Hello everyone, My team is exploring the implementation of an Apple Wallet pass for a loyalty program linked to a brand in an age-restricted product category. The intended use cases for the Wallet pass are: Member identification at events — Quick verification at brand events or exclusive venues, with tier-based perks (e.g., priority entry for higher tiers) Support services — Members present their card at retail locations to receive assistance Tier and points display — Dynamic visual changes based on loyalty level and current points balance Notifications — Pass updates for expiring points, upcoming events, or relevant announcements The pass would function as a standard Store Card (membership/loyalty) — no payments, no stored value, just identification and informational display. Before investing development effort, I'd like to understand: Has anyone successfully implemented Wallet passes for brands in restricted categories (tobacco, alcohol, etc.)? Are there specific guidelines or restrictions I should be aware of beyond the standard Wallet documentation? Is there a recommended channel to get official guidance from Apple on eligibility before building? Any insights or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello everyone, I am working on an enterprise solution for a "closed network" environment using Cellular Local Push Notifications via the NEAppPushManager and NEAppPushProvider frameworks. Current Status: We have successfully implemented and tested Local Push over both Wi-Fi (matching SSIDs) and Cellular networks. For cellular, we are currently manually configuring the NEPrivateLTENetwork with specific Mobile Country Codes (MCC) and Mobile Network Codes (MNC). The implementation is working correctly in our test environment. The Challenge: To move this into a production environment and ensure global reliability across different regions, we need a "Golden Source" for these network codes. Relying on manual lookups or unofficial community databases introduces risk for a production-grade application. My Questions: Production-Grade Source: What is the Apple-recommended or industry-standard "source of truth" for a comprehensive and up-to-date list of global MCC/MNC pairs for 2026? Validation: For those who have deployed NEPrivateLTENetwork at scale, how do you handle the validation of these codes to ensure the matchPrivateLTENetworks array always contains the correct, current data for the user’s provisioned SIM? Private Network Standards: Since we are operating in a closed environment, are there specific recommendations for using the ITU-designated shared MCC (e.g., 999 or 901) versus standard public carrier codes in a production context? Any insights from Apple engineers or developers who have scaled this in an enterprise environment would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Sudhakar

Hello. I’m on iOS 26. I’m very protective over my children’s phone and use screen time religiously. ios 26 does have delete history grayed out , but there’s a glitch! You’re able to swipe and delete history under the bookmarks history and tabs section. Also if you type in a website like Walmart, it will bring it up and then allow you to swipe to the left and hit the red delete history and it shows up nowhere in your history! please help me find a fix for this!! i do allow safari but definitely want to be able to check the websites being viewed!!! also - iOS 26 does not let u block apple.comunder your not allowed websites. Which means they can now use Apple Maps and third party browser on Apple.com for example under the simple weather app before I had Apple blocked to where none of this could be accessed through stock apple apps! i appreciate any help!!!

I strongly dislike the new “Liquid Glass” design implementation, specifically the forced white border around app icons. I use custom app icons on my Home Screen, and the entire reason they work visually is because they do not have borders. The newly added white outline completely breaks the aesthetic, clashes with custom icon packs, and makes carefully curated Home Screens look messy and inconsistent. Beyond that, the “glass” effect itself is harder to appreciate in real-world use. Once you’re actually navigating your phone - opening apps, scrolling, switching screens- the effect becomes distracting rather than enhancing. The white border especially draws attention away from the icons themselves and makes the Home Screen feel visually noisy. What’s most frustrating is that this change is not optional. A major visual redesign like this should absolutely include: • A toggle to disable icon borders • Or a way to opt out of Liquid Glass entirely • Or at minimum, a “Classic / Flat Icons” option for users who value customization

So I have an M3 Max MBP which I was planning on taking out to use while my son had his 4-hours-long archery class, but I've been using the Studio (running Tahoe) for development, and the version of Xcode running on there is too new for the version running on the MBP. So I try to update the MBP, but Settings thinks it's up to date: This is an M3 Max... so that seems ... unlikely. I've tried rebooting the thing, I've tried clicking any number of times on the 'check for updates' button, but no joy. Anyone got any pointers ?

