I have downloaded the ShinyTV example to test simplified sign-in on tvOS since it is not working in my own app, and I am having the same issue there. After assigning my team to the sample app, the bundle ID updates with my team id. I copy the bundle ID into a file entitled "apple-app-site-association" with this format: { "webcredentials": { "apps": [ "{MyTeamID}.com.example.apple-samplecode.ShinyTV{MyTeamID}" ] } } I upload the file to my personal site, ensuring that the content type is application/json. I adjust the Associated Domain entitlement to: webcredentials:*.{personal-site.com}?mode=developer using the alternate mode to force it to load from my site, not the CDN. When I run the build on tvOS, and click the Sign In button, it fails with these errors: Failed to start session: Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 "Failed to prepare authorization requests" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 \"Missing associated web credentials domains\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Missing associated web credentials domains}" ), NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to prepare authorization requests} Session failed: Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 "Failed to prepare authorization requests" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 \"Missing associated web credentials domains\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Missing associated web credentials domains}" ), NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to prepare authorization requests} ASAuthorizationController credential request failed with error: Error Domain=com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError Code=1004 "(null)" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 \"(null)\"" )} Failed with error: Error Domain=com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError Code=1004 "Failed to prepare authorization requests" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=com.apple.CompanionServices.CPSErrorDomain Code=205 \"Missing associated web credentials domains\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Missing associated web credentials domains}" ), NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to prepare authorization requests} What am I missing here?

We have a subscription WeatherKit app which has been on the App Store since December 2023. I am getting intermittent JWT auth failures on customer devices. In the great majority of cases, the request succeeds, but sometimes it fails, and sometimes it fails and never recovers. I’m working with a customer right now who is unable to get any weather data at all, and the logs he sends me show WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors error 2 The app uses the WeatherKit SDK (we are not using the REST API directly). We know we have the project setup as it has been working since launch, and I can verify weatherkit using security cms -D -i embedded.mobileprovision It it not a problem with the specific query, since I can get data for the dates and locations they are requesting. I can’t replicate the problem on my test devices. In case there is a rate limit issue: this app is a bit unusual and downloads an unusual amount of data at once using multiple queries in parallel using a TaskGroup. When the user creates a location, the app downloads a 10 day block of weather (7 days in the past + 3 day forecast) using WeatherService.shared.weather( for: location, including: WeatherQuery.daily( startDate: startDate, endDate: endDate ), WeatherQuery.hourly( startDate: startDate, endDate: endDate ) ) It also downloads about 2 months of daily precipitation data using multiple parallel calls to dailySummary in 10 day blocks: WeatherService.shared.dailySummary( for: location, forDaysIn: DateInterval(start: startDate, end: endDate), including: .precipitation ) In almost every case, including on my test devices, this works. But some users get WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors error 2 on every request. The two users yesterday that had this problem were both on iOS 18.5 for what that's worth, though the app supports 17.2+ Is anyone else seeing this? And can anyone suggest anything else to explore? It's obviously a terrible experience for customers who pay for the service and are unable to get any data. I did submit this info to Apple as FB18276275

Hi everyone, on iOS, when a VoIP call arrives and the user accepts it from the lock screen (after unlocking with Face ID/Touch ID), is there any way to automatically bring my app to the foreground and show the in-app call screen, instead of staying in the system CallKit UI?

I have installed the macOS 26 WWDC beta on a secondary volume, and set it up with two user accounts (both administrators). However, the options for switching users without fully logging out are nowhere to be found. The topic is still included in macOS Help and is shown when searching for “fast” in System Settings, however, the option is hidden/missing in the pref pane when selected. Filed FB18155517 (macOS 26 beta: No Fast User Switching?)

I created a ShieldConfigurationExtension in Xcode 14.3 with File > New > Target > ShieldConfigurationExtension. This created the extension with all the necessary Info.plist values (correct NSExtensionPrincipalClass, etc.), with the extension included in embedded content in the host app target. No matter what I try, the extension is not getting invoked when I shield applications from my host app. The custom UI does not show as the shield, and looking at the debugger, an extension process is never invoked. I am shielding categories like this: let managedSettings = ManagedSettingsStore() ... managedSettings.shield.applicationCategories = .all() And my extension code overrides all the ShieldConfigurationDataSource functions. class ShieldConfigurationExtension: ShieldConfigurationDataSource { override func configuration(shielding application: Application) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding application: Application, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } override func configuration(shielding webDomain: WebDomain, in category: ActivityCategory) -> ShieldConfiguration { return ShieldConfiguration( backgroundBlurStyle: UIBlurEffect.Style.systemThickMaterial, backgroundColor: UIColor.white, icon: UIImage(systemName: "stopwatch"), title: ShieldConfiguration.Label(text: "You are in a Present Session", color: .yellow) ) } } What am I missing?

