New features for APNs token authentication now available
Team-scoped keys introduce the ability to restrict your token authentication keys to either development or production environments. Topic-specific keys in addition to environment isolation allow you to associate each key with a specific Bundle ID streamlining key management. For detailed instructions on accessing these features, read our updated documentation on establishing a token-based connection to APNs.

iCloud Mail being rejected by Barracuda Email Protection due to missing PTR record.
My client is using iCloud Mail with his custom domain and he communicated with many govt organizations which seem to all be using Barracuda Email Protection for their spam prevention. I have properly configured his SPF, DKIM & DMARC DNS records however his emails were still being rejected. (Email header below) I contacted Barracuda support with the email header and they replied saying that the emails were rejected becuase Apple Mail has missing PTR records. I have sent dozens of emails for testing and looking at all their headers I can see (ms-asmtp-me-k8s.p00.prod.me.com [17.57.154.37]) which does not have a PTR record. ----FULL EMAIL HEADER WITH 3RD PARTY DOMAINS REMOVED----- <recipient_email_address>: host d329469a.ess.barracudanetworks.com[209.222.82.255] said: 550 permanent failure for one or more recipients (recipient_email_address:blocked) (in reply to end of DATA command) Reporting-MTA: dns; p00-icloudmta-asmtp-us-west-3a-100-percent-10.p00-icloudmta-asmtp-vip.icloud-mail-production.svc.kube.us-west-3a.k8s.cloud.apple.com X-Postfix-Queue-ID: 8979C18013F8 X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; sender_email_address Arrival-Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2025 12:30:05 +0000 (UTC) Final-Recipient: rfc822; @****** Original-Recipient: rfc822;recipient_email_address Action: failed Status: 5.0.0 Remote-MTA: dns; d329469a.ess.barracudanetworks.com Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 550 permanent failure for one or more recipients (recipient_email_address:blocked) Return-Path: <sender_email_address> DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=sender_domain; s=sig1; bh=CyUt/U7mIHwXB5OQctPjRH/OxLH7GsLR54JjGuRkj9Y=; h=From:Message-Id:Content-Type:Mime-Version:Subject:Date:To:x-icloud-hme; b=hwEbggsctiCRlMlEgovBTjB/0sPRCb2k+1wzHRZ2dZNrZdOqvFSNWU+Aki9Bl8nfv eEOoXz5qWxO2b2rEBl08lmRQ3hCyroayIn4keBRrgkxL1uu4zMTaDUHyau2vVnzC3h ZmwQtQxiu7QvTS/Sp8jjJ/niOPSzlfhphqMxnQAZi/jmJGcZPadT8K+7+PhRllVnI+ TElJarN1ORQu+CaPGhEs9/F7AIcjJNemnVg1cude7EUuO9va8ou49oFExWTLt7YSMl s+88hxxGu3GugD3eBnitzVo7s7/O9qkIbDUjk3w04/p/VOJ+35Mvi+v/zB9brpYwC1 B4dZP+AhwJDYA== Received: from smtpclient.apple (ms-asmtp-me-k8s.p00.prod.me.com [17.57.154.37]) by p00-icloudmta-asmtp-us-west-3a-100-percent-10.p00-icloudmta-asmtp-vip.icloud-mail-production.svc.kube.us-west-3a.k8s.cloud.apple.com (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 8979C18013F8; Thu, 20 Mar 2025 12:30:05 +0000 (UTC) From: Marcel Brunel <sender_email_address> Message-Id: <2E8D69EA-FCA6-4F5D-9D42-22A955C073F6@sender_domain> Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="Apple-Mail=_F9AC7D29-8520-4B25-9362-950CB20ADEC5" Mime-Version: 1.0 (Mac OS X Mail 16.0 (3826.400.131.1.6)) Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] - Re: Brunel - 2024 taxes Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2025 07:29:27 -0500 In-Reply-To: <SA0PR18MB350300DE7274C018F66EEA24F2D82@SA0PR18MB3503_namprd18_prod_outlook_com> To: Troy Womack <recipient_email_address> References: <SA0PR18MB350314D0B88E283C5C8E1BB6F2DE2@SA0PR18MB3503_namprd18_prod_outlook_com> <9B337A3E-D373-48C5-816F-C1884BDA6F42@sender_domain> <SA0PR18MB350341A7172E8632D018A910F2D82@SA0PR18MB3503_namprd18_prod_outlook_com> <SA0PR18MB350300DE7274C018F66EEA24F2D82@SA0PR18MB3503_namprd18_prod_outlook_com> X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.3826.400.131.1.6) X-Proofpoint-ORIG-GUID: uqebp2OIbPqBr3dYsAxdFVkCNbM5Cxyl X-Proofpoint-GUID: uqebp2OIbPqBr3dYsAxdFVkCNbM5Cxyl X-Proofpoint-Virus-Version: vendor=baseguard engine=ICAP:2.0.293,Aquarius:18.0.1093,Hydra:6.0.680,FMLib:17.12.68.34 definitions=2025-03-20_03,2025-03-19_01,2024-11-22_01 X-Proofpoint-Spam-Details: rule=notspam policy=default score=0 bulkscore=0 clxscore=1030 suspectscore=0 mlxlogscore=999 mlxscore=0 phishscore=0 malwarescore=0 spamscore=0 adultscore=0 classifier=spam adjust=0 reason=mlx scancount=1 engine=8.19.0-2411120000 definitions=main-2503200077

