I set iOS 26 to install overnight, put my iPhone 16 Pro on the MagSafe charger, watched it charge just fine, and went to sleep. When I woke up the iPhone showed the “plug into power” dead battery screen. I took it off MagSafe and put it back on. A half hour later the phone was warm but still wouldn’t power on, just showed the battery screen with a little red in it. I took it off MagSafe and plugged it into my iPad charging brick with USB cable to give it more power, still it did not turn on. I tried holding all the buttons to try to force a restart but didn’t work.
For anyone else encountering this, do this to enter DFU mode and restore it. I had to do it a few times before I got the timing right.
Plug into your Mac and open Finder (or apparently a PC with Apple Devices or iTunes)
Press and quickly release volume up
Press and quickly release volume down
Press and hold right side button
When the battery disappears and screen goes black, hold volume down and continue holding side button
After a couple seconds release the side button and continue holding volume down
A prompt to allow connecting to the iPhone should appear after a couple seconds, click Allow, and it’ll say the iPhone entered DFU mode - proceed to restore the firmware

I've been trying to add my bank info to my account on AppStore connect, but nothing seems to work. Even searching for my bank does not work for me. Even tried searching for any other bank does not work. Keeps giving error messages.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Both Apple and third-party apps in CarPlay are not displaying properly after updating to iOS 26 public beta two. I submitted feedback, wondering if anybody else had this problem and have solved it. The only apps that appear to be working normally are map apps like Apple Maps, Google Maps and Waze. The others show only background, but if you tap on the touchscreen it will perform an action as if the tile/link is there, but invisible
My iPad 7th generation updated to iOS 18.3 I’m getting the loading 5 bar symbol and No sound at all . Tried hard resetting multiple time and nothing works

Updated iPhone to 26 beta 2, everything is ok but battery, battery is changed, not original. My phone can't charge higher than 1% and turns off every 5 minutes, even connecting to wireless charger and cable at the same time don't work, restored iPhone thru iTunes.I hope I will be able to install new beta without any problems because loving the new design,hoping for the best. Thanks.
Area: Software Update
Type of Feedback: Application Bug
Description
Device: iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 26
Build environment: Xcode 16.4
Problem description:
When a text field has secureTextEntry = YES and Password Autofill / Passkeys is active, the autofill panel is not included in the rect reported from the keyboard notifications (UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey or others).
As a result, when calculating the offset to move the screen up and reveal the hidden input field, the field is not displayed correctly because the reported keyboard height is smaller than the actual visible height.
Observed behavior:
This only occurs on devices running iOS 26 built with Xcode 16.4.
On previous versions of iOS, with the same settings (secureTextEntry and Autofill active), the rect correctly includes the autofill panel height, and the UI works as expected.
I tested with both UIKeyboardDidShowNotification and UIKeyboardWillChangeFrameNotification, and in both cases the behavior is the same: the height is incorrect (smaller than expected with the autofill panel).
What I expect / questions:
That UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey (or the related notification) correctly reports the total area covered by the keyboard, including any password autofill panel, when secureTextEntry is active.
That the new behavior in iOS 26 be documented if this omission is intentional, or otherwise considered a bug if it is not.
If there is any official workaround suggested by Apple for developers affected by this issue while a fix is provided.
Thank you for your support.
Hi there,
I am new to Xcode26 and dragged my AppIcon.icon (created with Icon Composer) into the project. Then build failed with "Could not locate icontool".
Could anyone point me to the cleanest way to solve this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

With ios 26 the chapter images are not updating anymore. At first I thought this is carlay related but it also occures when the phone is connected only through USB or bluetooth to play a podcast. I tried Apple podcasts and other apps like Pocketcast or audible. Same problem. The phone shows the correct chapter image while my car shows the inital image all the time. Even tried a different car :-)
I checked focus and settings but found nothing related.
With ios18 everything works fine.
Any ideas?
I'm suddenly receiving zero products from SKProductsRequest, even though this setup previously worked without issues. The debugger shows that both of my product identifiers are now being returned under invalidIdentifiers, and response.products is empty.
I’ve confirmed the following:
There are no pending agreements in App Store Connect.
The subscription is active and configured correctly.
The product identifiers match exactly with what’s defined in App Store Connect.
Here is the delegate method I'm using (unchanged from when it previously worked):
extension UpgradeViewModelProvider: SKProductsRequestDelegate {
func productsRequest(_ request: SKProductsRequest, didReceive response: SKProductsResponse) {
if response.products.count > 0 {
delegate.send(.onProduct(response.products))
}
}
}
Since everything was functioning before, I’m trying to understand what may have caused the identifiers to suddenly be marked as invalid. Any guidance or suggestions on what to check next would be greatly appreciated.
I am having some serious issues with all of my music apps on the latest beta of iPadOS 18.3.
when I try to open them , the splash page pops open , freezes then crashes.
i can open Logic Pro and it opens fine, but if I try to open a project with any of my third party music apps in that project, Logic gives me an error message stating that it can’t access coremidi. It gives me the option to continue and then proceeds to play the project without issue, with all of the third party apps functioning within Logic. If I try to open a third party program outside of Logic ( that just played in Logic) the 3rd party app crashes.
Anyone else having issues with their 3rd party music apps? I have never had so many apps in a particular genre that just wouldn’t function in any of the recent betas.
Dear Apple Developer Community,
I hope this message finds you well. I'm seeking guidance regarding an issue with my Apple Developer account and the future status of my app.
Issue Summary:
Account Status: My Apple Developer account has been locked (cannot be used) without any clear reason. Despite contacting both Apple Support and Apple Developer Support, I haven't received a workable solution to regain access.
App Status: Currently, my mobile app remains visible and downloadable on the Apple App Store.
Concerns:
Future of the App: I'm concerned about the future availability of my app. I've heard that apps associated with locked or inactive developer accounts might be archived or removed after a certain period. Is this accurate? If so, what is the typical timeframe for such actions?
Similar Experiences: Has anyone in the community encountered a similar situation with their developer account being locked and cannot be used? If so, were you able to resolve it, and how?
I appreciate any insights or advice from those who have faced similar challenges or have knowledge in this area. Your assistance would be invaluable in helping me navigate this situation.

