Interactive Widget: unable to reload timeline from AppIntent
My app features two kinds of widgets, let's call them kind A and kind B. I have both A and B widgets on my Home Screen. When I tap the button on widget A (associated with App Intent), I expect widget B to also reload. However, if you call WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() inside the perform() method of the AppIntent, the timeline of widget B does not reload immediately. This issue only occurs on a physical device and is not consistently reproducible. On a simulator, however, widget B reloads as expected. FB13152293

SFSpeechRecognizer is broken on iOS 18
Hello, I noticed that SFSpeechRecognizer is broken on iOS 18. During a recognition task, it keeps dropping the recognized text on every pause. For example, if you say "how are you fine", it will drop the "how are you" part and only give you "fine" as the result. Say "how are you <pause> fine" // iOS 17 ✅ (perfect final result) How How are How are you How are you. How are you. Fine. // iOS 18 ❌ How How are How are you How are you Fine (the text before the pause is dropped, and fail to recognize the punctuations.) Reproducing the issue: Download the official sample project. Run it on an iOS 18 device or simulator. Say "how are you fine" Only "fine" will be displayed.

Xcode Cloud: All Targets Suddenly Timeout During Archive
Hi everyone, Starting today, my Xcode Cloud CI workflow can no longer successfully build iOS/macOS/visionOS targets. The Archive step does not report any errors, but the xcodebuild command hangs indefinitely and eventually fails with the following message: The step invocation hit a user timeout. The xcodebuild archive invocation timed out. No activity has been detected on stdout, stderr or the result bundle in 30 minutes. My iOS and macOS targets can still be built, but the build time has increased by 2-3x compared to before. That's interesting. After I removed the visionOS target, the iOS target also failed to build. Additionally, since today, I’ve noticed a significant increase in network-related errors in Xcode Cloud. There have been multiple failures to download dependencies from Homebrew or GitHub. I have confirmed that CI versions which previously built successfully are now failing, while running the same build commands locally works fine. Based on these observations, I suspect there may be an issue with the Xcode Cloud environment itself. Has anyone else encountered similar problems? Any suggestions or updates would be appreciated! Thanks!

iOS-App-On-Mac app unable to restore purchases or IAP receipt due to file permission issue
Hello! I found that on the latest macOS 13 Ventura, my iOS app (iOS-App-On-Mac-With-M1/M2-Chip) is not able to restore IAP purchases or refresh receipt anymore. When using SKReceiptRefreshRequest() to refresh the IAP receipt, I got following error. Error Domain=SKErrorDomain Code=0 "An unknown error occurred" UserInfo={ NSLocalizedDescription=An unknown error occurred, NSUnderlyingError=0x1330c1840 { Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=500 "(null)" UserInfo={ NSUnderlyingError=0x13338ebf0 { Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don’t have permission to save the file “receipt” in the folder “StoreKit”." UserInfo={ NSFilePath=/Users/***/Library/Containers/EC7E888F-3388-418A-92C5-9CBDDC4A1846/Data/StoreKit/receipt, NSUnderlyingError=0x13333a790 { Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted" } } } } } } It seems that the receipt cannot be refreshed due to a file permission issue. Also, the SKPaymentQueue.default().restoreCompletedTransactions() function does not get the purchases properly (but also does not report an error). This issue only appears in my iOS app on macOS 13 Ventura.

Swift 5.7 compiler doesn't check API availability of PropertyWrapper
I found that in Xcode 14.2 (Swift 5.7), the compiler is unable to check the API availability of PropertyWrappers. For example, SwiftUI.StateObject was introduced in iOS 14, but when compiling for iOS 13, the compiler doesn't give an error. This leads to runtime dylib errors. struct ContentView: View { class Data: ObservableObject {} @StateObject private var data = Data() // 🤔️ No compiler error when targeting iOS 13 var body: some View { Text("Hello") } } The app will crash on iOS 13. dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _$s7SwiftUI11StateObjectV12wrappedValueACyxGxyXA_tcfC However, when we use StateObject in a regular statement, the compiler gives an error as expected. This is the correct behavior. init() { _data = StateObject(wrappedValue: Data()) // 'StateObject' is only available in iOS 14.0 or newer } So, it seems that the availability check for PropertyWrappers is not working.