How can I trigger the Full Disk Access prompt to write to a raw block device?
I want to write a disk image (ISO, img) to an SD card, but I always get permission errno 13 (permission denied). let diskPath = "/dev/rdisk99" guard let diskHandle = FileHandle(forWritingAtPath: diskPath) else { throw NSError(domain: "DiskWriter", code: Int(errno), userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "errno \(errno)"]) } It seems that when other macOS applications try to read from a raw block device it triggers an Access Removable Media prompt and when other applications try to write to a raw block device it triggers a Full Disk Access prompt. How can I trigger that prompt? And then how do I elevate my write to use that permission? P.S. I'm not a Swift coder, but I'd like to be... if it weren't that every "simple" thing I've tried launches me directly into a brick wall. :slight_smile: (not a criticism, just that the kinds of problems I like to solve tend towards uncommon and not as well supported in the ecosystem) What I've tried I did change Sandbox App to NO in MyApp.entitlements I have tried manually adding my Debug Archive to Full Disk Access Why? As to why I'm I interested in this: Well, it just seems silly that UI tools that do what dd does are hundreds of megabytes. Can't we do this in a UI that uses all the default macOS libraries and is just a few kilobytes (or megabytes at worst)?

Calendar "Today's Events" Issue
Device: iPhone 16 Pro iOS version: 18.3.2 The calendar widget (on home screen) is displaying "No more events today" even though there is an appointment scheduled later in the evening on the same day. I have looked through all the settings and nothing seems to work. How do I get it to display events that are on the calendar for rest of the day today. It does correctly display events that are upcoming tomorrow and next week. Thanks, -Harry

Is there a way to dynamically configure Actionable Notifications?
Hello, We are trying to implement Actionable Notifications on iOS via Remote Notifications. According to Apple’s official documentation (Declaring Your Actionable Notification Types), it is recommended to register notification categories at launch time. However, in our use case, the number of buttons and their actions in the Actionable Notification are determined at the time of the Remote Notification request. This means that we cannot predefine the categories at app launch but need to dynamically configure them based on the payload of the Remote Notification. Our Approach We are considering setting aps.mutable-content = 1 and using Notification Service Extension to modify the categoryIdentifier dynamically. Below is the JSON payload we plan to use for Remote Notifications: { "aps": { "alert": { "title": "New Message Received!", "body": "Check out the details." }, "category": "DYNAMIC_CATEGORY", "mutable-content": 1 }, "categoryData": { "id": "DYNAMIC_CATEGORY", "actions": [ { "id": "REPLY_ACTION", "title": "Reply", "options": ["foreground"] }, { "id": "DELETE_ACTION", "title": "Delete", "options": ["destructive"] } ] } } Questions: Can we dynamically configure Actionable Notifications based on the Remote Notification payload? If we set categoryIdentifier in Notification Service Extension’s didReceive(_:withContentHandler:), will users still see the correct action buttons even if the app is terminated? What is the recommended approach to dynamically configure Actionable Notifications at the time of receiving the Remote Notification, rather than at app launch?

