Screen time
Hi I want to use the new iOS 16 Screen time API to show a block page over Safari and Chrome when the user enters an "adult-content" page like a gun store, allowing it to continue searching on the internet if the user wants. Any tips on how to do this? Thanks in advance

Content Filter iOS
Hi Community: I want to know (if someone knows) why content filters are only available for: Supervised devices Apps with Screen time, but only for children. Is that make any sense while in Mac is supervision is not needed? Why adults cannot decide to use a built in content filter instead of using screen time pre-filter by them selves? Are they no conscious about what are they doing? Are there any UX question to not open this powerful tool to improve an iOS user experience guided by third parties? Thanks in advance.

App Store app size vs real one
Hello: I was checking the app size on the AppStore and seems like it is randomly different from one app to others. For example one app shows 27.6MB in the App Store and then when you download the size is 51.9 MB and 2.5MB of documents and data whereas another marks 88.8MB and then when you download the size is 86.3 MB and 2.5MB How the AppStore calculate these sizes?

Getting error in previews when are inside of a static framework
Previews don't work when are inside of a static framework. Has anyone experimented it also? MessageSendFailure: Message send failure for update ================================== |  RemoteHumanReadableError: Unknown preview provider "Provider_Previews_" |   |  XCPreviewAgent does not contain a preview provider named "Provider_Previews_".

Network extensions are not available when building for Mac Catalyst.
We are building an app that support Mac Catalyst and network extension is included in. We don't know why the compiler throw this error: Network extensions are not available when building for Mac Catalyst. The documentation related to network extensions (in this case NEFilterDataProvider) in apple docs said explicitly that Mac catalyst is available. @eskimo @meaton please let me know if there's a bug with it. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/networkextension/nefilterdataprovider

Code coverage. SwiftUI Wrong Executable Lines
Hi community: I noticed that each closure is counted as lines in code coverage (unit tests) (Xcode 14.1.0) in a swiftUI File. I mean, If you coded and VStack that involves another HStack, and HStack contains 4 lines, and the VStack contains 6 lines counting the HStack. The total executable lines should be 6 (6 lines in the file). But Xcode count 10, counting twice the HStack lines. Is it a bug, or is it correct? You know, I don't know if Apple has another concept about executable lines. Also, Is it possible to remove previews with any configuration from code coverage or constant files? Thanks for all.

Error when trying to preview using Mac as Preview Device from Dynamic framework
Hi community: I came up with an error when I tried to preview a view with Mac as Device. The view is done inside a dynamic framework. The framework is compatible with Mac Catalyst. The Xcode version is 14.2.0 HumanReadableNSError: connectToPreviewHost: Failed to connect to 62826: Error Domain=com.apple.dt.ProcessAttachUtilities Code=0 "Failed to get task for pid 62826: 0" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to get task for pid 62826: 0} com.apple.dt.xcodepreviews.service (17): ================================== |  MessageSendFailure: Message send failure for Connecting to launched interactive agent 62826 Any kind of preview displays the error (only on Mac, on other devices it works as expected). Is there any workaround? Thanks in advance

Error on Ventura 13.3 when trying to distribute Mac Catalyst app through AppStore
Hi community: I'm getting an error when I try to distribute Mac Catalyst app through AppStore. This not happened with Ventura 13.3 RC(yesterday in Xcode cloud), same Xcode version (14.2) I'm thinking that maybe is problem related to Xcode cloud (because in local works fine same archive but signed and uploaded from local), but I don't know NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Multiple binaries share the same codesign path ... Binaries: /Applications/exampleApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/NewFramework.framework/NewFramework /Applications/exampleApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/NewFramework.framework/Versions/Current/NewFramework This can happen if your build process copies frameworks by following symlinks. } Anyone came across with that and resolve it?

Xcode Cloud queued for hours
I made a workflow in Xcode Cloud, and for months it worked okay, but today it has jobs with actions queued for hours. Is that expected? I mean the status page said that all works as expected. I didn't find other posts related to it. Thanks in advance
