In my app, I am using geofencing to perform an action when the user enter or leaves a specified location. The geofencing (CLMonitor) is active permanently, and should work across multiple app sessions or after the device is restarted. It should also work after the app was minimized or terminated. This worked perfectly with iOS 17 and prior, but with iOS 18, things changed. As soon as iOS 18 dropped, users were informing me that the app does no longer perform the entry/exit action reliably (without me making any changes to the app). Most of the times, events are missed entirely. Sometimes, after the user opens or resumes the app, duplicate events are delivered and/or events with the current time instead of the correct time of entry/exit. I am making sure that the app has the "Always" location permission before geofencing is enabled The gefocence radius is between 20 and 500m, but even with the max. radius specified, the geofencing is unreliable For the same user and geofence, the entry/exit event is delivered occasionally, but not always I am currently not using CLLocationManager.allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates (even though it's documented as "Apps that receive location updates when running in the background must include the UIBackgroundModes key (with the location value) in their app’s Info.plist file") because it wasn't necessary on iOS 17 and in my tests, using it didn't yield any improvements In my search for what could have caused this change, I found this WWDC video about location authorization: . It appears that with iOS 18, it is now required to have an active CLServiceSession to ensure that location updates are delivered to my app. Even though the video is long (and I've watched it multiple times), some things are still unclear. For example, the docs state: If your app actively receives and processes location updates and terminates, it should restart those APIs upon launch in order to continue receiving updates. Also, in the video it is stated that: ... So your job, ..., is to make sure that your process launch logic knows what features it has been tasked with pursuing, and re-takes session objects... But on the other hand it's also said that: you can only start holding one (a CLServiceSession) when your app is in the foreground and also ... CLMonitor.events won’t yield results when it is not in use, unless a session which was started in the foreground, .... To summarize my questions, for the geofencing to work as described above: when exactly do I need to create a CLServiceSession if the app is launched into the backgorund? Immediately in the applicationDidFinishLaunching method, even though the app is still in the background (applicationState is background)? Or later on, when the app is opened again by the user, e.g. in applicationDidBecomeActive (and applicationState is active)? do I need to specify the background mode capability as noted in the Handling location updates in the background article? do I need to create a CLBackgroundActivitySession as noted in the Handling location updates in the background article? does it matter, which of the four initializer methods I am using to create the CLServiceSession (with CLServiceSessionAuthorizationRequirementAlways)? does it matter if I specify NSLocationRequireExplicitServiceSession in the Info.plist or not when I already do ensure that the app has the "Always" location permission when the feature is being enabled Does a CLServiceSession last indefinitely and should it only be invalidated once the user disables the feature?

Since WatchOS 8.0.1 CoreBluetooth drops an active connection if the App goes to background (or back to foreground). This can be reproduced easily with this sample code: Interacting with Bluetooth Peripherals During Background App Refresh If you run the app on the Apple Watch and turn your wrist, an active connection is terminated. In the output window you can read: 2021-10-20 20:22:41.210839+0200 BARBluetooth WatchKit Extension[382:94603] [BluetoothReceiver] disconnected from Sender. The same is the case with my other Watch Apps, that are connecting to BLE devices. As far as I remember, with WatchOS 8.0 everything was fine. Since this occurs even on WWDC21 sample code this must be a bug. Is there a way to fix it for myself, or do I have to wait until it gets fixed by Apple?

Hello, I want to echo the DeviceActivityReport "concurrency" problems flagged in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/720549, and ask a related question. (Thanks to Kmart and other Apple dev support folks who have been monitoring these forums and responding diligently.) I would like to display daily and weekly stats in the same view, broken down by specific apps (as in the native Screen Time). However, instantiating multiple DeviceActivityReport objects with different filters and/or different contexts leads to confusion, where the two views will incorrectly and intermittently swap data or duplicate data where it shouldn't (seemingly upon some interval when the extension provides fresh data). There isn't documentation on how to display multiple reports at once. Is the idea that logic for multiple reports should be embedded within the extension itself in the makeConfiguration() function and there should only be a single DeviceActivityReport in the main App, or is this a bug? Even with a single DeviceActivityReport, I run into inconsistencies where the View provided by the extension takes multiple seconds to load or fails to load altogether. The behavior seems random...I will build the application with the same code multiple times and see different behavior each time. Finally, a plug for better support in the Simulator for the entire set of Screen Time APIs. Thanks!

The NSPersistentCloudKitContainer synchronization between core data and iCloud was working fine with phone 15.1.

