Add “Share & Delete” Option to iOS Share Sheet (Photos, Files, etc.)
🧠 Feature Proposal: Share & Delete Option for iOS Share Sheet 🔍 Problem: Many users frequently share temporary content like group photos, screenshots, or memes. After sharing, these files often stay in the Photos or Files app, leading to storage clutter. 💡 Solution: Introduce a "Share & Delete" option inside the default iOS Share Sheet. 📲 How it works: User selects photo(s)/file(s) Opens the Share Sheet Sees two options: 📤 Share (Standard) 🗑️ Share & Delete (New Option) After sharing, iOS prompts: "Do you want to delete these items from your device?" ✅ Benefits: Reduces storage usage Simplifies file cleanup Speeds up user workflow 🔐 Safety Considerations: Confirm deletion after successful share Show “Undo” or move to Recently Deleted 📂 Attribution: Originally proposed by Vicky on July 20, 2025. More Details & UI Mockup: 👉 GitHub: https://github.com/vicky2940/share-and-delete-feature 👉 Android Tracker Submission: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/433195069 Please consider this small but impactful UX enhancement for future iOS versions.

macOS 26: Can’t add a new VPN configuration
On one of my machines (new MacMini M4Pro) I can’t add any new VPN configuration, doesn’t matter what I use. Trying to set up Tailscale, I get to the point where Tailscale brings up the "Allow VPN configuration" panel. If I hit the "Allow VPN Configuration" button, then macOS pops up its own panel: "Tailscale" Would Like to Add VPN Configurations All network activity on this Mac may be filtered or monitored when using VPN. [Allow] [Don’t Allow] I hit the allow button, and after a short wait the Tailscale panel shows in red "You must allow this to use Tailscale". I can repeat this as often as I want, but Tailscale isn’t added to the VPN configurations. If I use any other third party VPN app, I get similar results: nothing gets added to the VPN configurations. If I use macOS’s System Settings and hit the "Add VPN Configuration" pop-up menu in the VPN section, and e.g. add an IKEv2 setup, it ask me to authenticate, and then provides me with the panel into which to put the relevant settings. I enter some test settings, and then hit the [Create] button... …and nothing! The new VPN configuration doesn’t show up in the list, where it should show up. It’s as if I had done nothing. No matter what I do, the VPN configurations are immutable. I suspect that some folder somewhere is either missing or for some reason has the wrong permissions. Where are these VPN configurations stored? Any other hints on how to fix this? Reinstalling the OS does’t fix this, since this issue persisted across various betas of macOS26

The subscription item redeemed from the Appstore cannot be detected within the app(storekit2,promo code)
The minimum support for the project is iOS 15.2, and the subscription function is implemented using StoreKit2. Problem: The redemption was successful within the Appstore, but the redemption item cannot be detected through code within the app.(The subscription function has been implemented and tested) Here is my code, I am not sure if it is due to storeKit2 (as seen elsewhere) or if there is a problem with the testing method. If there is a correct testing method for the promoCode redemption scenario, please let me know. for await verificationResult in Transaction.currentEntitlements { switch verificationResult { case .verified(let transaction): if transaction.revocationDate != nil { print("unsubscribe:\(transaction)") break } if transaction.offerType == .code,let code = transaction.offerID { print("Have promoCode") print("promoCode: \(code)") let dateF = DateFormatter() dateF.dateFormat = "yyyy.MM.dd HH.mm.ss" if let expireDate = transaction.expirationDate { print("endTime:\(dateF.string(from: expireDate))") } } //.consumable,.nonConsumable,.autoRenewable,.nonRenewable if transaction.productType == .autoRenewable { print("Have subscription:\(transaction)") let dateF = DateFormatter() dateF.dateFormat = "yyyy.MM.dd HH.mm.ss" if let expireDate = transaction.expirationDate { print("endTime:\(dateF.string(from: expireDate))") } }else{ print("\(transaction)") } case .unverified(let unverifiedTransaction, let verificationError): print("checkProduct:error") } }

Image cropping
Currently, I’m working on developing a small macOS utility tool for my photography. In my camera, I have a digital zoom feature. I prefer using this feature when I shoot both JPEG and DNG files. While the JPEG is already cropped to the desired format, the DNG file contains metadata (DefaultUserCrop: 0.22, 0.22, 0.78, 0.78). For instance, when I open that DNG file in Lightroom, it pre-crops the image non-destructively. However, I prefer using Pixelmator Pro for editing. Unfortunately, Pixelmator Pro doesn’t have this feature. So, I thought I could create an app that allows me to pre-crop the image for editing in Pixelmator Pro afterward. Does someone have a better idea or some hints on how I could solve it?

