Mergeable Library Bundle Hooking Does Not Work When Frameworks Is Merged Into Container Framework
Problem When we merge FeatureModuleA.framework into IntegrationContainer.framework instead of HostApp_Main.app, the magic method Bundle(for: FeatureAProvider.self) does not work and this will trigger crash. When FeatureModuleA is merged into HostApp, Bundle(for: FeatureAProvider.self) will return: HostApp_Main.App/Frameworks/DomainFeatureA.framework instead of HostApp_Main.App/, although the FeatureAProvider class is actually in the merged main app binary So we can use the returned FeatureModuleA bundle get the nested resource. If we merge the frameworks into our IntegrationContainer.framework, the result will be: for release: PrototypeApp.app for debug: PrototypeApp.app/Frameworks/IntegrationContainer.framework/ReexportedBinaries/DomainFeatureA.framework Apple has not considered the case that frameworks are merged into independent framework. And other methods like bundle(for: identifier) does not work for both destination cases: merge into main app or a container framework.

cybersource Payment Gateway not able to decrypt paymenttoken
Cybersource production support has clarified issue as below "On the BAD Case, it seems that the Apple Payload did not contain the "onlinePaymentCryptogram" object within the JSON. The Cryptogram is critical and mandatory. Since the merchant cannot really control this, and since CYBS is just decrypting the payload and uses it, we cannot comment as to why it was missing. The merchant would need to reach out to Apple and/or decrypt the payment themselves locally to check if and why this data was not present, for troubleshooting purposes."

App stuck “In Review” for several days after AI-policy rejection — need clarification
Hello everyone, I’m looking for guidance regarding my app review timeline, as things seem unusually delayed compared to previous submissions. My iOS app was rejected on November 19th due to AI-related policy questions. I immediately responded to the reviewer with detailed explanations covering: Model used (Gemini Flash 2.0 / 2.5 Lite) How the AI only generates neutral, non-directive reflective questions How the system prevents any diagnosis, therapy-like behavior or recommendations Crisis-handling limitations Safety safeguards at generation and UI level Internal red-team testing and results Data retention, privacy, and non-use of data for model training After sending the requested information, I resubmitted the build on November 19th at 14:40. Since then: November 20th (7:30) → Status changed to In Review. November 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th → No movement, still In Review. My open case on App Store Connect is still pending without updates. Because of the previous rejection, I expected a short delay, but this is now 5 days total and 3 business days with no progress, which feels longer than usual for my past submissions. I’m not sure whether: My app is in a secondary review queue due to the AI-related rejection, The reviewer is waiting for internal clarification, Or if something is stuck and needs to be escalated. I don’t want to resubmit a new build unless necessary, since that would restart the queue. Could someone from the community (or Apple, if possible) confirm whether this waiting time is normal after an AI-policy rejection? And is there anything I should do besides waiting — for example, contacting Developer Support again or requesting a follow-up? Thank you very much for your help. I appreciate any insight from others who have experienced similar delays.

Shortcut to wrap selected lines in a #if/#endif
I'm looking for a way to make the following possible in Xcode (26.0 or later): I select one or more lines of code. I then enter a hotkey (or select a menu item) that results in adding the line: #ifdef SOME_MACRO before the selection and adding the line: #endif after the selection. Example: Start with the following lines of code: BOOL x = NO; int y = 4; NSString *str = @"Hello"; If I then highlight the int y = 4; line and use the proper hotkey or menu, the result would be: BOOL x = NO; #ifdef SOME_MACRO int y = 4; #endif NSString *str = @"Hello"; Is something like this possible in Xcode? I looked at code snippets but that doesn't seem to support wrapping existing code. I looked at the Xcode Settings under Editor and Shortcuts and didn't see a way to add such a custom shortcut.

Unexpected expiresDate for monthly subscription renewal?
I'm an app developer, and I recently launched a monthly subscription product in my app on the App Store. However, I'm having trouble understanding the App Store's renewal date calculation policy. According to the official documentation, if a subscription is purchased on December 1st, the next renewal date should be January 1st. But the expiresDate is set to December 31st instead. At first, I thought this might be a timezone issue, but even after it became December 1st in UTC, the renewal date was still set to December 31st. Is the timezone used to calculate renewal dates not UTC+0? Or is there documentation on the renewal cycle policy that I might have missed? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Failed PLA Update Available
I am getting the following error: " Unable to process request - PLA Update available: You currently don't have access to this membership resource. To resolve this issue, agree to the latest Program License Agreement in your developer account." Seems to be straight forward enough but after agreeing to the updated PLA I still get the error..but weirdly only on one title and on one device. I can compile and run the app on my iPad, but it fails on the iPhone. Thoughts?

