Dear Apple Developer Support Team, I am reaching out for assistance with two pending DriverKit entitlement requests. This is my first experience developing an application within Apple's ecosystem, and I recognize that my use case is somewhat unconventional. I may not have reached the appropriate support channel, so I would appreciate your guidance or assistance in directing this request to the correct team. We are currently evaluating the feasibility of adopting iPads for an internal enterprise application that communicates with our proprietary USB devices. These devices use the standard USB Communications Device Class (CDC), exposing a virtual serial port (UART). They work reliably on Windows, Linux, and macOS. To my surprise, I discovered that iPadOS does not provide general-purpose access to standard USB CDC serial devices. Based on my research, the recommended approach appears to be implementing a custom driver using DriverKit. We also use macOS as our primary development and debugging environment, so we would like to maintain a consistent DriverKit-based implementation across both platforms in macOS only for development. On September 30, 2026, I submitted the following entitlement requests: 1. Request GW966578ZB — DriverKit UserClient Access Requested entitlement: com.apple.developer.driverkit.userclient-access 2. Request 3HN2GMDFN5 — DriverKit / USB Transport Distribution Authorization Requested entitlements: com.apple.developer.driverkit com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb Unfortunately, I have not received any response or status update on either request in the three weeks since submission. At this stage, our work is strictly a proof of concept (POC). We are not requesting public distribution or App Store publication. Our immediate objective is to validate the technical feasibility of communicating with our USB devices from iPadOS before committing to Apple's platform for our enterprise solution. The lack of progress on these requests has effectively blocked our evaluation for three weeks, making it difficult to assess whether iPadOS is a viable platform for our intended use case. Apple Developer Team ID: R4PSRJ28G7 We are genuinely interested in adopting Apple's technology for our enterprise operations, but we need to establish technical feasibility before proceeding. I would appreciate any guidance that could help us move forward. Best regards,Alon Bar-Lev
