Can I Present AlarmKit's Alarm UI in Expanded Dynamic Island that I implement with SwiftUI when its fired? not System AlarmUI, but my the view that I implemented. I've implemented Dynamic Island properly, and tried various scenarios but I can't find out the way to present AlarmKit UI in Expanded Dynamic Island when it is fired. I don't know why, but, sometimes, it is presented in Expanded Dynamic Island UI which is I Implemented. But when I try lots of times, It is presented in System AlarmKit UI not my SwiftUI View. Can you please tell me how can I present my SwiftUI Expanded Dynamic Island when it is fired? Sincerely

The alarms that I am scheduling using alarmKit is not reliable at all, especially in beta 8 (Used to have this issue in previous betas, But they were inconsistent). The alarm fires anywhere after 5 mins to 45 mins from the actual scheduled time. I'll share the relevant code block here in case if it is me who is doing something wrong. This code block doesn't throw any errors and I am also able to see the scheduled alarms when I query them. The issue is with alarms not firing on the specified time let alert = AlarmPresentation.Alert( title: "Wakey Wakey!", stopButton: .init(text: "stop", textColor: .red, systemImageName: "stop.fill") ) let presentation = AlarmPresentation(alert: alert) let attributes = AlarmAttributes<CountDownAttribute>( presentation: presentation, metadata: .init(), tintColor: .orange ) let schedule = Alarm.Schedule.fixed(alarmTime) let config = AlarmManager.AlarmConfiguration( schedule: schedule, attributes: attributes ) let id = UUID() do { let alarm = try await AlarmManager.shared.schedule(id: id, configuration: config) print("Alarm set successfully for \(alarmTime) - \(alarm)") } catch { print("Failed to schedule alarm: \(error)") }

hello, I have an app with In-App purchase set up, it works fine in TestFlight on an iOS device but the download from the App Store gives me a transaction failed message. I tried to replicate in the simulator but from what I've read is that you can't do in-app purchase testing in the simulator. Perhaps I'm wrong here but I've tried multiple sandbox accounts, etc.. and still get an unusual "...password can't be reused..." error (pasted below) in the debug description. I'm curious if anyone else has dealt with this scenario and if so how did you go about researching/identifying the issue and/or resolving it. Partial error message: <SKPaymentQueue: 0x60000000e370>: Payment completed with error: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=530 "(null)" UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x600000c74750 {Error Domain=AMSErrorDomain Code=100 "Authentication Failed The authentication failed."

UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=Password reuse not available for account The account state does not support password reuse., AMSDescription=Password reuse not available for account, AMSFailureReason=The account state does not support password reuse.}"

Hello, I've been experimenting with the new NEURLFilter API and so far the results are kind of strange. SimpleURLFilter sample contains a bloom filter that seems to be built from this dataset in pir-service-example. I was able to run SimpleURLFilter sample and configure it to use PIRService from the example repo. I also observed the requests that iOS has been sending: requesting config and then sending /queries request. What I haven't seen is any .deny verdict for any URL. Even when calling NEURLFilter.verdict(for: url) directly I cannot see a .deny verdict. Is there anything wrong with the sample or is there a known issue with NEURLFilter in the current beta (beta 8) that prevents it from working?

I've added a Notification Service Extension as a target to my React Native iOS app following Apple's official documentation. After completing all the setup steps as outlined in the documentation, the notification titles remain unchanged - notifications are arriving without any modifications, suggesting the extension isn't functioning properly.Testing Details: Sending notifications via Apple Push Notification Console Tested on iPhone 16 Pro Max (physical device) Tested on iPhone 15 Pro simulator Both show the same issue - no title modifications The extension appears to not be executing at all. Has anyone encountered similar issues with Notification Service Extensions in React Native projects, or can suggest troubleshooting steps to verify the extension is properly configured and running?

Hi Anyone had luck to make EnergyKit work yet? Using Xcode 26 (latest beta), physical iPhone with the latest iOS26 beta.

