Overview

I am trying to notarize my app but it rejected with this error after 5 days of being in progress. { "logFormatVersion": 1, "jobId": "8291ad9e-4c8e-4974-8753-af1a78e5a4a2", "status": "Rejected", "statusSummary": "Team is not yet configured for notarization.

I have an urgent product launch deadline in a week! I have contacted developer program support but have received no response.

Hello, thanks for your effort! I found that when showsUserLocation is set to true (by default), the pulsing blue dot user location annotation is shown, which is cool and beautiful. However, it will automatically and periodically attempt to call the Apple Server API GET https://api.apple-mapkit.com/v1/reverseGeocode within userLocationDidChange() and updateUserLocationAnnotation() to display, I assume, the user's current address when single-tapping on the blue dot. It will significantly use the MapKit service calls quota since the user location is automatically updated. It almost runs out of quota even though the map initialization is plenty enough. Is there any way to disable the bubble behavior but preserve the user location blue dot, which is lovely and better than drawing my own user location dot? It seems I can only turn off all user location features. Many thanks!

I’m using Network Framework with UDP and calling: connection.receive(minimumIncompleteLength: 1, maximumLength: 1500) { data, context, isComplete, error in ... // Some Logic } Is it possible for this completion handler to be called with data==nil if I haven't received any kind of error, i.e., error==nil and the connection is still in the .ready state?

Currently, I have purchased the Apple Developer Program for 4 days. However, I can not access or hear any news from Apple team that where I was wrong or do my account have any problems.

I have been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program for the past two weeks, but I keep encountering different errors. Most of the time, I receive a 404 error page saying, “Something went wrong. Try again.” Three days ago, $100 was deducted from my bank account by Apple, but my developer account status still shows “Pending.” Apple states that “Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process,” but it has now been more than 48 hours and there has been no update. I have already: Sent an email to devpayment @apple.com with screenshots and full details (no response). Opened a case through Apple Developer Program Support and only received an automated reply saying, “Thank you for contacting us.” At this point, it feels like there is no real support available to resolve this issue. Has anyone experienced something similar? How did you resolve it? Thank you.

Hello, I’m looking for assistance regarding my Apple Ads account. When I try to log in, I receive the following message: “This Apple Account is no longer authorized for Apple Ads. If you believe that this is an error, please contact us.” When I click “Contact us,” I am redirected back to the same message and cannot submit a support request. I have not received any email explaining this restriction. At the same time, my ads appear to still be running, as I am seeing new users coming into my app. Since I cannot access the account, I currently have no visibility or control over active campaigns and potential ongoing spend. I would appreciate guidance on how to resolve this or how to directly contact Apple Ads support, as I am unable to reach them through the platform. Thank you for your help.

I'm testing CloudKit Sharing (CKShare) in my app. My app uses CloudKit Sharing to share private data between users (this is not App Store Family Sharing or purchase sharing, it's app-level sharing via CKShare). To properly test this, I need three or four Apple Accounts with distinct roles in my app. This means I need three/four separate iCloud accounts signed in on test devices. Simulators are probably ok: two acting as "parents" (share owner and participant): parent1.sandbox@example.com parent2.sandbox@example.com, one or two as a "child" (participant) child1.sandbox@example.com child2.sandbox@example.com except obviously using my domain name. I attempted to create Sandbox Apple Accounts in App Store Connect, but these don't appear to work with CloudKit Sharing. I then created several standard Apple Accounts, but I've now hit a limit — I believe my mobile number (used for two-factor authentication on the test accounts) has been flagged or rate-limited for account creation, and I can no longer create or verify new accounts with it. It's also blocked the email addresses associated with those accounts from being used for new account creation. Can Apple or anyone advise on the recommended approach for testing CloudKit Sharing with multiple participants? are Sandbox accounts supposed to work for CKShare, or do I need full Apple Accounts? How do i create and verify these in the correct way to avoid hitting these limits or breaking terms of service?

Xcode 26.2 cannot delete the Simulator under Other Installed Platforms. After testing, I found that Simulator Architecture Variant of the Universal type cannot be deleted, but the Apple Silicon type can be deleted. Every time I delete it, it reappears after restarting the computer.

Hello, I’m looking for guidance regarding a new app submission that has been in “Waiting for Review” status for 6 days now, with no change or additional communication. This is a brand-new app submission (not an update). There have been no metadata changes or rejections — it has remained in the waiting state since submission. I completely understand that review times can vary depending on workload and complexity. I just wanted to check whether this timeframe is currently normal, or if there may be something specific I should verify on my end. The app is an educational medical application, and all content is original. There are no unusual entitlements, external payment systems, or restricted APIs involved. If anyone from Apple or fellow developers has insight into whether extended “Waiting for Review” times are currently common, I would appreciate your input. Thank you in advance.

Missing recommended icon. The bundle does not contain an alternate app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120' pixels, in .png format for iOS versions >= 10.0. To support older versions of iOS, the icon may be required in the bundle outside of an asset catalog. Make sure the Info.plist file includes appropriate entries referencing the file. See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/cfbundleicons (90890) Missing Icon. The Info.plist key CFBundleIcons.CFBundleAlternateIcons contains an entry “newIcon” that references asset “newIcon.” No such asset is present in the asset catalog. (90895) I configured multiple icon settings in Xcode 26 version. I added new Icons in the asset file. However, after packaging and uploading the app to the AppStore, it kept giving me an error message saying that some content was missing. Looking at the documentation, it doesn't seem to say that starting from Xcode 13, we can configure through the asset file?