Hello,
One of our apps has been rejected under Guideline 4.3 for spam.
Our studio has been on the App Store for 10+ years and this particular app has been available for over two years without previous issue.
We have submitted a couple responses to the original rejection outlining why we think our app is unique and not spam and unfortunately we have been rejected. I have also submitted an appeal and requested a phone call.
This is compounded by a live issue happening in our app right now that requires a build to unblock. I added that to our review notes for submission but was rejected.
We believe we have been flagged as spam in error and would like to release builds to our active players ASAP to get them unblocked and provide further value to them.
Beyond submitting an appeal and requesting a call is there anything else I can do?
Hello,
In my App.xcdatamodeld I have an entity called File.
When I am building the project with Xcode, file FileEntity+CoreDataProperties.swift is generated.
After upgrading Xcode to version 26.0 (17A324), I am getting the warning:
Public import of 'CoreData' was not used in public declarations or inlinable code
Any idea how to get rid of this warning since it's a generated file and I can't see any option to change it?

isPresented.toggle()
}){
Text("Choose")
}
.familyActivityPicker(
isPresented: $isPresented,
selection: $selection)
.onChange(of: selection){ value in

}
In the official version of iOS 18, when I click the Done button of familyActivityPicker, the fullScreenCover pop-up box will disappear.
Guideline 2.3.1 - Performance
The app contains hidden features.
Specifically, we still noticed that your app includes code which causes it to behave differently during the review process regarding web game presentation and payment. It would be appropriate to ensure that all features and functions in the app are visible and fully accessible during review.
Guideline 3.1.1 - Business - Payments - In-App Purchase
The app allows users to purchase digital content natively or via a web view in the app using payment mechanisms other than in-app purchase. Apps cannot include in-app payment mechanisms other than in-app purchase. Apps on the United States storefront may also include buttons, external links, or other calls to action to direct users to payment mechanisms other than in-app purchase.
We have been rejected three times due to hidden functions and issues with web payment and web games. However, in the last package we submitted for review, it was confirmed that the code related to web games was removed, and the code related to web interaction JS bridging payment calls was also removed
Dear experts, we sincerely invite you to offer your valuable suggestions. If you have any experience of meeting us, please share with us. We would be extremely grateful
since updating from 18.3 to 18.4, both on cellular and WiFi Networks I can’t connect to the internet.
Since the phone wont connect to the internet I’m not able to turn off “find my iPhone“ to restore my iPhone to iOS 18.3
this way my iPhone is useless
any ideas / thoughts about this?
Hello everyone, on August 31st, all the apps in my personal developer account were suddenly expired and deleted, I have not received any response from Apple. My apps are in compliance with Apple's policies. I then uploaded a new version and sent it to the review team, but I received the following error "There was an error processing your request. Please try again later."
I have contacted Apple via Email and Phone but no one cares about my problem.
Has anyone had the same situation as me, I am really worried.
I’m experiencing an issue on macOS Tahoe (Developer Beta, July 2025) related to the new “Allow in Menu Bar” section in System Settings.
After uninstalling the application Backdrop (developer: Cindori), the entry com.cindori.Backdrop.Wallpaper still appears in the list of apps allowed to show in the menu bar, even though:
— The app and all its associated files have been fully deleted.
— The LaunchAgents files in ~/Library/LaunchAgents and /Library/LaunchAgents have been removed.
— Preferences have been deleted via defaults delete com.cindori.Backdrop and defaults delete com.cindori.Backdrop.Wallpaper.
— The system has been restarted.
It seems the “Allow in Menu Bar” section keeps phantom references to apps or agents even after complete cleanup.
Could you please confirm if this is expected behavior (perhaps for future reactivation) or a bug?
Is there any official method or recommended command to permanently remove such residual entries from this list?
Thank you very much for your help and clarifications.

So I downloaded and installed iOS26 on my iPhone 15 Pro and after that it does not want to boot anymore. It shows a battery with one red line. Which is weird because before it restarted it had 80% of the battery and I had the power cable connected at all time. Now I can't boot it up anymore. Not even with the volume button up, down, power button trick. Please help!
