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.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get-v2-history-_transactionid I would like to inquire about the detailed triggers for updating receipts in this API specification. Recently, I was using this API with sort=DESCENDING&revoked=false to retrieve the expiration date of the most recent receipt and determine the subscription status. However, for some reason, an old receipt with an earlier expiration date appeared as the first receipt, and I would like to know the reason for this. Can you provide information on what specific events or actions trigger the updating of receipts in this API? Also, regarding https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/status, will statuses 3 and 4 not be returned in the response unless the billing grace period is enabled in the App Store? -- Japanese こちらのAPI仕様ですが、どのようなトリガーでレシートが更新されるのか詳細に伺いたいです。 先日このAPIを使用してsort=DESCENDING&revoked=falseで一番最初のレシートの有効期限を取得して課金状態か判断していたのですが、どういったわけか一番最初のレシートに古い有効期限のレシートが入ってきたので理由を知りたいです。 また、https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/status のステータスはAppleStoreで請求猶予期間を有効化しないと3,4はレスポンスされませんか？

If I change MKMapView's .preferredConfiguration property from .realistic to .flat, or .mapType from .hybridFlyover to .hybrid, subsequent scrolling causes a crash: -[MTLDebugRenderCommandEncoder validateDrawIndexedPrimitives:indexCount:indexType:indexBuffer:indexBufferOffset:instanceCount:function:]:6179: failed assertion `Draw Indexed Primitives Validation indexBufferOffset(0) + (indexCount(864) * 2) must be <= [indexBuffer length] (12). For example, changing: mapView.preferredConfiguration = MKHybridMapConfiguration(elevationStyle: .realistic) to: mapView.preferredConfiguration = MKHybridMapConfiguration(elevationStyle: .flat) Then, scroll the map view, and it will crash. It is OK the other way around. Or change: self.mapView.mapType = .hybridFlyover to: self.mapView.mapType = .hybrid I've tried everything I can think of, including calling functions like these after the change: mapView.setNeedsDisplay() mapView.setRegion(self.mapView.region, animated: false) .mapType and .preferredConfiguration are settable properties, so they should be possible to change. I could create a new MKMapview, but I'd have to perfectly recreate the state which is not trivial and far from ideal. I'm just trying to work around the issue FB14553276 so my map tiles don't show tiling seems in 2D which is a new issue introduced with iOS 18. This potential workaround still shows the seems in 3D, but is better than always showing seems. Seems like whatever I do, I just can't defeat MapKit bugs and puts me in an impossible situation. :( I've submitted Feedback this issue: FB16153802 It seems like others are experiencing the issue: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/730780

I am the Lead iOS Developer for The Incc, an upcoming social networking application. The platform offers subscriptions that grant users access to premium content, primarily digital magazines showcasing diverse cultures, alongside standard social media features and additional unique functionalities. I am exploring two specific use cases for our subscription model. Promo Codes with Split Payments: We plan to collaborate with the our influencers (referred to as Mover Shakers) by providing them with promo codes for users to purchase subscriptions. For such purchases, we aim to implement a revenue split model, allocating 10% to the influencer and the remainder to us after Apple’s fees. Gifting Subscriptions: We also wish to enable users to gift subscriptions to others within the app. I understand that the Apple Subscription Service does not natively support these features. What other options do we have to achieve this that are also not against the Apple's guidelines.

Hello, I am encountering an issue with user-generated files stored in the Documents directory on an iPhone 11 running iOS 18.2. The problem occurs as follows: 1.The app generates and saves files in the Documents directory using FileManager. 2.These files are successfully saved and remain accessible while the app is running. 3.After restarting the app, the files appear to have been deleted from the Documents directory. I have confirmed that: 1.The files are being saved to the correct location (Documents directory) and can be accessed during the current app session and from iExplorer. 2.The app is not explicitly deleting these files during shutdown or restart. 3.This behavior is consistent across multiple app restarts.

I have been struggling to test the IAP response but it is returning empty. I am now in the very beginning of one app, and I don't want to submit the contacts and banking and tax stuff that early. are these necessary for even testing IAP results locally? I think it does not make sense if I have to.