We are getting a blank image after capturing and compressing the picture.
We used below method to resize image while compress the image, Below method is correct or need to do the correction in method or "CGBitmapContextCreate" -(UIImage *)resizeImage:(UIImage *)anImage width:(int)width height:(int)height { CGImageRef imageRef = [anImage CGImage]; CGImageAlphaInfo alphaInfo = CGImageGetAlphaInfo(imageRef); if (alphaInfo == kCGImageAlphaNone) alphaInfo = kCGImageAlphaNoneSkipLast; CGContextRef bitmap = CGBitmapContextCreate(NULL, width, height, CGImageGetBitsPerComponent(imageRef), 4 * width, CGImageGetColorSpace(imageRef), alphaInfo); CGContextDrawImage(bitmap, CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height), imageRef); CGImageRef ref = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(bitmap); UIImage *result = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:ref]; CGContextRelease(bitmap); CGImageRelease(ref); return result; }

Sign in with Google Issue
We're having issues getting Sign in with Google to function on TestFlight (not experiencing these issues on iOS Browser) with user unable to be authorised and proceed to logged in screens of our app. Below are the three sign-in methods tested and the exact results for each. Button 1: Default Standard Google Sign-In button (Google JavaScript SDK) embedded in the frontend. Uses the normal OAuth browser redirect flow. Auth URL: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?... Sometimes disallowed_useragent error. Other times a 400 invalid_request error. In most cases the callback is never triggered inside the wrapper. Appears that the wrapper does not retain cookies/session data from the external Google window. Button 2: Custom Custom button calling Google OAuth through our own redirect handler. Explicitly set a custom user-agent to bypass disallowed user agent logic. Later removed user-agent override entirely for testing. Added multiple ATS (App Transport Security) exceptions for Google domains. Added custom URL scheme to Info.plist for OAuth redirect. Changing the user-agent had no effect. ATS exceptions + scheme support verified and working. Redirect still fails to propagate tokens back to the WebView. In tests a few weeks ago we got to Google’s login page, but it never returned to the app with a valid code. Now we are consistently getting disallowed_useragent error. Button 3: Default Same as Button 1 however tested outside of Vue.js with just plain JavaScript. Added new Google domain exceptions and updated redirect URIs. Behaviour matches Button 1 Google account selection sometimes worked, however now consitently disallowed_useragent error Additional Technical Attempts User-Agent Modifications Set UA to standard desktop Chrome → no effect. Removed UA override → no effect. ATS / Domain / Scheme Configuration Added: accounts.google.com .googleusercontent.com *.googleapis.com

Playing Apple Fairplay encrypted content on iOS 26
For iOS17 we've had no problem playing Apple Fairplay encrypted content with keys delivered from our key server running on FairPlay Streaming Server SDK 5.1 and subsequently FairPlay Streaming Server SDK 26. It's built and deployed using Xcode Version 26.1.1 (17B100) with no changes to the code and - as expected - the content continued to be successfully decrypted and played (so far so good). However, as soon as a device was updated to iOS26, that device would no longer play the encrypted content. Devices remaining on iOS17 continue to work normally and the debugging logs are a sanity-check that proves that. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Here's the code (you should be able to drop it into a fresh iOS Xcode project and provide a server url, content url and certificate).

Interactive ColumnTable header?
AI's would have me believe that the header of a TableColumn in Table() can be modified to be interactive simply by adding a header: closure with a Button however no provided code actually compiles or reflects any documentation I can find. Is it possible to put something besides a Text object in the header?

How can I assign priorities to my app’s GPU workloads?
My app has a number of heterogeneous GPU workloads that all run concurrently. Some of these should be executed with the highest priority because the app’s responsiveness depends on them, while others are triggered by file imports and the like which should have a low priority. If this was running on the CPU I’d assign the former User Interactive QoS and the latter Utility QoS. Is there an equivalent to this for GPU work?

Is it possible for an iOS app extension to support App Attest?
From watching the video on App Attest the answer would appear to be no, but the video is a few years old so in hope, I thought I would post this question anyway. There's several scenarios where I would like a notification service extension to be able to use App Attest in communications with the back end(for example to send a receipt to the backend acknowledging receipt of the push, fetching an image from a url in the push payload, a few others). Any change App Attest can be used in by a notification service extension?

iOS 26 UI Components Not Rendering in TestFlight
Issue Summary: iOS 26 UI components are not visible in the Expo app when installed via TestFlight. All components render correctly in local builds or when running with expo run:ios. Details: The app is built using Expo managed workflow. iOS 26-specific UI components do not appear in TestFlight builds. The same components display correctly in local builds and simulators. Test device: iPhone running iOS 26.1. There are no crashes or runtime errors; only the components are missing. This issue occurs only in TestFlight/release builds. Expected Behavior: All iOS 26 UI components should render in TestFlight builds the same way they do in local builds. Actual Behavior: Components fail to render or are completely missing. Device Information: Device: iPhone iOS Version: 26.1 Distribution: TestFlight Local Build: Working correctly Additional Notes: This may be related to Expo release build optimization or iOS 26 SDK compatibility.