NSUserActivity in application(_:continue:restorationHandler:) not recognized as INStartCallIntent
Hello, experts! I'm working on a VOIP application that handles audio calls and integrates with CallKit. The problem occurs when attempting to redial a previously made audio call from the system's call history. When I try to handle the NSUserActivity in the application(_:continue:restorationHandler:) method, it intercepts the INStartAudioCallIntent instead of the expected INStartCallIntent. Background Deprecation Warnings: I'm encountering deprecation warnings when using INStartAudioCallIntent and INStartVideoCallIntent: 'INStartAudioCallIntent' was deprecated in iOS 13.0: INStartAudioCallIntent is deprecated. Please adopt INStartCallIntent instead. 'INStartVideoCallIntent' was deprecated in iOS 13.0: INStartVideoCallIntent is deprecated. Please adopt INStartCallIntent instead. As a result, I need to migrate to INStartCallIntent instead, but the issue is that when trying to redial a call from the system’s call history, INStartAudioCallIntent is still being triggered. Working with Deprecated Intents: If I use INStartAudioCallIntent or INStartVideoCallIntent, everything works as expected, but I want to adopt INStartCallIntent to align with the current iOS recommendations. Configuration: CXProvider Configuration: The CXProvider is configured as follows: let configuration = CXProviderConfiguration() configuration.supportsVideo = true configuration.maximumCallsPerCallGroup = 1 configuration.maximumCallGroups = 1 configuration.supportedHandleTypes = [.generic] configuration.iconTemplateImageData = UIImage(asset: .callKitLogo)?.pngData() let provider = CXProvider(configuration: configuration) Outgoing Call Handle: When making an outgoing call, the CXHandle is created like this: let handle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: callId) Info.plist Configuration: In the info.plist, the following key is defined: &lt;key&gt;NSUserActivityTypes&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;INStartCallIntent&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; Problem: When trying to redial the audio call from the system's call history, the NSUserActivity received in the application(_:continue:restorationHandler:) method is an instance of INStartAudioCallIntent instead of INStartCallIntent. This happens even though INStartCallIntent is listed in NSUserActivityTypes in the info.plist and I want to migrate to the newer intent as recommended in iOS 13+. Device: iPhone 13 mini iOS version 17.6.1

Associated domain file for domain-bound code
We are looking to setup domain-bound codes for our app and need to add the associated domain file to our website. We currently do not use Universal Links or Password AutoFill. We have looked at the documentation but are not sure of what the contents of the association file should be to enable domain-bound codes if you are not using Universal Links or Password AutoFill. Can any assistance be provided?

CoreBluetooth and Swift strict concurrency checking
As of iOS 18.3 SDK, Core Bluetooth is still mostly an Objective-C framework: key objects like CBPeripheral inherit from NSObjectProtocol and does not conform to Sendable. CBCentralManager has a convenience initializer that allows the caller to provide a dispatch_queue for delegate callbacks. I want my Swift package that implements Core Bluetooth to conform to Swift 6 strict concurrency checking. It is unsafe to dispatch the delegate events onto my own actor, as the passed in objects are presumably not thread-safe. What is the recommended concurrency safe way to implement Core Bluetooth in Swift 6 with strict concurrency checking enabled?

Bluetooth name caching
I've enjoyed using an existing app to connect over BLE to a camera which allows for photo transfer. For some reason though early on in iOS 18, it seems the bluetooth advertising name was corrupted. As a result, the camera no longer connects to the app. I've checked on another phone that the camera connects. I was wondering how to go about clearing the bluetooth cache or maybe specifically the BLE cache. The existing app developer is non responsive and I'm assuming the issue will never be fixed. I was planning on clearing the cache within my own personal unreleased app. Just wondering if there's any cache clearing API.