Hi, In an auto-renewable subscription scenario, I receive a transaction from Product.Purchase and then send the transaction ID (e.g., 500000000738201) to my API server. After receiving the response, I called transaction.finish(). The account has purchased the subscription before and expired. So it's re-subscribe. And then, I received a RESUBSCRIBE notification from Apple’s server to my API server. I noticed a discrepancy where the transaction ID in the notification is decreased by one (e.g., 500000000738200 instead of 500000000738201). I’m wondering why this discrepancy occurs and how it happens. Best regards, RoyHuang

Hi, I'm attempting to use StoreKit 2 and SwiftUI to add a tip jar to my iOS app. I've successfully added consumable IAPs for each of my tip sizes, and used ProductView to show these on my tip jar screen. However, I am at a loss on how to do the following things: How and when do I finish the consumable IAP transaction? I see the finish() function in the documentation, but I am not sure how I can call it given that ProductView is handling the purchase for me (I have no access to a Transaction object). How can I track the amount of consumable IAPs the user has purchased across all their devices? I want to show the user the amount of money they have tipped in total. I have added SKIncludeConsumableInAppPurchaseHistory to my Info.plist and set it to YES as suggested here: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/687199 This is my first time using StoreKit 2 (until now, I was using StoreKit 1), so I would really appreciate any advice and guidance you can provide. Thanks!

I've got a few questions about device check, and would be grateful if anybody knows the answers: why is DC not reset when the device transfers between users? The canonical example of why an app might use DC is if it offers a promotion and to stop user's from getting that promotion multiple times. However, using the same example scenario yes you've stopped the first user from getting multiple promotions but then if that device is transferred to another user you've stopped them from getting any promotions at all? how can you test things when the bits can't be reset? If once you've set the bits on a device then you can no longer ever use that device again to test the apps behavior in the situation when the bits are unset. does the app have complete freedom to set the timestamp to whatever it wants? For example, could the app set a bit with a timestamp of epoch? if the bits are shared between all apps from the same developer, then supposing that developer have more apps in the App Store then there are bits? If they have 5 apps offering a promotion and a device has previously had 4 apps installed, then the user wants to install a 5th app, but with all 4 bits now then the user will be able to abuse the promotion on the 5th app because the app has no way of recording if the promo has been used or not as the collective bits have been used up?

You are probably aware of the upcoming root certificate change for any servers you might have that you use to send push notifications by connection to APNs. If you are not, here is the announcement. We have been getting some questions about this, and understand not everyone is familiar with their server setup. First, we would like to clarify that this is only a change to your server's certificate trust store. You do not need to update anything else, like your APNs push certificates, the build certificates and provisioning profiles for your team/app, and so on. All you need to do is to install the mentioned new root certificate to your push server's trust store. If you are using a 3rd party push provider, it is them who will need to handle their servers. But you may want to double check with them nevertheless. If you are managing your own push servers that connect to APNs directly, then it is your responsibility to download and install the root certificate mentioned in the above link on your server(s). Unfortunately we cannot provide specific instructions on how to install this root certificate on every kind of server out there. Each server operating system/push server software will have different ways these root certificates are installed, which is out of scope of our support abilities. If you are not sure how to do this, I would recommend you seek help for this from your server-side developers or server admins. Or, if you don't have access to such resources, you can ask the support channels for your system the question: How do I install a root certificate? We have setup a test server at 17.188.143.34:443 that you can use to try and send pushes to test whether your new root certificate is correctly installed. An alternative way to test this would be, from a terminal prompt: openssl s_client -connect 17.188.143.34:443 -servername api.sandbox.push.apple.com -verifyCAfile USERTrustRSACertificationAuthority.crt -showcerts Change the parameter to the -verifyCAfile argument to point to your trust store, and it should allow you to validate Sample return results would be: Connecting to 17.188.143.34 CONNECTED(00000003) depth=2 C=US, ST=New Jersey, L=Jersey City, O=The USERTRUST Network, CN=USERTrust RSA Certification Authority verify return:1 depth=1 CN=Apple Public Server RSA CA 11 - G1, O=Apple Inc., ST=California, C=US verify return:1 depth=0 C=US, ST=California, O=Apple Inc., CN=api.sandbox.push.apple.com verify return:1 Argun Tekant /  DTS Engineer / Core Technologies