We appreciate your suggestion to use the Apple Developer Forums. However, we must respectfully request further escalation of this issue beyond the forums for several critical reasons: Severity and Scope: This is not a general development discussion topic. We are facing a massive, reproducible performance issue on iOS 16 that renders devices unresponsive, requiring factory resets or DFU restores. This goes far beyond typical app bugs and points to a potential systemic issue in the OS's image handling. Insufficiency of Forum Support: While the forums are a valuable resource for community advice, they cannot provide the official, in-depth technical diagnosis from Apple engineers that this situation demands. Our users' devices are being bricked by an app update that passed App Review, and we require clarity on the root cause to prevent further damage and restore user trust. Code-Level Support Eligibility: As members of the Apple Developer Program, we believe our issue falls under the purview of Code-Level Support, as described on the Apple Developer website 9. Our problem involves "building or running software" and requires expertise in Apple's frameworks and hardware-level image rendering APIs. We request that our case be forwarded to that specialized team. To reiterate the core problem: Our update introduced 1024x1026 JPEG assets into the Asset Catalog. On iOS 16, this causes severe overheating, freezing, and device unresponsiveness. Replacing them with PNGs completely resolves the issue. This suggests a potentially serious regression in iOS 16's JPEG decoding or memory management pipeline. We prepared to provide a sample project that demonstrates the issue if required. Our case number is 102678393572. We urgently need to understand why this happens at the OS level to ensure our app is safe and to contribute to the stability of the iOS platform. Please escalate this case to the appropriate technical team for a detailed investigation. Sincerely,

Hello, We are experiencing a consistent delay when initiating Apple Pay sessions using the https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession endpoint. Below is a detailed overview of our setup and the issue. Setup Our web service is hosted in AWS and there is a proxy server between our web service and Apple servers. We are passing the correct domain in the initiativeContext field of the startSession request. The .well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file is hosted on a different domain, which is also correctly configured and associated with our merchant ID in the Apple Developer portal. Observed Behavior When the same request is made from a local development environment, Apple responds immediately (under 1 second). When the request is made from our AWS-hosted service, Apple responds with a valid session, but only after a consistent ~15-second delay. The content and response are otherwise identical — only the timing differs. We would appreciate any insights or suggestions from others who have faced similar behavior or from the Apple Pay team. Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone, After updating to Xcode 16.4, my StoreKit configuration stopped working. Whenever I run the app with a .storekit file set as the active scheme, I immediately get this alert: “The file has been changed. Do you want to save your changes or revert to the file on disk?” No matter if I choose Save Anyway or Revert, StoreKit testing does not work - the purchases are not simulated, and the scheme is basically broken. This issue didn’t exist in Xcode 15.4 - the same StoreKit configuration file works fine there. What I tried so far: Clearing Derived Data - no effect Making sure no scripts/tools modify the .storekit file - still happens Restarting Xcode and macOS - no change Environment: Xcode 16.4 Happens in both Simulator and on device Reproducible 100% Has anyone else seen this in 16.4? Any known workarounds until Apple fixes it? Thanks!

We are observing a significant increase in 410 "Unregistered/ExpiredToken" responses from APNs when sending push notifications after 20 July. According to documentation, this indicates that the device token is no longer valid for the specified topic. However, the sudden spike raises questions about whether there have been any recent updates or changes to APNs' token invalidation logic. Could you please confirm: Whether there have been any recent updates in APNs behavior related to 410 responses? If there are best practices or recommendations for handling large volumes of token invalidations in order to detect uninstallations?

I want to add different badge indicators on the dock bar based on the different states of the application. How can I do this?