I'm trying to handle the serverRecordChanged return code you get in CKError when you have a conflict and your using the savePolicy of ifServerRecordUnchanged. According to the CKError.Code.serverRecordChanged documentation, I should be receiving all three records that I need to do a 3-way merge. The problem is that the ancestorRecord (CKRecordChangedErrorAncestorRecordKey can also be used to look it up in the userInfo) doesn't actually contain a record. It only contains the record metadata. Is there something I need to be doing to get the full ancestorRecord in the CKError? If not is it possible to query iCloud for the ancestorRecord? Given that iCloud has the change history (as I understand it), then it is theoretically possible. I just don't know how to do it if it is possible. Are 3-way merges even possible? The design of the serverRecordChanged looks like that is the intent, but I can't see how to do it with the data that CloudKit is providing.

How does SwiftData work with background operations? CoreData had background context that could be used to avoid UI hang for heavy operations. Is there an equivalent in SwiftData, and if so, do I have to merge changes or does it save directly to persistent store?

We tested call blocking on iOS 26 and noticed something strange: the call will not be blocked if an outgoing call was made to its number before. Nevertheless, it will be blocked if we delete the outgoing call record from the Phone.app Recents. This behavior looks like a bug and is unexpected when using our application. Was this a planned callkit change in iOS 26? Is it possible to get the correct call blocking behavior back? We set blocking rules with addBlockingEntry(withNextSequentialPhoneNumber:) and this problem is not present in iOS 18 and earlier. Thank you in advance

I've looked around quite a bit at the EventKit documentation and done all the searching I could think of, as well as examining the EKCalendar and EKEventStore types. Trying to find out how to view, modify, and create groups of reminders lists.

Hi, We are the developers of Morning Call (https://morningcall.info), and we believe we may have identified an AlarmKit / system UI bug on iPhone. We can reproduce the same behavior not only in our app, but also in Apple’s official AlarmKit sample app, which strongly suggests this is a framework or system-level issue rather than an app-specific bug. Demonstration Video of producing zombie Live Activity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZdF3oc8dVI Related Thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/812006 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/817305 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/807335 Environment iPhone with Dynamic Island Alarm created using AlarmKit Device is unlocked when the alarm begins alerting Steps to reproduce Schedule an AlarmKit alarm. Wait for the alarm to alert while the device is unlocked. The alarm appears in Dynamic Island. Instead of tapping the intended stop or dismiss button, swipe the Dynamic Island presentation away. Expected result The alarm should be fully dismissed. The Live Activity should be removed. No empty UI should remain in Dynamic Island. Actual result The assigned AppIntent runs successfully. Our app code executes as expected. AlarmKit appears to stop the alarm correctly. However, an empty “zombie” Live Activity remains in Dynamic Island indefinitely. The user cannot clear it through normal interaction. Why this is a serious user-facing issue This is not just a cosmetic issue for us. From the user’s perspective, it looks like a Live Activity is permanently stuck in Dynamic Island. More importantly: Force-quitting the app does not remove it Deleting the app does not remove it In practice, many users conclude that our app has left a broken Live Activity running forever We receive repeated user complaints saying that the Live Activity “won’t go away” Because the remaining UI appears to be system-owned, users often do not realize that the only reliable recovery is to restart the phone. Most users do not discover that workaround on their own, so they instead assume the app is severely broken. Cases where the zombie state disappears Rebooting the phone Waiting for the next AlarmKit alert, then pressing the proper stop button on that alert Additional observations Inside our LiveActivityIntent, calling AlarmManager.shared.stop(id:) reports that the alarm has already been stopped by the system. We also tried inspecting Activity<AlarmAttributes<...>>.activities and calling end(..., dismissalPolicy: .immediate), but in this state no matching activity is exposed to the app. This suggests that the alarm itself has already been stopped, but the system-owned Live Activity UI is not being cleaned up correctly after the swipe-dismiss path. Why this does not appear to be an app logic issue The intent is invoked successfully. The alarm stop path is reached. The alarm is already considered stopped by the system. The remaining UI appears to be system-owned. The stuck UI persists even after our own cleanup logic has run. The stuck UI also survives app force-quit and app deletion.

Hi! I'm trying to figure out what mechanism request stop sends to the guest to actually request a stop. It doesn't appear that Virtualization.framework implements any ACPI bits relating to power buttons, so unclear how a linux VM would detect that a request has been stopped. I don't see any documentation around what devices are implemented by Virtualization.framework either, in terms of things like realtime clock, etc. Thanks for any help!

Hello, When an iOS app runs on Vision Pro in compatible mode, is there a flag such as isiOSAppOnVision to determine the underlying OS at runtime? Just like the ProcessInfo.isiOSAppOnMac. It will be useful to optimize the app for visionOS. Already checked but not useful: #if os(xrOS) does not work in compatible mode since no code is recompiled. UIDevice.userInterfaceIdiom returns .pad instead of .reality. Thanks.