I'm working with the Apple Watch's acceleration data and have referred to the document Identify the coordinate axes of the device. According to this document, the X-axis points to the right side of the watch, the Y-axis points towards the top side, and the Z-axis points towards the user. However, when I place the watch on a flat surface and move it horizontally to the right, I observe that the X-axis acceleration is negative. Similarly, when I move the watch vertically upwards, the Y-axis acceleration also shows a negative value. Is this expected behavior, or am I misunderstanding something about the coordinate system or acceleration readings?

In the documentation for the example Live Caller ID server (https://swiftpackageindex.com/apple/live-caller-id-lookup-example/main/documentation/pirservice/testinginstructions) there is an example service-config.json. file shown (without thorough documentation). That config file, and the whole of the instructions, center around there being two datasets of numbers: block and identity. My question is - is it possible for more than one dataset to be specified i.e. for block1 and block2 to be specified? The use case for this would be - suppose the Live Caller ID server has a set of numbers it has identified as being nuisance callers and so it lists these in the block section. However user A might want all these nuisance callers to be blocked but user B does not. Therefore the Live Caller ID extension on the handset would need to use a different dataset on the server so that user A's calls from a set of numbers is blocked, but user B's are not. Note that I'm not suggesting that the Caller ID server should be capable of storing individual user's preferences. All that would be required would be two data sets: one where blocked content is none and and one where blocked content is some. Then a user/app could switch between them as indicated by the user. Is that possible? If the database structure and service-config.json etc. is not configured to permit that, then could two different servers be set up to achieve this instead? i.e. so the server url specified in the app's extension can be set at run time and not at compile time?

Hi, Since I updated my phone to 23A341, my Call filtering app is not blocking calls anymore. Same release checked on iOS 18 phone, it is working. I still see the callkit logs into the Console showing that numbers are loaded into the iOS-managed SQlite DB but the calls are not blocked nor identified. Anyone with the same issue? BR

The functionality of authorizationStatus and requestAuthorization is completely broken. I'm using Xcode 15.3 and iOS 17.4. Does anyone have a solution? authorizationStatus doesn't behave as promised Revoking authorization in the system-wide settings does not change the authorizationStatus while the app is not closed. Calls to center.authorizationStatus will still return .approved instead of .denied. Even closing and relaunching the app after revoking authorization does not work: authorizationStatus is then .notDetermined when it should be .denied. Tapping "Don't Allow" in the alert shown after an initial call to requestAuthorization leaves the authorizationStatus unchanged, i.e. at .notDetermined. This is contrary to the promised outcome .denied (defined as: "The user, parent, or guardian denied the request for authorization") and contrary to the definition of .notDetermined (defined as: "The app hasn’t requested authorization", when it just did). Same issue when first tapping "Continue" followed by "Don't Allow" on the next screen. As a consequence of authorizationStatus being broken, its publisher $authorizationStatus is worthless too. requestAuthorization doesn't behave as promised This is most likely a consequence of the corrupted authorizationStatus: when revoking authorization in the system-wide settings, a call to requestAuthorization opens the authorization dialogue instead of doing nothing. It is thus possible to repeatedly ask a user to authorize Family Controls. Code sample To reproduce, create a new SwiftUI app, add the "Family Controls" capability and a button executing the following task when tapped: let center = AuthorizationCenter.shared var status = center.authorizationStatus print(status) do { try await center.requestAuthorization(for: .individual) print("approved") } catch { print("denied") } status = center.authorizationStatus print(status)

