Invalid entitlement for core nfc framework. The sdk version '18.2' and min OS version '14.0' are not compatible for the entitlement 'com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.formats' because 'NDEF is disallowed'. Anyone knows what is the correct configuration SDK version and minimum iOS deployment target for NFC that has NDEF format?

I have a device. After pairing, it is shown as connected in the Bluetooth list of the mobile phone. Before iOS 18, I could retrieve the device through the retrieveConnectedPeripherals method, but after iOS 18, I cannot retrieve it. What is the reason? Because when the device is connected, it no longer sends broadcast packets. How can I retrieve the device?

Hi everyone, I am seeking clarification regarding the communication capabilities between an ESP32 microcontroller and Apple's latest devices, specifically the iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro, both equipped with USB-C ports. Background: MFi Certification: Historically, establishing communication between external devices and iOS devices required MFi (Made for iPhone/iPad) certification. But I remember this being necessary in the Lightning Cable to USB era. With the introduction of USB-C ports in recent iPhone and iPad models, there is an indication that MFi certification may no longer be necessary for certain peripherals. Perhaps I'm not confident on the terminology here: https://mfi.apple.com/en/who-should-join Project Requirements: I am working on a sensor research project that necessitates the collection of low-latency time-series data from an ESP32 microcontroller, which features a USB-C port. The data needs to be transmitted to an iPhone 16 Pro Max or iPad Pro. Bluetooth communication has proven insufficient due to its limited data transfer rates (~1.2 Mbps with L2CAP). While NEHotspot could be an alternative, it restricts the iPad's internet connectivity. Therefore, establishing a direct USB-C connection between the ESP32 and the iOS device appears to be the most viable solution. Questions: MFi Certification Necessity: Is MFi certification still required for an ESP32 microcontroller to communicate with iPhone 16 Pro Max or iPad Pro via USB-C? USB-C Communication Support: Do the iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro natively support serial communication over USB-C with microcontrollers like the ESP32? If not, are there recommended protocols or interfaces to facilitate this communication? App Development Considerations: Would developing a custom iOS application be necessary to handle data transmission from the ESP32 over USB-C? If so, are there specific APIs or frameworks provided by Apple to support this functionality? Data Transfer Rates: Considering the need for high-speed data transfer, are there any limitations or considerations regarding the data transfer rates achievable through a USB-C connection between the ESP32 and iOS devices? Thank you!

My phone broke a little bit ago, with the screen either flashing green or it being green continuously. I asked somebody who would know and he said that the connection from the motherboard to the screen is messed up. It’s refurbished so that makes sense. Since then, the issue has gone away. it stopped a few days ago but I have insurance on it through a third party and I’m wondering if I should still make a claim.

I am working on an iOS application that relies on CoreMotion Attitude, and I need clarification regarding the behavior of reference frames. According to the documentation, when setting the attitude reference frame to CMAttitudeReferenceFrameXTrueNorthZVertical: The Z-axis of the reference frame is vertical (aligned with gravity). The X-axis of the reference frame points to the geographic North Pole (True North). When a device’s orientation matches this reference frame, the roll, pitch, and yaw values reported by CMAttitude should be (0,0,0). However, in my testing: When I align the device’s position with the CMAttitudeReferenceFrameXTrueNorthZVertical reference frame by orienting the screen (device Z-axis) upward and the right side (device X-axis) toward north, the yaw value reported by CMAttitude is 90 degrees instead of the expected 0 degrees. To have CMAttitude report yaw as 0, I must instead orient the top side (device Y-axis) toward north. This seems to contradict my understanding that the X-axis of the device should be aligned with True North, to have the device match the attitude reference frame and have roll, pitch, and yaw values reported by CMAttitude should be (0,0,0). What I'm missing? Thank you for your time and assistance.

I purchased an iPad Pro M4 in early December, and since day one, I’ve been experiencing a recurring issue. Almost every day, at random times, the device freezes for 1–5 minutes and then restarts itself. The tablet is not under heavy load when this happens — I mainly use it for light tasks such as watching videos in a player or Safari browser, web surfing, and reading books. The issue has even occurred while the iPad was idle and locked; it froze, displayed the Apple logo, and rebooted. I brought the device back to the store where I purchased it, and they sent it for a diagnostic check. However, the experts concluded that the device is fully functional, and no defects were found. After one of these crashes, I noticed that my Apple Pencil started lagging (see video file IMG_5688.MOV). However, after another reboot, the issue with the Apple Pencil resolved itself. I’ve documented the issue with several video recordings showing the freezing and rebooting behavior, as well as error logs generated after such incidents. Device Details: Model: iPad Pro M4 Usage: Light tasks only (video streaming, web browsing, reading) Environment: No overheating, no resource-heavy applications running What could be causing this issue, and how can I resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! P.S. I’ve uploaded all the device logs and videos demonstrating the issue to Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_R0i_iazADWo5EgStrPdgmf1XjgPP_RC?usp=sharing

what do i do is it going down too fast?

Iphone 13 stuck on iOS beta 13 cant update it downloads but doesn‘t install have tried using a laptop didn't work my backup won’t work as well

Battery health reduced to 89 from 98 within 2 months on iPhone 15 Pro and Cycle Count is just 314. Is it the software update doing this?

