How long was it between putting your first app on the App Store (that had a paid component to it like IAPs) and getting your first sale? I'm working on an app at the moment that I plan on putting up for a small one time fee. I'm curious to know what people's different experiences were with this.
What was your app and how did it go?
On recent versions of macOS (including current betas), when enabling Internet Sharing from Ethernet to Wi-Fi, the configured WPA2/WPA3 password is ignored and the shared network is broadcast as an open (unsecured) network.
Steps to Reproduce:
Connect Mac to Ethernet via USB/LAN adapter
Go to System Settings > General > Sharing > Internet Sharing
Set up Wi-Fi options with a valid WPA2/WPA3 password
Enable Internet Sharing
Expected Behavior:
Devices should see a password-protected Wi-Fi network with a lock icon and require authentication.
Actual Behavior:
The network appears unsecured (no lock icon)
Devices like iPhone connect without entering a password
This can be verified immediately from iOS Wi-Fi settings
Additional Notes:
Reproducible across macOS 15.5 RC and 16.0,26.0 Developer Beta
Feedback has been submitted via Feedback Assistant multiple times
This is a serious security risk if used in public or shared environments
Has anyone else experienced this? Any known workarounds besides terminal-level defaults or Plist edits?
Thanks in advance!

Macos15照片app需要点击一下,不能直接进入,点击一次后,还要再点击一下,才能看到照片,希望能修复一下
So recently, last week, ive updated to the Dev Beta of ios 26. This began the very issue of my cellular data. I woke up to a warning symbol where my cellular bars should be, telling me there was something wrong with my antenna or carrier when in reality there was no problem with any of those problems and took up about 53% of my storage. This is absolutely insane and unacceptable.

Created an ios app and try to scan for nearby bluetooth devices but didn't manage to find my Macbook (M1 Pro, Sequoia).
How can it be done?
Trying to match the peripheral name but didn't get it.
The purpose of this is to try to see if the App can act as a FIDO2 Token to have the close proximity feature.
Under multiple display screens (left and right screens), when a commonly used app application clicks "Window" -> "Move to..." When it comes to this, the app cannot be completely moved to the other window but instead moves to the middle of the two Windows for display. Is this a bug of the system?
Hi Everyone,
I’m currently working on a flow where a web page redirects to our app to perform certain actions, and then returns the user back to the browser. However, on iOS, the only way to go back to the browser is by using the openURL method. The issue is that this method can only open the browser app itself—it can’t control which tab or page is shown, so the user doesn’t return to the original tab they came from. The same limitation also applies to Android.
Furthermore, iOS doesn’t allow an app to programmatically return to the previous app (in this case, the browser). While Android doesn’t have an official way either, in some cases, the OS automatically returns to the previous app when ours is closed.
I’d like to ask:
Is there any known method or workaround that allows returning from my app back to Safari (or the default browser) and restoring the previously active web page or tab?
Or, is there any way to programmatically return to the previous app from within my app?
Thanks in advance for your support!
m personal iPhone is managed by an Unauthorized and Unknown mdm management team, The profile isn’t showing up in VPN Settings and I can’t remove them from having Remote access and control over my Personal Device! I’ve SPENT MANY MONTHS TRYING TO GET SUPPORT VIA EMAILING APPLE DEVELOPER AND SPEAKING TO APPLE SUPPORT WHICH HAS BEEN EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING AND HUMILIATIN! I’ve resorted to contacting Internet crime websit, the federal trade commissio, Better business bureau and Consumer Affairs to file an online complaint against Apple for not complying with their Security and Privacy policy for consumers accounts!
Because of this unauthorized and unknown mdm devi management profile I don’t have COMPLETE CONTROL OVER MY OWN IPHONE!

I submitted my ID for review over a week ago, and it's still the same, I can't log in App Store Connect?
How long have you been waiting?
Have a nice day.

Besides not being able to update the software bc an error appears, I also don‘t have the abbility to use mobile data. If I try to, it only says „could not activate mobile data network“. I already tried to restart the phone, to reset it or to take the SIM out and in

I’m running macOS 26 Beta 1 (build 25A5279m) on a 2019 Mac Pro (MacPro7,1) with a single 4K display connected via HDMI. Whenever I attempt to launch Finder, WindowServer immediately aborts and the machine reboots.
Crash details:
Process: WindowServer (PID 1441)
Exception: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) triggered in thread 0 (ws_main_thread)
Termination Reason: Abort trap: 6
Backtrace highlights:
CA::OGL::MetalContext::draw(MTLPrimitiveType, …) hits an internal __assert_rtn in libsystem_c.dylib
Subsequent calls all stem from QuartzCore’s OpenGL/Metal bridge (CA::OGL::render_layers, LayerNode::apply, etc.)
Related threads:
Thread 2 (com.apple.coreanimation.render-server) idle in mach_msg_overwrite
Thread 1 shows AmbientDisplay and ColorSync callbacks running
Hardware/Software:
MacPro7,1 (2019)
macOS 26.0 Beta 1 (25A5279m)
4K monitor via HDMI
System Integrity Protection enabled
What I’ve tried so far:
Safe-boot (crash still occurs)
Switching display profiles in System Settings → Displays → Color (no effect)
Happy to provide any additional logs or verbose console output. Let me know if there’s any other data that would help diagnose the Metal/OpenGL integration issue in this beta.
Hi, I have a question related to eligibility. If we consider the eligibility rules and the submission window doesn't change for next year and if the challenge is still happening, would I be eligible in the following scenario -
I graduated from an American University for my undergraduate in December 2025, and the submission is in February 2026, according to "Be enrolled in, or have graduated within the last 90 days from, an accredited academic institution or official homeschool equivalent, or an Apple Developer Academy", am I eligible.
I am not sure if it applies to university or just high school. If you don't want to answer the hypothetical answer for next year. Take this scanerio, would I have been eligible for this year's challenge if I had graduated from university in December 2024.
Thank you
Hi,
Visual Intelligence doesn't work for my screenshot.
Does anyone know why? I'm in Greece, maybe it's the region, or something to set up?
Thanks

Hi,
I want to write a workflow in XCode cloud which will perform analysis on the PRs. PRs will be dynamic, so my workflow must get the name of branch from the PR and perform sonar analysis on it. It must check the unit tests coverage on new lines. The scope of the workflow will be only inside the PR not on the complete develop branch.
I upgraded my macOS to 13.7.5 and since then I cannot open Adobe InDesing on my iMac.
I contacted Adobe Support to assist with the issue and they couldn't find any solution from their side. Probably the update is not compatible?
Is there a way I can solve this issue? Or remove the beta version from my system?