Apple son güncellemeden sonra saatiyle bağlantı kurmuyor bu çevremdeki herkesin yaşadığı bir sorun

one of my app users cancelled the subscription from settings. After that, she tried to buy the subscription from app which she could not as I receive same transaction id and previous exp date.

Around October 17, our app was removed from the App Store, and we were later informed that our developer account would be terminated within 30 days. This was an unexpected and shocking notice for us. After carefully reviewing Apple’s Developer Guidelines, we conducted a thorough internal investigation and confirmed that we did, in fact, violate certain policies. However, we are unsure whether the Apple Review Team could give us an opportunity to make corrections—otherwise, our new apps will not be able to launch on the App Store in the future. The stated reason for our account termination was: “You provided fraudulent and/or false account information, documentation, or otherwise falsely represented yourself or your submitted app to Apple either during the account enrollment process or after the account was created.” After reviewing this issue, we identified two foolish and critical mistakes on our part: We registered our developer account using our Mainland China company, but used a Hong Kong company’s bank account for payments. (Both companies are under the same management, and we have submitted supporting documentation during our appeal.) Our official website, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service also displayed the name of our Hong Kong company instead of the Mainland China entity used for registration. Despite these mistakes, we have continued to support our users through email and our Discord community, resolving most issues within 24 hours. We have never deceived our users or the Apple Review Team in any way. For us as developers, providing an excellent user experience has always been our top priority, and we have always aimed to follow Apple’s review and compliance standards closely. We sincerely hope that, given our situation, the Apple Review Team could grant us an opportunity to correct these issues. We will promptly register a new Hong Kong Apple Developer Account, and once our app is reinstated, we will migrate all relevant information to that new account to ensure full compliance moving forward.

Hi @DTS Engineer in tvOS 26.2 Beta is still this annoying Shadow Glitch… 😔 I have submitted an Bug-Report, but dont get an Answer… FB18719371 The Animation is not smooth and the Shadow is abruptly „jumping“… I don’t get any Response from the Apple Engineers. But this GUI Glitch makes the otherwise very high-quality tvOS GUI appear very unprofessional. Could you please help me? 🤔

Hello guys, We have updated our app icon, and it is correctly reflected in our app build and assets. However, the push notification icon is still displaying the old version for some users. ✅ We have verified that: All icon assets in Assets.xcassets match the new icon. The app icon has been updated in Info.plist. The app has been resubmitted and approved on the App Store. ❌ However, some users still see the old notification icon, even after reinstalling the app. Restarting the device does not always resolve the issue. Could you provide insights into how iOS caches notification icons and how we can force a refresh for all users?

I have a Macbook and a Mac Mini at home, connected with Universal Control. When I copy-paste some big group of files (say, 250GB of photos) the OS creates a copy of all those files under shared-clipboard in Library (filling up disk space in short time) even if I don't even move the cursor to other devices. It doesn't even delete those files and clear up disk space even after I paste it. This is a design flaw, it shouldn't be like this.

Regardless of how long my Mac has been running, clicking on the Messages app causes it to bounce repeatedly. Eventually, it stops and behaves as if it has opened, but sometimes it doesn’t open at all. When it does open, the messages either don’t sync or take several hours to load. Most of the time, the last synced messages are over a week old. Occasionally, I can only message certain people from my Mac. If I attempt to text someone from my Mac, it freezes completely, requiring me to force quit. Interestingly, I don’t encounter any issues between my iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro. Both my iPhone and iPad are running the latest macOS betas.

