Reply to Guidance Getting Started - A Golf League App
What Quinn said, plus Wondering if writing an app will make life easier in the long run, plus, some day I will need to pass the coordinating to someone else. It would be easier for them to learn an app versus all the steps in Excel. It depends on the complexity of the app, but, by experience, reworking on a sophisticated Excel sheet written by someone else is really tricky and error prone. So, if your application is a little bit sophisticated, Excel is not the way to go (IMHO). In addition, native app will let you add features that cannot be implemented in Excel. An app appears well adapted and SwiftUI would probably make it pretty easy to develop.   Do I develop using Swift (and deal with finding future replacement with a Mac) What is your concern with Mac ? BTW, SwiftUI makes it easy to be cross platforms (Mac, iOS, iPadOS…) Don't forget to close the thread once you have made your mind.

Reply to Need Help Publish My App Rejected
Welcome to the forum. You have to test your app to make sure it does work properly. That's a prerequisite. Otherwise, you provide so little information that it's hard to say for sure. For some reason (may be due to the category of app, but you don't tell), reviewer needs information to understand what the app is doing, how (are there traps for the users ?), whether there are compliance issues in its workflow… It's a bit unusual list of questions, so it may indicate that reviewer may be skeptical about your app. So you'd better provide detailed (and very accurate) answers to all questions. You will not pass the review otherwise. If that answers your question, don't forget to close the thread.

would like to change it to lower case. On the forum ? You could try to contact support https://developer.apple.com/contact/ or the Data Protection Officer 'dpo @ apple.com' (I had to add spaces to the mail address; remove them): to ask for changing the name or to request the complete removal of your developer forum account and profile data. As you are apparently new to the forums, you won't loose a lot. And then register again on the forum with the correct name. If that works, please tell and close the thread by marking the correct answer.

Have you installed Bear markdown notes app, or Hoogles ? If so, found this by googling. Hope it will help. A bear icon in the iMessage app drawer usually belongs to the Bear markdown notes app, which installs an extension for sending cute Bear iMessage stickers in your chats. Manage the Bear Icon Go to the Store or look for the Manage tab. Find Bear in the list and toggle the switch on to enable it. (Note: You must have the main Bear app installed on your device for the sticker pack option to appear). If that answers your question, don't forget to close the thread on the answer.

Reply to App not appearing in App Store search for its own exact name — 4 weeks, ID lookup works fine (Apple ID 6782704808)
If this test can help… Effectively, Direct App Store link works fine. Searching for "MapSwap" in French AppStore shows a completion search as "mapswap for Safari" in the search bar. Looks like a reference tou yours. But taping "mapswap for Safari" shows 2 apps, notably one from Phil Trevor named "Redirection Cartes" in French AppStore. Does not look like yours. Taping Search for MapSwap lists a lot of app, several SwapMap ; but no MapSwap. What to do ? Hope Quinn (eskimo) reads your post, he is always very helpful. PS: I see the app requests iOS 26.4+ that's a bit restrictive, isn't it ?

Reply to Issue with verifying developer app on iPhone
Welcome to the forum. What is the mail of your Apple account ? Is is the same gmail as we can see in the first screenshot ? But from what you can read here, it could be an Apple Verification server issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcode/comments/1rq5rgp/unable_to_verify_app_an_internet_connection_is/ Check in system status if there is any outage: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ or https://developer.apple.com/system-status/ In that case, it should resolve by itself in a few hours. When it's solved, don't forget to tell on the forum and to close the thread. Good luck

Reply to App Store Connect validation failed: MinimumOSVersion 12.0 is not acceptable
Up to recently, 12.0 was accepted. Then, we got a warning on uploading that 15 would be soon needed. So likely this time has come. Note: probably less than 1% of iPhone run under iOS 15. What is the issue with changing minimum requirement to 15 (in fact, likely 15.6) ?

Reply to AppStore Upcoming Requirement - Scene Delegate Migration Enforcement
AFAIK, you are doing this at your own risks. It could change anytime in the future, so you'd better prepare.

Reply to SwiftUI alert dismisses immediately when presented from a nested sheet
Alert is noted as deprecated. I tried to use as advised: alert(_:isPresented:presenting:actions:message:) Same behaviour with Xcode 26.3. But initial code of @FMDRE works OK with Xcode 27.0 beta4

It would make it easier for testing purpose and to make sure we test the same, to get your full code with the tabView.

Reply to Red badge on App Review after re-submit stays?
AFAIK, the red badge (not your red overlay) will stay as long as the review has not passed OK. It just means the app is presently in rejected status. So you have nothing to do, just wait.