Our app uses a 24-hour DeviceActivityMonitor repeating schedule to send users notifications for every hour of screen time they spend on their phone per day. Notifications are sent from eventDidReachThreshold callbacks at 1, 2, 3, etc, hour thresholds to keep them aware of their screen time. We have recently received an influx of emails from our users that after updating to iOS 17.6.1 their DeviceActivityMonitor notifications are saying their screen time was much higher than what is shown in DeviceActivityReport and their device's Screen Time settings. These users have disabled "Share Across Devices" - but I suspect the DeviceActivityMonitor is still getting screen time from their other devices even though that setting is turned off. Has anybody else noticed this, understands what is causing this, or could recommend a fix that we can tell our users to do?

It looks like Apple has added some new API(s) to SFSpeechRecognition My app, which is currently listed on App Store does feature speech recognition. Yet, trying to use it under iOS 18.0 throws errors: -[SFSpeechRecognitionTask localSpeechRecognitionClient:speechRecordingDidFail:]_block_invoke Ignoring subsequent local speech recording error: Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1101 "(null)" What happens is that after several words are transcribed and displayed, the next sentence results in previous words disappearance. That's probably what that portion of the error text - "Ignoring subsequent local speech recording error: Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1101 "(null)" means. The problem occurs ONLY when the app is running under iOS 18.0 Even when it's compiled in Xcode 16.0 using iOS 17.5 everything works fine. Any suggestions?

Hello everyone, I have been working on a macOS app that utilizes push notifications for the past year. Up until recently, everything was functioning correctly. However, now I'm experiencing issues where push notifications are either not being delivered at all or are experiencing significant delays, sometimes up to 10 minutes. Setting the priority header to 10 hasn't made any difference. I am currently using development push notifications, but the issue persists when switching to the production environment. I'm curious if anyone else has encountered similar problems. When checking the push console, it frequently reports that the device is offline, even though it's actually online ("discarded as device was offline"). Occasionally, notifications are delivered promptly, but this is becoming increasingly infrequent. This issue has been consistently reported by our testers, particularly after they updated to macOS Sonoma. Any insights or assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I'm working on an API client for a REST service that uses a custom token-based authentiation scheme. The app hits a specificed authentication endpoint with a username and password, said endpoint returns a token that's good for X amount of time, and the app passes that token along with every subsequent request. When that token expires, we start over.Most literature out there tells me to manually set the Authorization header on my request, but official Apple documentation discourages this, as that header is meant to be 'owned' by the built-in HTTP loading system. That said, official documentation on the 'correct' way to do this is shockingly lacking, and the standard didReceiveChallenge callbacks seem better suited for non-custom Basic/Digest/etc authentication schemes. One thought I had was registering my own URLProtocol subclass to handle our custom flow. However, while I haven't had a chance to sit down and take a crack at that yet, my understanding from skimming these forums is that it's suffering from some bit-rot right now, so it 'might' (?) not be the best choice. That, and it's also not clear to me whether the rules around the Authorization header change when a custom URLProtocol is in play.So, community (paging eskimo in particular!), what's the correct way for me to go about this?

We use call directory extension in one of our applications, we notice that call id is truncated on IOS 18. Example: "Grady GmbH" instead of "GRADY ARCHIE, PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPER GMBH" We notice also if we have calls in the history then the caller id is shown correctly. Issue only on IOS 18.