A blank keyboard appear in safari view controller Description: While clicking a password enter field in a page inside a safari view controller, keyboard will appear. However, the keyboard is blank out. The app is enterprise program app which is iPhone app but allow to install in iPad. The issue will only appear in iPadOS 26+ and it can be temporary fixed by changing the window size. Expected result: A keyboard with characters button should be appeared. Actual: A keyboard which is blank and no characters can be input. P.S. : A feedback ticket also raise : FB21921438

I am trying to sign my Mac app to use Network Extensions capability. But every time I create a profile it displays that to me: on the other hand on the website it displays this to me:

Hello, We are experiencing a recurring issue when running iOS apps in the Rosetta simulator on Xcode 26. Environment: Xcode: 26.0 macOS: 15.7.3 Simulator: Intel-based (Rosetta) simulators Languages: Both Swift and Objective-C Issue: When launching an app in a Rosetta simulator, the app frequently freezes or fails to run. In many cases, Xcode reports that the debugger has lost connection. Xcode error message: Lost connection to the debugger on “iPhone 12”. Domain: IDEDebugSessionErrorDomain Code: 22 Failure Reason: Message from debugger: lost connection Console log: assertion failed: GPR thread_set_state is unimplemented for NewThread (ThreadContextRegisterState.cpp:920 host_gpr_state_from_guest_state) Observed behavior: Rebuilding after fully quitting the simulator sometimes resolves the issue temporarily. Disabling Scheme > Run > Debug executable allows the app to run normally, but debugging (breakpoints, etc.) becomes unavailable. The issue does not occur: On real devices On ARM-based simulators When building with Xcode 16 using Rosetta Has anyone encountered this issue with Xcode 26 and Rosetta simulators? Is this a known bug, and are there any recommended workarounds besides disabling the debugger or restarting the simulator? Thank you in advance for any insights or guidance.

Hello, We have applied for the Apple Developer Program under a government organization account. After submitting the enrollment, we received a confirmation email stating that the request was received and that we would be contacted after verification of authorization to bind the organization to the Apple Developer Program legal agreements. However, it has been quite some time, and we have not received any further updates regarding the verification process. We would like to understand: What is the usual verification timeline for government organizations? Is extended verification common for government entities? Is there anything additional we should do from our side to help move the process forward? If anyone has experienced a similar situation or can share guidance, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I see many developers struggling with ASO where AI written content does not deliver results, performance analysis is unclear, localization is ignored, App Store optimization is incomplete, and keywords are often poorly chosen. I am considering running two simple group sessions to share practical tips and show clear ways to improve ASO with real effort involved, and I would like feedback on this idea whether offered for a small fee or even for free.

Hello, We are implementing a Transparent Proxy using NETransparentProxyProvider and configuring NETransparentProxyNetworkSettings with NENetworkRule. Currently, NENetworkRule requires: NENetworkRule( destinationHost: NWHostEndpoint(hostname: String, port: String), protocol: .TCP / .UDP / .any ) NWHostEndpoint.port accepts only a single port value (as a String) or an empty string for all ports. At present, we are creating a separate NENetworkRule for each port in the range (ex for range 49152–65535 approximately 16,384 rules). After deploying this configuration, we observe the following behavior: nesessionmanager starts consuming very high CPU (near 100%) The system becomes unresponsive The device eventually hangs and restarts automatically The behavior resembles a kernel panic scenario This strongly suggests that creating thousands of NENetworkRule entries may not be a supported or scalable approach. Questions: Is there any officially supported way to specify a port range in NENetworkRule? Is creating thousands of rules (one per port) considered acceptable or supported? Is the recommended design to intercept broadly (e.g., port = "") and filter port ranges inside handleNewTCPFlow / handleNewUDPFlow instead? Are there documented system limits for the number of NENetworkRule entries allowed in NETransparentProxyNetworkSettings?

Background: My app uses a third-party SDK for payments, and it uses Original StoreKit internally for IAP payments. Now I'm getting ready to migrate to StoreKit2, and during the transition, users may use either method to initiate payments, and there's no way to avoid the coexistence of StoreKit2 and Original StoreKit. Problem: When a user has an unfinished transaction, if the app is restarted, both StoreKit2 and Original StoreKit will receive a notification of the transaction: Original StoreKit's '-paymentQueue:updatedTransactions:' method StoreKit2's 'Transaction.updated' method resulting in duplicate calls to the shipping API. My current treatment is to only add '-paymentQueue:updatedTransactions:' to listen for unfinished transactions. Even if the user is using StoreKit2 to initiate the payment, if the transaction is not Finished, it will be fetched via this method after restarting the app to process this transaction. Is this approach feasible and are there any best practices for this scenario? To summarize: Is it feasible to fetch unfinished StoreKit2 transactions via Original StoreKit methods when StoreKit2 coexists with Original StoreKit? Is there a recommended way

› It is reasonable to assume Xcode AI integration means AI being able to change the build target... “Why can Xcode Intelligence see source files but not .xcodeproj/project.pbxproj for direct edit?” “Is this a known limitation/bug in Xcode 26.3 RC Project Context or MCP Xcode Tools?” “Any required entitlement/setting beyond Intelligence > Xcode Tools for build-setting edits?”

I’ve seen, mainly in discussions with AIs, that ARFaceTrackingConfiguration uses the same technology as Face ID and therefore should work in complete darkness. However, I haven’t been able to achieve this. Does anyone know if this is actually true? I'm using an iPhone 16 to test, and the Face ID works well in darkness.
