I will give some suggestions and action buttons about dynamic islands on iPhonesAfter dragging and dropping an application or file on dynamic islands, when I switch to any application or site, I can switch to that file or application by holding down the Dynamic Island As for the action button, we can assign features to the action button. A feature like this can come to it. When we press it twice, it will open the camera, when we press it once, it will open the flash. If such a feature comes, it will be easier to use

Hi Team,
I just want to know the reasoning behind why there are two IPSW with same version and different build IDs.
Example: https://ipsw.me/iPhone12,3
Version: 18.3
BuildIDs: 22D64 and 22D63
Also, in future, on what devices this kind of two buildIDs will be created?

Hello! I am new here but could really use some support. For the last year or so I have been bugged by the feeling that my devices were not completely managed by myself. After this week I have seen my computer and devices do things on their own without me touching the keyboard. SO I am hoping someone here can help me get rid or at least get to the root of the problem as I do not know what else I can do! SO far I know they are accessing all my devices remotely but am unsure how they do it since someone times there is no wifi around, I'm thiniking bluetooth maybe or perhaps another form of devices talking and sharing info with each other. Any support helps!!!

Hello,
I created a particular ray tracing based photo/video capture app for iPhone (which causes me several headaches in finding the optimal configuration) that which often offers very soft and visually beautiful shots but is trapped in the usual oblivion of apps from unknown developers.
While it is true that on the one hand the fact that almost no one downloads your app even if it is free can save you from several gaffes in the early days, in the long run it becomes depressing. So I thought of creating something that could be an incentive to try the app. Not having money to invest in prizes for contests or much more pragmatically in advertising, I thought of adding a function where you can see the best photos taken in your area and vote for them and, if you want, add a photo taken in the competition.
Do you think it could be a nice idea?
It's true that the problem itself is to overcome the wall of 0 downloads, where your app is neither successful nor unsuccessful because in fact nobody tries it, but without money for advertising I don't have many other ideas...
Thanks
Recently, I have decided to delete all my Twitter accounts, but it turns out an Apple ID was used for one of them, I am unable to delete this account due to that fact because I do not have access to the “email” required.
Twitter support says contact email provider, given that I used an Apple ID as the email, am I supposed to contact Apple support instead?

When changing the app's alternate icon using UIApplication.setAlternateIconName(_:completionHandler:), the icon is updated correctly on the Home Screen and App Switcher. However, in Notification Center, the old app icon is still shown for notifications, even after the change has completed. Rebooting or change the device's language causes the correct icon to appear.
This issue only occurs on iOS 18.1 and later. In iOS 18.0 and earlier, Notification Center correctly reflects the updated icon.
Could you provide insights into how iOS caches notification icons and how we can force a refresh for all users?
De officiële Syrische vlag met twee sterren is vervangen door de huidige Syrische vlag met drie sterren, wetende dat geen enkel land ter wereld de vlag van het land vervangt zonder deze in de grondwet van het land op te nemen.
Daarom is het beter om de Syrische vlag met twee sterren te behouden in de volgende iOS 18.4-release, of beide vlaggen samen te voegen, omdat de meeste Syriërs niet de voorkeur geven aan de vlag met drie sterren.
Hello,
I’m reaching out here because I have exhausted all other support channels without success. I submitted an enrollment request for the Apple Developer Program on March 3, 2025 (Enrollment ID: 3CJFXN3AA3), and it’s now been over 2.5 months with no resolution.
All required documents have been submitted, confirmed received by Apple Support, and multiple follow-ups have been made (Case #102541675488). Each time, I’m told that the case is still under review, but I haven’t received any clear update or timeline.
Is there anything else I can do to move this process forward? Is there a better way to escalate or contact someone who can help finalize the review?
Any advice or help from the community or Apple team would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Daniyar