We are experiencing a crash in our application that only occurs on devices running iOS beta 26. It looks like a Beta problem. The crash appears to be caused by an excessive number of open File Descriptors. We identified this after noticing a series of crashes in different parts of the code each time the app was launched. Sometimes it would crash right at the beginning, when trying to load the Firebase plist file. That’s when we noticed a log message saying “too many open files,” and upon further investigation, we found that an excessive number of File Descriptors were open in our app, right after the didFinishLaunching method of the AppDelegate. We used the native Darwin library to log information about the FDs and collected the following: func logFDs() { var rlim = rlimit() if getrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rlim) == 0 { print("FD LIMIT: soft: \(rlim.rlim_cur), hard: \(rlim.rlim_max)") } // Count open FDs before Firebase let openFDsBefore = countOpenFileDescriptors() print("Open file descriptors BEFORE Firebase.configure(): \(openFDsBefore)") } private func countOpenFileDescriptors() -> Int { var count = 0 let maxFD = getdtablesize() for fd in 0..<maxFD { if fcntl(fd, F_GETFD) != -1 { count += 1 } } return count } With this code, we obtained the following data: On a device with iOS 26 Beta 1, 2, or 3: FD LIMIT: soft: 256, hard: 9223372036854775807 Open file descriptors BEFORE Firebase.configure(): 256 On a device with iOS 18: FD LIMIT: soft: 256, hard: 9223372036854775807 Open file descriptors BEFORE Firebase.configure(): 57 In the case of the device running iOS 26 beta, the app crashes when executing Firebase.configure() because it cannot open the plist file, even though it can be found at the correct path — meaning the OS locates it. To confirm this was indeed the issue, we used the following code to close FDs before proceeding with Firebase configuration. By placing a breakpoint just before Firebase.configure() and running the following LLDB command: expr -l c -- for (int fd = 180; fd < 256; fd++) { (int)close(fd); } This released the FDs, allowing Firebase to proceed with its configuration as expected. However, the app would later crash again after hitting the soft limit of file descriptors once more. Digging deeper, we used this code to try to identify which FDs were being opened and causing the soft limit to be exceeded: func checkFDPath() { var r = rlimit() if getrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &r) == 0 { print("FD LIMIT: soft: \(r.rlim_cur), hard: \(r.rlim_max)") for fd in 0..<Int32(r.rlim_cur) { var path = [CChar](repeating: 0, count: Int(PATH_MAX)) if fcntl(fd, F_GETPATH, &path) != -1 { print(String(cString: path)) } } } } We ran this command at the very beginning of the didFinishLaunching method in the AppDelegate. On iOS 26, the log repeatedly showed Cryptexes creating a massive number of FDs, such as: /dev/null /dev/ttys000 /dev/ttys000 /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/AEE414F2-7D6F-44DF-A6D9-92EDD1D2B014/Library/Application Support/DTX_8.191.1.1003.sqlite /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/AEE414F2-7D6F-44DF-A6D9-92EDD1D2B014/Library/Caches/KSCrash/MyAppScheme/Data/ConsoleLog.txt /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/AEE414F2-7D6F-44DF-A6D9-92EDD1D2B014/Library/HTTPStorages/mybundleId/httpstorages.sqlite /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/AEE414F2-7D6F-44DF-A6D9-92EDD1D2B014/Library/HTTPStorages/mybundleId/httpstorages.sqlite-wal /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/AEE414F2-7D6F-44DF-A6D9-92EDD1D2B014/Library/HTTPStorages/mybundleId/httpstorages.sqlite-shm /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.01 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.11 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.12 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.13 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.14 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.15 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.16 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.17 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.18 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.19 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.20 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.21 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.22 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.23 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.24 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.25 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.26 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.29 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.30 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.31 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.32 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.36 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.37 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.38 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.39 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.40 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e … This repeats itself a lot of times. … /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.36 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.37 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.38 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.39 /private/preboot/Cryptexes/OS/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.dyld/dyld_shared_cache_arm64e.40

Hi everyone, We’re running into a serious issue with App Clip Experience updates not propagating to devices, and I’m hoping someone here has encountered (or solved) this before. Problem Once an App Clip Experience is created and used on devices, subsequent updates made in App Store Connect do not reflect on any devices, even after a long period of time. We’ve tried: • Updating the App Clip Experience URL (adding utm parameters, for example, utm_source and scanning via QR code) • Modifying Experience metadata/content • Waiting several days (over a week) • Testing on multiple devices (including devices that never opened the App Clip before) Despite this, the App Clip continues to show the initially created content, while App Store Connect clearly shows the updated configuration. Important Details • We currently have ~1,300 App Clip Experiences created • All App Clips use the same App Clip Bundle ID • The content behind the URLs updates correctly on the website • Only the App Clip continues to show stale / initial data • Removing and re-invoking the App Clip on devices does not consistently fix the issue At this point, manual updates via App Store Connect appear to be completely ignored once the App Clip is “established.” Questions 1. Is there a known hard cache or CDN behavior on Apple’s side that prevents App Clip Experience updates from propagating? 2. Is there any way to invalidate or refresh an existing App Clip Experience? 3. Does having a large number of App Clip Experiences (~1300) affect update behavior or caching? 4. Is the recommended approach to treat App Clip Experience as immutable and handle all updates via backend / dynamic content only? Right now it feels like: App Clip Experience is effectively a one-time snapshot and not a live-updatable configuration. Any insights, confirmations, or official guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In the latest 26.5, when creating a VM we can no longer disable SIP. We have confirmed we're using the proper admin user (anka) and its proper password (same one we log into the GUI with). It just keeps asking for the password as if it's wrong. It's critical we can disable SIP for VMs like we have been in previous versions.
