Can Apple Developer relations please reconsider my application to attend the workshop July 29-31 in Cupertino. As someone on the forefront of AI and solo engineer, getting guidance on launching alongside IOS26 would be really helpful. The unknowns of testing and distribution are a bit difficult to overcome. I do not have 2-5 person team. Its just me. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

What are the steps in order to safely partition a drive to run MacOS26 for testing on my main machine without corrupting the main machine, please advise? My machine is a Mac Pro M3 Max Apple Intelligence/Foundation Models DO NOT WORK on Parallels VM. I cannot afford to buy new machines. My current one is maxed out on GPU/CPU and memory. TIME SENSITIVE

I am using Foundation Models for the first time and no response is being provided to me. Code import Playgrounds import FoundationModels #Playground { let session = LanguageModelSession() let result = try await session.respond(to: "List all the states in the USA") print(result.content) } Canvas Output What I did New file Code Canvas refreshes but nothing happens Am I missing a step or setup here? Please help. Something so basic is not working I do not know what to do. Running 40GPU, 16CPU MacBook Pro.. IOS26/Xcodebeta2/Tahoe allocated 8CPU, 48GB memory in Parallels VM. Settings for Playgrounds in Xcode Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi Apple team, When using AppShortcutsProvider, I hit the hard limit: Each app may have at most 10 App Shortcuts. This feels limiting for apps that offer multiple workflows and would benefit from deeper Siri integration. Could this cap be raised — ideally to 30 — to support broader use of AppIntents, enhance Siri automation, and unlock more system-level capabilities? AppShortcuts are a fantastic tool. Increasing the limit would make them even more powerful. Thanks!

How do I test the new RecognizeDocumentRequest API. Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-GCNsXdKzM I am running Xcode Beta, however I only have one primary device that I cannot install beta software on. Please provide a strategy for testing. Will simulator work? The new capability is critical to my application, just what I need for structuring document scans and extraction. Thank you.

Downloaded XCode Beta Version 26.0 beta (17A5241e). However the user interface is the same as public release Xcode. No Glassy tab navigation or LLM interface.. Also Foundation Models Framework unavailable or cannot be found. PLEASE HELP!?? Am I missing a configuration? What are the steps to get this working. I am on the latest Mac Sequoia 15.5 OS.

Hello, I am new application developer that has been developing several applications in the productivity and finance sections concurrently for about 1 year. One of my applications is nearly ready to be submitted to the App Store. I have received a lot of discouragement from people who have submitted apps in regards to putting submitting as a paid app, however due to all of the upfront and ongoing investment I've made, I do not wish to release my application for free initially. (I am learning how to best integrate storekit and in-app purchases and subscriptions, but I'm not ready to implement that yet) QUESTION: When releasing an app as a paid app and then converting to a FREE app with subscription later on, is there anything I need to be aware of technically or in regards to guidelines so I don't shoot myself in the foot when changing pricing? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