Additional certificate problem of Apple Pay E-Commerce
Dear Apple team and developers, We integrated Apple Pay E-Commerce on our system and made successful transaction at January using following certificates. Merchant Identity Certificate (generated from our Apple developer account) Payment Processing Certificate (generated from our Apple developer account) Payment Session Server Certificate (used following command and generated from apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com:443 test URL) Command: openssl s_client -connect apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com:443 -key MIC_priv.key -cert MIC_merchant_id.pem -showcerts | openssl x509 -outform DER &gt; apay_ident_trusted_cert_test.der Root CA G3 (Downloaded “Apple Root CA – G3 Root” from https://www.apple.com/certificateauthority/ ) But at this month, we got new certificate problem (please check following) when we try to execute Apple Pay E-Commerce transaction. Certificate 'C=US,O=Apple Inc.,OU=Apple Certification Authority,CN=Apple Application Integration CA - G3' is not valid Certificate. What is this certificate? And Where can I download or generate this certificate from? Could you please advise/give us good information for this certificate problem? Best Regards, Bilguun Enkhbaatar

App Groups in Provisioning Profile
I'll preface by saying I am new to MacOS development. I've struggled with this issue for several days and have nowhere else to go for help. My MacOS app is an Electron build. It needs application-groups entitlement for IPC. But the developer portal, when generating the provisioning profile, always appends "groups." to the start and I am unable to remove it. This renders my provisioning profile invalid and causes my app to be rejected by Transporter because it is not supposed to start with "groups", but with my team identified for MacOS. Maybe I can still use the provisioning profile as is, but I've not found any way to do that. So I'm stuck unable to deliver. Any help with this is appreciated.

After the device wake ups, NEFilterDataProvider causes internet access issue intermittently
We have a NEFilterDataProvider extension that intercepts all TCP and UDP IPv4/6 traffic. At times just after wakeup from sleep, it causes internet access issues, such as showing "This site can't be reached" when opening websites. The traffic is not being dropped by the extension. According to the logs, the connection is being closed after approximately 4 minutes. During the issue, the flow logs are as follows: Flow 515129771 is connecting New flow: NEFlow type = stream, app = com.google.Chrome.helper... Detaching, ref count = 2 (logged after ~4 minutes) Sending close, how = 2 Removing from group 2, ref count = 2 Destroying, app tx 0, tunnel tx 0, tunnel rx 0 Closing reads, not closed by plugin Closing writes, not sending close Any suggestions on the possible cause and how to further debug it?

