We're currently facing an issue with Intune not automatically updating/downloading the updated build/app to end-user ios devices. It's worth noting that we've recently migrated the Xamarin project to a .NET-style SDK in this version. Previously, the app used to update automatically without any problems. We'd appreciate it if you could help us understand what might be causing this issue.

Hello folks,
I stumbled upon a weird CNContact serialization problem. I use the Contacts framework to update the AIM field, which is one of the instantMessageAddresses within a single Contact. Here is the simplified code I used:
func updateAIMFieldOn(contact: CNContact, aimValue: String) {
do {
guard let mutableContact = contact.mutableCopy() as? CNMutableContact else {
logger.error("[CM] Couldn't update contact with aim \(aimValue)")
return
}
var updatedAddresses = mutableContact.instantMessageAddresses
updatedAddresses.append(CNLabeledValue(label: "", value: CNInstantMessageAddress(username: aimValue, service: CNInstantMessageServiceAIM)))
mutableContact.instantMessageAddresses = updatedAddresses
let saveRequest = CNSaveRequest()
saveRequest.update(mutableContact)
try CNContactStore().execute(saveRequest)
logger.verbose("Contact's AIM updated successfully!")
} catch {
logger.error("Couldn't update contact")
}
}
And after serializing the contact to data, and then deserializing, the contact got two AIM fields with the same value:
X-AIM;type=pref:some:part:of_my_aim_value
IMPP;X-SERVICE-TYPE=AIM;type=pref:some:part:of_my_aim_value
Why does it work in this manner? Is it possible that ":" char causes that? Format of my aim username is {some:part:of_my_aim_value}. I didn't find any information in the docs.
Thanks!
Hey everyone,
Is it possible and how to get Managed Apple ID (email) programmatically for user signed in to ipad through shared IPad feature ?
It would be good to have MDM independent solution, I mean API call to MDM service is not acceptable for us.
Maybe API call to ASM or ABM, or get that somehow on iOS device end... any advice ?
Thanks in advance,
Dima

Microsoft are retiring the “Azure AD Graph API”.
We allow the use of Apple email apps in our M365 tenant via the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application, however this is using the “User.Read” permission from this retiring “Azure AD Graph API”.
My concern is that Apple email app’s will stop working in our tenant when Microsoft retire the “Azure AD Graph API” and this permission is removed, as this is an Apple managed Enterprise Application, we have no method of changing the permissions ourselves.
I have not been able to find any information on how the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application can be updated to use the required, newer “Microsoft Graph API” “User.Read” permission.
It is not possible for us to change the permissions on the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application in our tenant, my assumption is that Apple would need to deploy a newer version of Email app that uses the newer “Microsoft Graph API” “User.Read” permission, and we would then need to consent the use of this new permission in our tenant.
I would have thought Apple would have deploy this by now, but we have not seen any consent requests.
Does anyone have any information about how Apple are handling this Microsoft change and how we can pre-emptively update the “Apple Internet Accounts” Entra ID Enterprise Application to ensure that Apple email client continue to work in our tenant?
Many thanks.

We have several apps that our business uses to connect to internal private HTTP sites. We noticed in IOS 18.3 we are getting SSL errors to the web server and noticed the issue in the Chrome Browser as well. Our team is looking at the Application Transport Security layer exceptions in our apps Info.Plist. We do notice the browser forcing HTTPS. Any insight on what could be the issue?

Hello,
I write my bachelor-thesis about geolocation data on an iPhone. I write a small app to get the actual coordinates and saved into a sqlite database. so far so far. Now I have a GPS-generator from R&S to simulate gps-data and satellites. I can simulate 6 satellites parallel to my "fake" geolocation. I write the app also on an Android -smartphone, this Android can display the Satellites-ID and the "fake" geolocation..thats fine for my thesis. But my iPhone would not display anything I this setup?
During outside the app would be deliver the actual coordinate, but with the signal.genarator I can't get coordinates.
I try GPS, Glosnass, Galileo and Beidoo but nothing happens on my iPhone 12mini.
The IOS is 18.1 and I use the core Location api.
Has anybody some ideas for me and my thesis?

We have an office application used internally within our enterprise. The Provisioning Profiles (PP) for the app were about to expire, so we updated the PP and released a new version. However, we've encountered an issue where some users did not update their phones in time. After the app expired, they found it unusable and downloaded the new version, but the newly downloaded app also crashes on launch. Restarting the phone does not resolve the issue, and this primarily occurs on iOS 18.3.2. What could be the cause of this problem, and how should we address it?

My company signed the application with enterprise certificate, the Provisioning Profile expired on March 20, 2025. Some iPhones didn't update the application before the expiration.
We have update the Provisioning Profile and repackaged application. However, these iPhones still can't use the application after reinstalling the new ipa. After opening the application, the screen is blank and then flashes back without any error prompt.
Restarting iPhone didn't help.
