TestFlight IOS18 and IOS26 builds CONFUSING
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.

Paid App to Free App with Subscription Conversion - New Dev Question
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.

Vision Framework - Testing RecognizeDocumentsRequest
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.

App Shortcuts Limit (10 per app) — Can This Be Increased?
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 set a custom icon for an app control that appears in Control Shortcuts (swipe down from iOS) ? Where is the documentation for size and where to put the image, format etc? Thank you. Working Code (sfsymbol) import Foundation import AppIntents import SwiftUI import WidgetKit // MARK: - Open App Control @available(iOS 18.0, *) struct OpenAppControl: ControlWidget { let kind: String = "OpenAppControl" var body: some ControlWidgetConfiguration { StaticControlConfiguration(kind: kind, content: { ControlWidgetButton(action: OpenAppIntent()) { Label("Open The App", systemImage: "clock.fill") } } }) .displayName("Open The App") // This appears in the shortcuts view } } Sample Image These apps use their own image. How can I use my own image?