I sent Proposal for Apple Silicon.app
Today, I submitted the following proposal to Apple through the Feedback Assistant app. I'm not confident in how I phrased it—I'd appreciate any thoughts or feedback from fellow developers. Proposal: "Apple Silicon.app" for macOS with Apple Silicon – Enhancing Performance and Swap Memory Control This suggestion has been machine translated into English, so there may be some discrepancies. If you need the actual text, please feel free to reply to this or ask at the email address below. <mail address> If the author of this proposal is to be credited, I would appreciate being listed under the nickname “DiamondGotCat,” where possible. Summary: - Currently, Apple Silicon-equipped Macs have many system-level features locked down or restricted. - This proposal suggests a new application that enables certain advanced controls for power users. - Tentatively named "Apple Silicon.app", the name may be subject to change if a more suitable alternative arises. - I propose this application be added as a pre-installed utility on compatible systems: macOS (M-series), iPadOS (A-series and M-series), and iOS (iPhones with Apple-designed A5 and newer chips, provided the latest OS is available for them). Overview: This proposal introduces "Apple Silicon.app", a new system-level utility designed to offer power users greater flexibility and control over Apple Silicon behavior, as part of a broader feature update for Apple devices. I propose that Apple Silicon.app be automatically installed as a pre-installed application on Apple Silicon devices (Mac, iPad, iPhone, and select Vision devices) that support upcoming major system updates. Suggested Features of Apple Silicon.app: 1. Performance Core Control To describe this functionality, the following terminology will be used: - P-cores: Performance cores - E-cores: Efficiency cores I understand that Apple Silicon emphasizes energy efficiency, but I believe there are users—myself included—who prioritize maximum performance regardless of power usage. Therefore, I propose that the app offer a drop-down menu with the following six modes for performance core usage: A. Automatic (Recommended) – Default macOS behavior; automatically switches between P/E cores based on workload. B. Performance Priority – Prioritizes P-cores for high-demand tasks, restricts E-cores. Ideal for developers, video editors. C. Power Saving – Uses E-cores only whenever possible; limits P-core usage. Great for battery saving. D. P-Core Exclusive Mode – User-defined processes always run on P-cores. Suitable for benchmarks or low-latency tasks. E. E-Core Exclusive Mode – Prioritizes background tasks and thermal efficiency. F. Manual Assignment (Advanced) – Users can manually assign P/E cores per application in a dedicated settings screen. Additionally, I propose the following optional checkbox settings: - Thermal Safety Mode: Automatically switches from P- to E-cores when system heat exceeds a threshold. - Restore Core Settings on Wake: Remembers P/E settings after sleep/wake. - Power Source Adaptive Mode: Switches to power-saving on battery, and performance mode when plugged in. 2. Swap Memory Configuration The app should also enable user-level control over swap memory (i.e., using part of the SSD as virtual memory). Currently, macOS manages swap space automatically with no user customization available. I propose the ability to manually configure the swap system with the following options: - Enable Manual Configuration: Checkbox to switch from automatic to manual control. - Swap Size: Adjustable in GB units, allowing users to allocate desired swap capacity. 3. Other Settings At this point, these are the core features I propose. If additional useful features exist that align with this concept, I welcome further suggestions or expansion. As users—at least speaking for myself—we look forward to such customization options becoming available.

Data Transfer or Upload to Cloudkit in Published Mode
So i created an App and for some time it was working fine. The app has features to show pdf to users without logging in. I needed to upload all data to cloudkit on public database. I was not having knowledge that there are 2 mode being a noob in coding so after i saved all records in development mode in cloudkit when i published my app, i was not able to see them (Reason because live mode works in Production mode). So i need help now to transfer data from development mode to production mode or any app or code that can help me upload all data in production mode.

Fixed Private Wi-Fi Address Changes after Update
I had noticed that my slaac address changed between one beta and the other, but wasn't sure. Now with the RC 15.4 RC (24E247) I made point of preserving the info before updating from the previous beta. What I noticed is that not only the slaac address changes, but also the my ether address, even though I have it on Fixed in the settings. Is it expected that the ether, and the slaac, not be rotated after a OS update?

