TestFlight Call To Action With Essential Download
Hello, I was just installing an app from TestFlight that has an Essential Asset Pack that's a few GBs in size. It appears the Call To Action inside of TestFlight doesn't take into consideration the Background Asset download status before it changes from Installing to Open. I can't test if this is also the case for apps on the App Store, but I'd expect that it is.

Can not re-upload an Asset Pack that's been archived?
Hello, I'm trying to upload an asset pack that has the same identifier as an asset pack that I've archived. I understand this isn't likely a common scenario, but I'd expect that uploading an archived Asset Pack to become un-archived. Reverting to the next newest version available for the Asset Pack. Further, this restriction is not clear that you won't be able to reuse the assetPackID on the archive asset pack alert Archive Asset Pack? Are you sure you want to archive "[NAME]" asset pack? All versions of this asset will no longer be accessible by your app. Errors: Failed to create a new background asset pack version for '[NAME]'. (-19243) operation not allowed (409) Cannot create version for an archived background asset. (ID: 2cc6499a-83fa-4bbb-bc1f-0bb67d2a873d) httpBody: { "errors" : [ { "id" : "2cc6499a-83fa-4bbb-bc1f-0bb67d2a873d", "status" : "409", "code" : "STATE_ERROR.ARCHIVED_BACKGROUND_ASSET", "title" : "operation not allowed", "detail" : "Cannot create version for an archived background asset." } ]

How are Assets removed?
Hello, I'm trying to figure out the behavior of AssetPackManager.shared.remove(assetPackWithID: ). I'm working with MapKit tiles and currently working on trying projecting them correctly which involves serving the AssetPack locally, downloading, checking alignment, and then deleting and changing. My question is that remove(assetPackWithID: ) completes successfully and the asset pack is removed. This is confirmed by trying to remove the AssetPack again which throws an error. However, the asset is still appearing on MapKit after the removal. This is a bit odd as this persists not only with force killing, but also restarting the device. Please advise on how to properly remove an AssetPack. Thank you iPhone 15 Pro Max (iOS 26.0.1) iPhone 17 Pro Max (iOS 26.0.1)