We’ve set up an advanced App Clip experience that successfully launches when a user scans our QR code. However, the same App Clip invocation URL does not launch when tapping the associated Action Link on our Apple Place Card in Apple Maps. Instead of opening the App Clip, the link falls back to the website. What We Have Done So Far: App Clip Launched in App Store Connect: Our App Clip is approved and live on the App Store. Here is the invocation URL: https://appclip.parkzenapp.com/park?q=oJrbSIgx Below is the QR code for our Advanced App Clip experience we are attempting to open in our Apple Maps Place card When scanning the QR code that uses the same App Clip invocation URL, the App Clip reliably launches as expected. Here is our apple-app-site-association file, thats correctly served from the associated domain: https://appclip.parkzenapp.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association Add here is a screenshot showing how the appclip.parkzenapp.com domain is correctly validated. Advanced App Clip Experience: We created and submitted an advanced App Clip Experience specifically tied to our location on Apple Maps. This App Clip Experience is approved and live. Below is an image of our set up of this Advanced App Clip Experience Business Connect: We've created the Apple Maps Location in business connect and added the advanced App Clip experience invocation URL as an Action Link in the place card. See screenshot below. Apple Maps Place: https://maps.apple.com/place?auid=906421750045811407 Despite meeting these conditions, when a user taps the Action Link (the "Reserve" button in the Apple Maps Place Card), the fallback website opens rather than the App Clip. Question: What additional step or configuration might we be missing to ensure the Action Link on our Apple Maps place card triggers the App Clip instead of the website? Thank you

I’m trying to run a Shortcut from my iPhone’s Action button and immediately dictate input by voice, without tapping or switching modes. Currently, it always defaults to a text field. Voice dictation works seamlessly if I trigger the shortcut via a voice command, but not when I use the Action button. Is there a way, API, or future plan from Apple to allow voice dictation after the Action button triggers a Shortcut? Any guidance or ideas would be really helpful!

I'm working on my first subscription for an app I've built, and can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong with this one whether it's something in Xcode or App Store Connect. Any idea where to start? Somethings to check. TIA.

I'm currently working on an AppIntent in my app to import Apple Pay transactions via Transaction triggers in Shortcuts. While I can access the transaction name with the following code: @Parameter(title: "Transaction") var transaction: String I'm not sure how to retrieve the full details of the transaction, including: Card or Pass Merchant Amount Name At the moment, transaction only provides the name as a string, but I need access to the complete transaction data. I know that by selecting specific fields like Amount, Merchant, etc., I can retrieve each piece of data individually, but it would be much easier and more user-friendly to simply retrieve the entire transaction object at once. Has anyone successfully retrieved all details of an Apple Pay transaction in this context, and if so, could you share how to do so?

Am showing daily screen-time of a user in my app in Device Activity Report Extension. The only way to get that is to sum up all the activityDuration of apps/categories/domains. But it differs a lot from phone's settings screen-time, why? I have debugged in details and counted manually the time spent on each app and it turned out that the calculation is appearing correctly in my app but Phone settings showing quite less time on top (Day).

In the documentation for a Message Filter Extension it states: If you have servers that can help your app extension determine how to handle a message, you must add the Associated Domains capability to your Xcode project and specify those domains. (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sms_and_call_reporting/sms_and_mms_message_filtering/creating_a_message_filter_app_extension) The words servers and domains are in the plural. If it's possible to specify multiple servers/domains for a Message Filter Extension then how is that done? There's no documentation nor reference for that. If multiple domains can be added to the info.plist then what is the iOS behavior in that case? Can the extension supply/change which domain is used at run time?

I am writing a SwiftData/SwiftUI app in which the user saves simple records, tagged with their current location. Core Location can take up to 10 seconds to retrieve the current location from its requestLocation() call. I the main app I have wrapped the CLLocationManager calls with async implementations. I kick off a Task when a new record is created, and write the location to my @Model on the main thread when it completes. A realistic use of the share extension doesn't give the task enough time to complete. I can use performExpiringActivity to complete background processing after the share extension closes but this needs to be a synchronous block. Is there some way of using performExpiringActivity when relying on a delegate callback from something like Core Location?

No matter what I do whether I delete the app or reset my phone it still prompts me to log in to the previous sandbox test account. I'm not even signed into that account on my phone or in the App Store.
