Comment on Possible to query for song by Apple Music trackId?

Hi @JoeKun! I tried this out but the app crashes with exception: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'MPMediaPropertyPredicate cannot filter using the playbackStoreID property.'

Comment on Deleting Forum Posts

I agree, it could be an accidental duplicate, or you simply decided it’s not the right question to ask because for example you misunderstood something or decided to take a different approach. It generally just feels kinda wrong to not be able to delete your data.

Comment on Possible to query for song by Apple Music trackId?

Thanks @JoeKun, that's an interesting approach. Looks like there's a new native SDK that may be able to accomplish the same thing as the Web SDK you've linked to? Would you happen to have any sample/pseudo code to demonstrate the idea? Thanks!

Comment on How to get NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to sync in background

Thanks, though I believe that would not be necessary to achieve this since the app can trigger the widget to reload. What we need is the main iOS app to enable NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to sync in the background right, is that possible?

Comment on Is it ok to get fullSizeImageURL by requesting content editing input to share photos?

Thanks, this is what I’m using now, I then convert that data to a UIImage to share, but this has several problems noted above :)

Comment on Is it ok to get fullSizeImageURL by requesting content editing input to share photos?

I ended up using PHAssetResource to get the resource then call PHAssetResourceManager.writeData to save the image to a temporary file. That way I can still share an array of file URLs. Nice thing about this is it shows metadata in the share sheet, most useful when sharing a single file.

Comment on App hangs while opening from background

I've not noticed this before, but am encountering it in iOS 17.2. The difference in my crash stack trace is after -[MPMusicPlayerApplicationController _establishConnectionIfNeeded] I have -[MPMusicPlayerController _validateServer] + 128. FB13308546 includes crash reports and a sysdiagnose.

Comment on Time zone for PHAsset creationDate

You’re right that Photos knows the asset’s time zone. You can even change it in Adjust Date & Time. Where in the EXIF metadata is the time zone? I only see dates without time zone info.

Comment on Time zone for PHAsset creationDate

The problem with translating an asset’s location to TimeZone is iOS allows you to change the time zone via Adjust Date & Time (and there may not even be a location). It seems we need an API to expose its time zone.