Xcode 15 beta 5 + iOS 17 beta 4: AppShortcuts do not show up in Shortcuts app
In Xcode 15 beta 5 + iOS 17 beta 4, the AppShortcuts (or maybe Shortcuts app) is broken. The AppShortcuts defined in AppShortcutsProvider are not shown up in the Shortcuts app any more. Reproduce Code import SwiftUI import AppIntents @main struct LearnShortcutsApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { Text("Hello, world!") } } } struct MyAction: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "My Action" func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { return .result() } } struct MyAppShortcts: AppShortcutsProvider { static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { AppShortcut(intent: MyAction(), phrases: [ "Perform action with \(.applicationName)" ], shortTitle: "Perform My Action", systemImageName: "heart") } }

NavigationStack on iOS 17: NavigationStack can't maintain cell selection effect and experiences jumping
When using NavigationStack and NavigationLink, even in very simple situations, the behavior is not normal. When tapping on a NavigationLink, the cell's selected state cannot be maintained. The selection effect is not visible when pushing and popping views. This makes it difficult for users to track their selected content and the current view. At the moment of tapping a NavigationLink, the scroll offset of the List jumps, which affects the experience very much. (Before tapping a cell, as long as the page is not at the top, it can be reproduced 100%)

Incorrect compact Dynamic Island layout on iOS 17
Hello, I noticed that the layout of compact Dynamic Island on iOS 17 is incorrect. The edge of the circle shape is unable to be aligned with the edge of Dynamic Island. However, the layout in Xcode Preview is just perfect. And this is also the same layout on previous iOS 16: If you try to workaround the issue by adding an offset to the view, it will be cropped by a misaligned circle.

Xcode Cloud: Unable to Notarize macOS App (Stuck in Infinite Waiting)
Hi everyone, I’m encountering an issue with Xcode Cloud when trying to notarize my macOS app. As shown in the screenshot, there are no errors in the logs, but the process gets stuck indefinitely. The message says: The post-action could not be completed because the build was canceled. No artifacts are generated at all. This problem started recently. Notarization works perfectly when I submit from my local Xcode, so it seems to be specific to Xcode Cloud. Has anyone else experienced this?

Xcode 15 + iOS 17 adds extra padding to widgets
Xcode 15 and iOS 17 now adds extra padding to widget content, which is inconsistent with iOS 16. Run on iOS 16: Same code run on iOS 17, with extra paddings: struct WidgetView : View { var entry: Provider.Entry var body: some View { LicenseView(entry: entry) .background(Color("WidgetBackground")) .modifier { if #available(iOS 17.0, *) { $0.containerBackground(for: .widget) { Color.white // to highlight the padding on iOS 17 } } else { $0 } } } }

Xcode 15 beta 1 failed to preview SwiftUI view in watchOS target
Hello! I can't preview the SwiftUI views of watchOS target in Xcode 15 beta 1, when the containing iOS app has a SPM dependency. Reproducing steps: Create a new watchOS app project (with a companion iOS app) in Xcode 15. Both iOS and watchOS ContentView can be previewed at this step. Add a Swift package to the iOS target (the package should be an iOS-specific package, not a watchOS one, for example, https://github.com/siteline/SwiftUI-Introspect) After you add the static library to iOS target, the watchOS preview no longer work anymore. If you check the error message, you can find the Xcode preview attempt to build the iOS package against watchOS SDK.

WidgetBundleBuilder crash on #available(iOS 18.0) check: WidgetBundleBuilder includes an unknown OS version
Hello! The WidgetBundleBuilder always crash on iOS 17 if there is a #available(iOS 18.0, *) check in the WidgetBundle body. I remember there was a compiler bug (something related to type hoisting) in the past, but that was fixed. This time the bug seems to be in the implementation of the result build itself.
