VisionOS Destination question
I've been pouring over the code for Apple's visionOS demo: "Destination" trying to figure out something about its skybox. (not really a box, there, Apple). The skybox contains a 360deg panorama, but only one half shows with the other half fades out to nothing. I cannot find anywhere there is an alpha channel being set, a lighting or material effect causing that. But "alpha" doesn't show up and the only gradients are use to make controls standout a little more in its window. I need a full panorama that shows., no fading.

staged files not really being staged
I am in a weird twilight-zone of a git problem in xcode. I specify some files to be staged and it fails to do with no warning of any sort. So I cannot commit them or apply stashed changes to them. I can do it one.file.at.a.time. I have over 11k intermediate files that .gitignore won't ignore, nor stage nor commit to do anything so I could stop tracking them.

muting SIRI via AppIntents
We're using App Intents to launch are control our app via Siri. Siri's responses have been fairly random, some with a "Done" popup, others with a verbal confirmation, others saying "I'm sorry, there's been a problem". The latter is bogus and doesn't look good to potential investors when the app is actually working fine. There appears to be no way in code that I've been able to find so far that would have been tell Siri to STFU. Let us handle our own errors. Otherwise is there a means to supply Siri with a dictionary of restored messages that could be triggered inside the app?

Getting rid of Siri's "Something went wrong" message
I am working on an app that links into Siri with Appintents. The user gives a command, the app is launched, does some magic and returns, via Siri ,custom success or fail messages. Most of the time. However, sometimes Siri kicks in its own "Something went wrong, please try again message". But something hasn't gone wrong. How can I stop those and ensure our own messages dependably make it through, regardless. The only thing is that there might be timeout issue, but usually our operation is completed after only a couple of seconds. Doesn't look good during investor demos.

Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile:... doesn't support the Near Field Communication Tag Reading capability.
Anyone know what exactly this means? I have enabled in Capabilities Near Field Communications Tag Read in the Xcode project AND just to make sure added it in by hand in the app certificate section on the website, yet keep on getting the error started in the title: "/Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: --------" doesn't support the Near Field Communication Tag Reading capability." Ive taken an Apple demo and it works right out of the box. Any ideas?

ApplePay: Flexible payments/scheduling
On Applepay's docs it talks about the ability to do "flexible" payments and scheduling for future purchases. We need to be able to make only a single approval of an Apple payment for multiple submissions later on. Think, deferred payments at an arbitrary schedule without presenting the ApplePay dialog each and every time. The docs suggest that may be possible, but are maddeningly vague on how to do that. Is it possible or not? Can we store an approved merchant's token for example and leverage that for future transactions?

Transaction.currentEntitlements failing every time
I am shown as being subscribed to our service in the Subscriptions list in settings yet when going to the Storekit2 page in my app it shows me as NOT being subscribed and is unresponsive. I select Restore Subscription, that grays briefly, asks for a password, then returns to blue and nothing else happens. Bouncing back and forth between monthly and yearly likewise gives no response. The Transaction.currentEntitlements seems to be empty so it thinks the user is not subscribed. I have unsubscribed, and resubscribed via the Settings page to no avail.

Startup screen jumps to the right
My startup screen (not using a formal splash screen) opens up and almost immediately jumps to the right about 50 pixels. Not sure if this is notch related but I suspect it is. Any ideas?

Compatible with iPad, (But not iPhone??)
I have an iPhone VR app, but on the appstore page it says "Compatible with iPad". The full VR effect was only with the iPhone, but it's not showing that, nor is there any apparent way to set that in the metadata. So I am assuming that's automated. Any ideas how to fix it?

Vanishing swiftdoc, swiftsourceinfo, swift module files
In prep for a push this evening did the usual clean and rebuild. But now I'm getting errors that it can't find files with .swiftdoc, swiftsourceinfo, and swiftmodule files. The few postings I can find about that said that reinstalling xcode fixed it, well , not i my case. Any ideas short of reconstructing the entire project from scratch?

Appstore Connect: MIssing Submit button
I'm trying to submit a build to external test for some important investor demos but the Submit button has vanished. Been like that for several hours and we really need to get this out. Has it moved somewhere?

How to not automatically get Sidebar in iPad version of app
My iPhone app works fine. I launch it on the iPad and it decided for me that it wanted my main screen to be a sidebar. How do I tell it to "don't do that!!"

Getting Hide my Email when not a icloud+ user
About 3 weeks ago, when I start filling in a form on my app, I would get the "hide my email" feature. That is supposed to be a feature of iCloud+ which I do not have. Anyone come across this and know how to turn it off without signing up for iCloud+ ?

Active subscription showing expired in Storekit2
We have a user that has an active subscription according to the appstore in our product but it is registering as expired. Hitting the subscribe button in the SwiftUI SK2 dialog does nothing, meaning, nothing happens. Any ideas?