This is unique situation, save your rhetoric calling me crazy unless you’re willing to look at the evidence I’ve collected over the last 2 years. My entire family is being stalked and harassed by a DOD Contractor named Galapagos Federal Systems. They are literally using our identities to and accounts they’ve created to run Amazon Marketplace Business Accounts as sellers. They have amended my tax returns and they have hijacked my domain, which is MauiEasyRiders.Com. It’s pretty easy to see that they’ve hikacked my domain as they are using more than 20 ports around the clock, and I had to walk away from my business of 15 years because of a DDoS attack that is literally impossible to escape. These people are the lowest of the low. They have 250 million dollars in DODcontracts and they are registered as a small section 8a Native Hawaiian owned business, regardless of the fact that the owner is not Hawaiian and not from Hawaii, and the business was formed in Delaware. Their headquarters is literally a house in a neighborhood with nothing but a big ass can in the driveway, no traffic, no offices, just spook government hacks. I’ve mailed a complaint to the DOD hotline, been to the FBI in person, filled out all the forms online for every possible agency, filed police reports, nobody will even glance at the data I’ve accumulated and meticulously detailed, both in pdf format and on paper. They’re using my mothers identity and the identities of my two adult sons. It’s ridiculous. I literally have 90 Ip addresses in my DNS Leak Test and my home WiFi is hosting 190 IP Addresses. They have a Cisco business account in my name with over two hundred ASA and Fire IO devices that are years out of date. I have their exploit data, names, email addresses, absolutely everything I could possibly need that anyone investigating fraud would ask for, yet these parasites continue to carry out their crimes as if the law doesn’t apply to them. The only thing I have not tried is going to my Representatives from Washington in person. Anyone have any ideas? I’m happy to share data if anyone is interested in seeing it, even if you’re not interested in helping I’m happy to share all the info I can on their fraud. Thanks in advance!

I'm developing an App, a function is through the bluetooth firmware upgrade. there is a problem now. when I send data via bluetooth, App into the background, the data sent to immediately stop, peripheralIsReadyToSendWriteWithoutResponse will not be invoked, At the same time canSendWriteWithoutResponse always returns false. When I open the App again, peripheralIsReadyToSendWriteWithoutResponse still will not be invoked, canSendWriteWithoutResponse or returns false. I have set Acts as a Bluetooth LE accessory and Uses Bluetooth LE accessories. Is there a good way to send data to the device when my App goes into the background?

2nd time this happened within weeks. Caution to all developers. Used to be reliable. Don't rely on it any more.

Since updating to tvoS 26.1/2 YouTube audio breaks when playing videos at anything other than 1x speed. At 1.25x or higher, the audio is "static-y" and distorted almost immediately. Strangely, AirPods work fine, it only happens with other audio outputs. Anyone else experiencing this, or have a fix? tvOS: 26.2 (23J582) YouTube app: 4.51.08 Speed Output Static 1x TV speakers No 1x HomePods No 1x AirPods Pro 3 No 1.25x TV speakers Yes 1.25x HomePods Yes 1.25x HomePods Mini Yes 1.25x Sonos One Yes 1.25x AirPods Pro 3 No

Hi everyone, I’m running into repeated App Store rejections under Guideline 5.2.1 (Ownership) and would appreciate advice from anyone who’s navigated this successfully. Context: • The app is called FitQuest: AI Health Coach • FitQuest is a product/brand name, not a legal entity • The legal owner and operator is PandeyInvestment LLC • The Apple Developer account is under PandeyInvestment LLC • There are no third-party brand affiliations or white-label use • The app was built using a third-party app builder (web-to-native wrapper) What I’ve already provided to App Review: • Official LLC formation documents • A signed ownership & authorization letter explicitly stating: • FitQuest is a product owned by PandeyInvestment LLC • PandeyInvestment LLC is solely responsible for the app, services, and data • Clear explanations in Resolution Center replies Despite this, Apple continues to respond that the app “appears to be created from an app generation service and not directly submitted by the owner/provider of the business or service,” and asks again whether FitQuest is a business entity. My questions: 1. Is Apple expecting the app name to exactly match the legal entity name in cases like this? 2. Has anyone resolved a similar issue without creating a separate DBA or renaming the app to the LLC name? 3. Are there specific metadata fields (Seller Name, Copyright, Support URL, etc.) that reviewers rely on more heavily for ownership verification? 4. Is there additional documentation Apple typically accepts beyond LLC registration + signed authorization? Any guidance or firsthand experience would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance.