Hello, I am currently working on a USB HID-class device and I wanted to test communications between various OSes and the device. I was able to communicate through standard USB with the device on other OSes such as Windows and Linux, through their integrated kernel modules and generic HID drivers. As a last test, I wanted to test macOS as well. This is my code, running in a Swift-based command line utility: import Foundation import CoreHID let matchingCriteria = HIDDeviceManager.DeviceMatchingCriteria(vendorID: 0x1234, productID: 0x0006) // This is the VID/PID combination that the device is actually listed under let manager = HIDDeviceManager() for try await notification in await manager.monitorNotifications(matchingCriteria: [matchingCriteria]) { switch notification { case .deviceMatched(let deviceReference): print("Device Matched!") guard let client = HIDDeviceClient(deviceReference: deviceReference) else { fatalError("Unable to create client. Exiting.") // crash on purpose } let report = try await client.dispatchGetReportRequest(type: .input) print("Get report data: [\(report.map { String(format: "%02x", $0) }.joined(separator: " "))]") case .deviceRemoved(_): print("A device was removed.") default: continue } } The client.dispatchGetReportRequest(...) line always fails, and if I turn the try expression into a force-unwrapped one (try!) then the code, unsurprisingly, crashes. The line raises a CoreHID.HIDDeviceError.unknown() exception with a seemingly meaningless IOReturn code (last time I tried I got an IOReturn code with the value of -536870211). The first instinct is to blame my own custom USB device for not working properly, but it doesn't cooperate with with ANY USB device currently connected: not a keyboard (with permissions granted), not a controller, nothing. I did make sure to enable USB device access in the entitlements (when I tried to run this code in a simple Cocoa app) as well. ...What am I doing wrong here? What does the IOReturn code mean? Thanks in advance for anybody willing to help out!

For the "Required device capabilities" in my info.plist I have: iPhone Performance Gaming Tier iPad Minimum Performance M1 But a beta test just informed me they cannot install on iPhone 16 Pro Max due to "incompatible hardware" I need to limit to iPhone 15 or newer and M1 or newer. I read that iPhone Performance Gaming Tier also limits iPads to M1 here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737946 Perhaps I should only use "iPhone Performance Gaming Tier" and by using "iPad Minimum Performance M1" it is not allowing it to be installed on an iPhone? It would be very nice if I could see what devices are supported by the current settings.

I have an Iphone Xsmax and the battery health is degraded to 69 i noticed whenever I put it on charge it just restarts and keeps doing that until I start using it or keep the screen on before it charges please is it my charger or it’s because the battery health has degraded to 69?

So the battery level value is in accurate returns the battery percentage in multiple of 5 values e.g. battery percentage is 42 but the api returns it as 40. So please fix the issue if possible because i checked that the devices running iOS versions below 17 appear to be working fine.

Background Information In the macOS operating system environment, Program A uses libusb to access USB devices that comply with the USB Mass Storage protocol. To enable Program A to start automatically after macOS boots, its corresponding plist file has been placed in the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory. Problem and Phenomenon Description Program A works well on macOS versions prior to 15.3, and it can access USB devices normally. However, on macOS 15.3, the following abnormal situations have occurred: A. Program A launched by launchd cannot access the USB device. Checking the logs reveals that the IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService call in the darwin_claim_interface function returns the error code e00002be. B. Program A launched from the terminal command line with sudo privileges can access the USB device normally, and the return value of the IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService call is 0.

Im having issue with OneDrive that is affected our company iPads. User are able to drag and drop any folder or files over and now they cant. they are on the latest update for OneDrive and the IOS. Can someone look at this and also i reach to Microsoft and they said that nothing have change on there end.

When are you guys going to fix the CarPlay issues with this new update? I use this for work and it’s really an issue. Nothing is working and it takes up entirely too much space.

Since tvOS 18.4 beta (22L5218l) i have the issue that When I turn off an Apple TV, the Apple TV and the connected TV turn off, but after a few seconds the devices start again. This never happened before. But now it is happening with 3 different Apple TV generations on 2 LG and 1 Telefunken TVs. All 3 Apple TV devices have been updated to tvOS 18.4 beta (22L5218l) and since then show this error.

We are experiencing problems with the USB port on iPad Pro 11 inch (M4) model number MVW13NF/A. Our custom peripheral device (based on Raspberry Pi Pico + tinyUSB stack, is configured as a network adapter class and has communication with our App over UDP protocol. Our device also acts as a DHCP server, providing the IP address for iPad. The problem can be described as a “bus stall” or "bus hold" after sleep mode. To reproduce it we just send the iPad into sleep mode using a power button, the USB bus on M4 goes to the suspended state and won’t resume anymore when we wake the iPad up. The problem has occurred since the upgrade to iOS 18.2.1 and has not been observed before on the previously installed iOS 17 on the same iPad Pro M4. Also, the problem does not happen on the iPad Pro 11 inch (3rd gen with M1) model number MHW73FD/A, with the same iOS 18.2.1 installed. The problem also does not arise, if we connect our device via USB hub to the same iPad Pro M4. We have tested different versions of tinyUSB stack (either included in RPi Pico SDK or native unpatched). The problem is independent of the library version. It occurs always if our device is connected directly to the USB port of iPad Pro (M4) with iOS 18. It also stays after upgrading to the latest iOS 18.3 (beta) In the attached logs is (reduced for clarity) debug output from tinyUSB library about events on the USB bus. These logs were captured via RTT debugging output, using Segger J-Link debugger, so logging process does not affect the timings on the USB bus. There are three logs attached, for cases 1: "iPad Pro M4 + iOS18" (i.e. problematic case), 2: "iPad Pro M1 + iOS18", and 3: "iPad Pro M4 + iOS18 + external USB hub" (they are non-problematic cases). case1_usbd_log.txt case2_usbd_log.txt case3_usbd_log.txt This was already posted as feedback with id FB16366509
