Hi everyone, I’m developing an app called FindMyNet that allows users to find the best internet provider based on their postal code (CAP). The app is built with Xcode and the macOS simulator. I’ve set up a FastAPI backend that communicates with an Excel database containing internet provider data for each postal code. Unfortunately, when I try to run the app, I encounter an error that prevents me from retrieving data from the database and displaying the correct provider. Task <6B5C86B6-181A-4235-AE68-23AAF6645683>.<1> finished with error [1] Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted" UserInfo={_NSURLErrorFailingURLSessionTaskErrorKey=LocalDataTask <6B5C86B6-181A-4235-AE68-23AAF6645683>.<1>, _kCFStreamErrorDomainKey=1, _kCFStreamErrorCodeKey=1, _NSURLErrorRelatedURLSessionTaskErrorKey=( "LocalDataTask <6B5C86B6-181A-4235-AE68-23AAF6645683>.<1>" ), _NSURLErrorNWPathKey=satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, dns, uses wifi} Problem description: • The FastAPI backend is running on a Raspberry Pi and communicates with the app via an HTTP request. • When I enter a postal code, the app should return the best provider for that region, but I only get a 500 error. • I’ve verified that the FastAPI server is running, but it seems there’s an issue with communication between the app and the server. Steps taken so far: • I’ve checked the logs on the FastAPI server, but there are no obvious errors. • I’ve manually tested the API using Postman, and it works fine, so the issue seems to be app-side. Support request: I’d like to understand better what could be causing this error and if anyone has had similar experiences. Any advice on diagnosing the problem or solutions for resolving it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Records or Fields are Missing or Corrupt in Users Private CloudKit Databases (Recent Changes to CloudKit?)
Hi all, I've contacted Apple about this privately but I wanted to post this publicly too just to see if anyone else is experiencing the same issue. We use CloudKit to store "documents" (we'll call them) for our users. We use it directly, not via CoreData etc but through the lower level APIs. This has been working great for the last 9 months or so. Since a few days ago we've started receiving reports from users that their data has disappeared without a trace from their app. Obviously this is very serious and severe for us. We keep a local copy of the users data but if CloudKit tells us this data has been deleted we remove that local copy to keep in sync. Nothing has changed client side in terms of our code, and the only way we can see that could cause this, is a fetch that we perform asking for a list of the users "documents" is returning no rows/results, or possibly returning rows with invalid or missing fields. We have about 30,000 active users per day (1.5m requests/day) using CloudKit and we have only a handful of reports of this. Again this only started happening this week after 9 months of good service. Has anyone else noticed anything "strange" lately, fetches returning empty? fields missing? Is anyone at Apple aware of any recent changes to CloudKit? or outages? We're really unsure how or who should handle this and who we can escalate to? Any help appreciated. We have a workaround/mitigation on the way through review at the moment but this is a really big problem for us if we can't rely on CloudKit to remember users data reliably.

Unblocking Apps After a Scheduled Duration in FamilyControl
I am able to block apps using FamilyControl and Shield. Unblocking is also simple—just assign nil to store.shield.applications. However, I want to unblock them even when the app is not open. Use case: Let's say the app allows users to create a session where a particular app is blocked for a specific duration. Once the session starts, the app should remain blocked, and as soon as the session time ends, it should automatically be unblocked. Please help me with this. Thank you!

[networkextesion] dnsproxy
hello I am testing the use of network extension. When we use dnsproxy to proxy DNS requests, we will send you a message that the udp pcbcount of your system continues to increase. For example for ((i=1; i<=99999; i++));do echo "Attempt $i:" dig google.com done when the dig command is used continuously, the dig command will show the following errors when pcbcount reaches a certain number. isc_socket_bind: address not available Can you help us determine what the problem might be? thank you

CarKeyRemoteControlSession always returning empty
We are developing an iOS app to connect to vehicles and trigger predefined vehicle controls (door lock/unlock) via the Digital Key framework. We are currently blocked on several aspects and would appreciate your expertise to clarify the following queries. How can we list down connected vehicle information? What is the method to retrieve connection status? How can we perform vehicle control actions (e.g., door lock/unlock)? STEPS TO REPRODUCE Starting the CarKeyRemoteControlSession to Fetch Vehicle Reports Currently, we are using the following API to start a CarKeyRemoteControlSession: open class func start( delegate: any CarKeyRemoteControlSessionDelegate, subscriptionRange subscriptionFunctionIDRange: ClosedRange? = nil, with delegateCallbackQueue: DispatchQueue? = nil ) async throws -> CarKeyRemoteControlSession After successfully creating the session, we check for vehicle reports using the vehicleReports property of CarKeyRemoteControlSession: public var vehicleReports: [VehicleReport] { get throws }

ScreenCaptureKit crashes on Mac Catalyst apps
I'm trying to use ScreenCaptureKit on a Mac Catalyst app, on macOS 12.5.1. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but it crashes as soon as I try to request SCShareableContent. It crashes on internal code, calling a method it can't find, which makes me think this is a bug in the framework rather than incorrect configuration. Any hints on how to work around this problem? The crash is: ** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[RPDaemonProxy fetchShareableContentWithOption:windowID:withCompletionHandler:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6000037d5dc0' terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException ScreenCaptureKit-Crash.txt

Would also appreciate if you have another way to turn off shortcuts notifications permanently since when I turn it off via screen time it keeps turning itself ON every couple of days.

