Please make sure this feature gets placed back. Parents need a way to provide the ability for kids to watch and not watch at their discretion. The new system doesn’t allow this to happen. Are there any workarounds?

Hello there I’m on public beta 1 and wanna update now to the public beta 2 but the beta doesn’t show up the dev 5 is showing up but the public 2 not why or what can I do

Hi, Having a weird issue that I’m noticing on Apple TVs with some apps that are by the same company. I think it’s storing residual user data if if you delete the app and all other apps relating to this. I have even tried deleting every app and reinstalling but we found two apps to be still logged in. Seams like a sandboxing bug and I presume it’s to do with App data stored in the shared app groups. I can only reset the apple tv to remove the user data. The two apps we can see are being persistent is Binge and Kayo by streamotion. We have tried problem solving this in every way imaginable but it’s Interesting that this is allowed to happen on an Apple platform. There is no active user logged into the apple TV with an Apple ID either

I usually connect my iPad Pro M1 to an external monitor via the USB-C port without any issues. However, after updating to iPadOS 26 Beta 5 and now Beta 6, the connection no longer works. To troubleshoot, I tested other devices and setups: Tried connecting a wireless mouse via a 2.4GHz USB receiver - no response. Tried connecting the iPad to my MacBook via USB-C to USB-C cable - not recognized. Both the external monitor and mouse still work perfectly with my MacBook Air (macOS 18.6). This leads me to believe there may be a problem with the iPad’s USB-C data transfer functionality. I’ve checked the iPadOS 26 Beta Release Notes and found no mention of this issue. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Has Apple acknowledged it or provided any updates? Thanks for your help!

An error occurred while checking for a software update after the iOS 26 update. Is anyone else facing a similar issue?

Hi developer's community. So i got my app on playstore already on trying to come on Appstore and it got flagged for copycat / Design Voilation. I reached out to the review team and i got this screenshot added below , any help ? We have our app running on playstore

My imessage has been acting up for 1 month now. It fails to activate my phone number and prefers my email. This is a beta issue Apple support has told me and it needs fixing asap.

VPN apps won't work for the iOS 26 beta. It wouldnt add the configuration and instead lead me to Settings where you MANUALLY add the vpn configurations. It won't save by itself. Please fix this problem as VPN's are really important. Thank you.

Since updating to iOS 26, audio recordings made through apps like Snapchat and Instagram sound broken, saccaded and choppy. The issue happens with or without headphones. It feels like the microphone is either misused or filtered too aggressively by the app, leading to a stuttering or “cut-off” effect during speech. This doesn’t happen when recording audio in the Voice Memos app or the Camera app — only in social media apps.

I successfully installed macOS Tahoe 26 in June on a separate external partition. Now I want to update to beta 5, but when the Mac restarts to install the update, it shows the progress indicator for a minute or two, then boots again into the main partition which has macOS 15.6. Am I required to install it from scratch?

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

Through IOS 26 public beta 5, the “use as ringtone” option will freeze the Music app, which must be closed and restarted. Is this capability supposed to apply to songs in Apple Music or only for MP3 WMA music files in the files app? If it is only applicable to music files and not Apple Music, then it should not appear as an option in the share menu of an apple song. I have a 15 pro.

There seems to be a broken USB sync and Finder recognition issue. Is there a fix to this?

Currently running 15.5 Beta 3 on a Mac Studio M4. I am unable to read/write to my Home folder from most of my applications. I receive an error basically saying I do not have access rights to the file/folder. If I go to the file directly and open it, it works. I have repaired disk permissions, checked the Sharing & Permissions settings via Get Info, and finally called Apple. Of course, since I am running the beta, the support was quite limited. I will add that I am also unable to open .dmgs that have been downloaded to my Downloads folder. I receive the "The disk image couldn’t be opened. The operation couldn’t be completed. Operation not permitted" error. If I copy the .dmg to another drive, I can open it from there.

It works if Bluetooth is on for a long time, is there any problem? I'm developing an app using beacon and Bluetooth, and I have to operate the app in the background, and after spending the weekend, I have to detect the beacon and revive the app. I can see that there is an app in the background, but the app is not coming back to life. How can I solve this problem? Or is the OS team working on something to block it? The test model is Iphone16Plus.

我的app在visionos 26之前版本都没问题，在visionos 26.0 beta4回偶现崩溃，崩溃日志如下，请帮忙查看一下是什么原因。 ![]("https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/9ee5076b-4d44-46d5-b2d9-75990472f28e" title=5061754296104_.pic.jpg;width=1226;height=314") 2025-08-03_02-39-54.3821_+0800-dc8d3e0ef19b8fdf238a633f27d2d7e744fc3715.crash 2025-08-03_02-38-59.0434_+0800-d409b5d648e89b1cd4ecc176f4f53facec65441c.crash

I installed the new developer beta 26 yesterday, but since that I only have problems with my iPhone. 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 am running iOS 18.5 beta 3 (iPhone 16 pro max) and my phone will not connect wirelessly to any of my vehicles. When connected via the apple certified usb-c cord, it will connect just fine. I have removed all vehicles from my phone, then removed my phone from both vehicle, reconnected, and it still will not connect wirelessly.

Installed the iOS 26 Beta on my iPhone 13 Pro last night, hated it. I wasn't aware that there is a supported way of restoring back to iOS18.5, so I (foolishly) opted to flash the iOS18.5 ispw file onto my device using a 3rd party tool. Now, my device is stuck in a state between. Unable to flash, unable to use itunes to restore, randomly gives error codes during restoration attempts. Worries my device may be lost permanently! Please advise.

I 'upgraded' to Tahoe 26.0 public beta & since then my contacts will not synch to the iCloud. All other synching functions (eg. calendar, reminders messages, notes etc.) are fine. Have tried a bunch of different ways to restore this, but so far I haven't been successful. Anyone else have this issue & better still, were able to fix it? Or do I simply need to be patient & wait for the next public beta release?
