NEURL Filter configuration approved under wrong Developer Team — resubmission blocked by duplicate domain
Hi, My NEURL Filter configuration (ID 9f3cbff8-63de-4c69-bf68-c19cd1c5d842) was approved on August 5, 2026, but it turned out to be attached to the wrong Apple Developer Team — an old individual account (S5VDH23BBZ) I no longer have access to, instead of my actual organization team, KRKJ76BC7W (SCOTTO), which owns and signs the app (bundle ID com.dropbet.DropBet). I contacted Developer Support, who said they couldn't transfer it and suggested replying to the original approval email — I did (on 08/08, then several times) with no response. I then tried resubmitting the same configuration under the correct team (KRKJ76BC7W), but the portal rejected it with: "A configuration with the same PIR Server Domain already exists." So a fresh submission is technically impossible while the original stays attached to the wrong account — the only real fix is transferring or re-attaching the existing approved configuration to KRKJ76BC7W. Has anyone dealt with this kind of Team ID mix-up before, or know who on the Network Extension / NEURL Filter team could help reassign an approved configuration? Happy to provide any additional details. Thanks in advance.

How to get approval for com.apple.developer.network-extension.content-filter entitlement on macOS (Mac App Store)?
I'm building a gambling addiction recovery app for macOS that uses NEFilterDataProvider to block 208,000+ gambling domains system-wide. The app is already live on the iOS App Store under the same developer account. I need the restricted entitlement com.apple.developer.network-extension.content-filter to distribute via the Mac App Store. I submitted a request through Developer Support > Development and Technical Information > Rights/Entitlements (case #102914968660) on June 14th — 9 days ago with no response yet. My questions: Is this the correct channel for requesting this entitlement for Mac App Store distribution? Has anyone successfully obtained this entitlement? What channel/process worked for you? Is there a typical turnaround time I should expect? Any guidance appreciated. Thanks

NEFilterDataProvider activation on consumer iOS — saveToPreferences fails (code 5), .mobileconfig requires MDM
Hello, I'm developing a gambling blocker app that uses NEFilterDataProvider. My app was approved on the App Store, but the core feature doesn't work for end users. I have the content-filter-provider entitlement. Issue 1 — saveToPreferences() fails in distribution builds In dev builds (Xcode direct install), NEFilterManager.saveToPreferences() works fine — iOS shows a permission dialog and the filter is registered. In distribution builds (TestFlight/App Store), it fails immediately: NEFilterErrorDomain code 5 — Operation not permitted Console log from nehelper: "Creating a content filter configuration is only allowed through profile in production version" Issue 2 — .mobileconfig profile requires MDM Following the Console hint, I tried a .mobileconfig profile with com.apple.webcontent-filter payload (ContentFilterUUID, FilterType: Plugin, PluginBundleID). On an unsupervised consumer iPhone (iOS 18.5), installation fails: Profile Installation Failed — MDM required Question: What is the correct mechanism to activate a NEFilterDataProvider on a consumer (non-MDM) iPhone in a distribution build? Is there a specific entitlement or approval process I'm missing? (DTS Case-ID: 20087732)