We appreciate your suggestion to use the Apple Developer Forums. However, we must respectfully request further escalation of this issue beyond the forums for several critical reasons: Severity and Scope: This is not a general development discussion topic. We are facing a massive, reproducible performance issue on iOS 16 that renders devices unresponsive, requiring factory resets or DFU restores. This goes far beyond typical app bugs and points to a potential systemic issue in the OS's image handling. Insufficiency of Forum Support: While the forums are a valuable resource for community advice, they cannot provide the official, in-depth technical diagnosis from Apple engineers that this situation demands. Our users' devices are being bricked by an app update that passed App Review, and we require clarity on the root cause to prevent further damage and restore user trust. Code-Level Support Eligibility: As members of the Apple Developer Program, we believe our issue falls under the purview of Code-Level Support, as described on the Apple Developer website 9. Our problem involves "building or running software" and requires expertise in Apple's frameworks and hardware-level image rendering APIs. We request that our case be forwarded to that specialized team. To reiterate the core problem: Our update introduced 1024x1026 JPEG assets into the Asset Catalog. On iOS 16, this causes severe overheating, freezing, and device unresponsiveness. Replacing them with PNGs completely resolves the issue. This suggests a potentially serious regression in iOS 16's JPEG decoding or memory management pipeline. We prepared to provide a sample project that demonstrates the issue if required. Our case number is 102678393572. We urgently need to understand why this happens at the OS level to ensure our app is safe and to contribute to the stability of the iOS platform. Please escalate this case to the appropriate technical team for a detailed investigation. Sincerely,

The contacts app has fields for Phonetic and Pronunciation. My app adds phonetic data to the phonetic field to help Siri better understand contacts stored in Greek, Cyrillic, or Georgian. However, using the phonetic field causes the sorting order of contacts to be messed up. For example, Greek B (beta) is represented as a phonetic sound of V, resulting in a completely incorrect sorting order. The pronunciation field doesn’t seem to affect the sorting order, but I’m not sure what it does or should do. My questions are: Do we understand the difference between phonetic and pronunciation, and how Siri actively uses them? If the phonetic field is the correct one to use, how can we raise a feature request with Apple to add an option to sort contacts based on phonetic fields or not? Here’s a test you can try: Create a new contact with the following details: First name: test Last name: test Phonetic first name: Billy Phonetic last name: Idol Ask Siri to show the contact Billy Idol. It will return the “test test” contact. Switch from the phonetic to the pronunciation fields. Now, Siri won’t find Billy Idol.

With the Live Caller ID example server, the caller lookup dataset is defined in an input.txtpd and processed by running a ConstructDatabase command which creates a block.binpb and an identity.binpb file. In other words, a static input file is being processed into static block and identity files. However, in the real world, the data content for identified and blocked numbers is something which is in a constant state of flux and evolution, as new numbers becoming available, old ones become stale, numbers which were initially considered safe change into being considered malicious etc. etc. Is the example server just that, merely an example using fixed datasets, and an actual production server is able to use live every changing data to formulate its response back to the iPhone OS query? Here's a concrete use case - suppose it's a requirement to permit US nanp numbers but to block anything else. The total number of non US nanp numbers is so large and ever changing that it would be unfeasible to attempt to capture them in an input.txtpd file and then process that, and then to re-capture and re-process it endlessly. Instead what would be required is the ability for the Live Caller ID server to evaluate at query time, using a regular expressions for example, if a number is nanp or not. Is this possible?

I'm implementing the PushToTalk framework and have encountered an issue where channelManager(_:didActivate:) is not called under specific circumstances. What works: App is in foreground, receives PTT push → didActivate is called ✅ App receives audio in foreground, then is backgrounded → subsequent pushes trigger didActivate ✅ What doesn't work: App is launched, user joins channel, then immediately backgrounds PTT push arrives while app is backgrounded incomingPushResult is called, I return .activeRemoteParticipant(participant) The system UI shows the speaker name correctly However, didActivate is never called Audio data arrives via WebSocket but cannot be played (no audio session) Setup: Channel joined successfully before backgrounding UIBackgroundModes includes push-to-talk No manual audio session activation (setActive) anywhere in my code AVAudioEngine setup only happens inside didActivate delegate method Issue persists even after channel restoration via channelDescriptor(restoredChannelUUID:) Question: Is this expected behavior or a bug? If expected, what's the correct approach to handle incoming PTT audio when the app is backgrounded and hasn't received audio while in the foreground yet?

A message filter extension is only forwarded SMSs by the OS for filtering, iMessages aren't. But what is the situation with RCS messages? Will they be filterable by a message filtering extension?

