Any idea on when AppleRAW API's would be available?

Currently, I have an app that does not collect any user data. So the App privacy listing on the App Store is listed as "Does not collect any data." However, it still receives app crashes and other reports that are available via Xcode Organizer. I believe the user enables this via the prompt "Share analytics, diagnostics, and usage information with Apple" at the system level. So given above, do I need to change the listing to say it explicitly collects crash data?

I am trying to display HDR Images (ProRAW) within UIImageView using preferredImageDynamicRange. This was shown in a 2023 WWDC Video let imageView = UIImageView() if #available(iOS 17.0, *) { self.imageView.preferredImageDynamicRange = UIImage.DynamicRange.high } self.imageView.clipsToBounds = true self.imageView.isMultipleTouchEnabled = true self.imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit self.photoScrollView.addSubview(self.imageView) I pull the image from PHImageManager: let options = PHImageRequestOptions() options.deliveryMode = .highQualityFormat options.isNetworkAccessAllowed = true PHImageManager.default().requestImage(for: asset, targetSize: self.targetSize(), contentMode: .aspectFit, options: options, resultHandler: { image, info in guard let image = image else { return } DispatchQueue.main.async { self.imageView.image =image if #available(iOS 17.0, *) { self.imageView.preferredImageDynamicRange = UIImage.DynamicRange.high } } } Issue The image shows successfully, yet not in HDR mode (no bright specular highlights, as seen when the same image ((ProRAW) is pulled on the native camera app. What am I missing here?

On the WWDC24 session video 'Enhance your UI animations and transitions', Appls shows these new animation methods for UIKIT: switch gesture.state { case .changed: UIView. animate(.interactiveSpring) { bead.center = gesture.translation } case .ended: UIView. animate(spring) { bead.center = endOfBracelet ｝ ｝ As of iOS 18 Beta 2, I get an error for `UIView. animate(.interactiveSpring)` These new methods are not available yet?

I am following the Apple sample code and trying to add a manual focus lens position slider: @available(iOS 18.0, *) private func addCameraControls() { if !self.session.controls.isEmpty { for control in self.session.controls { self.session.removeControl(control) } } self.cameraControlFocusSlider = nil //Focus Slider if self.videoDevice!.isLockingFocusWithCustomLensPositionSupported { self.cameraControlFocusSlider = AVCaptureSlider("Focus", symbolName: "dot.square", in: 0.0...1.0) self.cameraControlFocusSlider!.setActionQueue(self.sessionQueue) { focusValue in //Do manual focus } if self.session.canAddControl(self.cameraControlFocusSlider!) { self.session.addControl(self.cameraControlFocusSlider!) } } } So there are these AVCaptureSessionControlsDelegate methods: final func sessionControlsDidBecomeActive(_ session: AVCaptureSession) { print ("sessionControlsDidBecomeActive") } final func sessionControlsWillEnterFullscreenAppearance(_ session: AVCaptureSession) { print ("sessionControlsWillEnterFullscreenAppearance") } final func sessionControlsWillExitFullscreenAppearance(_ session: AVCaptureSession) { print ("sessionControlsWillExitFullscreenAppearance") } final func sessionControlsDidBecomeInactive(_ session: AVCaptureSession) { print ("sessionControlsDidBecomeInactive") } So when self.cameraControlFocusSlider is presented, I have to show the current value of the lense position. Lens position can change from auto focus and also from manual focus by the user using the app UI. Is there a way to see if self.cameraControlFocusSlider is active or being used? Please note that I will have more than one AVCaptureSlider in the final code.

My implementation of LockedCameraCapture does not launch my app when tapped from locked screen. But when the same widget is in the Control Center, it launches the app successfully. Standard Xcode target template: Lock_Screen_Capture.swift @main struct Lock_Screen_Capture: LockedCameraCaptureExtension { var body: some LockedCameraCaptureExtensionScene { LockedCameraCaptureUIScene { session in Lock_Screen_CaptureViewFinder(session: session) } } } Lock_Screen_CaptureViewFinder.swift: import SwiftUI import UIKit import UniformTypeIdentifiers import LockedCameraCapture struct Lock_Screen_CaptureViewFinder: UIViewControllerRepresentable { let session: LockedCameraCaptureSession var sourceType: UIImagePickerController.SourceType = .camera init(session: LockedCameraCaptureSession) { self.session = session } func makeUIViewController(context: Self.Context) -> UIImagePickerController { let imagePicker = UIImagePickerController() imagePicker.sourceType = sourceType imagePicker.mediaTypes = [UTType.image.identifier, UTType.movie.identifier] imagePicker.cameraDevice = .rear return imagePicker } func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UIImagePickerController, context: Self.Context) { } } Then I have my widget: struct CameraWidgetControl: ControlWidget { var body: some ControlWidgetConfiguration { StaticControlConfiguration( kind: "com.myCompany.myAppName.lock-screen") { ControlWidgetButton(action: MyAppCaptureIntent()) { Label("Capture", systemImage: "camera.shutter.button.fill") } } } } My AppIntent: struct MyAppContext: Codable {} struct MyAppCaptureIntent: CameraCaptureIntent { typealias AppContext = MyAppContext static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "MyAppCaptureIntent" static let description = IntentDescription("Capture photos and videos with MyApp.") @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { .result() } } The Issue LockedCameraCapture Widget does not launch my app when tapped from locked screen. You get the Face ID prompt and takes you to just Home Screen. But when the same widget is in the Control Center, it launches the app successfully. Error Message When tapped on Lock Screen, I get the following error code: LaunchServices: store ‹private > or url ‹private > was nil: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo=&NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler} Attempt to map database failed: permission was denied. This attempt will not be retried. Failed to initialize client context with error Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo=&NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler} Things I tried Widget image displays correctly App ID and the Provisioning Profile seem to be fine since they work fine when the same code injected in to AVCam sample app and when used the same App ID's. AppIntent file contains the target memberships of the Lock Screen capture and Widget Apple compiles without errors or warnings.

let glassView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: UIGlassEffect(style: .clear)) glassView.frame = CGRect(x: 100, y: 200, width: 200, height: 400) self.view.addSubview(glassView) Though UIGlassEffect has two variants: .regular and .clear, even the clear one has some blur on the background. Is there a way to do get absolute no blur? Edges still have the glass effect. Apple does this in two places: Camera app: Text magnifier:

If the app is launched from LockedCameraCapture and if the settings button is tapped, I need to launch the main app. CameraViewController: func settingsButtonTapped() { #if isLockedCameraCaptureExtension //App is launched from Lock Screen //Launch main app here... #else //App is launched from Home Screen self.showSettings(animated: true) #endif } In this document: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/lockedcameracapture/creating-a-camera-experience-for-the-lock-screen Apple asks you to use: func launchApp(with session: LockedCameraCaptureSession, info: String) { Task { do { let activity = NSUserActivityTypeLockedCameraCapture activity.userInfo = [UserInfoKey: info] try await session.openApplication(for: activity) } catch { StatusManager.displayError("Unable to open app - \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } However, the documentation states that this should be placed within the extension code - LockedCameraCapture. If I do that, how can I call that all the way down from the main app's CameraViewController?
