@Developer Tools Engineer Any comment on what happened or what was performed to resolve it? If none that can be shared, what is the best course of action if it occurs again? I will mark my feedback as resolved.

FWIW, Apple Music, as of iOS 17.3, still shows "Find Friends" -- "Apple Music will periodically check the contacts on your devices to recommend new friends.". Given ALL of the discover user APIs are deprecated, one only using CloudKit would then have to create a new record type that saves user contact info. By design, in order to query that data, it would have to be public otherwise you couldn't perform query operations on it against your contact info.

I spoke with the CloudKit team during WWDC23 about this feature. They said, unfortunately there is not a replacement and that I should file feedback. I did - FB12341314. The feedback got a reply saying there is not plans to replace the functionality. Apple Music is accessing user contacts if you look at App Privacy Report, previously it felt like they were using this feature to build their discover users. This feature was underrated and might be gone forever. I suggest you also file feedback.

+1 FB9069616 - Make MetricKit available for other Apple platforms

Thanks! I checked media manager and the 5.5 inch didn't get updated, looks like a mistake on my end. However, I think it was still expected that the link preview would take the 6.5 inch screenshot if previewing on an iPhone 13 Pro vs an SE given that the 5.8" display is falling back to 6.5. Here is to hoping I can change preorder screenshots with FB11255286.

@SebC99, does the documentation here seem correct to you? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/app_store/app_clips_and_app_clip_experiences if not, mind creating a feedback? I'm experiencing issues with App Store Connect portal and cannot edit my experiences and started to look at the API as a workaround.

For what it is worth, this size limit was increased to 15 MB for iOS / iPadOS 16 devices. DTS's answer should be marked as correct with respect to iOS 14/15 devices.

@Appeloper, have you made a feedback for this yet? Post your feedback number in here and I'll mention it in mine. FB10346298

I can confirm this workaround provided allows the simulator to run. I also filed a feedback: FB10328082

@eskimo and @grahm34, WWDC 2021, when asked how to integrate CloudKit where the entitlement is not available, the workaround was to use the CloudKit Web Services API. I don't think there is any way to programmatically log in (get an auth token) which would be required since you are saving records. Right now my AppClip performs read-only functions on CloudKit, but I'd be curious to see what you come up with!

As it happens to be, one of my NFC local experiences still works, even though the "Local Experience" is missing from Settings. But that doesn't help me demo to new businesses, just the ones I already have partnered with. :/

Thanks @MobileTen for the link. Ironically, when conforming the ApplicationDelegate to ObservableObject, its initializer gets hit first, then the application struct's; the order is changed. No conformance it is Application init THEN ApplicationDelegate. I haven't found documentation yet on the property wrappers describing initialization differences if the wrapped value conforms to ObservableObject or not.

This was still relevant in 2022. After I added the plist key the simulator wouldn't show the 'search in app' but after restarting the simulator it showed up as expected.

Thanks Matt, if I get things working in my main app target I'll be sure to rinse and repeat for the app clip. Since my Feedback and the reply I've learned more about CloudKit Web Services (for interacting via that App Clip). I assume I should expect the "DownloadURL" for the CKAsset representations to also be behind the same PKI / certs right?

Related to the assets, what hashing algorithm is used to produce the fileChecksum? "The signature of a file returned from the file upload step. This key is required for the public and private database." AssetDictionary. FB9826224