In a project having both an app and a website, the following two website urls are to be handed over to the corresponding app: https://www.example.com/search?plus https://www.example.com/search?query=something In AASA file, this becomes: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": { "plus": "", "query": "?*" } } However, finally it does not work for both urls. Only the one with "query" works by hand over to app. For investigation, I have tried this for the problematic link: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": "plus" } and this works. How can I get both to work? (note that for the sake of brevity, only a portion of the AASA files are shown)

We have found a large number of memory-related crashes in iOS18, and multiple issues have finally pointed to this crash line xzm_xzone_malloc_tiny_outlined. Do not know how to solve it now

I have a home widget with buttons (new in iOS 17). In order to prevent taking action if the user taps on the widget buttons accidentally, I want to ask the user for confirmation. It appeared that requestConfirmation be exactly what I needed, but no confirmation view shows up when I invoke this method in the perform function. I have tried the following: try await requestConfirmation(result: .result(dialog: "Are you sure you want to do this?") { Image(.mdlsWhite) }) and this alternative: let confirmed: Bool = try await $name.requestConfirmation(for: self.name, dialog: IntentDialog(stringLiteral: msg)) Neither option work. I am starting to think that the requestConfirmation is not to be used with Home Widgets. Is there a better way to handle confirmations for buttons included in a Home Widget?

After building my app with Xcode 16 beta 6 I'm getting this warning in my AppIntents. Encountered a non-optional type for parameter: computer. Conformance to the following AppIntent protocols requires all parameter types to be optional: AppIntents.WidgetConfigurationIntent, AppIntents.ControlConfigurationIntent The intent looks something like this struct WakeUp: AppIntent, WidgetConfigurationIntent, PredictableIntent { @Parameter(title: "intent.param.computer", requestValueDialog:"intent.param.request_dialog.computer") var computer: ComputerEntity init(computer: ComputerEntity) { self.computer = computer } init() { } public static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Wake Up \(\.$computer)") } static var predictionConfiguration: some IntentPredictionConfiguration { IntentPrediction(parameters: (\.$computer)) { computer in DisplayRepresentation( title: "Wake Up \(computer)" ) } } @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog { } } According to the docs though specifying optional is how we say if the value is required or not. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/adding-parameters-to-an-app-intent#Make-a-parameter-optional-or-required So is this warning accurate? If so, how do I specify that a parameter is required by the intent now?

I am trying to send an anonymous XPC listener endpoint to my daemon from user context in order to be able to do some bidirectional XPC. I was trying to use the new XPCListener and XPCSession objects and the easiest method I figured was using the Codable version of the send() methods, in which I wanted to send the XPCEndpoint object - alongside the name of the anonymous endpoint (because I want to have more XPCEndpoints sent over, so I want to be able to identify them. However, trying to manually encode XPCEndpoint throws an exception: ERROR: Missing CodingUserInfoKey CodingUserInfoKey(rawValue: "_XPCCodable") Here is a simple command-line tool reproducing the issue: import Foundation import XPC let listener = try XPCListener(service: "mach-service.xxx.yyy", incomingSessionHandler: { $0.accept(incomingMessageHandler: { (msg: XPCReceivedMessage) in return nil }) }) var endpoint = listener.endpoint do { let endpointData = try JSONEncoder().encode(endpoint) print("EndpointData object: \(endpointData.count) bytes") } catch let error { print("ERROR: \(error)") } Wrapping my object into an XPCDictionary, then adding multiple keys alongside an "endpoint" key with the XPCEndpoint as value works, but XPCDictionaries are less ideal - they don't even support vanilla Data objects, only ones converted to an xpc_object_t with xpc_data_* functions Is this expected behavior? I shouldn't encode an XPCEndpoint myself? I am using the latest Xcode 26.0 beta, with deployment target of macOS 15.1, running on macOS 15.5. (Btw it's also incorrect that this XPCEndpoint API is available from macOS 15.0 - it cannot be found in Xcode 15.4 under macOS 15.5. At the very best it's backDeployed but this isn't mentioned in its public declaration.)

Using Apple SwiftUI Translate library: when calling: try await session.prepareTranslation() the first time, the API's Language Download sheet does not show (or shows briefly and dismisses immediately) Even when the sheet doesn't show, the keyboard is lowered, as though the sheet would be appearing, but then the keyboard raises as though the sheet was dismissed. The following Errors are printed in the console dozens of times; but on all subsequent executions, the API Language Download sheet shows as expected. The trigger code is in a function which is executed when a Translate button is tapped. Any ideas would be welcome!
