("BUG: The counter state gets unexpectedly reset!") } .multilineTextAlignment(.leading) } } }

I’m running Xcode 26.1.1 (17B100) with deployment target iOS 18.0+, and I’m seeing a consistent and reproducible issue on real devices (iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro): Problem The first time the user taps into a TextField or a SwiftUI .searchable field after app launch, the app freezes for 30–45 seconds before the keyboard appears. During the freeze, the device console floods with: XPC connection interrupted Reporter disconnected. { function=sendMessage, reporterID=XXXXXXXXXXXX } -[RTIInputSystemClient remoteTextInputSessionWithID:performInputOperation:] perform input operation requires a valid sessionID. inputModality = Keyboard customInfoType = UIEmojiSearchOperations After the keyboard finally appears once, the issue never happens again until the app is force-quit. This occurs on device Reproduction Steps Minimal reproducible setup: Create a new SwiftUI app. Add a single TextField or .searchable modifier. Install Firebase (Firestore or Analytics is enough). Build and run on device. Tap the text field immediately after the home screen appears. Result: App freezes for 30–45 seconds before keyboard appears, with continuous XPC/RTIInputSystem errors in the logs. If Firebase is removed, the issue occurs less often, but still happens occasionally. Even If Firebase initialization is delayed by ~0.5 seconds, the issue is still there. Question Is this a known issue with iOS 18 / RTIInputSystem / Xcode 26.1.1, and is there a recommended workaround? Delaying Firebase initialization avoids the freeze, but this isn’t ideal for production apps with startup authentication requirements. Any guidance or confirmation would be appreciated.

On iOS Devices with ProMotion (120HZ) if you animate Elements on your Page with animation-timeline you get Ghosting Effects. You can not see the Ghosting with a Simulator or on Screenshots, only on real Devices. To Reproduce I made a Minimal Example: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/120hztest-xrwgtc When you scroll quickly on the Page with an iOS 120HZ Device (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_smartphones_with_a_high_refresh_rate_display) you will see ghosting on the Top of the right Element (animation-timeline) and no ghosting on the other animated Element. (I edited the Screenshot, to Illustrate how the Effect looks like, since it is only visible on the real Display)

I’m attempting to resubmit my app after a few unsuccessful review submissions (first time dealing with this process). Previously, when I resubmitted (the last two times), the “In-App Purchases and Subscriptions” section was available on the version page, and I could select the appropriate IAPs and subscriptions prior to submitting for review. However, on the resubmission attempt, this section is no longer visible anywhere on the version page! I’ve tried several troubleshooting steps, but it still won’t appear. Current status: All IAPs/subscriptions: Waiting for Review App version status: 1.0 Prepare for Submission It has been suggested that I "deleting all my subscriptions and [do] them over again..."; however, this workaround is completely unacceptable! While it may work for unreleased apps, it would be catastrophic for production apps. If this UI bug occurred during a subsequent update, deleting IAPs would permanently invalidate the original product IDs—which cannot be reused. This would break all existing customer purchases! Does anyone know how to get around this?????

Hi, we've been developing an XR application for Apple Vision Pro which has worked fine so far. Now that the SDKs have updated to 26.2 (for Xcode and AVP versions) we've run into an error that prevents the app from launching. I get the following error when running the application in the AVP Simulator (building for destination Apple Vision Pro (26.2), and my colleague gets the same error when building for the device itself and launching there. BUG IN CLIENT: For mixed reality experiences please use cp_drawable_compute_projection API Type: Error | Timestamp: 2026-01-13 09:21:57.242191+02:00 | Process: My XR App | Library: CompositorNonUI | TID: 0x75e2c (copied with "all metadata") How can we debug this further? The error in the console doesn't seem to give any stack trace or clear pointer to the code which relates to it. I've tried searching for CompositorNonUI, but that doesn't yield any results in our project (nor Google nor the Apple developer forums). There is one post in the forum that has a similar error (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/788500?answerId=845039022#845039022) but searching in our project and it's dependencies, we don't seem to use ".tangent" anywhere either. Any help in either debugging to find more details on where the issue happens or pointers to fixing it much appreciated, thanks!