Device Activity Report Not showing any information
All After about 20 hours straight of working on this and having scrapped it twice I am realizing I should have asked everyone here for help. I am just trying to get device activity report extension to work inside an existing app. I have been heavily using family controls, managedsettings and deviceactivity and decided it would be nice to output some of the app usage so the User (parent) can see their children's app usage. I installed the target via xcode, confirmed group names match, and think I have it embedded correctly but when I run the app and call the view within the extension to show minutes used by any apps it just shows no time has been used. In addition, when I put print statements into the extension they do not show up in console. I have confirmed the main app target-&gt;Build phases-&gt;Link binary with Libraries has: ManagedSettings.framework FamilyControls.Framework DeviceActivity.framework I have confirmed in xcode that the main app target-&gt;Build phases -&gt; Embed Foundation Extensions has: ShieldConfiguration.appex ShieldActionExtension.appex DeviceActivityMonitor.appex I have confirmed in xcode that the main app target-&gt;Build phases-&gt; Embed ExtensionKit Extensions has: UsageReportExtension.appex I have used the apps I am trying to show data for extensively in the last 36 hours. Here is my UsageReportExtension info.plist EXAppExtensionAttributes EXExtensionPointIdentifier com.apple.deviceactivityui.report-extension .entitlement com.apple.developer.family-controls com.apple.security.application-groups group.com.jrp.EarnYourTurnMVP2.data Here is the file in the app (timebankview.swift) calling the extension/showing the extension view(AppUsageReportView.swift) import DeviceActivity import ManagedSettings struct TimeBankView: View { @EnvironmentObject private var appState: AppState @State private var reportInterval: DateInterval = { let calendar = Calendar.current let now = Date() let yesterdayDate = calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: -1, to: now) ?? now return DateInterval(start: yesterdayDate, end: now) }() private var reportFilter: DeviceActivityFilter { let selection = appState.screenTimeController.currentSelection return DeviceActivityFilter( segment: .daily(during: reportInterval), users: .children, devices: .all, applications: selection.applicationTokens, categories: selection.categoryTokens // webDomains: selection.webDomains // Add if needed ) } var body: some View { ZStack { Color.appTheme.background(for: appState.isParentMode) .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) ScrollView { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text("Time Bank") DeviceActivityReport(.childUsageSummary, filter: reportFilter) Here is AppUsageReportView.swift import SwiftUI struct AppUsageReportView: View { let config: DetailedAppUsageConfiguration // Use the detailed config var body: some View { VStack { Text("App Usage Details") Text("Total Screen Time: \(config.totalDurationFormatted)") if config.applicationsUsed.isEmpty { Text("No specific app usage data available for the selected period/filter.") } else { Text("Apps Used:") List { ForEach(config.applicationsUsed) { appInfo in HStack { Image(systemName: "app.dashed") Text(appInfo.appName) .lineLimit(1) Text(appInfo.durationFormatted) Here is AppUsageReportScene.swift: import SwiftUI import ManagedSettings struct AppInfo: Identifiable, Hashable { let id = UUID() let appName: String let durationFormatted: String } struct DetailedAppUsageConfiguration { var totalDurationFormatted: String = "Calculating..." var applicationsUsed: [AppInfo] = [] } struct AppUsageReportScene: DeviceActivityReportScene { let context: DeviceActivityReport.Context = .childUsageSummary let content: (DetailedAppUsageConfiguration) -&gt; AppUsageReportView func makeConfiguration(representing data: DeviceActivityResults&lt;DeviceActivityData&gt;) async -&gt; DetailedAppUsageConfiguration { var config = DetailedAppUsageConfiguration() var appDurations: [String: TimeInterval] = [:] var totalAggregatedDuration: TimeInterval = 0 let formatter = DateComponentsFormatter() formatter.allowedUnits = [.hour, .minute, .second] formatter.unitsStyle = .abbreviated formatter.zeroFormattingBehavior = .pad var segmentCount = 0 var categoryCount = 0 var appCount = 0 for await activityData in data { // Check segments var tempSegmentCount = 0 for await segment in activityData.activitySegments { segmentCount += 1 tempSegmentCount += 1 totalAggregatedDuration += segment.totalActivityDuration var tempCategoryCount = 0 for await categoryActivity in segment.categories { categoryCount += 1 tempCategoryCount += 1 var tempAppCount = 0 for await appActivity in categoryActivity.applications { appCount += 1 tempAppCount += 1 let appName = appActivity.application.localizedDisplayName ??

Dev Defined IAP Transaction Metadata
I have an app that works by being able to map IAP transactions to a predefined user ID. This means when I consume events from Apple's App Store Server Notifications endpoints I have to do a reverse lookup in order to assign permissions within my app. Workflow: User purchases subscription within the app via IAP. The app persists the subscriptionID from the Apple IAP library in my cloud database (Firestore). Cloud function receives the event from App Store Server Notifications endpoint and looks up the user ID containing the persisted transactionID (with retries to avoid race condition). Question: This workflow works but it seems an improvement would be to allow dev's to append metadata, like the user ID, to the transaction submitted to IAP that we can access within the signedTransactionInfo of the event from the App Store Server Notifications endpoint in order to facilitate a direct lookup of the user document needing it's permissions updated. This would greatly simplify workflows that use non-Apple systems as a source of truth for app permissions. Does this actually exist already? If not, is there a feature request platform?