Operation of Server Notifications V2 when Apple account is withdrawal
Please allow me to confirm the Server Notifications V2 specification. I am aware that if withdrawal an Apple account that has a subscription, the subscription will eventually be cancelled. Regarding Server Notifications V2 notifications with a notificationType of EXPIRED, am I correct in thinking that they will be sent when the subscription expires even if the Apple account is withdrawal?

How can I stop CPNavigationSession properly on CarPlay disconnect
Hi there, I'm facing an issue when disconnecting CarPlay that the navigation session seems to be in some weird state where it is not properly finished. So when I reconnect CarPlay the "Metadata in instrument cluster or HUD" does not update anymore until I start another navigation session and stop that one. You can see that the instruction to the left on this screen recording is not updating anymore after a reconnect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sncxyJULjQk I have a modified the CostalRoad sample app to add support for the HUD cluster and to auto start a navigation simulation when CarPlay connects. https://github.com/g4rb4g3/CoastalRoads Can anyone tell me what I have to do when CarPlay disconnect so I can start a new navigation session on reconnect that has a working HUD cluster? Fun fact is that Apple Maps handles this quite nice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpJEIyGcwdo), it somehow manages to finish the navigation session and brings up the HUD cluster just fine on reconnect. I wonder how I can achieve the same, anyone having an idea on that?

Universal link not working
I’m seeking guidance on an issue with my iOS app’s universal link for email verification. The link successfully opens my app, but the verification logic never runs. Here is my setup and the problem details: Associated Domains & AASA I have Associated Domains set to applinks:talkio.me in Xcode. The AASA file is located at https://talkio.me/.well-known/apple-app-site-association with the following contents: { "applinks": { "apps": [], "details": [ { "appID": "VMCWZ2A2KQ.com.elbaba.Flake2", "paths": [ "/verify*" ] } ] } } The direct link we send in the email looks like: https://talkio.me/verify?mode=verifyEmail&oobCode=XYZ&apiKey=ABC When tapped, the app launches, but the universal link handler code below never logs the URL nor triggers the verifyEmailUsing logic. SceneDelegate Logic In my SceneDelegate.swift, I handle universal links in both scene(:willConnectTo:options:) and scene(:continue:userActivity:restorationHandler:): func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) { // ... if let urlContext = connectionOptions.urlContexts.first { let url = urlContext.url print("SceneDelegate: App launched with URL: (url.absoluteString)") handleUniversalLink(url: url) } } func scene(_ scene: UIScene, continue userActivity: NSUserActivity, restorationHandler: @escaping ([UIUserActivityRestoring]?) -> Void) -> Bool { print("⚠️ scene(_:continue:) got called!") guard let url = userActivity.webpageURL else { print("No webpageURL in userActivity.") return false } print("SceneDelegate: Universal Link => (url.absoluteString)") handleUniversalLink(url: url) return true } private func handleUniversalLink(url: URL) { let urlString = url.absoluteString if let oobCode = getQueryParam(urlString, named: "oobCode") { verifyEmailUsing(oobCode) } else { print("No oobCode found => not a verify link.") } } // ... Expected Log: SceneDelegate: App launched with URL: https://talkio.me/verify?mode=verifyEmail&oobCode=XYZ&apiKey=ABC However, I only see: SceneDelegate: sceneDidBecomeActive called No mention of the universal link is printed. Result: The app opens on tapping the link but does not call handleUniversalLink(...). Consequently, Auth.auth().checkActionCode(oobCode) and Auth.auth().applyActionCode(oobCode) are never triggered. What I Tried: Verified the AASA file is served over HTTPS, with content type application/json. Reinstalled the app to refresh iOS’s associated domain cache. Confirmed my Team ID (VMCWZ2A2KQ) and Bundle ID (com.elbaba.Flake2) match in the app’s entitlements. Confirmed the link path "/verify*" matches the link structure in emails. Despite these checks, the universal link logic is not invoked. Could you help me identify why the link is not recognized as a universal link and how to ensure iOS calls my SceneDelegate methods with the correct URL? Any guidance on diagnosing or resolving this universal link issue would be greatly appreciated.

Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs)
I got a notification that the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. Does this affect the push service for Apple Wallet passes or just for apps? I have a push service for Apple Wallet passes but no service for apps. I don't use push notification service for anything other than for Apple Wallet Pass push notifications, not at all for apps. Is there anything I need to do or is this not relevant to my situation? If it does, what do I need to change in order to make sure my service still works? Do I just replace the certificate? Is there a standard path where it would live on the server? I'm sure this is a simple thing, but it's been over a decade since I wrote the push service so I'm pretty rusty.

macOS app can be excluded from the ‘Screen Time’ statistics?
I am a macOS software developer using Xcode and Objective-C. I have a wallpaper app on the App Store, and recently, a few users have asked if the app can be excluded from the ‘Screen Time’ statistics. Is there a way to allow users to choose whether or not the app should appear in the ‘Screen Time’ tracking? I have already set LSUIElement to YES in the info.plist, but the app is still being tracked in ‘Screen Time.

Bluetooth peripheral factory reset
Hi, I'm developing a bluetooth peripheral. During factory reset I generate a new IRK and drop any bond information it has. When I then try to bond again with the device iOS returns bonding failed with 0x08 (unspecified reason). I assume that iOS somehow still thinks my reset device is the same as the device it has already bonded with. What information about the device is it using to draw this conclusion? Bonding works if I remove the "pre-reset" peripheral from the iOS list of bluetooth devices. Regards