I investigated what network interface names are assigned to carrier networks on a dual SIM iPhone by examining the output of getifaddrs(). (An part of the program used for this is provided below.) ////////////// struct ifaddrs *interfaces = NULL; struct ifaddrs *an_interface = NULL; if (0 == getifaddrs(&interfaces)) { an_interface = interfaces; while (an_interface != NULL) { if( an_interface->ifa_addr->sa_family == AF_INET) { NSString* name = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:an_interface->ifa_name]; NSLog(@"Interface name is: %@", name); } an_interface = an_interface->ifa_next; } } freeifaddrs(interfaces); In this investigation, it appeared that the interface name for the sXGP SIM selected under "iPhone > Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data" was always "pdp_ip0". (A screenshot of "Cellular Data" is provided below. this is sample of sXGP selected )" [QUESTION] Is the SIM selected in Settings of iPhone always assigned to "pdp_ip0"? [BACKGROUND] I am developing a VoIP application and opening sockets by specifying IP addresses for communication. On a dual SIM iPhone, multiple networks (IP addresses) are visible. Therefore, I need to determine which network to use. My question is whether I can reliably make this decision based on the network interface name. If the SIM selected in Settings is always assigned to "pdp_ip0", I intend to open the socket using the IP address of "pdp_ip0". Alternatively, should I use a different method to select the appropriate network interface?

Hello Apple Developer Community, We are developing a full-tunnel VPN app for macOS that utilizes a packet tunnel network system extension (via NEPacketTunnelProvider). We're committed to using a system extension for this purpose, as it aligns with our requirements for system-wide tunneling. The app is sandboxed and intended for distribution on the Mac App Store. Here's the workflow: The app (running in user context) downloads a VPN profile from our server. It generates private keys, appends them to the profile, and attempts to save this enhanced profile securely in the keychain. The packet tunnel system extension (running in root context) needs to access this profile, including the private keys, to establish the VPN connection. We've encountered challenges in securely sharing this data across the user-root boundary due to sandbox restrictions and keychain access limitations. Here's what we've tried so far, along with the issues: Writing from the App to the System Keychain: Attempted to store the profile in the system keychain for root access. This fails because the sandboxed app lacks permissions to write to the system keychain. (We're avoiding non-sandboxed approaches for App Store compliance.) Extension Reading Directly from the User Login Keychain: Tried having the extension access the user's login keychain by its path. We manually added the network extension (located in /Library/SystemExtensions//bundle.systemextension) to the keychain item's Access Control List (ACL) via Keychain Access.app for testing. This results in "item not found" errors, likely due to the root context not seamlessly accessing user-keychain items without additional setup. Using Persistent References in NETunnelProviderProtocol: The app stores the profile in the user keychain and saves a persistent reference (as Data) in the NETunnelProviderProtocol's identityReference or similar fields. The extension then attempts to retrieve the item using this reference. We manually added the network extension (located in /Library/SystemExtensions//bundle.systemextension) to the keychain item's Access Control List (ACL) via Keychain Access.app for testing. However, this leads to error -25308 (errSecInteractionNotAllowed) when the extension tries to access it, possibly because of the root-user context mismatch or interaction requirements. Programmatically Adding the Extension to the ACL: Explored using SecAccess and SecACL APIs to add the extension as a trusted application. This requires SecTrustedApplicationCreateFromPath to create a SecTrustedApplicationRef from the extension's path. Issue 1: The sandboxed app can't reliably obtain the installed extension's path (e.g., via scanning /Library/SystemExtensions or systemextensionsctl), as sandbox restrictions block access. Issue 2: SecTrustedApplicationCreateFromPath is deprecated since macOS 10.15, and we're hesitant to rely on it for future compatibility. We've reviewed documentation on keychain sharing, access groups (including com.apple.managed.vpn.shared, but we're not using managed profiles/MDM) as the profiles are download from a server, and alternatives like XPC for on-demand communication, but we're unsure if XPC is suitable for sensitive data like private keys during tunnel creation. And if this is recommended what is going to be the approach here. What is the recommended, modern approach for this scenario? Is there a non-deprecated way to handle ACLs or share persistent references across contexts? Should we pursue a special entitlement for a custom access group, or is there a better pattern using NetworkExtension APIs? Any insights, code snippets, or references to similar implementations would be greatly appreciated. We're targeting macOS 15+. Thanks in advance!

