Crash reports stopped completely on 2026-07-28 — Organizer and App Store Connect both show zero crashes
Since 2026-07-28 I have received no crash reports at all — neither in the Xcode Organizer nor in App Store Connect. Before that date crash reports arrived regularly, and had done so consistently for the past year. This does not look like a filter or display artifact: The Organizer Crashes tab is empty for every filter range. App Store Connect shows no crashes for the same period. Crash reporting did not taper off. It went from arriving normally to nothing from one day to the next, and has stayed at nothing since. A third-party crash reporter in the same app still records fatal crashes, including within the last two days. Devices are crashing; the reports are not arriving at Apple. Reproduces in Xcode 26.6 and in Xcode 27.0 beta 4, so it is not specific to the beta or to a single Xcode installation. Already ruled out, none of which made any difference: Apple Developer Program License Agreement is accepted. Age Rating declaration is complete. Xcode account removed and re-added, certificates re-checked. Developer System Status logged an App Store Connect performance issue on 2026-07-29, 09:25–13:25 PDT, marked resolved. The timing is close to the onset, and crash reporting does not appear to have resumed since. Filed as FB24131907. Feedback Assistant shows "Recent Similar Reports: None", so as of today there is apparently no comparable report on file. Colleagues with unrelated apps on separate accounts are seeing the same thing starting at the same date, which is why I am posting rather than only filing. If you are affected, please reply with your FB number and the date your crash reports stopped. Several accounts showing the same onset date is what rules out per-app causes.

ControlWidgetToggle image design
I need help designing the image of a ControlWidgetToggle. do I understand correctly that I can only use an SFSymbol as image and not my custom image (unless setup via a custom SFSymbol)? is there any way I can influence the size of the image? I tried multiple SwiftUI modifiers (.imageScale, .font, .resizable, .controlSize) none of them seem to work. My image remains too tiny the image size of the on and off state is different. Seems to be enforced by the system. Is there any way to make both images use the same size? the on-state tints the image. Is there a way to set the tint color? .tint and .foregroundstyle seem to be ignored. Thank you for your help

Lock screen media controls for MusicKit/ ApplicationMusicPlayer
Hi, when using ApplicationMusicPlayer from MusicKit my app automatically gets the media controls on the lock screen: Play/ Pause, Skip Buttons, Playback Position etc. I would like to customize these. Tried a bunch of things, e.g. using MPRemoteCommandCenter. So far I haven't had any success. Does anyone know how I can customize the media controls of ApplicationMusicPlayer. Thank you.

How to use generated symbols from string catalogs in SPM packages
In WWDC25 Video "Explore localization with Xcode" they show how to use generated symbols from string catalogs. This is a great feature and I'd like to use it. However most of my code is split across smaller SPM packages. In the video they say at 19:20: Finally, generated symbols help you avoid boilerplate code in frameworks and packages. I've been able to use the refactoring tool to convert strings from my catalog to use generated symbols. Afterwards the code doesn't compile anymore: Type 'LocalizedStringResource' has no member '' Unfortunately the video only showcases this for frameworks but not for packages. Since they clearly speak about packages I'd like to learn how to use the feature for my packages.

How to observe SwiftData DB changes
How can one observe changes in the SwiftData DB? I'm aware that this is possible via Queries, but I need to fetch the data in background, so a query is not an option. I'm aware of the ModelContext.didSave / .willSave notifications, but these don't work with iOS 17. -> How can I observe changes to models of a certain type? I don't want to observe the whole database.

Several SwiftUI Stepper on watchOS
I'm showing several Steppers in a SwiftUI view on watchOS. When the user taps the steppers & turns the digital crown it's possible to select multiple of the steppers (green "focus" border) appears. I've tried to make the steppers mutually exclusive by using the following snippet, but it didn't work. `@FocusState private var value: StepperType?` [...] var body: some View { Form { ForEach(StepperType.allCases, id: \.self) { stepperCase in Stepper... .focused($value, equals: stepperCase) } } } Any ideas how I can prevent multiple Steppers from being "focused" by the crown at the same time?

Get Crash Reports for watchOS Apps
I hope I'm wrong on this one, but as far as I understand watchOS is not able to collect/ capture Mach Exceptions and Signals. Which is the majority of crashes happening on watchOS. I'm looking for a proper way to automatically receive crash reports from a watchOS app. If this truly is a system limitation there's no way any tool can workaround it. Does anyone know of a workaround or tool to automatically collect crashes on watchOS? (I'm aware that it's possible to do so manually)

Usage of `NavigationLink` and `.navigationDestination` causing console error logs
I'm using NavigationLink(value:label:) and .navigationDestination(for:destination:) in my SwiftUI watchOS app. However navigating in the app causes the system to emit the following errors to the console: <NavigationHostingControllerCache>: MISS at depth 1 in free stack [NavigationHostingControllerCache_UIKit] <_TtGC7SwiftUI32NavigationStackHostingControllerVS_7AnyView_: 0x125015000> containment skipped because sourceNavigationController or destination were nil or sourceNavigationController was equal to destination [NavigationHostingControllerCache_UIKit] Eject called for index: depth 1 in free stack Library: SwiftUI, Subsystem: com.apple.SwiftUI , Category: Invalid Configuration The navigation itself does work fine. I'm wondering there's something I can do to fix it or if this is an internal issue of the SwiftUI framework and cannot be addressed by me? (i.e. I can ignore this)

Create Matter Binding
I'd like to learn how a Matter "Binding" can be created on iOS, e.g. via the "Matter" Framework. I'm aware of the Matter Framework "Documentation" here. But since it's missing any real description or documentation it's not helpful to me atm. Any examples/ tutorials/ explanations are greatly appreciated.

iOS App Library Search Keywords
Hey everyone! I'm trying to make an iOS app discoverable (in the App Library) with different keywords than its display name. I've experimented with CFBundleName, but it hasn't worked, and I couldn't find any official documentation on it. Has anyone successfully done this or have any tips? I'd love to hear your insights!