Hello,
We are developing a social media application that allows users to share and view content in the form of images and videos. The app is built with Angular and Ionic, and we use Capacitor to integrate native functionalities.
Currently, we are experiencing an issue with content loading on iOS devices. Specifically, when the iPhone is connected to Wi-Fi, videos load quickly and play smoothly. However, when using mobile data, videos take a long time to load or, in some cases, do not load at all.
We are trying to identify the cause of the issue and determine whether it could be related to Xcode configuration or any system restrictions. Some potential reasons we have considered include:
iOS Mobile Data Usage Restrictions
iOS may limit mobile data usage for large downloads or streaming content if the app does not have the proper permissions.
In Settings > Mobile Data, users can restrict data usage for specific apps.
App Transport Security (ATS) Configuration
Xcode and iOS enforce strict security policies for network connections through App Transport Security (ATS).
If the API serving the videos uses HTTP instead of HTTPS or has restrictive headers, this could affect loading over mobile networks.
Xcode Network Usage Settings
Xcode allows configurations related to network access. There might be a setting limiting access to mobile networks when the device is not on Wi-Fi.
Video Quality and Adaptability Differences
If videos are not optimized for mobile networks (e.g., high-quality formats without adaptive versions), loading times could be significantly longer.
Implementing HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) could improve playback on slower networks.
Request Timeout Issues
If video loading requests have a short timeout, slower mobile network connections might exceed this limit, causing the request to fail.
Compression and Caching
It is essential to check if videos are properly compressed and if caching is implemented to improve performance on mobile networks.
Given this situation, we would like to know what Xcode settings might be affecting video loading performance on mobile data and how we can adjust them to enhance the user experience.

Regarding the Issue with URL Scheme Not Working。
Hello, our app on the App Store has the following CFBundleURLTypes configuration:
We've discovered that the qmkege:// URL scheme is failing to open the app.
Steps to Reproduce:
1、We downloaded the installation package from the App Store
2、Entered qmkege:// in Safari, but it fails to launch our app。
The system logs show the following:
Key Observation:
This issue is not consistently reproducible. In most cases, when we install the app directly from the App Store (without VPN), it works fine. However, the problem occurs when downloading the app through the App Store while connected via VPN.
Looking forward to your feedback.

Why can’t Apple just release a version that put the most frequent used emoticons in the most left side of the emoticons keyboard???
Each person always uses the same 20 or 30 emoticons.
How this could be reported to developers?
Thx

Apple announces a Japanese game (Assassin's Creed) in Japanese in Japan but then states "the App is currently not available in your country or region"... that is, Japan!
https://developer.apple.com/jp/news/?id=q2zte70j
Game is unavailable so why announce it?
I wish to have all spotlight services stopped on my MacBook, however with turning all options off in the settings and also the "Help Apple Improve Search" option, however the option turns back on whenever there is a restart on the laptop as well as background services running. How can I disable this permanently?
I have tried to following as well:
sudo mdutil -a -i off
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.metadata.mds.user.plist
sudo rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.spotlight.plist
sudo launchctl disable system/com.apple.metadata.mds
However with ps aux | grep -E "mds|Spotlight|corespotlightd" it still shows spotlight related services running:
User1 73830 0.0 0.0 410741568 1680 s018 S+ 11:58am 0:00.00 grep -E mds|Spotlight|corespotlightd

What else can I try in order to stop these and to stay shut off after turning my laptop on and off again?
I used spotlight search for almost everything I do through cmd+space. However ever since i updated my laptop to MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1, the spotlight search won't give me app results:
for example i type "flux" and will get just web-based results, not the app. I tried going into the spotlight settings and only enabling applications to be searched for results and got nothing. I tried the same with the Notes app, i get the same result, i get some notes i wrote as result but not the actual app.
It doesn't happen on all apps for example Brave or Spotify work.
Unable to select the desired build in App Store Connect; clicking on the build has no effect.
Steps to reproduce:
1.I select my app
2.I choose which build to add
3.I try to select the build
Expected result: I should be able to select the build
Actual result: Nothing happens
Browsers Tested: Google Chrome (both PC and mobile), safari mobile