Development environment Xcode 26.0 Beta 6 iOS 26 Simulator macOS 15.6.1 To verify TLS 1.3 session resumption behavior in URLSession, I configured URLSessionConfiguration as follows and sent an HTTP GET request: let config = URLSessionConfiguration.ephemeral config.tlsMinimumSupportedProtocolVersion = .TLSv13 config.tlsMaximumSupportedProtocolVersion = .TLSv13 config.httpMaximumConnectionsPerHost = 1 config.httpAdditionalHeaders = ["Connection": "close"] config.enablesEarlyData = true let session = URLSession(configuration: config, delegate: nil, delegateQueue: nil) let url = URL(string: "https://www.google.com")! var request = URLRequest(url: url) request.assumesHTTP3Capable = true request.httpMethod = "GET" let task = session.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in if let error = error { print("Error during URLSession data task: \(error)") return } if let data = data, let responseString = String(data: data, encoding: .utf8) { print("Received data via URLSession: \(responseString)") } else { print("No data received or data is not UTF-8 encoded") } } task.resume() However, after capturing the packets, I found that the ClientHello packet did not include the early_data extension. It seems that enablesEarlyData on URLSessionConfiguration is not being applied. How can I make this work properly?

Hi Team, when our customers turn on bluetooth connectivity whether Apple creates a profile of the user or their locations and if it is used for any other purpose. Could you please clarify this? we are getting the below message in the Bluetooth permissions popup below the map "Information from Bluetooth devices can be used to determine your location and create a profile of you." What is this profile? and what is the purpose of creating it while the user uses Bluetooth in ios app.

Dear Apple App Store Review Team, We are currently developing an application focused on user data asset management, aimed at helping users better protect and manage their personal data. One of the core features of our application is to allow users to access files stored on their mobile devices from other devices within the same local network. At present, our implementation works as follows: once the application is launched, it starts an HTTP service in the background to support access from other devices within the local network. However, we have encountered a technical challenge in the iOS environment: when the application is moved to the background or the device screen is turned off, the system imposes strict limitations on the runtime of background tasks. Our testing has shown that, typically after about 30 seconds, the background HTTP service is suspended by the system, which prevents other devices from continuing to access the files. As developers, we would like to clarify the following: What specific technical steps are required to enable a continuous background HTTP service under iOS? During development, which aspects (e.g., system permission configurations, App Store review guidelines) need to be addressed to support such functionality? What qualifications or requirements (e.g., entitlement requests, compliance documentation) are necessary for an application to provide unrestricted HTTP service in the background? If such behavior is not officially supported, we kindly request that you provide the relevant official guidelines and documentation so that we can fully understand the applicable policies and requirements. Thank you very much for your time and guidance.

We are develop an application with corebluetooth framework. we connect to device with ble. and open two l2cap channels. it can transfer data with stream. but when it close the second l2cap channel, it always close the first l2cap channel.

When submitting an app for review, will any unreviewed auto-renewing subscriptions within the app be reviewed simultaneously? I own an app that has passed review and offers an auto-renewing subscription A within the app that has also passed review. To test a new service, I plan to create a new auto-renewing subscription B, which I do not intend to submit for review. After creating Subscription B, I plan to submit the app for review as part of an app update. In that case, is there a possibility that Subscription B will also be reviewed?

A user of my app noticed that when using it to move a file to the trash on an USB drive, the trash doesn't show the file until unmounting the drive and mounting it again. I was able to reproduce it with one of my own USB drives, but with another USB drive it doesn't reproduce. All USB drives are formatted APFS. When moving a file to the trash from the Finder, both USB drives immediately list it in the trash. Is this a macOS bug, or am I doing something wrong? I created FB19941168. let openPanel = NSOpenPanel() openPanel.runModal() let url = openPanel.urls[0] do { var result: NSURL? try FileManager.default.trashItem(at: url, resultingItemURL: &result) print(result as Any) } catch { fatalError(error.localizedDescription) }