NoobScript : a new (php-esq) programming language for mac/iOS etc development
Noob Software has been working on a new programming language designed primarily for mac development, with a syntax similar to PHP and some aspects from JavaScript. To demonstrate this language i've released the code for one of my apps "Noob Music" https://github.com/noobsoftware/NoobMusic3 i would like to hear if people are interested in using this programming language. I think there are many benefits to the high level syntax and high level thinking, and not having to define datatypes and such. The language also supports multithreading using the "async" keyword prefixed in front of the function keyword, like you would do in JavaScript only with multithreading instead of interleaved processing. Pushing to array is threadsafe and some other functinonality as well and it is recommended to use a new class instance within each async function. I have relied heavily on using webviews for UI so there is a layout engine i have developed for native view elements in Cocoa which at this point ar primarily WebViews. The webviews can define a callback function to receive messages from JavaScript, so combining these methods you get a full fledged "web" development feeling for mac development, with HTML+CSS+JavaScript and NoobScript

iOS26 Wi-FI Aware Sample Fails to Retrieve Paired Devices
Device: iPhone 15 Pro Max | iPhone 16 Pro iOS Version: iOS26.0(23A5287g) Xcode Version:26.0 beta 3 (17A5276g) Sample Code: Wi-Fi Aware Sample https://developer.apple.com/documentation/WiFiAware/Building-peer-to-peer-apps I tried using the official sample code to verify the Wi-Fi Aware functionality between two iPhones. During testing, the devices successfully paired — I can see each other’s devices under Settings > Privacy & Security > Paired Devices. However, in the Wi-FIAwareSample app, neither the Host nor the Viewer can retrieve the paired devices. I’m not sure what’s causing this issue. Any insights? do { for try await updatedDeviceList in WAPairedDevice.allDevices { // always 0 key/value pairedDevices = Array(updatedDeviceList.values) } } catch { logger.error("Failed to get paired devices: \(error)") }

Authentication Methods Research
Hi everyone, I am doing some research into authentication methods on iOS apps. I'm looking to understand the choices iOS developers make and why. If you're an iOS developer, I’d be super grateful if you could take a couple of minutes to fill out a short questionnaire — it’s just 6 questions plus a few demographics, and it really helps my research. 🙂 This is a Swansea University research project approved by the Faculty of Science and Engineering under approval number 120251357213133. Link to questionnaire: https://forms.microsoft.com/e/YZme9jYZE6

Running out of space with macOS Tahoe Developer Beta.
Earlier this afternoon I was about to update to the latest developer beta. Finder indicated that I had 12GB free, so I did some house cleaning and improved that to 21GB. I downloaded the beta and have had nothing but problems since. Mail complained: Mail cannot save information about your mailboxes because there isn't enough space in your home folder. Quit Mail and delete any files you don't need. Then open Mail again. Quit Restarted computer. Same problem. Opened Feedback Assistant. Tried to create a new ticket and got: The operation couldn't be completed. (NSSQLiteErrorDomain error 13.) Finder indicates 589MB free (New beta taking up 20GB after update???). Any suggestions?

Developer Enrollment Application
I'm near my wit's end. My school district's developer application has been "pending" for nearly 4 months. Every time I call, which is every couple of weeks or so, I'm told the department reviewing the application cannot be contacted and that they will "escalate it." Apparently, this other department doesn't even have a phone number. Does anyone have any idea why it would be taking this long? They have all our documentation. Absolutely zero communication unless I call. PLEASE HELP!

Have not received weekly analytics email for over a month
The last "App Store Connect: App Analytics Weekly Summary" email I received was June 3. My apps are still up and the emails are not going to spam. In my Apple Developer settings, "App Analytics Weekly Email Summary" is still set to on (i.e. "Receive a weekly email."). Coincidentally, on June 9 I received an email about updated agreements and guidelines, which I hadn't logged in to accept until today. Is this related, and if so, why should it be? If something else is causing the missing emails, how can that be resolved?
